In the mid-80's, the MFC produced the following production;

I think it's time to re-produce this classic using current day players. Before I go any further, this suggestion was mentioned on the Youtube comments section (so I'm not going to pinch someone else's idea), but I think it's something that the Club could do as a great fundraiser. When it was released, I know they sold a number of copies, and would have made a crapload (from memory they charged about $20 or $30 for a video that lasted 3 1/2 minutes!

I for one enjoy watching players do stuff outside of their comfort zone, and would certainly buy a copy of this. I'm sure I'm not alone!

So, what does everyone think? I'm not really sure who we need to contact to get this rolling, so any help would be great!

Is that Neita at 0:17?

Todd Viney (if you are meaning the guy with the tunnel ball doing sit-ups).

In that quick clip he looked a lot like Neitz, but yeah, looking at it again, it looks like Viney :D

I love that video! As you may have noticed from my signature below. I reckon it could work with the modern day players, but I am afraid any attempt to 'modernise' it would result in a cheap rip off. That clip has 80'S 'CHEESE' appeal all over it! But I like your idea! I love Rod Grinter in that clip to on the punching bag! And Darryn Hinch. Unfortunately Hinch gave up his support for the Dee's some years back, so not sure he would be good for a recall.

I wanna know who that little kid is that gives the "yeeeeeaaaaaahhh". Get him involved. Must be 25 by now haha.

Mal Waldon could replace Hinch.

Good OP.

I don't know if this is true, but my memory is that Chris Connolly might have written either the music or the lyrics. Either way, it is top shelf vintage stuff.

I think you are right. CC was definitely involved.

CC wrote the music. He and Jimmy play some of the music I believe, as you can see when they are out playing on the MCG. Jimmy is quite the pianist. I recall watching the Dublin Jim video and he does some handy work on the Elle McFeast show. Maybe he could do it again!!!

Does anybody have a better/cleaner version (mp3 or on CD) of the audio of this song?

Fantastic. Even featuring a newly-elected Senator on the clip.

i have the 12" maxi single, the b-side Demons Dance is great too.

I've always wondered if the person who wrote this also did Orange Organic's Pugwalls Theme song, heaps similar vibe.

Maybe just the midi times.

Loved the Orange Organics!

Got the 'C'mon Demons' record at home too- very catchy tune IMHO.

Didn't know Pauline was a Demons fan CBD. All she needs is a few streaks of blue in her mop.

    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.
