Hey fellow supporters,

I am a painter, and whilst photo posters are excellent, if you want to get really serious, only a painting will do. I would be happy to accept commissions from any of you! It has so many fabulous facets to it, that I suspect I'll paint a version anyway(with the 'home' uniform and shorts in replacement) My avatar is in fact a 'front on' view of the Shaun Smith mark using artists models (it's a bit hard to see I know). It is one of a triptych....front on, TV side view, and opposite side view. They are 5 foot tall, acrylic on canvas. I've also done a couple of modern impressionistic portraits of Tom Wills, both very football specific. If anyone is interested in seeing them, I can provide the relevant link to www.flickr.com where they (and the Shaun Smith) are in much higher def.

I can't see G.Lyon's eyebrows

Good Stuff....

Cheers bud. Will be an interesting response.

It'll also show the MFC how much us supporters take pride in our heritage red and blue! Maybe Keyser Snooze will realise what the bigger picture is within the email soon... when he wakes up.

The Dees are all about "community" and there's no better way than for supporters to voice themselves and help make a difference in various areas of the club. Imagery is an important one. And forum's such as Demonland are fantastic whereby a community as a whole can rally together to get behind different causes.

So... got a rebuttal, Keyser Salad???

So when do we actually find out the winner for mark of the week?

I admire your drum beating, but I find it amusing when you refer to our alternate strip with a Demon on it..as "un-demon" like. The alternate strip represents the Melbournefc whether you like it or not.

Nevertheless the email may well result in "eyes rolling all over the shop." Granted, you may receive a reply thanking you for your thoughts.

Do you have the same view on Russell Robertson's mark taken a few years ago in a NAB Cup opener against West Coast at Etihad ? It was also an alternate strip which contained white as well as a demon (even though not the same jumper from the weekend). A most memorable mark also. Perhaps you could re-paint that one too.

This is it:

Jurrah is forever getting the ball seemingly out of position...the way he moves.....its almost his trait.....I still remember the one he took over Baker last year and then showed him the ball. It was right in front of me and I was surrounded by Stkilda supporters...the look on their faces and Bakers was priceless.

"Keep you eye on the RED and the BLUUUUE!"

RED AND THE BLUE!!! THE TEAM WE LOVE, THE TEAM OF THE RED AND THE BLUE.

:) Loved Robbo's mark also... and it was good that the jumper he wore was actually predominantly red and blue.

Like when Yze's ripper goal from the pocket was eliminated against Essendon fans voting for a Fletcher bomb at the Telstra Dome.

That should have been goal of the year.

I tried that countless amount of times from the same side (lefties > righties :P ), only 20 metres out and I think I've only done it once...with a good bounce.

And I've kicked bananas from behind the goals so I'm no newbie to it

Sorry, but the jumper back then was predominantly red and blue.

Currently... it's predominantly white and blue. :/

Fairly ridiculous email to send the club.

Eyes would have been rolling all over the shop.

Comic sans is fitting.

Keyser = [censored] is fitting. The guys is expressing his passion. Take note.

Hahaha I agree with KS.

It's a wanky email to send the club, but it depends on your stance on the matter.

I'd roll my eyes and I think most at the club would.

I'd be disappointed of they didn't.

I'm sure the club wouldn't roll their eyes, I'd be disappointed if they did. If a youngster or anyone else for that matter came to you with an idea good or bad would you roll your eyes ?? Ideas, passion and enthusiam should be meet with applause not contempt.

Yep, you're spot on.

And silly emails whingeing about a clash strip with a amateurish attempt to change the jumper colour should be met with a roll of the eyes.

It's embarrassing to think anyone would really care about what looks like a year 9 graphics assignment.

Bravo.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
