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???

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.

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.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
