At least we have somehting to look forward to at the game now, im keen to see how they perform with the increase in intensity. Hopefully Strauss has earned a spot also.

Yep these kids are a BIG reason i am going round one. Really hope they turn it on seen them play in the pre season and both look the goods, i imagine they have been building for round one and ready too show why they are the best 2 kids in the land!! I'm excited...

Thats enough for me, i'm there (was going anyway), but now i am pumped. Been a tough pre season, but bring on the reel stuff!

Perhaps they are a good reason. There is 20 other reasons too. One in particular I like to watch is "JG" too. He is just as good as reason to go see a game of footy.

The main reason though, should be to support the club unconditionally and enjoy an afternoon of footy for the first time at the G in over 6 months, with the smell of pies, hotdogs & hot chips wafting through the stadium on a great autumn day.

In all the misery on 'land and 'ology it's a shame that this has been glossed over. Yes we have lost Wonna and Sylvia to short termers, and Morton and Jurrah to mid-termers, but Scully and Trengove coming in and playing well well be by FAR the bigger deal come round 22. I don't think I'm the only one who was hugely encouraged by their pre-seasons. They played every game, right?

All is not lost for season 2010. There's going to be a LOT of fun to be had despite the unfavourable win:loss ratio.

You're quite right. The following week you'll quiver at the smell of tooth decay and horrid body odour. ;)

Don't they still sell heavy beer during day games?

They did when I was last at the G in 2008.

That's what getting to the pub at 11am beforehand is for...

Geezus people..

Sneak in your own proper beer, wine or spirit in a flask or "unopened" bottle of something.. dont let them rip you off for food and bevvys!

Fill up an empty small bottle of water with voddy, stick it in your pocket and bring / buy a can of coke!

Cant remember the last time I paid for a drink at the footy. demon_wink.gif

Theres nothing like sipping on Ribena, (which is actually a fine Red) in front of a good game of footy!

Just think, In years to come, we can say "I was there when Tom and Jack played their first game for the Red and Blue.Remmember when the Dee's were struggling to win games and all looked hopeless."

Of course no one will believe after dominating the last decade from 2012 onwards that the Mighty Demons were ever as bad as that. :)

Canadian Club for mine, unfortunately it is only with coke not dry ginger at the footy.

At this stage will not be attending fluff it but trying to get out of an obligation.

I was already going, but that just makes it better.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
