Who's made it to all 4 games so far.

This thread isn't about bagging people who haven't, we've all got reasons we can't attend every game. But for those who have well done. We deserved the last quarter.

Who sat through the debacle that was Port and followed it up with the shambles that was the Essendon game.

The Essendon game I had neutral supporters wearing Richmond jumpers hanging it on all our players.

The West Coast game I had a lady getting excited down stairs every time Le Cras touched the ball, it killed me.

Even this game seeing neutral supporters and smart ass teenage brats in their brand new first time worn GWS jumpers was killing me.

We have to stay strong. The pain will continue for most of this year but for 30 minutes yesterday and the time that followed we were free!

living in the otways does make it hard to get to all games , the wife is so rude she wont milk cows all weekend ,but the right to brag after a win is there for all. made the trip into town to pick up paper and talk about my team and my weekend away was thrilling to say the least. thanks for going to all games and keeping the flag flying for us 7 game people.dont worry about the smallminded people they cant hurt us and cant take away our passion. remember 2/3 after this week

Well done to you all. After a 50th birthday party that ended sometime after 6am i had to bail from Yesterday and listen to MMM.

I did turn it off in disgust during the 3rd Quarter but it was back on for the avalanche.

I was happy for MN. He must take that running attitude to the Gabba.

We can win.

That was no lady.

And yes, I'm 4 from 4. I never considered not going.

3/4. Had to work during the WC game although was planning on going after half time. I turned around and went back to work when I saw the score in the third!

Yesterday's win, albeit against GWS, was one to savour!

I missed the Essendon game only because I had had surgery two days early, was in plaster and under doctors instruction not to attend I plan on attending the away games against GWS, Adelaide and the Suns. Its a good excuse for a weekend away.

I've made all three.

Only stayed to the end in two, though: Port and GWS.

And who wants to admit to being at the game on Sunday and leaving at three-quarter time?

(Serves you right).

Well, after a fashion I did. I don't live in Oz, but religiously get up at ungodly hours to watch the Dees (5 a.m. on Sunday) on streaming. At 3/4 time, I just felt I needed to be in a calm place, and went out and walked the dog, only checking the score later. I've since watched the last quarter twice if that makes up for it ...

I went to the first three but couldn't get there Sunday.

Instead I watched the game from the local over a few pots and parma.

At three quarter time I was just about to leave when the girl behind the bar brought me out another drink. I said "Thanks but I am fine, I am actually out of dosh for the day" to which her response was, "You looked like you're about to cry at three quarter time, so we (the bar staff) thought we would shout you one."

Anyway's, didn't jag her number but we did jag a win.

I'll take that

I propose you stay at the pub for remaining games haha. Clearly its the good luck charm! Look at the positives by the end of the season you are bound to have had a few more drinks on the house and you might just get that number!

Let's hope it's us that are getting excited every time Le Cras touches the ball next year... assuming we make a play for him.

i've been to all 4 so far. i've stuck in till the end in each of the floggings, as much as it pained me to. Won't be going to many for the rest of the year though as i only have a 5 game country membership, and it will cost too much to go down for many more games.

Young dee, on your profile you have Paul Johnson listed as one of your favourite players.... I mean really?

I'm in the 4 from 4, but I only made it to the 2nd half of the West coast game, in fact to be accurate, 20mins into the 3rd quarter I got there having sprinted from work, and yes I knew the score. I take the word supporter very literally and had a great time this weekend, (mainly in the 4th quarter although I thought the 1st was fun too), I'll be watching on tv next week and will be back at the G for the Carlton game, so when the tide turns I can say I was there when we were terrible.

3/4, was throwing up during the West Coast game, and it wasn't from the state of the football.

3/4 I was sick for the Bombers game, same thing by the sound of it.

i don't know what it was about him, but i just really liked him as a player.

    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.
