I suspect that the other clubs might warm to this if they see some talent at the Under 18 championships (which continue today) and who fit in the mini draft category. Based on the form of Jaeger O'Meara at the Suns, to a lesser extent Brad Crouch at Adelaide and the tantalising prospects of Jack Martin and Jesse Hogan, we can expect some clubs preferring to wait a year for a sure fire talent and trade combinations of picks and players to get them. Apologies in advance for not bringing up the banana theme but I have yet to check the Queensland lists for any up and coming young bananabenders whose families breed alpacas.

Thanks all for your good wishes. That makes 6 grandkids. Three girls and three boys, the CHF, ruckman and now, this one's going to be a wingman - a bit like Robbie Flower but better eyesight. Watch out for them in the drafts of 2022, 2024 and 2031. Oh, and he has a Demons footy by his bedside personally autographed by Mark Neeld, Tim Harrington, Don McLardy. And, unlike some at the MFC, he's never experienced a Demon defeat.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND AND THE MFC - Jasmine Garner
What about putting her on the Demonland banner - at least on the day they play.

Further to my post above from after the game: Is the AFL under threat?

Great result for the country but I wonder if the fact that we're going to Rio will have an impact on the continued existence of the AFL's western Sydney team. GWS is barely attracting an average of 10,000 and hasn't won a game this year and inevitably that must draw comparison with the Wanderers who have tasted great success and draw crowds well in excess of that figure. The Giants are like us - an embarrassment for the competition but quite correctly as a development club have drawn much less flak. With the build up to Brazil the difference between the two codes is likely to be accentuated. Another poor season in 2014 could cause some deep thought at AFL headquarters.

Left field replacement for Warner in the squad = Michael Klinger who is in England playing county cricket. A little while ago he scored back to back to tons. Also is a Demon supporter which makes him a chance

Quiet day really but things got interesting on the football front this evening when the Hawks did the job on the Blues. The result proved to me that Jeff's a lunatic. Why would you give up supporting Buddy, Roughhead and co to become President of the MFC? Surely, if he really wanted a challenge, the green pastures of GWS await him. There's a certain recruiting officer in that area who could do with some mentoring and weight loss advice.

Congratulations on getting this thread to 200 pages Redleg. As one of the moderators on Demonland, I think our decision to allow it to go beyond the second or third page would be, without doubt, the greatest blunder we've made on the site but now that the damage has been done, please continue ...

Changes passed in Parliament will make Fawad Ahmed eligible to represent the country in the Ashes series. A chance? Fly him over ASAP I say.

Let's face it, many in the media are inflicted with the same negative tunnel vision mindset that a lot of Demonland posters seem to have adopted in recent times. When it comes to anything to do with the club at the moment, they're reminiscent of the great Groucho Marx playing Professor Quincy Adams Wagstaff in the classic movie Horse Feathers:-
