just sometimes dee-luded i think you are irw's altar ego

edit: but as he often remarks "what would i know"

HaHaHa, good morning DC,,, Altar eGO??? Bring back the Choirboys... sorry, they were a Hard Rockin' band, weren't they.

No my main concern is we don't spoil the kids & undo the great work we're starting to do, as we've continually done in our clubs history.

Realising is the first part of change, & my only motivation is for us to learn to see how we effect our club. Deenial is a destructive thing, for us & our clubs wellbeing & successes.

We need to maintain the 'Rage' onfield, & on the track.

Ha played against them when I was playing for the London Swans quite a few years ago now!

I cut my teeth in the Ballarat League against the Daylesford Demons, home of Chris Grant and his brother Jamie (great footballers), but I see now they have moved leagues and changed their name to the Bulldogs...

i live in gippsland and i played against them this season and a couple before, playing for Hill End

Do you play at Willow Grove?

I drove thru to WG a couple of months ago.

And drove thru Boolarra 2 or 3 days back. Got lost they're, lost my bearings, trying to get out, to go to Foster, but started toward Morwell.

Wow, totally lost my intuitiveness.

I got to Foster after driving in circles on dirt roads rally driving, back thru Mirboo & eventually to Foster.

yeah ive been playing out there for a few seasons. unfortunately injured my shoulder early in this season and wasn't able to return as it never returned to full strength in time. Both WG and boolarra are nice little towns. If you're ever going through WG again i recommend going to their restaurant. pretty nice feed, they do lunch and dinner. A little pricey at dinner (not sure about lunch) but it was very nice when i went there.

haha happens to all of us! At least there would've been some good views while you were trying to find your way to Foster?

Brushing up on my dirt driving skills.

I didn't realise the Grand Ridge Road was loose gravel.

I turned around & went back & around, only to find out a day later, I was this close to the intersection. I was up in the logging truck route.

I ended up back on another gravel road so had some fun throwing it around a bit. whoo hoo... geez.

...anywayz, back to topic I guess...

You don't happen to be an actual 'Grimes' do you? One of the brothers?
No im not.

I played (very poorly) for Milawa FC in the O&K

We were the mighty Demons!

I was going to mention Milawa and I believe on another wine tour GreatWestern was bedecked in red And blue playing a grand final

It was a few years ago and travelling sporadically around Vic and SA i was amazed at the numkber of clubs that sported the Melbourne colours and were playing grand finals it lifted my spirits not just the alchohol related ones. If I remember quite a few won.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
