Fellow Demonlanders,

I'm worried about one of our own. Old Dee has fallen victim of the hopelessness epidemic that befalls many of us from time to time. In old Dee's case I'm worried that he's fallen further than is healthy. I'm worried that he might not come back from this one without our help and support. He doesn't seem to respond to my gentle pokes and prods anymore. I think it's time for us to band together and help Old Dee see the light at the other end of the tunnel and convince him it's not just a train coming the other way.

I'm asking everybody to get on board and post a positive reminder to Ol Dee. Let him know just how much there is to be excited about as we enter the 2013 season.

Come on folks let's cheer the old bastard up.

I'll start it off.

Hey Old Dee,

Clark, Dawes, Howe, Blease, Byrne, Tapscott, etc. When was the last time we had a forward line with this much potential? The future is bright my friend. Next year we'll add Hogan to that list. I can barely contain myself!

GO DEES!

If anything should cheer him up it is most likely not to be seeing a player in an 'away jumper'! It makes our players look like St Kilda players!

Well I have to say I am honoured guys a thread in my name.

I can say at this tender age I have now made it.

The pinacle

Now all I need is a footabll club that wins the occasional game.

( wonder what the fees are at the lions? )

Must be a mystical force in the universe. I was thinking of starting a cheer-up OldDee a thread myself today.

Old Dee, the last GF I was at was in 1964 so I could be as depressed as you. But cheer up, the wheel is turning.

Hi mate long time between drinks that is or sure.

Don't be too worried I am not about to fling myself in front of a bus.

If I was it would not be the because of the MFC.

It is the speed of wheel that concerns me.

With all due respect to Old Dee, at least he's seen a Premiership (or perhaps more than one?). I'm more concerned about the other x thousand supporters who have not had that particular pleasure bestowed upon them.

Spot on I have seen two that is a long way in front of many.

I actually don't expect to see another but would love us to win more than we lose.

I was there in 1964, although I was only 6 and don't really remember it. But don't give up hope. Another might be just around the corner. It's just that we don't know how far we have to travel until we get to that corner.

Couldnt care less about the colour of the jumper, he plays for the dees.

You're welcome - just bloody well cheer up mate!

This kid will be .................. (fill in your own positive/superlative adjective).

I'm more excited by his potential than Hogan and Viney combined.

All class and can kick goals.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
