Sorry to indulge myself by writing this but my dear mum passed away on Saturday after a brave 12 mth fight with cancer. Mum is a 27 year member of this great club, as I am and a seat will be there for her from 2011.

My best friend is a client of Anthony Ingerson, many ardent supporters will be aware that Ingo runs his own construction company. I'd mentioned in the last day or two, to my friend, that Ingo was mum's favourite Demon. Ingo on hearing this volunteered his attendance to her funeral on Friday.

I'm not sure if that makes me indulge myself, my mum or Ingo, but I wanted to mention it anyway. I love this club, I love my mum and I love the selfless act from Anthony. My mum would be chuffed that he is turning up.

Thanks for allowing me to post this and thanks to Anthony. Thanks to the mighty Dees, who I might not be following without Mum.

Thanks Mum.

    I have passed on my condolences to you previously and reiterate them and acknowledge a fine act by Anthony.

    It's a nice to read about Ingo, one of my favourites too, so thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for sharing & condolences mate.

    I'm sure she would've loved that he was there.

    Sorry to hear of your loss Demon Hill

    It's strange you mention Ingo as for the last month Ive seen him just about every day at a job site In Brighton. I had a breif chat and he seems like a good bloke.

    She sounded like a beautiful person my friend, I am very sorry to hear about your loss.

    Cherish the good times, may she rest in peace.

    Sorry for your loss. How chuffed would she feel to have the great man ingo in attendance.

  • Quote

    So sorry to hear about your loss.

    Glad you can find some solace in your love of our great club. No doubt your mum will be smiling down when she sees Ingo making a guest appearance.

    All the Best DH, at least on friday you can be proud that The Ingo will be there paying his respects. Your mum will be stoked.

    Be proud you follow a truly great club now and forever.....

    Thanks Mum indeed.

    Demon Hill, thanks for sharing.

    Your mum obviously had a keen eye for playing talent, if IngerSole was one of her favs (god i hated hearing Dikhed rex hunt call him that)

    But he was indeed a fantastic player for us, and it is great to hear that he is willing to show that kind or respect to your mum, and your family, at a time like this.

    All the best from my family to yours.

    I hope the presence of Anthony provides your family with some comfort, and maybe even a smile or two, on the day you give your Mum the send off i'm sure she deserves.

    Regards,

    faulty

    Good work by Ingo, was my favourite player when I first started going for the dees til his retirement.

    Sincerest condolences and best wishes for the future.

    It's been a sad week for the club but Ingo's gesture when many would not take the time is certainly something very special in a person.

    X2.

    Condolences on your Mother. Great act by Anthony Ingerson.

    A bittersweet time . Very thoughtful of ingo. A very decent gesture.

    I trust your Mum to be resting peacefully now. Am sure she appreciates the seat too :)

    That's really quite something, you don't attend a service lightly.

    Condolences to you and your family, DH.

    Ingerson is there representing us all.

    Demon Hill, thank-you for sharing. Beautifully written my condolences to you and your family.

    Sorry for your loss.

    And Ingerson was one of my favourite players growing up. Never did anything flashy, but always put the team first and was a great leader down back.

    My Dad always tells me a true show of a man is someone who does something that they cant gain anything from.

    Ingerson is clearly a mans man.

    Demon Hill - Sorry to hear of your loss, cant be easy, but I too think your mum would of been chuffed with his attendance.

    Thanks for the words everyone.

    It was nice to have a chat to Anthony at what was a beautiful tribute to Mum.

    Obviously only caught a bit of our draftees, Mum would be happy our 1st draft pick shares the name as one of her grandsons.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
