Players who grew up supporting the Dees

Featured Replies

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.

Clint Stanaway (channel 9 news reporter)

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

That guy from that show that was on TV that one time

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.

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.

Not in our zone, I think. (Red Fox)

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.

 

Nikki Buckley is a big Dees fan,


Leigh Mathews a Melbourne Supporter before joining Hawthorn,.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
