Love the banner. Everything around us is changing (hopefully for the better) so a fresh banner makes sense. Three remaining places I am thinking Toumpas, Viney and ???

I cannot believe the vitriol directed toward Garry Lyon. Granted, his work helping appoint the last two coaches reeks of nepotism and inability, but no-one should ever forget his role in helping the Dees emerge through the late 80's early 90's into a team that was a serious challenger. He bleeds red and blue. He simply does not want to get involved in a position at the club. Why is everyone so miffed at him for this? Have you ever thought that the reason he does not take on a role is because he would be poor at it, as indicated by being the swingman who came in a couple of times to help Jimmy out? Look how that has worked out!

Guys, I've already finished the banner and there are no past players. We've done that and it's time to move forward. The banner is completed and a new player will be revealed each day leading up to th

Not everyone gets a state funeral..Jimmy is an exception to the rule.

Except you don't own and run Demonland. So you don't set the rules for Jimmy to be the exception :P

Demonland has had Jimmy on the banner for the past 3 years. I have the utmost respect for the guy and everything he did for the club on and off the field but the time is right to start making our own history and being at the lowest low is the right time to get up off the floor and move forward. We will never forget the past and the long list of champions.

Like our footy team, there are a few players gone missing on our banner.

Let's fill it up with hard workers and see if it has an effect on our on field performances ... otherwise, next time we'll have to put the ruins of the Colliseum in the background instead of the G.

That's why we provide each poster with a little avatar. Can't see Jimmy in yours.

Grimes, Viney, Trengove!

I just spoiled the movie for everyone!

Whilst the Grimes looks right (and is a monty to be on there, anyway), and the Viney is a cert, am I the only one who thinks the 'Trengove' silhouette looks a little like Howe? Are we in for a surprise?

New banner looks fantastic! Can't believe people are striking up arguments against it. Fresh start. Well done Demonland.

The G Part looks good guys. I have a feeling you'll be changing 1 or 2 of those Captains though once the new Coach has a chance to settle in. Sorry fellas but I agree with WYL's view that we should never leave Jimma off the banner. Literally gave the club his heart and soul and led the demon demolotion. Imagine where we'd be now without that 5 mill!

I thought the Viney silhouette looked a tad Dawes-like too

Good point, most of us know the history and probably time to write some new chapters. Cheers for your efforts

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
