"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.

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    The Demons head back on the road for their fifth interstate trip this season when they head up to Brisbane to take on the Lions under lights on Friday night at the Gabba. Who comes in and who goes out?
