I recently moved from perth to brizzy and thought i would give the local support group ago after having a ball in perth with them.. I was very dissapointed to learn that they dont do anything and that rrepeated attempts have come up short..

in Perth i went to a pre match dinner the night before got to meet the coach and some players, them had a bonus of going to hold the banner out on the ground..I had a ball. There is some benefits to barracking for the non home team.. So after this kind of reception in perth i was really looking forward to atleast a after game meet and greet..

Isnt there anyone else in queensland this passionate???

I am converting banana benders from that sport where no one has a neck and it is kinda embarrasing that we dont even have a weekly place to watch the game. :(

I know this is totally a bit off topic but i i was going to post this mourning.

Regarding the game at the Gold Coast against the Sainters.

Does anyone know if we are going to have an after match function like we do at the Gabba?

Also any idea of accommodation we can stay 1 night in? 4 of us.

Thanks guys

In reply to your question you will find you have a number of very passionate supporters up here in brissy.

We have an after match function every year after the game at the gabba. Usually this is at the Pineapple Hotel and is a great night after the game! Its run by demondeb and you can join QLD demons through her.

There are all sort of things organise throughout the year and this year is good cause we get to go to 2 games.

One at the gabba

One at Carrara.

So hopefully that answers a few questions.

I love watching the games at home with a lot of friends, we kind of set it up like a stadium haha so its a personal thing but i am sure if you request it, demon deb will organise a place to watch a game all together

I'd like it if we could have designated places where Dees fans can go in any major city.

Even in Melbourne, it's hard to find a place where Dees fans can congregate and watch the match together. One inner city pub, and possibly one in the northern, Eastern, Southern and Western parts.

I started this thread with the hope of letting people know where they can watch the Dees play.

Surfa, look up demondeb and PM her to link up

Yes DemonDeb certainly seems really passionate enough about this Surfa, just as you seem to be.

Hi Trent

Alas there is a lot of apathy here in Qld and most people seem to prefer to watch the games alone. I have tried numerous times to get groups together and failed miserably. The only time i seem to have a meeting of minds is on game day at the Gabba. So, on that note, I suggest there could be some people gathering at the Pineapple Hotel but not sure how many of them will be Demons fans.

If you are interested, we have a get together there on Friday 3rd April where we have the club's Qld recruiting officer coming along to talk about the club's recruiting strategies, the new recruits and also will answer questions.

Hope u can come along.

Deb

This was the response from deb and it didnt really sound too promising.. (not bagging Deb at all ) i just thought there might be something permanant on a week to week basis. Anyway if anyone is interested pm me and i will approach a few place that are central with good parking and try to get something going.

Surfa, asked the question on a another thread but we are coming up to watch the Dees at the Gabba. Before I book seats is there any specific area that Melbourne supporters will be. Don't want to sit with the enemy!

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    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. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
