GAME 18: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Yze vs Farmer
The wiz only because he was a reason to go to watch football. Yze was such a reliable presence once you were there Both deserved games without doubt

Reflections on the 2006 Elimination Final
Great Game, went with a brother in law, his first for some time in person, sat one deck up in the northern stand area, Poor bugger was not well, and kicked the bucket a short time later, so seeing this with Jacko has a special memory. He enjoyed the weekend in town and so did I. A couple of beers and a Demons win in a finals game, cheers A very good memory, something really good to recall every now and then...

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
And if we do play any more games then I hope we try Harley, it’s a non season anyway, most results will be tainted apart from our wins. So why not play him, Jones , avb and anyone else who might not be around in 2021.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Yes you are probably correct poor flying times to get there, last game of a defunct round, all the uncertainty. why get invested in the game! unfortunately I had hoped for a strong response from about Christmas and was a little disappointed!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
While extremely disappointed, with the result, I was mostly disappointed with the way we sent the football into the F 50. Or how uncoordinated our forwards were, in relation to the ball carries coming down the ground. All we seemed to do was blast it high and long towards the goal area and the eagles raffled it and sent it back. Given that, the balance of the side did well for most of the game, some wins some losses, the forwards or more particularly the method of entry into the F 50, a few wins more losses. That has not changed for yonks, I go to a match and have no idea who will kick the goals for us, it seems futile some times....

If you know these two either could have played and only they would have known who was there, identical. I was once snubbed by Henry by not speaking to me at the cricket, except of course it was Michael and I had not met Michael. I think I kept that "grudge" for 6 months, Will not forget that time, cos i knew they were twins. long time ago now.

How about Henry Ritterman, late 60’s or early 70’s Rover also with Ajax but still follows Melbourne, and Dave Kelly. His name I think. Ruckman played about only small number of games about 1973.

Can members expect to get a refund?
I will not be after a refund, too many years nil return anyway, what I would like returned is my respect of the players, once they win some games. and give value to us supporters that become members for years in a row. and some recognition from the club ( not personal) to the members for their support. What that might be I have nfi. this virus has shot 2020 down in flames, at least no one will forget this year, I am becoming jaded and bored ! still I can look down and see my feet, stay well

Nicknames to fill in time
Anyone who kicks the winning goal in a GF is a hero and legend. Strawbs Tulip and The Ox and Hassa was not his real name

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Come on you cannot blame Goodwin, he didn't kick it to their backmen in our forward line, In fact he Goodwin didn't get a kick. He had no influence.....and no idea......but then neither do eye. was looking forward to this game now i need a break, or a mexican beer! how do I cancel the automatic renewal !

POSTGAME: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Think you are wrong about Omac, but he is a one paced player and when the better players are having their pants pulled down he gets the blame.
-
