Footy Forum Match - Demonland V's Mighty Hawks

[The HuLK 139]

Lads i would love too have a ran.... Got a mate who`s pretty keen aswell.. If i can get a run, that would be great... Sounds like a hard team to get a spot!!!

[rollinson 65 181]

calm dowm, people...

only resounding silence from the hawks forum so far...

[Cactus 2]

i still havent heard from them....

they must not like new people on their forum huh?

[rollinson 65 181]

"i still havent heard from them....

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...

not to worry, im off to the game

GO DEES!!!

[rollinson 65 181]

"not to worry, im off to the game

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 !!

[rollinson 65 181]

still no luck (for me) with the hawks forum...

anybody ??

[NO MERGER 20]

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.

[NO MERGER 20]

Latest from Mighty Hawks forum is that they are working on it and will be in touch shortly.

[rollinson 65 181]

"will be in touch shortly"

good work, mfc...

[NO MERGER 20]

"will be in touch shortly"

good work, mfc...

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.

[rollinson 65 181]

hey, mfc...

I see you posted on the mh site...

I just did, too...

their numbers look a bit thin at the moment...

and I note some posters are asking for an off-season fixture...

[NO MERGER 20]

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?

[rollinson 65 181]

makes sense to me, mfc...

[demonfanjezza 1]

I personally think that this game should be left to the off season

[NO MERGER 20]

Still no word from mighty hawks....

[rollinson 65 181]

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

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

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

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?

[Hards 2]

We play Carlton on the Sunday so there's no clash with an MFC game on the 7th.

Sounds fine to me.

[Hatchman 539]

Hi guys

I registered my interest on demonology.

July 7th is not going to be good for me (new baby on the way)

If something comes up in a couple of months then that would definitely be better.

[Rhino Richards 1,467]

"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.

[rollinson 65 181]

"Rollo....the Hawks have responded"

hey, mfc...

I have posted on the hawks forum, and asked them to send me an email (or, better, post on here) if they think they can get the numbers...

[rollinson 65 181]

if you look at their forum, the hawkers have cancelled...

because they cannot raise a team...

the off-season looks like the time to try again...

[NO MERGER 20]

I guess the off season it is then....Unless another club approaches Demonland to play.
