On tour of the facility.

We've been to the locker room and the gym.

Now being addressed by Junior in the theatrette.

DEBT DEMOLITION

Are the donations tax deductible?

any other updates? all appreciated of course

We've seen the boys in the pool and had a wander round the pitch.

The facilities here are unbelievable. No co-incidence that the team has improved so much lately!

DEBT DEMOLITION

I'm going to the Debt Demolition Function tonight and hope to report on what happens.

I will try to provide live updates for Demonlanders and trust that those who can afford it and haven't already done so, will contribute whatever they can.

I'm overseas at the moment and will miss the dinner again this year but have emailed the club and told them of my donation this year and will pay it when I get back. I still have the other money i owe through the Goal thread which I will also pay when I get back.

Would love to be there but I have missed every one because of the time of year they hold it. This year would have been even more special because it will signal the end of our crippling debt.

keep us updated, excitin stuff i reckon

Mingling with the players, watching a DVD of Demon highlights.

Quite a few former players here, RDB. Neita, Stan Alves, Robbie, Jimmy of course and ... Todd Viney!

About to sit down for dinner. They're playing Hurricane by Dylan - obviously aimed at getting me to increase my donation

Bluey Adams, Gary Lyon ... among those here.

I'm sitting next to Scott West and Max Gawn's on my table.

Are you able to take photos?

Are you able to take photos?

Yes, especially if I had a camera! Boom Boom

I'll try to take some with my iPhone.

No Viney Jnr.

Gary Lyon speaking now.

DEBT DEMOLITION

I've been outbid twice for Max Gawn.

Food's great too but I suspect this is going to be an expensive meal.

DEBT DEMOLITION

Jimmy speaking now - introduced by Gary Lyon who introduced him as a hell of a footballer but also a great person.

If you're at home you can donate too!!!

Done.

Thanks for the updates WJ. Come on Demons !

The Australian Tax Office is conspiring against me.

I really wanted to donate a large portion of my tax return to Debt Demolition, but the bastards won't send me my money!

So instead I've donated the last bits of money hanging around my bank account and now I'm broke until payday. Good times await.

Looking forward to a full report from the night, and to hear that our debt stands at $0.00 tonight

I know that it's done in good spirit and perhaps even to encourage others, but one doesn't need to announce their personal donations.

Phenomenal. PHENOMENAL!!

The great thing about Melbourne is, whilst we may not be as vocal as some, we certainly have money to spend! On this occasion (over the past 2-3 years), we have let our wallets do all the talking.

Fantastic effort.
