Fanatique Demon

As long as Major Disappointment isn’t there.

I like the dream of Kobe Farmer coming to the Demons. But in yesterday’s hit-out he looked like an ordinary suburban player. ?

Yes, Robbie was all class and as skilful as they come. But Barassi was an inspirational player who could turn a game on his own. The epitome of G&D. I was fortunate to see them both. Barassi, followed by Flower, then I don’t really care.

ANB surprised with a couple of clever acts today.

D’acc.

None the wiser.

I don’t know what “no T$ no B$“ for this post means. And I’m not going to read through 1065 pages to find out. Can anyone help, please?

I paid for my overseas membership in October and soon after received the confirmation e-mail. However - like every other year - I am locked out of the watchafl app. I have written to them to restore access, but haven’t had a response yet. The gift pack (is there one?) hasn’t arrived. Last year they asked if I would like to forgo the gift in favour of a young supporter. I agreed and supplied my grandson’s name. But, for some silly reason, that isn’t part of the deal. They give the gift to someone of their choosing. Not a great way to bring the next génération into the Demon’s fold.

Just read the AFL article. Jones was the only one who did not achieve All-Australian status. Most of the others had multiple AA representation. Sad but true.

Jones was fantastic for us over many years. But iirc, he has never been an All-Australia. So while great for us, it shows how far we (and he) were behind the competition.

But very few of us use our real picture. Brave move, Bitter.

Agree, 58. What we’d lack in experience would be covered by speed.

Interesting, young team. But hard to imagine that five of our best 22 would be in their first or second season.

Lucky I’m too old to play. My surname has 12 letters.

I think it was suggested names AND numbers, rather than instead of numbers.

Thanks for that, Hero. Interesting reading.

Can’t sleep, Werridee? Would like to know the story behind the Werridee name.

I remember that goal. We lost the next week to Footscray (I think). We went on to win the premiership through Crompton's goal. If it weren't for Hassa's goal, we'd have missed the finals altogether.

Good. Now, if he can just learn to take the first option and to kick with his right foot. Winner.

If there's a tie, the other places slip back. E.g. First, tie for second, then it's fourth.

Thanks Dee-lusional. I figured that out just after I posted the question and my espresso kicked in. ? I hope that spells the end of references to Wagner's and Wagners'.

Would you please explain the '96ers club? I'm not familiar with that term.

Ben Silvagni was drafted on name alone. They needed more Bens.

Wow, it really doesn't pay to have a different or independent opinion, does it. Ok, so I was mistaken about Hore and Collingwood. At what stage was Hore leading the AFL intercepts makes and how many did he have compared with others?
