with the blessing of the leadership group, and the agreement of saintsational, we have decided on Sunday, February 17 at 1.30pm...

could somebody (hards ??) post the team (so far) on this thread, using the information on the previous thread...

I volunteer again as an after-match function organiser...

this time, we need to supply a goal and a boundary umpire if we can...

additional players, helpers etc, please post early...

    well done, guys...

    and thanks to hards, who has volunteered to display the team positions as we get more responses...

    hards also nominates wise monkey as captain, and I second the nomination...

    at this stage, we are looking at redleg as coach and wise as captain for february 17...

    Put me down, thanks. (forward pocket or full-forward) :)

    I will ask around, friends etc who want to play or help out. I'm sure they will ask where we will play, do we have a confirmed venue yet?

    I did notice Gosch's Park was mentioned....this wouldn't be such a bad idea. Would the council need to be asked?

    Thought I would copy the same template into this thread as I used last time to help get the ball rolling....

    thanks, mfc...

    I asked hards to pen the team positions on this thread, because I thought you were going to be away this month...

    I've put up the template last used for us. I will be away but will access email and internet etc, still will be contactable.

    Will Demonology participate too?

    there are more players' names on the previous thread, including the elusive doggo24...

    I have just about finished the hand-written copy of our resouces project, and will try over the next few weeks or so to put it into computer-friendly mode for you, wise, hards, redleg and Whispering Jack...

    Half forward flank please

    I'm most certainly there!

    I look forward to it - however the sight of Glenferrie oval today looks slightly frightening!

    Wing was always my position - however I'm sure there will be more impressive players here to take that possy off me...!

  • Quote

    I wanted a spot on the half forward flank too, but that's gone, might as well take one on the wing B)

    What is the standard like in these matches?

    vfl standard

    WHAT! I'm hardly VFL standard! lol :lol:

    It's more.... social meets a few....very few handful of VFL standard!

    i will be basking in the never-ending sun of thailand during february, so cannot make it. Hopefully Wise Monkey can instill some more cohesion into our victorious unit.

    I'm there! Definitely...

    Unfortunately though, i'm not as fit as i was last time i played... I'm a lot "bigger" these days... (i.e fatter, lol), so a Key Posi spot is the go. Full-Forward would be ideal. I have experience playing there in the past, pretty good height (188cm), and can take a decent grab overhead.

    Also, i'll see if i can get a couple of mates down who played in the same match a couple of years ago (Matt and Benn). I'll come back here to confirm they're in when i know.

    Cheers,

    Chris

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
