I may as well be. 

 

Anyways, you didn’t answer my questions. 

I have been a Demon since 1969

An MCC Member since 1992

MFC Member since 2000

I told you of serious problems last year, which you chose not to believe 

I am waiting to see change inside the walls of The MFC

I think if we had our 2023 form in this year we would have smoked the comp outside of Sydney. 
Unfortunately we have had the year from hell and still somehow almost made finals and lost so many close games.
Really only 3-4 games were not acceptable.  The extra month off will do us good, get everyone healthy and well rested. 
We bounce back next year and make top 4.

“… we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, We shall never surrender

This is how I read every post of yours. Not everything you say needs to sound so profound. Geez Louise, relax a little, bro. 😅

I don’t know why you have to (yet again) remind everyone of how long you’ve held memberships. Do you feel this gives your opinions more credence?

Here's what the numbers tell us (so far)

Optimists 52.63% (1-3 years)

Pessimists 39.47% (7-10+ years)

Realists 7.90% (4-5 years) 

That's about the usual type ratio on Demonland

The Pessimists vs the Optimists with the realists rarely heard from

My guess is 3 to 5 years

After some Deep Thought 4 to 2 years.

The club is run well these days. 100% better than 10 years ago

I don't think we'll have to wait another 6 decades

I'm confident we can win one in the next 15-20 years but it's impossible to say at what point

Life on Earth is expected to die in 1.3 billion years. Better win one before then.

If you are referring to the collision with Andromeda, that's about 5B. years.

I think the balance of the list is off and would expect a pretty steady decline from May/Gawn/Viney.

Guess I am a pessimist

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
