Vafa ground Elsternwick park is under utilised. Umpires train there during the season and they host a game of the week for vafa. I have been saying for years we should look at it. Big ground. Near tram train and bus and plenty of parking. Near end of chapel street as well. The old Elsternwick bowls club next door ripe for a demons happy hour after a 4pm training. We will always have Memories of junction oval training in 1989 I guess

Im hearing Ooze and Choco assisting.

Id give 6 to Harry petty. but yes maybe..

No 2? 6? 12? 26? 19?

I need to ask my annual question. Define quick and fast ball movement please.

I got really excited when i saw Demonlandy had posted something in this thread. I need to settle into another marathon day.

Melksham very clean. BOG for me

Salem has had 2 good years. before that he had potential. He is now slow, but will he stay slow? Debatable. The Coaching group played him all year when there were obviously better choices. So was he injured? The coaches said he was ok to play, but Im sure now they will say "he said he was right to go". Very unfair to Salem whom would only do as asked. My point is that it is only unfair to put him up on the block if the coaching group sticks with he was good to go. The player tries his best but the unflinching coach picks the team. The coach I believe played a player all year when he should have been rested. But the motto of the year was play through the pain. How did that go for us? Goody needs to answer a few questions, in my book.

Its a shame Bowey didnt play much more. So much better watching him today than Salem for the last 2 months.

Just to be clear, TMac and Lever didnt train at all? Or did they join late?

We found with Preuss it just isnt worth chasing a ruck that is not close to best 22 when all are available. If we are going to get a 24 year old ruck he must be a positive in conjunction with Max, not just as a stand by.

Im surprised that this keeps coming up. Bomber Thompson was never Bomba. Ken Sheldon the St Kilda coach was called BomBa because he looked exactly like Bomba the Jungle boy. Sheldon looked like the actor who played Boy, the adopted son of Tarzan in eight Tarzan movies, as well as his role as Bomba the Jungle Boy in a dozen B-Movies. They'd show these sometimes on Saturday afternoons. He was a big hit in the early 60's to kids and IRWC it was Lou Richards who coined it. But its not that long into the past for this to be mistaken so regularly.

McDonald is set to play VFL during the AFL's pre-finals bye, which could open the window for him to feature in the first week of senior finals. “As we sit here now, based on the way he (McDonald) is tracking, he’ll play next week,” Richardson confirmed. “We’re hopeful given the training he’s been doing, we’d be looking at him playing significant minutes next week.” There used to be rules about who can play finals in VFL if you hadnt played during Home and Away. Anyone know if this is still an issue for Tom?

Right at the end of the clip at the 4:18 mark, check the dial on Big Benny Brown. Pretty awesome but funny.

Good on you Kev

Sean Darcy from Freo is from Cobden Victoria

Tony Leonard is under the radar as a commentator. Great interviewer as well. Laughed at the LJ Thin Lizzy reference.

Bang, Bang bang bang....BANG

Tomlinson and Harmes out. Lever In. That increases our I.Q. Tomlinsons weak efforts last week lost us that game. His cards should be marked. Harmes is just random too often.

Brayshaw staying with Demons

I dont know how anyone would really know how or if the player made any impact on the trade details.

Ive not seen a more compelling case for being dropped, than Tomlinson's game on Saturday. Id not play him again.

Port are choking

Stanley subbed off. Knee issue!

Geelong getting Reamed by umpires. This is fantastic!
