If anyone is coming over for the game this weekend we have a dinner at the Athelstone Football Club on Friday night with Jim Stynes and Chris Connolly attending. So far about 50 people confirmed.

Entry is $30 per head for three course meal (Drinks purchased across the bar)

Please email me at [email protected] for any further information or to register your interest.

Cheers,

Gee wouldn't mind one of these deals in Melbourne

I reckon it would be a great idea for the club to organise a venue, close to the 'G, where supporters could meet for lunch, before heading to the game.

A sense of being part of the supporter base would do much for the lack of a strong culture spoken about on another topic.

I am sure it would not take much to form an "alliance" with a good pub, not far from the ground

Absolutely Iv's, i've often just though "if only the dees had a place in the city"

Working in Fitzroy hasn't helped remove this thinking! Anybody ever been to the Napier? Don't anybody tell them Fitzroy is no longer.

The Dees have suffered for a long time i think because of a lack of a "home"

There's no where traditionally Dees supporters can gather, aside from of course the footy and club sanctioned events which (like last week's post match) can often be hard to uncover.

Having a place where supporters can group easily would be a great step, but perhaps a fool's dream.

During ND's tenure a couple of times after a game at the G where the players and fans went to the Hilton. Which was great after a win. ie Queens Birthday.

Having a place where supporters can group easily would be a great step, but perhaps a fool's dream.

It's all about "the vibe" - and these gatherings would be great for the club I believe.

All,

Friday was a fantastic success raising around $6500 for the club with around 60 members, supporters and friends in attendance. With a bit more time and effort next year I have no doubt that we will double our numbers here in Adelaide.

Jim, Chris and Don McLardy told it how it was without pulling any punches, took the hard questions and answered them candidly.

Feedback from all I spoke to was overwhelmingly positive and passionate towards our cause.

Will see if I can get a chance to post some more info and some photo's during the week.

Still trying to come to grips with another AAMI debacle the following day ...

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
