PREGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I saw it today. Mainly newly laid turf. ? transfer game to the scene of our ‘87 triumph, the Western Oval?……..surely not! -
I noticed in an email that Penfolds has joined MFC as a sponsor. I tried to investigate the MFC to see what are the terms of this deal, and also whether their were benefits for MFC Members. I could find NO mention of Penfolds on the MFC website. Perhaps I missed it. Couldn't find anything on Demonland, either. So I tried googling MFC/Penfolds and found MFC Members can get a significant discount by using the promo code "MELBOURNE". ( about 18% on certain bundles). Why has there been so little publicity for such a prominent and desirable sponsor? Also ,didn't we have another wine company sponsor recently.? I presume this supersedes them. Surely we should be delighted to have Penfolds on board, and do everything possible to nurture, and perhaps upgrade the association in the future. I just checked again, and found that Penfolds ARE listed with the official partners. So the above is not correct, but I still think a little more exposure would be advisable.

Welcome to Demonland Will Verrall
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Whispering_Jack's topic in Melbourne Demons
He turns 19 in a couple of weeks....so that might be one reason why his physical development is quite advanced. (compared to the recruits who have just turned 18) -
TRAINING: Saturday 11th February 2023
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Another interesting revelation at the training/sponsor function was that Joel Smith is going to play forward this season. A pretty hard forward line to fit into. Also , Choco said he has taken over as goal-kicking coach. I’m surprised he wasn’t that before…..but it’d be great if he makes a difference to that facet of our game. -
Perhaps they all tried tunnel-ball (like Jack F!??!!)

This is killing me! I really want to know the answer. ???something to do with their first games? Or first season. ??something about Finals? I don't think it's to do with their numbers. Perhaps their playing positions?? AAARGH!!! I can't bear it....but I'll keep thinking!

Nathan Brown exuded sheer guts. I was full of admiration. I think he missed the Bluey by one vote . ? to Jeff White -
Flight probably cancelled on the way there,then delayed 3 hours on the way back.

GAMEDAY: AFLW GRAND FINAL
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in AFL National Women's League
Brisbane were given a dream start by the umps, with repeated mysterious frees bringing the ball to their forward line. Later, I felt that the rundown tackle on (?) Fitzsimmons in the goal square was either a trip or a push in the back. She managed to get a foot to the ball before it bounced, but the ump couldn't see that so paid holding the ball. Also the pass by West to (?) Fitzy again which was called not 15 metres was a bit rough.It would have been a fairly easy shot for goal. We could have beaten 'em 4 goals to nil! Someone must have alerted the umps at three quarter time that t hey were giving the Dees a rough trot, and they gave us an armchair ride in Q4! -

I thought Lauren Pearce did a great job in the ruck, and should be included in the best players. -
Goodwin Scores @ the World Cup
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonsone's topic in Melbourne Demons
Is Craig Goodwin related to Simon? They’re both from Adelaide. -
Does anyone know?

AFLW: PF vs North Melbourne
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in AFL National Women's League
I was at the game, and it was VERY windy, affecting the standard greatly. So Dees fans shouldn't be too worried about the low standard footy leading into the GF. I have since watched the replay on TV , and it' s not nearly as obvious on TV how difficult the conditions were. Also, i was surprised when one commentator said that North would have the wind in Q4. I'm dead sure it was easier kicking to the Royal Parade end. -
AFLW: 2022 GRAND FINAL
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in AFL National Women's League
I am surprised Gillard wasn't mentioned in our best players. I thought she repelled many attacks. -
Heard Roamin Brian picked a Dees team...
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Timothy Reddan-A'Blew's topic in Melbourne Demons
Norm Smith must be chuffed to be on the interchange with those champs! -
I've forgotten whether it has been mentioned in this thread, but a common fault which crops up repeatedly is the following..... "I can't underestimate his value to the team". Really one can't OVERestimate his value to the team, if you think he's really good! He must be useless if you can't UNDERestimate his value! Have other pedants noticed this?

Adam Tomlinson on the move?
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
I think that Tomlinson was best in the AFL stat for "one on ones" when he did his ACL in 2021.
