The club has allocated positions a limited umber of positions in the guard of honour for the players on the QB weekend.

Sign up a youngster with us next Monday/Tuesday night & we will allocate your youngster into this memorable experience.

This will support our need to boot up membership in these tacky times & boost the moral of our volunteers.

Do you have a youngster that would like a membership & this unique opportunity? Cost is $50 - 60 dependant on age.

Email me if you would like a call next week. Geoff [email protected]

    Not a bad idea but not sure why we should honour the players with a PUBLIC display "guard of honour". Kids should and can still be encouraged but couldn't the club arrange for an alternative that would be just as rewarding (for them) like a meet & greet with a select group players in the rooms pryer to the match or something behind the scenes?

    If we were unfurling the Premieship flag I could understand.

    I'm with Frankie on this... honour before honours!

    My son was in the Guard of Honour a couple of weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. He met David Rodan and got his signature on his jumper which he was thrilled about. I think this helps keep kids interested in the club and helps keep them as supporters. He was getting sick of losing but this brought his spirit back up.

    Anything that helps engage younger supporters should be encouraged in my opinion. It was well organised and kudos for the club for at least attempting to engage with it's supporters.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
