QUEENSLAND DEMONS XMAS GET-TOGETHER


Demondeb

Recommended Posts

Hi all

For those not on the Qld Demons mail list ( and why not??) it has been decided to continue a new tradition and have a Xmas lunch for our supporters.

Last year was great although only a small group made it and this year we want to make it bigger. We have more than last year already but if you live in Qld and want to come along, please PM me for details.

It is in Ormeau which is halfway between Gold Coast and Brissie to be fair to all and it's a nice little pub called the Shearer's Arms. Good food and lots of it and we can discuss our year/ our draft picks etc etc and our hopes for a better 2009.

Hope to see you there.

Hi Deb ... wishing you best of luck for your function. Have you ever considered having another function between Xmas and early in the New Year when there are lots of Victorians holidaying on the Gold Coast?

Could make for an interesting function and a fundraiser for your group.

Thanks WJ, for the idea. Not sure I can do it this year but might just give it a whirl for next time.

For those that missed this post and would like to come - please feel free. No charge but everyone just buys their own lunch/drinks. Just need numbers so if you are in Qld or going to be visiting then, give me a PM and we would love o see you.

Just bumping this thread up for today's Queensland Demons function. Hope it's successful and I look forward to seeing a report in the near future.

Definitely going up there late December/early January and still happy to organise an informal get together to have a drink and discuss the Demons. After all, what else does one do in the middle of summer in a sunny climate?

Thanks for the bump WJ - it should be a good day. We have almost doubled the number from last year so thats a good thing and we have one new girl coming along that noone - not even moi - has met yet.

As for your impending arrival - I am sure we can find an excuse for a drink so please let us know the dates and I will start organising something now.

Anyone reading this post who would like to meet WJ whilst he is up here, just PM me and I will keep you updated with the details.

deb, do u have to apply to be a member of qld demons if a member of mfc?

There is a small form to complete to become a member however no charge.

Advantages of membership ?

We get together occasionally to discuss our club and we sit together at Gabba and Carrara games and enjoy each other's company at the after match functions.

Deb will reply when she spots your post,

Cheers.

Not as such but PM me your email and I will forward you a member ship form so we have your details on paper. Then I can send you a membership card and you will be a Qld Demon officially. MFC members are Qld Demons at no cost.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
