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.

Deb

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.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
