Does a Demons Perth Supporter Base Exist?



Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

Ive just moved to Perth, I sat and watched the collywobbles games in a sports bar with not one other AFL fan in the prescinct.

Does anyone know if theres a group of Melbourne supporters here that go and watch the games somewhere on a regular basis?

Im sick of walking into pubs and asking if the AFLs on and these imbreds just reply "sorry we dont play GAYFL"

Cheers

There is Joan and Rod LAWSON run the Western Demons and I know they meet regularly to watch matches at The Melbourne Hotle in town and also the Mighty Quinn in Tuart Hill, if you go on the website and join up you will get regular updates on functions etc www.westerndemons.com

When was the last time we won a game in Perth?

Is it as damming as our South Australian record?

My crystal ball says round 2, this year.

Can you gaze deeply into it and see if get close the Hawks next weekend?

It's seeing a similar result to the Collingwood game with Jack Watts having the pill on a string.

Geelong was 2006 i think. I know ND cracked the win & a draw.

Before that we were coached by Swooper.

I think we have won 2 games at Geelong in the last 25 years plus a 30 goal loss now that takes some tossing

You had me up to the last 8 words.

Are you sure you did not have a long lunch today!

Sh!t it is a decade! No wonder sides line up to smash us sideways.

Neeld is going to be another Swooper Northey. Tough.

Enjoy the game. Give Wet Coke heaps.

I'm thinking the whole sentence suggests a long lunch.

My 13 year old daughter has been a member for 8 years she has yet to see the MFC win at Subi. :mad:

I hope they improve this year My daughter bailed out when she was 12 got tired of going to games that we never won.

Took up with Essendon ( still there ) and got a couple of Premierships for her troubles.

She is now a rusted on Bomber

Probably a good decision.

Hope you have more luck.

It is all about winning when you are 12.

Hopefully we will turn the corner for her this year.

Hey - I'm about to move to Perth for 3 months for work. Unfortunately I'm going a few days before Rnd 1 (I've been hanging out for it since September) but I did get a fix on Saturday night.

One consolation is that I can go to Rnd 2 v the Weagles. I'm planning to buy tickets through the club to sit with the other Dees supporters- do many people do that?

I was in Europe for the West Coast Game in 2002 but remember the win against Freo it was pouring down and they should have beaten s but let us off the hook and I remember thinking during the 3/4 if they dont put us away, in the final quarter we will be kicking to the city end with a howling westerly an driving rain we can win this. Thats what happened Vardy starred for us, I also think it was two or 3 years ago on fathers day we lost to West Coast by about 8 or 9 points but should have taken them, Crystal ball says Round 23 win against the Dockers to finish off the year.

Yeah mate. They poke us up behind the goals at Subi. Not the best seats but at least you can talk with other normal people.

I too am also making the move west in the coming weeks, and would love to find some fellow Dees to watch games with.

PM me with details of where is good to watch the footy, grab a pint and a good meal.

On a side note, anyone know of any jobs for an Environmental Planner out west?

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
