Sound's like they trained the house down...... :)

I wouldn't say trained the house down FC Melbourne, but they enjoyed the surrounds.

 

Not related to training but I had a look in the paper and unless I've missed something, I couldn't see Watts' name in the Casey line-up...

Does anyone know anything about that?

I'm hoping it's a misprint.

He is not named for Casey, he is an emergency for AFL side, Casey are playing in Ballarat, so unless Neeld is planning something left field, Watts will sit out this week

Crazy if he just sits out, he needs the practice.

I think he will be a surpise in, for sellar maybe.


Most enjoyable thread read this year.

Would have loved to have been there

He is not named for Casey, he is an emergency for AFL side, Casey are playing in Ballarat, so unless Neeld is planning something left field, Watts will sit out this week

If he's not going to play at all, I'd like to see him sitting in the coach's box so he gets a better understanding of what's expected.

 

that was grouse , well done to all , go dees


well done Wizza & the Demon Cauldron for putting some much needed Warmth around the boys...

great support guys.

Congratulations to all concerned. Impressive work.

Every heart beat true ...

I want to congratulate everyone who got down to Gosch's Paddock this morning. Particular thanks to the family who bought the floggers and led the songs and chants. I have been listening to the positive press that has been generated and it has brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye. This is a clear example of what 200 dedicated supporters can achieve by remaining positive and finding a voice. Imagine the power of 30,000 if they all turn up at the MCG tomorrow and practice having a united and positive voice... what could our team achieve then?

Congrats to all

See you at the 'G!

I'll be the poor bastard with 6 or 7 west coast supporters in tow :( haha


When you watch the video (which is great!) you can see the players are genuinely shocked at what happened when they turned up this morning.

They are almost a bit like 'is that for us?' If nothing else it was nice to see them as people and see that they realized we cared.

It's also fantastic to see the players sign autographs and talk to the kids. When those kids grow up they'll remember that the way I remember getting autographs from Garry Lyon, Jimmy and the Ox, and they'll realize just how integral supporters are to the culture of a club.

I was really proud to be a Demon watching what happened this morning.

Here's the video from this morning's Training if you haven't seen it

Nice video - your not one bit shy are you!

If we have crowds like this every week they will need to start getting restraining orders.

I wish some of the pies/supporters could have seen that - so much for 70-80,000 members

And I think this, though a repost, is why we were there in body or spirit

Passionate support - that's what the boys need...


just past the url - works with videos not sure sure about images!

and see you all tomorrow

You can call us a "family" waynewussell but it was The Demon Army that brought the flags, floggers, patties, Big Heads & chants to the ground. We are a family - a devoted red & blue family - and you can find us behind the goals each week. I'm glad we were on the same page as Demonlanders when we hatched this idea before we left the ground last Saturday night. Now we all need to turn up at the G tomorrow. Demon Army will be there!

posdee, great minds think alike! The Demon Army were sensational in being loud and proud. I dips me lid to you all! This is what Unity is all about, bringing the various Demon tribes together to change the way we are popularly represented.

 

This is the attitude we need. This is what the Melbourne Football Club needs. Stand together. Will we beat West Coast tomorrow? Probably not. Will we play finals this year? I doubt it. Will we stand together and march foward as one? You bloody bet.

MFC forever, stand and be counted and lets move foward.

And when our day comes let us never forget how hard it was. We will drive the boots in. We will be ruthless and we will be proud.

Lets go Dees!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
