I have come to the conclusion that all our marketing endeavours from here on out are going to be targeted to a younger audience- and they should be. The youth represents our future membership base and these are the minds which are impressionable.

Wouldn't that preclude the use of an obscure song from an off-beat cartoon from 15 years ago?

I enjoyed it, but my warped memory thought they had purposely changed the tune to avoid copyright issues, but it is identical.

That's why Bailey's voice changes & goes all weird at one stage.

Any light you could shed on this chopper..?

    True, but those kids have parents.. win/win :)

    Sorry, but I think it's embarrassing. For the record I got the Ren & Stimpy reference too. Don't understand why the club would release something like this officially.

    Lucky that at least your kids all seemed to like it, if it was aimed at adults it's pretty pathetic.

    I don't see why it would, we enjoyed it when we were young. The message of "happy happy joy joy" is still prevalant today.

    It is the original song with Bails saying the intro. His voice does change at one

    stage, because he only did the start bit. I dont think there is any copyright issue.

    My understanding of the 'Free use act' is that if it's not for profit you can use it.

    There's probably more to it than that, but I'm sure club has smarter people than me

    over seeing these sorts of things.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
