  1. i wouldn't kick it to morton if he was 50 metres on his own. he puts a blow torch to the ball every time he eventually decides to kick it. waste of a pick 4. should have got palmer. never pick players that are in between hieghts (190-192). versatility is over-rated, i prefer specialty in one position

    Morton has a lot of potential and i hope you live to regret this statenent which i am sure you will. Sick of reading negative crap like this on here. Grow up

  2. Thanks to everyone who came along on Friday night. It was a fun night. Of course it would have been great to have more people there but given the event was organised within 9 days, it wasn't too bad.

    There are plans to have another function this year. The Mini Ox Squad as we like to call ourselves will be organising this. Stay tuned.

    Thanks again everyone. Go you Demons!

    Well Keep me posted on any events. I had a great time & i think the St.kilda bowls club is a great place to have it.

  3. The other interesting thing is in fact quite a worrying thing that I know Jim has made a priority, and that is that we are quite high up relatively speaking on adults, yet near the bottom all up. This obviously suggests an alarmingly low number of kids, which augurs badly for the future. I think it's quite obvious from this that youth has to be a priority. Explains the Casey Fields undertaking as well.

    When Melbourne starts winning games regulairly Kids will come on board. Gimmicks will only keep kids interested for a certain time. Melbourne have a low child membership because our trophy cupboard is empty. I almost jumpred back in the seventies simply because i got tired of being stirred up & ridiculled, it was tough, and yhat was almost 30 years ago-and still we are winless. If jim and the board can sort things out i am confident that kids will return.

  4. thats my point

    and some would make more than 30, some would make less than 30

    the club cant keep saying, buy this for $200 to go in the chance for this

    pay $500 for this

    if people are persued to pay a little bit everynow and then, it all adds up fast

    what if i kid put in a dollar of his pocket money once a month

    he would earn 10 dollars for the club...if 10 kids did this, thats $100

    that may not sound like a lot but its more than the cost of buying two MFC/MCC joint memberships

    We need to organize small events regulairly-keep the money trickling in but reguliar. Much better than one big hit. More fun and more involvement.

    Back in the 80's Hawthorn had a sausage sizzle every thursday night after training. They got big numbers there and would have made some healthy bucks. Sausages, white bread and Tom sauce are not expensive.

    We got to do that sort of thing as well as the Top Dollar Stuff. So that we can all say in whatever way "We all helped win that Flag" and shall continue to help.

    Be there tomorrow night at the Bowls club

  5. You're a true demon KJ.

    For all my uni exams i did a few weeks ago I donned the 98 melbourne jumper (The one made by canterbury). It's a long sleeve and cause of those chilly mornings in the exam room, it's the only thing i'm proud to wear while keeping myself warm.

    I still wear my '87 Woollen jumper. I love it coz its the year we returned to being Dark Blue. How i hated that light blue jumper!!!!!

  6. I still can't believe this Western Sydney thing...

    The only way I can see it working is if they're a premiership threat for their first 20 years. They're going to have to offer them twice the picks the Gold Coast got to make that happen.

    I agree and this is why the whole venture must be stopped. It stinks. Why should west sydney be a premiership Favorite before Melbourne Heritage clubs? They wont care. The AFL are obsessed with money. Too much so

  7. I may be wrong there. In his interview on the news he said he turned them down as they only offered him 1 year (?????). When asked if he'll take over when they enter the AFL he said "never say never."

    A pioneer coach has never been successfull. i wouldn't touch the GC for at least 5 years if i was Voss. Who will coach that Western Sydney Durge? What a crap job!

  8. i find that hard to believe how you put maric on your list yet you leave aussie out. ffs maric hasn't even played a game! aussie has worked his ass from the rookie to be our current leading goalkicker. tell 3 other rookie list players that have done that? not saying that maric is crap but i think thats a pretty [censored] weak excuse not to have him in there. atm aussie shits all over maric

    Thankyou i am glad others agree. Austen has been the Recruit of the year thus Far.

  9. I like Wonnaemirri, Like we all do. I dont think hes really important though. He will always be an average/good player who is awesome on his day.

    Absolute Rubbish! He was our only decent player earlier this year. He was hungry for the ball and knew where to be in order to get it. You shall regret that critique in time.

  10. I have been doing this for the last few years whilst living in Adelaide and have never been more proud than the day a young boy came up to me on the train and said "My Dad barracks for the Crows and he makes me as well, but when I grow up I am going to barrack for the Demons because I like Flash & Aussie".

    The boy would've been no older than 6 and he was on his way to private school for the day.... You should've seen the smile on his face when I replied "Well this is the 2008 membership scarf and I want you to remember the day you became a true Demon supporter"..... as I put the scarf around his neck! "Keep it in your bag and put it in a safe place until you are ready to tell your Dad" I said....

    One of the greatest days of my life that was!

    Wow that's so cool, almost tear Jerking. There is still life in the demon yet. Austen has been the recruit of the year no worries

  11. Bring Back The 70's Chinamen logo i reckon or the demon found in the Twistie Packets around 70-71. I want a Demon with a Bloody Pitchfork! I am sick of all this soft KoK Business Marketing Strategy. That's the world of of that Loony Rod Butterrs.

    Just get the Demon Back

  12. How in the world are we losing so much money?

    I didn't think our debt was 3 million before this year, and i don't understand how we'll lose a further 2 million this year. It's good it's being addressed though

    Interest Repayments would have a lot to do with our debt. Just gets Bigger & Bigger. That's why we all have to continually raise money over a few years at least. This is a long termer and we must Hang in

  13. Told my Boss 20 Years ago if (when) Melbourne win the Flag it was her responsibility to fill in my leave form. 2 weeks of Hard Partying. Booze Women whatever else, I would sober up to watch a DVD of the game Sporadically.

    Probably Hire a Limo like Jeff Lebowski and drink many Beverages in the Back.

    I am sure we will all meet somewhere, but i doubt i could spell for a while so my computer skills would be very simple!

  14. We're onto it WYL. We spoke to Jimmy today, he said it was a great idea, and that he would do his best to make it.

    I also spoke to a Jennifer at the club, who is brilliant, and she' sent me a few pieces of merchandise that we can auction off.

    I'm bringing lots of little melbourne things that hopefully people would throw a couple of dollars at buying.

    We're working hard to get at least a few past players there, but it would definitely be great if we got Jim

    To get Stynesy down there would be superb. A great way for us to know exactly how to best Raise funds for the future, events like this need to be reguliar. wherever they are held. Great stuff 45.

  15. Wow for his and his families sake i hope this is true fantastic, hope he makes a full recovery what a story that would be, didnt think the media had the families best interest trying to get a quote from his mum on arrival looked like sharks trying to get ratings

    Yes the Media were disgusting at the Hospital entrance-Hang your heads in Shame. Vultures circling the dead. I worked in a newsroom and got out-i had enough of it
