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!

Posted

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

Posted

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.

HD - do you really think we can get something together for October?

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

If you think you can get a side by October 28 so be it, but if ya need more time thats fine as well.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
