Hey all,

I'm a recent sign up to demonland.

I've started a new blog about being a Dees supporter in our tough times.

I hope some of you guys will find it enjoyable to read over. I'm taking a lighthearted approach to the topic.

So have a look and hit me up with feedback.

www.diarydemon.blogspot.com

If you don't enjoy it please keep feedback constructive rather than crude.

Thanks all,

FCmelb

So it wasn't the worst we could have expected!

I was pretty pleased in patches and then in fits of rage as we softened up and let the Pies kick an easy 4 or 5 goals.

Still, when we showed we actually wanted to go hard we were on terms with them. Take a bow Jack Grimes for the head clash contest.

This is a blog I've started and am writing each week having a look back at the games with a bit of a light-hearted approach.

Have a read.

Feedback very welcome, please keep it constructive if you don't like it.

Thanks,

So season 2 starts with a win.

Can the Dees salvage something from the second half and show us supporters what we so want to see?

I also wanna know, what do we think about the new backline without Garland and Rivers. Will it stay this way???

I spose it's about versatility.

I've started a blog that I hope all supporters enjoy.

Hit me back with some feedback if you're interested.

Cheers,

Thanks to 'Demon' for the feedback.

As a result here's a little bit of this weeks blog:

Footy is a physical game. We often see players go so hard at it that neither gets up unassisted. We watch as bones snap, heads clash and concussion sweeps through a playing list.

This, I already knew.

I did not know, however, that spectating could also prove quite so physically demanding. Waking up Monday morning I felt as though I’d gone three rounds with The Champ (I can just imagine every boxer of the last 10 years, with their self-inflated ego’s, reading this thinking, “hey, he’s talking about me”).

But why?

Well I knew the loss of our favourite son Mitch Clark would hurt but I was hardly prepared for just how much. When the news broke last week I had no plans for a candlelight vigil down at AAMI park.

Now I’m selling candles for $2 each or three for 5. See you there.

If you're interested in checking out the rest please hit the link.

Also please keep that feedback coming. It's much appreciated.

Thanks guys,

Here's the next one guys.

Bit of video content in there this week.

And as with last week here's a little of the blog up front:

I wasn’t able to catch the whole game on Saturday and apparently that wasn’t such a bad a thing. Going off what people have told me, the parts I missed were just about as bad, if not worse, than the one’s I caught.

So what to make of it?

Well, considering the actual game was a battle of who could lose first, maybe we should turn our attention to things that managed to be more painful viewing for the time being. We'll get to the calamity later.

The advertisements. Now these are worse. They have to be.

Latest update following another bout of disappointment.

This week sees a nod to Dennis Parker. Don't know who he is?

You should. And you won't regret it once you do.

Cheers guys,

There’s one thing worse than leading a game for three quarters before conceding seven goals to zip in the last and finishing up 34 point losers. That thing is Fremantle’s club song.

Following a spirited display for most of the game I know I felt pretty flat when the final siren sounded. I sat there thinking, “well, that was rubbish,” and then the Freo club song started, rubbish had new meaning.

Alternatively ,you could quit your rubbish blog and just post random and obscure thoughts on here and cop "feedback" like all the rest of us .

Individuailty is frowned upon in here-so just be yourself .

If you cant be yourself ,then just write what everyone finds socially and morally acceptable so we can drift into a deep coma and ignore the needs of our families/housemates whining and rustling around the place .

I admire your ambition and entreprenuereal spirit in trying to create your own thing but I am suspicious of creativity in general so I have organised a hit man funded by guys like Nasher ,HT ,Old Dee and the Neo cons to vist you at your blogosphere .

Sorry.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
