Knowing who we are - Fuscias, or Demons?

[dee-luded 2,958]

IT: Almost seems like we were dragged into "The Demons" against our Wills, but feel more at home in the garden trimming the Fuscias.

As soon as we lose the drivers of that Bus, that keep us as "Demons" the default personality of the cricket club returns & with some comfort. northern comfort

How do we? KEEP the Demon spirit burning in our footballers, whilst they're playing days are alive, before they turn to the Green, Green, pastures of the business garden...???

HaHa, good Idea, I haven't had a christmas tipple yet.

the post, is about now we are finally heading towards a "Hard at it Style" no backward steps & 'hardest team to play against', I would really love it to see our supporters hold this culture up high & not ever let it slip back to fuscia pruning again.

After we finally build this Hard team & game style, lets maintain the rage.

I would add unity to that too. We need to be more "one eyed" I believe and stick together while sticking up for our club.

Rage and unity.

Has a nice ring to it.

Maybe more inspiring than "First and Forever" there could have been something like:

"Melbourne Unity. Demon Rage."

Demons.

And we're not "Dees", either. "Dees" are nice, comfortable, safe and unthreatening.

Ban the "Dee" word.

We're Demons. On and off the field.

especially for any Friday the 13th night game?

I have to disagree

I have never known Dees to be nice Comfortable safe and unthreatening

It does fit well with GO Dees which can be yelled in a variety of rythms and is a compacted aggressive sound

it also can be expressed easily with a number of mouth positions, clenched teeth, subdued whisper, and emphasis can be placed on the first or second word for emphasis changing the context. While DEmons can be similarly used it is only with the emphasis on the two syllabyls(?? spelling) that can alter the feeling.

I would never propose abolition of Demons as it also so evocative and redolent of the history and glory and even the hell of promise and despair that I have experienced. I hope to use both as we storm to success and hope you can compromise and join me as we recognise that we are indeed DEMONS and THE DEMONS as we go

Go Dees!!!
