    Now, I ask you in all seriousness: if Kozzie’s heart is elsewhere would the toy In Bellanie’s cot be there? Methinks not. šŸ˜… It’s a DA tradition… our awesome resident knitter buys a big stuffed toy and knits a guernsey with the player’s number on the back. It’s given to the player in question just before or just after the birth. And I have the job of courier 🄰
  2. I’ll PM you when I’ve spoken to my bestie. 😊
  3. Ima get Forever Demons a custom spreadsheet. šŸ‘šŸ½
  4. My DA bestie is the Spreadsheet Queen. I’ll ask her to create one for you, FD. Just you and your two nurses, so three all up?
  5. I don’t think so. The friends who are usually at Casey training aren’t there today.
  6. I have no idea what you’re talking about.

    Let’s just say we were surprised the kid isn’t a ranga.
  8. Yes Tommo has signed with North’s VFL side. Which brings up yet another opportunity to remind folks that Casey will be playing North in a practice match following our Seniors’ practice match at Arden St. on Saturday Feb. 22nd, the VFL match to commence at 2pm. If you’re planning on attending, would be great to stay around for the second match to give our Casey boys some love. ā¤ļøšŸ’™
  9. Oh ok. Sorry for confusing things. 😊
  10. I’ve mentioned it elsewhere on here but following our praccy vs North at Arden St. on Saturday Feb 22nd there’ll be a second match: a Casey praccy vs North VFL beginning at 2pm. Entry is free.
  11. Played 30-odd with second Club. second club not Carlton

    Oi bud, have you been reading the most recent training thread? There was a f/s prospect training with the boys. Richo told us to not say who this kid’s dad is. Folks have been throwing names out and yesterday someone actually named the right player but I can’t remember who. Since you’re the puzzle King, perhaps you’ll work it out. He played 100+ games for us and 30-something games with his second club. End of clues. See? It sucks when a puzzle-setter is a tight-arze with clues, huh. šŸ˜œšŸ˜šŸ˜˜
  13. All nope. Someone has already mentioned the player but I can’t remember who it was. This stupid sworn to secrecy thing is annoying. Come on @Demonstone, you’ll work out who it is. šŸ‘šŸ½
  14. Tommo has signed with North Melbourne VFL. We may well see him play vs Casey at Arden St. in a practice match following our AFL practice match on Saturday February the 22nd.
  15. Just wanted to mention that following our practice match vs North at Arden St. at 11am on Saturday February 22nd there’ll be another practice match - Casey vs North VFL beginning at 2pm.
  16. I understand the importance now, thanks to the clear explanations, but I agree with SWYL in that no club playing practice matches would be ideal.
  17. I’ve always been of the opinion that practice matches aren’t worth the risk of injury in a game that isn’t worth four points. I put this to Richo yesterday and he was adamant they’re of huge importance. He said, ā€œImagine this…Round One we play GWS, right? Our boys run out having played no practice matches. Their players run out with two practice matches under their belt. They’ll beat us by 10 goals, guaranteed.ā€ It made sense at the time but later I was thinking about it and I wondered (and still wonder) why intraclub matches can’t be played instead of practice matches. Wouldn’t the same results be achieved?
  18. Never thought of that possibility 😬
  19. Years ago someone wrote into the Footy Show’s Sam’s Mailbag segment asking if Dickfos was any relation to Michael Voss šŸ˜… Fun Fact: the bearer of our biggest flag in the cheer squad, a crazy passionate Dees diehard named Dylan Sidebottom is a cousin of Steele’s. And another very involved cheer squad member has a mother-in-law named Shaz and she’s the leader of the Bulldogs cheer squad. Too much sleeping with the enemy for mine. 🤣
  20. I was babysitting my friend’s 4yo boy and we were flicking through a footy mag and he pointed to a pic of Nic Naitanui and said, ā€œwho’s that?ā€ I said, ā€œThat’s Nic Naitanui.ā€ He looked puzzled, took another look at the pic then asked, ā€œbut where’s Nat and Nui?ā€ šŸ˜…
  21. Where’s @Demonstone when we need him?
  22. Yes but played 100+ games for us and only 30-odd for his second club.
  23. I think you’re right about that on both counts. It could also be that Richo is the biggest pizz-taker in the world. After all, he did once tell me to go on Demonland and tell everyone that Vines was crook in the stomach because he’d eaten a prawn despite knowing its poop-shute hadn’t been removed, which wasn’t true. I can’t trust a word he says šŸ˜…
  24. It may well be some sort of training award except it was at the beginning of the session, not the end. I was tasked by another track-watcher/Demonlander (he knows who he is 😁) with finding out what the adulation was for. I forgot about it and when I went to leave, Salo was the only person still there so I asked him. He said he didn’t know what it was all about coz he wasn’t paying attention coz he was still half asleep and if I found out could I please tell him šŸ˜
