Gidday guys just dropping in from Saintsational to discuss the prospect of another forum game with you guys?

Every summer a few of the clubs forums play games of footy against each other at Glenferrie Oval and we were wondering if you guys might like to be first cap off the rank?

The games are purely social event, with everyone welcome to play regardless of sex, age or ability.

They are usually 4 X 25 minute quarters and many of you im sure have played in the past.

They are great fun and represent an excellent chance for supporters to meet each other and have a kick or even just watch as we all 'attempt' to emulate our heroes.

There is also a BBQ area behind the ground and after the match we usually all get together and have a feed and a few beers and have a chat.

So if you are interested in playing, or even just coming along and helping out with goal umpiring, running water or whatever chuck your name down here, im sure someone will take control of the ball on this forum as has been done in the past, but any queries post here and I can respond.

PS...You have beaten us both times we have played so its payback time:-P

Things to bring: A dees jumper/ shirt... sunscreen and water.

The same thread will be posted at demonology also.

The proposed date is October 21...but we can push that back a week or so if more time is needed.

So if your interested chuck your name down.

Cheers,

HD

Yeah I'd like to go around for another year, but I won't be back from europe till mid-November. Any interest in pushing it back till then??

I would play but I would kick 15 goals and embarrass everyone

You mean as opposed to just yourself ;) ?!!!

Count me in for sure, I’d liken myself to a Ricky Petterd type player – got guts, shows pride in the jumper, good skills, built like a skeleton and my lungs are shot. Only difference is I have about 20% of his footballing ability…

Yeah im in 4 sure. Sounds good

"You have beaten us both times we have played so its payback time"...

hey, HD...

we have lost hards, our captain/coach...

and wise monkey is his annointed successor (puffs of smoke did come out of the chimney)...

so I don't think we can make it for October 21, but I will be guided by the players...

(I only come to barrack and drink beer)...

I agree it's time you guys held up the "big carl" trophy, but you will have to earn it !! :rolleyes:

we can push it back a week if you wish...your call, would making it the 28th help you in some way?

or would the 21st be achievable.

I'm in support of it. I really enjoyed the last one we played.... I'm no footy expert but managed to conjour up 3 majors throughout the day.

I'm happy to slot into the same position - forward pocket, and see how we go.

It would be fab if Demonology got involved too - I guess at the end of the day, that's what it's all about!

Ahk, sounds cool, hopefully I would be up to standard...

Won't be able to hang around for socialising after as I have exams around that date

Right, I've just re-scheduled my flights, I arrive home on November 14th.

I'd love nothing more then to lead the boys into battle, but if the dates don't allow such a thing, then so be it.

HD are there any openings for a game from mid-November onwards?

If there is enough support for an October game then go ahead, and we'll try for another match later in the year.

I'll watch with interest...

Hey Wise.... !! Good to hear you are on the way home! No game would be the same without ya.

I would actually like to say that we play a couple of times before the years out....

I want to play.

I played FF for years.

I'm only 22 & feel I have some left in the tank.

Happy to play FP.

Can anyone play??

Funny, I thought you were only 12.

    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

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
