Losing our first pick in the draft is going to make guessing who we might get impossible.

I'm 98% sure you are correct

It's sure to make for a long thread on Demonland.

I can see someone changing the name of the thread to the Not the Draft Thread. Don't want to give my age away, but while on Demonland, I have 70's Disco Hits on You Tube in the background. I am bouncing around on the chair and can hardly type straight. Wonder if I have any flairs in the cupboard, platform shoes and a bright shirt.

Loaned out continously.

Not sure where they got an old photo of my father

But now I will have to go back and get it fixed.

When the Roy Orbison was cooler, and memories of the last Dees flag were still crystal clear!

Oh please I have just got over the pain of 2011 season.

Pretty Woman was No.1 in 64

Every time I hear that song the GF comes back to me

Heard it on the radio on the way down from the country That and "Have I the Right" by the honeycombs.

Drove home that night and thought this glory will go on forever.

Oh well I had a few good months till the 65 season got going.

Ahh ... we have more in common than just our advancing years, a drop or two of good red and our unconditional love for the Dees.

I was dating two lovelies in '64 (hello Maureen and Jane). Sadly, they disappeared from the radar in '65 much like the Dees. It was a sh!t of a year in many ways, but I'm thankful that mini-skirts arrived a couple of years later, the good music continued for another decade, and the Dees are once again on the march. Ahhh!

My god two at once!

One at a time for me was good fishing.

Yes Mrs OD looked very good in a mini back then.

Actually she is probably holding up better than me.

can we go the distance deeoldfart?

I hope so

Carn the Dees

PS Over the last 5 years October and November have been the best months of the year.

We have not lost a game and expectation rises with Drafts etc.

Bit of trivia for you. The Homecombs drummer was a girl and her brother was the lead singer. Very few great female drummers over the years. The best IMO was Cindy Blackman in Lenny Kravitz's band who was the driving force behind " are you gonna go my way". She could really pound the skins.

'65 was a bad year for the Demons as we all know, even the youngsters have done there reading!

But a fantastic year for the Beatles with "Rubber Soul"

The Rolling Stones with "Out of Our Heads" (USA Version of course!!)

Bob Dylan with "Bringing it All Back Home" & "Highway 61 Revisited" Bob was on a roll Big Time...

& The Who smashed out the "My Generation" Album....

What a year for Record Player Sales....1965..& Mini skirts!!!

In My Humble Opinion WYL I always enjoyed "The Magic Bus" a lot more than MG.

Arh great years for music even if the Dees were crap.

You can see them on you tube if you are feeling nostalgic.

Thank you I will go looking, do they still exist as a band?

PS Just had a look, well I forgot how conservative they looked.

I preferred "Hitch Hike" of "Out of Our Heads actually....Side 1 Track 2.

Hey O D i reckon the Who were Fantastic, and hit their Zenith in 1973 with the Double Album Epic "Quadrophenia"

I still give it a good listen today...they were all brilliant on that one..

But yes "The Who Sell Out" with Magic Bus in '67 is worth finding on Youtube

All those great Jingles they wrote for Radio London....(The Boat that Rocked)

"I belong with you", great song.

I remember going with a few mates to a dance called Penthouse in North Road, Ormond when the great Laurie Allen and Bobby Bright were on the bill. 

It was 1964 and the pair were popular artists on the The Go!! Show as well as a couple of popular music programmes emanating from the Channel 2 studios at Ripponlea. 

To use the modern vernacular, the night of the dance was "massive". Hundreds of screaming young girls turned up and they outnumbered us males by 5:1. We thought, "how good is this?"

Problem was that when Bobby & Laurie were done, so were the chicks. For the rest of the night the males outnumbered the females 5:1 and alas, the three shillings spent on entry went down the toilet.

On reflection, it was a pretty good time. The Demons were on a roll,  virtually invincible and on our way to a premiership flag, we could safely hitchhike wherever we wanted to go and we were young and free.

What a time it was!

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • VOTES: Richmond

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
