When I think about decades of following the Demons I often have melancholy feeelings around other teams competing in the finals and us being perennial also-rans. Some years though had sympathetic highs, with accompanying sound tracks. What were yours, for better or worse?

Off the top of the bat I can remember listening to the late 60's post-season night finals with Melbourne 'starring' in night finals and The Easybeats playing "Sorry" over the car radio. On a less happy note I can recall endless renditions of Hey Jude in our dud 1968 season. Hey Jude thereby always carries a certain sadness removed from its intended sad message.

What Goes Up-Blood Sweat and tears....

Posted (edited)

'It's a Long Way to the Top' (AC/DC) seems to have a ring of truth about it, and 'Crying' by the late and great Roy Orbison used to be relevant, but I've long since given up crying after a loss. When I'm at a game, I often feel like telling feral oppsition supporters to 'Shaddap You Face' (Joe Dolce).

'You Werent In love With Me'

Its the song where "Blind Freddie' started seeing all the problems and advances within the MFC.

Its the song in which people on here state they have a close relationship with Freddie.

Coz Blind Freddie talks to some posters on here and he sees things others cant, and its blindly obvious that everyone should see.

I love Blind Freddie. He is such a source og information

i remember watching the come from behind win against freo in 2008 whilst listening to the album Watershed by Opeth. Early on we were getting pumped, so i turned off the commentary and put on Watershed. No single song from the album reminds me of the game, but vividly remember watching us come back from the dead whilst listening to the album!

If we're talking about song titles that reflect my various feelings being a demons fan in recent years;

Lost to Apathy - Dark Tranquility

Angry Again - Megadeth

Blind Faith - Dream Theater

and if i had to pick a Pantera song title i'd go for Shattered, they way i feel after every game these days!

Oh for A New Level and Domination......

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
