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.

Condolences Demon Hill.

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

Posted

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.


Posted

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.

Posted

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

Posted

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.

Posted

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.....

Posted

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

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.

Condolences DH

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 :)

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.

Posted

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
