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

Did I see Strawbs O'Dwyer holding a baby O'Dwyer? What ever happened to father/son rule?


Should have been called the Mullets!! :)

Great clip!!!

great memories

 

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.

More cheese than the Kraft factory but I love it !! Is every big speccie taken over Garry Lyon ?

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.

Yep - a new update PLEASE--Thanks for the memory

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.

Cheese. Let's make our own history. That was all for nought anyway.

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.

Ive never seen that. Great to see. What are all those 80's hairdressers doing for a quid these days?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
