pm has been sent out to most past players, including you mfc... we will need robbo24 to round up scotty + tom + cribbes... the following past players are not on site, so if anyone knows how to get them the message, please do... ben, matt, nick, leedsy, weatherman, and riv.

"Rollo, have you sent an email around to the others who have played in the other games?" it's on the list for tonight, oxxx...

well done, people... I will be happy to spruik on demonology, mfc, but I don't have any skills as coach... we may be able to persuade whispering jack...

"I'd be in" PEOPLE, PEOPLE !!.... hards is unavailable, and wise monkey (his annointed successor) is o/seas until November... somebody (not me owing to work commitments) has to start posting a potential team with positions displayed in the post... I have a hard-copy record of every poster who has ever played in these matches... if somebody (mfc ??) will start the "positions" post, I will email the past players and we will take it from there... if nobody takes responsibility for the "positions" post, I suggest we pass and wait for wise monkey to return in November...

my computer says "error number 350"... as I have not quite mastered errors number 1-349... SOMEBODY HELP !! NOW !!

"just wondering about the skill level of these matches?" I posted my thoughts on the standard on the sister thread on demonology... others may disagree...

"You have beaten us both times we have played so its payback time"... hey, HD... we have lost hards, our captain/coach... and wise monkey is his annointed successor (puffs of smoke did come out of the chimney)... so I don't think we can make it for October 21, but I will be guided by the players... (I only come to barrack and drink beer)... I agree it's time you guys held up the "big carl" trophy, but you will have to earn it !!

"hopefully the guys from Demonology can join in the fun too no matter what their age is" lots of gals on demonology, too, mfc...(oops)... :angry: what news from your mates on the hawks forum ??

hey, mfc... your sister thread on demonology is creating more than the usual interest... I wonder if the demographics of the site are changing with the new format (ie younger members coming on board)...

"I have no idea whether Mighty Hawks would be keen still or not..." can't see any harm in you approaching them again, mfc... I would wait, as I said above, but it's up to you...

I notice hards is reading the thread... hards, what about nominating mfc (or some other poster) as your successor to have the final word on who we play and when we play ?? I am happy to assist with the organisation, as always...

"Is it too early to bring back this thread....??" after the finals might be better, mfc... couln't think the hawks' forum would be interested until their team has run its finals race... B)

"just PM me hards and i'll be more than happy to take over the cup, im clearing space on the mantle as we speak"... sorry for the delayed response... have been working down in melbourne, and stayed for last night's game... hards, cactus... I thoroughly approve of these arrangements...

"Duties such as what? And where will it be held?" well, AKA, there are no public toilets, so the carrying of chamber pots is envisaged... we have only played at glenferrie oval so far, but worse venues can be imagined...

"drinking beer IS one thing i can do" hey, AKA... your name has been recorded... I hope you do not regret this decision, since there are duties to be performed before the drinking begins...

"I am too heavy a smoker to play footy..." hey, AKA... we also need organisers and helpers... (dare I mention goal umpires ??)... to qualify you need to be able to sit and watch, and drink large amounts of beer after the game...

you won't be able to keep me away, wise one... it is true that most of the players come from demonland, but demonology is represented as well... hards, haven't heard from you re the "big carl" trophy !!??

"Count me in..." recorded, coxy... although you should be warned that people who can play are somewhat targeted by the opposition...

hey, hards... I just posted you a song... on the sister thread on demonology...

demons 32 and bWell... I have recorded your site names and you will get an invite by pm when the next game comes up...

"I am stepping down..." you will be missed, rob... keeping your troops standing in the sun at the breaks between quarters in the first game looked like a bad decision, but it turned out to be a stroke of genius... a good captain/coach is worth a lot... good luck, mate... two games against the sainters for two wins is a great record... second your nomination of the wise one as your replacement, especially if he keeps turning up to games with such good-looking groupies... this may also provoke whispering jack into keeping his promises to turn up to coach !! p.s. if you want me to take care of the "big carl" trophy while you are away, send me a pm and I will arrange to collect it from you... cheers, rollo.

if you look at their forum, the hawkers have cancelled... because they cannot raise a team... the off-season looks like the time to try again...

"Rollo....the Hawks have responded" hey, mfc... I have posted on the hawks forum, and asked them to send me an email (or, better, post on here) if they think they can get the numbers...

"Still no word from mighty hawks...." may be time to let it go, mfc... at least then you can stop writing "mighty hawks"...
