GAME 16: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Wight vs Whelan
Whelan for me. One of my favorite players. The old saying of guts and determination personified Whelan. It was rare that you saw him being beaten. My all time favorite back pocket player. Wight was a great player as well so again not an easy decision but he did have that "Frost" element about him.

GAME 15: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Schwarz vs Stretch
Yes the Ox for me as well. One of the most talented players we have had. Stretch was a great player as well. We have had some good wingman over the years with Flower, Tingay. Johnstone and Alves. Stretch is up there with them.

GAME 13: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Neitz vs Grinter
Balls was one of my favorite players ever so hard to tip against him but Nietz is Nietz.

Best Interstate Recruits - since 1970
My mistake. You are right about Matt but his tenure was no where near as long but from memory he had a really good couple of years.

Best Interstate Recruits - since 1970
Johnson, Jakovich and Whelan. My best 3. Another glaring ommision is the Febeys.

GAME 8: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Davey vs Febey
Agreed. I actually put febey well in front but I have a liking for solid defenders and febey was one of those.

GAME 7: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Viney vs Johnson
I have to say Johnson. He was one the best players to wear a demons jumper. I remember him playing at Vic park in round 1 ( I am sure it was his first game ) and was sold on him immediately. Todd was a great player and an excellent captain.

tough one. Jakovich for mine .

GAME 4: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Farmer vs Lovett
Voted for farmer but glenn lovett was one of the most talented demon players I have seen. Hamstring curses again.

GAME 3: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Yze vs Johnstone
I put Johnstone becaause he was a heavily tagged player. Yze was more cream on the pie.

Can anyone help identify any of these players?
This one has me stumped. I am sure that is not Seecamp. Wasn't he a bit later than Barrasi years ?

Top 20 Demons 1987-2020
Nietz is my number 1. On pure talent I would have Jakovich and schwarz as our 2 best but injuries ruined them. When it comes to a bloke willing to sacrifice everything them Stynes.

Exactly. Or that it mutates into a different form of virus ( like spanish flu did ) and is much worse.

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
This talk of merging is totally gross. And especially with Carlton who as far as I am concerned can merge with the filth.

Jack Viney for Captain
Max has been captain for 1 game and there is this thread. Silly.

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Poor decision making. Poor kicking skills. Poor handballing. 2019 all over again. The only thing I will say is that the game meant nothing.

Coronavirus: AFL & MFC
You can add the Chinese govt to that list. They were meant to shut down the wet markets after sars and now tried to keep quiet about the coronavirus so as not to lose face. Well thay have now really lost it.
