Welcome to Demonland Koltyn Tholstrup
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm reasonably confident he ate all his crusts when he was growing up. -
Welcome Back to Demonland Marty Hore
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
I really hope you're referring to Peter Patrick Pius Paul Keenan and not having a dig at me with that post! -
Welcome Back to Demonland Marty Hore
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
Add him to the list of Melbourne players who left and subsequently returned some time later. Carl Ditterich and Gary Hardeman are on that list. Who else? (I'm ignoring WW2 which impacted on players like Bluey Truscott and maybe Jack Mueller). -
PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 27th November, 2023

Neville, maybe? -
PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 27th November, 2023
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
My big thanks to all our trackwatchers. It's so good to have you back. By the way, is Satyricon in attendance? (Saty, if you're reading this, I miss your reports, although I can understand why you may have chosen to withdraw.)- 266 replies

PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 27th November, 2023
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
The Collingwood players should enjoy Bairnsdale. It would put them close to their supporter base at the Fulham Correctional Centre. -
Hertz is the New Co-Principal Sponsor
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demon Disciple's topic in Melbourne Demons
Reminds me of Melbourne in the Neale Daniher era. -
Grading the draft in isolation of other list management decisions, such as trading and making use of free agency, is a bit pointless. Grading the whole shooting match from go to whoa is far more interesting...albeit we need to see how the individuals actually play. In other words, wait three years.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 27th November, 2023
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I wonder about that. When the Essendon players were banned, they basically couldn't attend anything. I seem to recall the ban extended to Dustin Fletcher being unable to attend school football games in which his son was playing. I recognise that there are different circumstances, hence my question. -
PODCAST: Jason Taylor Interview
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
On my monitor, the opening post includes this line, "our recent recruits who have yet to play a senior game, who he thinks will be the next Judd" with Judd being the last word on that line. I think that's a great question just as it is. -
PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 27th November, 2023
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Just on players who are not at training, what's the situation with Joel Smith? Is he still "provisionally suspended"? And what does that even mean? -

??? And you forgot Amp (from Ampere) -
You're not a member of the English men's Test cricket team, are you?

Welcome to Demonland Caleb Windsor
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to adonski's topic in Melbourne Demons
Close, though. I'm sure someone there will have written Coburg Sux. -
Adonski is our winner. Picked both Windsor and Tholstrup with the first response to the opening post. In hindsight, many might say "but they were the obvious choices". Except that of about 60 suggestions made, only two or three actually got both selections correct.

Let's stay away from Nazi sympathisers. I'd be happier with Prince, King or even "House-of" -
Welcome to Demonland Koltyn Tholstrup
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
And have we ever had a Caleb? -
Welcome to Demonland Koltyn Tholstrup
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
Apologies. Google let me down. (To be fair to Google, I may have misread my search results. I'm convinced I read that there are regular direct flights from Melbourne to Esperance, but given I can't find that same information today, I'll assume the mistake was wholly mine.) -
Welcome to Demonland Koltyn Tholstrup
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
Suggests to me he wanted to meet someone in Perth. Otherwise he could have flown to Esperance directly and saved a lot of time. -
Welcome to Demonland Koltyn Tholstrup
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to Mach5's topic in Melbourne Demons
Melbourne to Esperance and back is less than 6,000km if fly direct (which is possible). So, either the 8,000km figure is wrong, or Taylor went via Perth. Relevance? If he went to Perth, who else did he speak to? -
Think you know what will happen on Monday and Tuesday? Are you prepared to show the rest of us you really do know what's happening? Here's a thread for you. Just tell us all who we'll select at next week's draft. Simple. No justifications are necessary (but feel free to expand if you wish). If you're really courageous, don't qualify your selections by saying it depends on who else is selected first. Just give us the names of the players who will be on our list by Tuesday night. Closest the pin will win something from Demonstone's prize cupboard. I have no idea who is who, so no names from me.

Do we know whether the horse's name is in any way linked to Jim Stynes?

Welcome to Demonland: Pick 11
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
It seems to me that "raking" is only ever used to describe left-footers. If that's correct (is it?), what's the equivalent adjective to describe right-footers? -

Umm... "valuable time on the ground and Hore..." . Am I close? -
any footy records collectors here?
La Dee-vina Comedia replied to langers1971's topic in Melbourne Demons
Sorry, can't help. I had to open the thread, though, to see whether you were looking for the Football Record (ie, magazine) or pieces of vinyl with music on it, such as that made by Peter McKenna. Good luck with your search.
