How the heck did Matt Damon make the list?

Was out here filming or something a few years back, they teed up a jumper presentation with Bizzell, attended a match or two. A long shot saying he's a supporter.

His dad is one of the runners! Or a medic or something.

    I'm pretty sure Matt Damon can be added to that list.

    EDIT: Found a longer list: http://footy.wikia.c...rs_of_AFL_clubs

    Had to laugh after reading through the Carlton list and the following people

    • Mick Gatto (Repairs and Maintenance)
    • Jason Moran (Entrepreneur)
    • Mark Moran (Pharmacist)
    • Tony Mokbel (Importer)

    Some interesting slants on professions there

    Essendon's list of celebrity supporters is even better

    Kevin Sheedy

    Jemima from Playschool

    According to another chat room Bob Skilton wanted to go to Melbourne originally but we knocked him back like 3 times saying he wasnt good enough.

    Given we can't seem to fill a team of current players maybe we can squeeze him in the forward pocket with Kylie Minogue.

    Thanks for the responses to date. Appaently Lachlan Hansen and Nathan Buckly both supported the Dees also.

    Based on some quick research a couple of players suggested above appear to have supported other clubs. (Scarlett - Essendon, Deledio - Carlton, S.Johnson - Collingwood, Roughead - Bulldogs, Brown - Fitzroy, Goodes - Pies, Butcher - Saints)

    I have update our team with the other suggestions that I could confirm. (Could not find anything on Lake, Betts or Griffen.)

    We are still a players few short of a full team.

    ??? Dylan Grimes ???

    Jack Grimes Lachlan Hansen Simon Buckley

    Cheynee Stiller Moloney Andrew Gaff

    ??? ??? Prestia

    ??? Franklin ???

    Sorry Romey but Nathan Buckley was a devout C'wood fan. He didn't want to go any where but the wobbles. He was not allowed to nominate a team and thus he was drafted by the Bears; he only signed under the condition he would be traded in 2 years time.

    Both Kelvin (Richmond) and Andrew (Port) Moore were avid Dees fans growing up.

    Ray, Alan and Geoff Watson though two of them didn't play vfl. Dean Watson(Alan's Son) was a Morrish Medal Winner the year Gary Ablett Senior won the Brownlow I think Dean barracked for Melbourne. Come to think of it don't even think Geoff barracked for the Dees.

    Thought he was a dog's man, as he was on their list.

    His blue and red loyalties is to West Perth, as he was both a player and coach.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
