TL’s 50th birthday today. 🥳

He said for his birthday he’d like to see a handheld banner that says “IN JT WE TRUST”’🤣 I said, “How about a JT giant head?” He said, “I will give you $100 to hold up a giant JT head!”

Poor JT almost passed out with shock. He thought we were being serious. His face beetrooted and he said, “Please DON’T do that!!!” And now I badly wanna do it. 😂 Except I won’t of course. However, the handheld banner is a distinct possibility.

An artists impression of what that might look like.

Are you descended from Jane Austen, WCW? Delightful turn of phrase. So much better than ‘was crook’.

Captain’s Run this morning. If there’s no other Demonlanders here, I’m happy to answer questions.

 

 

Can’t guarantee the answers will be correct though.

 

🙃

Can you please ask coaching staff to take it easy today? A light little frolic followed by an Arvo of cucumber sandwiches and some tea perhaps? Big evening tomorrow.

( Eyes on Bowey please to see if you think he will play).

Imagine if JT saw this?!?!?! I’d be banned for life from training sessions, which wouldn’t matter since apparently I don’t provide adequate training reports, do I PFence??? 😝

 Better than eyes on Bowey… I asked him! I told him thanks for letting me (and consequently all of Demonland) know last week that he’d be playing tomorrow night. He confirmed it today and even Selwyn nodded in agreement with a big cheesy grin.

Surprised and a little offended by PF’s comment, tbh ( does it show?😄). He’s never shown even the slightest disrespect for me before today. NOT surprised at the other one applauding it. The only surprise is that he didn’t ❤️ It.

Imagine the nerve of people complaining about someone providing them with free info from training that they took time out of their own lives to do. This is not @WalkingCivilWar job, she’s doing it for fun and to give something back to Demonland. 
If you don’t like the content of the thread, don’t read it. 

I swear Demonland has become a collective for complaining.

It's a captains run everybody.... sweet F all happen at these other than some running around and kicking balls.

Some of those comments about reports are embarrassing. Have a look at yourselves.

As one who prides himself on some pretty astute reporting from Casey Fields, I find your and others comments somewhat disappointing! Have a look at myself?? Indeed!

Probably a lighter than regular Captain’s Run.

The came out in training gear, ran a little, kicked a few footballs and probably tried to avoid WCW on the way back to AAMI. 
Close enough?

I must say I thought it was said in a light hearted way, given that it seems there was very little training anyway.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
