I don't know if anyone will read this before the game but I suggest the following.

After the coin is tossed, when one of the captains points what direction their team is kicking, we should all stand and sing "It's a Grand Old Flag".

After the last week we've had, hopefully this will show solidarity and support for our players. Let the hair stand up on the back of their necks.

Tell/message your mates to do the same. Someone tell the Cheer Squad too. Hopefully others will join in.

Not a bad idea, but far simpler if you want to do something is to stand and sing the club song when they play the music as the players come onto the ground. I am sure if every Dee fan stood and sung the players would see and hear it. Would that make a difference, who knows?

Supporters are passionate for the club. FOr the players the club simply pays their wages. At least that's the way they play.

What a dh am I? I really thought our supporters would turn out in droves. No wonder we're a basket case. 2 players carried off in stretchers but the Dee supporters were scared of getting wet or felt it wasn't worth going. When we come out of this, you a. holes will turn up acting like it was something you did. The teams we hate have supporters with some passion. I feel sick.

I don't think it's the people who post on here who are the fair weather tossers. Write a letter to the papers.

I was there and very few sang at the game either... I reckon all of us are just a bit [censored] off and were waiting to see if the players would put in... Or maybe I'm completely wrong.

I was there CF on level 2 of the members and i stayed till the end.

The MCC was fairly full...The Southern Stand was the worry.

The MCC cop a few wacks, but the turn out wasn't too bad.

if only a few of those first Quarter points had been goals....I think the crowd wanted to be loud, but it's hard when good play is not rewarded with goals.

You might think it's bad that our supporters didn't turn out - but remember it was Carlton's HOME GAME and they should have had a better turn out, particularly after last week's performance, surely they were confident of a win? Yet the crowd wasn't all that big - what does that say about Carlton supporters?

hahahaha .. if they were passionate they would turn up to support the players, there not passionate they are down hill skiers.

Thats why the players simply play for wages ... why bother doing anything else ... nobody there to watch them.

cheer squad to start it though.

they bust their gut every week with little help from around the ground ..

It's nice to think the cheersquad can help out here but some of us are at the ground at 9am doing what's necessary for the day. Behind the scenes we put in very long hours of volunteer work, usually without a computer in our laps. If you want some Cheersquad assistance we need notice.

I can tell you about a game at Etihad Stadium next week. It's our home game. Don't sook about not liking Etihad. Just get there, be vocal, support our team....OUR TEAM....'cos if we don't noone else will

    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. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
