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?

    Will Demonology participate too?

    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

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
