Sorry JCB, what did Mark Robertson have to do with the rest of that sentence?

We have quite a few influential supporters with some of the larger corporations.

Re the first post that HT introduced re Journo's and who they follow- I posted that Robbo barracks for Essendon and Nasser(BHP chairman) barracks for us..Have a great Xmas.

Yeah... It says Robbo barracks for Essendon on the list.

Is there more to it that I'm missing?

Your forgetting 2 of teh greatest Dees supporters of all time.

Paul Kelly (The musician) and David Bridie, from My Friend The Chocalate Cake. Massive supporters.

Ohh yeah...and John So.

Paul Kelly (the musician)actually supports The Adelaide Crows...his excuse is that he's an Adelaide boy,so fair enough I guess

OK so someone else has made that point, sorry I'm new to this....I dont see Kelli Underwood's name there, she is a journalist apprantly and definitely supports Gary Ablett jnr. I guess she's conflicted at present about which Team to put down

Didn't Neita present Sachin Tendulkar with a Dees guernsey? I'll claim him.

Can't believe our luck at getting Ryan Shelton on board.

Luck?

I think he's pretty devoted.

I've seen him at a few games in the MCC wearing a vinyl dees jacket.

Never seen one before that, so I got a feeling it's a custom job.

I thought we could too maurie. Wrote some terrific articles from behind the scenes or within the inner sanctum. Especially during some tough times in '09. He was transparent and touched on the bright side of things happening in and around the club.

I know as a fact(from the man himself) that he sees himself as neutral, but if pressed would be a mild magpie (if that is not an oxymoron!). This surprised me a lot considering his passionate and insightful articles about the club.

I'd call him a football purist.

Remember, he has written similar articles about the doggies some time ago.

They were the very template for what Flanagan was asked to do with us in 2009.

And surely we should claim:

Matt Burgan

He may work for the club now, but he's one that all dedicated AFL fans should be aware of

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
