"i still havent heard from them....

they must not like new people on their forum huh?"

hey, cactus...

I received an email from them saying that my "account" has to be activated by an administrator...

it does seem like an unnecessarily long process...

although it might stop trolls who want to post in the heat of the moment... :unsure:

GO DEES!!!"

glad you made it to the game today, cactus...

I was working all day, and the best part was to be greeted on arriving home with mrs.rollo beaming "guess what ??"...

and guess what, I didn't guess, but she told me eventually...

go the mighty dees !! :rolleyes:

I sent a PM to one of the guys who said he would contact one of his guys to organise.

I've left my email address with him too. Will keep you posted.

"will be in touch shortly"

good work, mfc... :rolleyes:

Apparently the guy who PM'd me is switched on and according to my source at Mighty Hawks, he'll come through with the goods.

When he gets back to me, I'll make sure he reaches you and Hards.

Rollo, I guess the best we can do is wait and see what "Cryptkeeper" comes back with.

Worse case scenario is we wait till the off season. Otherwise, we stand a chance to have a hitout in the next month or two.

Let's leave it up to them and see what they come back with in their approach....?? what do you think?

"Still no word from mighty hawks...."

may be time to let it go, mfc...

at least then you can stop writing "mighty hawks"... :blink:

Rollo!

Where have you been lately?

Long time no hear.

I hope you caught up with and enjoyed the Professor's article on the # 3 at Melbourne which of course included the one and only and the great Trevor Rollinson.

If we can't organise a game v the Hawks then let's at least see if we can organise a repeat of the supporters get together that we had at Leigh Oak or something similar later this year?

Cheers

Rollo....the Hawks have responded with this:

All right. Our social game of footy is starting to take shape.

We have a ground - Victoria Road Reserve, East Hawthorn.

Unofficially, it is not available. However, the team that is authorised to use the ground on Saturday afternoon is playing away that weekend and as far as anyone can tell me, it is not available.

There are no fines for unauthorised use of the ground, according to a council officer I spoke to.

There is no cost to use the ground on this basis.

The ground is smallish, so we may play with no wings, have a bigger bench and look to play 15-20 minute quarters with good rotations for those concerned about fitness.

We have a date - 7 July 2007, 2.00pm.

We have jumpers - everyone supplies their own Hawthorn Jumper. I trust everyone has one.

We do NOT have an opponent.

Although approaches are being made to melbournefc to see if they can get a team up from Demonland.

We do NOT have an umpire

Although the Cryptkeeper has a contact who is an experienced country umpire. We would need to pay him, so there will be a nominal charge per head.

We do NOT have a team

So if you are interested, PM me your name, approximate height and weight, football experience and preferred position and we will see what we can put together.

I will list those who confirm they can play here as I get responses and start to put together a team. I recommend we have a training session or two between now and then.

Rollo, person called Kon Khan posted this on Friday....do you want to make contact? Does this even suit Demonlanders?

"Not sure about Huddo on Biffo...."

well, youngster....

hudson AVERAGED over 5 goals per match over a long career...

the BEST he ever managed against ray biffin was 4...

the BEST he ever managed against biff when rollinson was playing back pocket was 3...

p.s. nobody ever called ray biffin "biffo"....

Did Ray Biffin play full back against Peter Hudson in the first round of 1972 when Hudson did his knee? Huddo was on fire with eight goals up to half time.

FWIW, Peter McKenna used to give Biffin a bit of trouble.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
