Maybe we could get Ricky Nixon on here to tell a few jokes to cheer old dee up a bit?

Toot toot.

Actually there's something to feel good about - the fact that you're not Ricky Nixon.

Apologies to Disney and 'Old Yeller'... I give you, the "Old Dee Theme":

Old Dee was a hunter

A rearin', tearin' hunter

In any chase he knew just how to run

And when he hunted trouble

He always found it double

And that's when Old Dee had fun

Chorus:

Here Old Dee

Come back, Old Dee

Best doggone 'old dog' in the east

Old Dee was a fighter

A rootin', tootin' fighter

In any scrap he knew just what to do

A rough and ready fellow

Although his coat was yellow (well, red and blue - but that doesn't rhyme with 'fellow')

His bold Demon heart was true blue

I think the wheel will make a slight turn this yr in the right direction Old Dee.. Not a lot, but surely a little. We are definately going to get tougher anyway so cheer up and look forward to trouncing the power in rd 1!!!

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.

Hey Old Dee, there's not so many of us left from the glorious 1964.

As a young 17 year old in the crowd that day, and having not lived in Melbourne since 1990, my spirit has not always been that of a dedicated supporter.

However, I really believe the shock to the system created by the turmoil of the last few years and the way the team is being run now, have all set us on a path which will give us at least a couple more dates to add to that wonderful day in 1964.

I can almost see it now with the siren about to go : Jack Watts running off the back line, playing out of position and thumping through a perfect goal, as we once again go on to smash the Maggies for just a few points !!!

The difference is, this time we will back it up again the following year, against Carlton and then the next against ....

Go Dees 2013 and beyond!!

Fellow Demonlanders,

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,

And a full year of Craig and Missen with a cleaned out list

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!

    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

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
