Does anyone know where entrance E is on brunton avenue?? I have no idea where im supposed to park...

You won't be able to park there I don't think mate. It's actually UNDER the mcg, almost beneath the bridge that leads across to Rod Laver Arena. Best bet is probably to park in that street that sort of leads down around near the practice nets for the cricketers, with all those shmick looking apartment things on it.

Lads,

There's only two days to go and I can feel the excitement building up to a crescendo as the game nears.

I've heard on the grapevine that most of you are following my training advice and not only that, but you're champing at the bit at the prospect of taking the field on Sunday against our traditional enemy.

That Big Carl Cup means a lot to me and it should mean a lot to all of you. My assistant, Redleg, was actually team manager for the great man when he coached the Demons in 1979 and he has some great stories to tell about his experience in the role (but please don't even think of mentioning the game v Fitzroy that year to him).

Anyway, I want to thank you guys for maintaining the discipline in our quest to retain the Big Carl. It's really important to me as the coach to know that you're totally dedicated to the cause and that you've made such massive sacrifices in terms of your lifestyle over the past weeks in order to be cherry ripe for this game.

As a coach I really have to feel for blokes like Worsfold who must be filled with fear and trepidation whenever they turn on the telly to watch the news knowing that one of their own players are going to be in the headlines.

No such problems with me.

You blokes have got your heads screwed on properly. You're a coaches dream and I'm sure you'll all remember those important 1% ers that help to win games: basic things like "don't forget the sunscreen, the mouthguards and the water bottles!"

Keep it up and I'll see you on Sunday when we'll be going for the ride of our lives.

Sincerely,

Your coach.

BTW, do any of you have tattoos on your midriffs?

As offered Rollo I will do something about water and such, perhaps if anyone has water bottles they could bring, it would be helpful. I don't know how people feel, but shared water at sports is not recommended by health departments and most sports administrations.

thanks, legend...

forum footy games are exempted under the health dept regs... :lol:

I hear the forecast is now 31 and late showers

It'd be a real shame if it rained. You see, I prefer an open game where I can use my superior fitness and skills to really hurt the opposition.

It just sounds to me like you're soft :lol:

Good luck for the game everyone. Do Demonland proud or we'll revoke your posting rights :P

Phew. As long as you don't revoke them. :P

Soft? Incidentally I've modelled my kicking style on TJ's... you'd be surprised how much success I've had in a short period of time, though I wouldn't dare say I've gotten myself anywhere near his level. I'd like to think that adopting his kicking style hasn't inflicted any of his less-desirable traits on me, however. Sorry TJ lovers, a cheap shot I know...

Weather to be a warm 31 with late showers, although they did say alot of cloud cover with rain later Sunday night - we should be right...

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
