Nup, definitely Melbourne.

But if you're a bit slow on the uptake you may have missed that I was talking about years ago.

Years ago............got it. They're alot more efficient these days.

Honestly I've been a slack [censored]. But I'm so stoked that he is now a proud demon supporter.

On a side note congratulations on the birth of your new child.

Was there any talk yesterday about the new sponsor that PJ mentioned at the AGM. From memory it was a substantial sponsor that should be finalized this month.

I went and got there just before 10. I wondered around for a bit and tried to stay dry. Couldn't get into the white castle thingy because they had closed it off because the players were going to speak shortly. My Carlton supporting nephew came with us and could only get on 1 ride because of the queues. I managed to get some signatures on the posters you could get. Got Jonsey who is just the nicest guy and Roosy who was by the stage when the players were introduced and he was still signing stuff so he stayed to the end.

Got Crossy and Vince who were in a marquee. Surprisingly the line wasnt to long. The Melbourne woman told them they had to leave the tent to go to the castle thing as they were all being introduced soon. Bernie said well can you tell that to the people in the line so we dont look rude when we walk off.

All the boys seemed in a great mood and I think winning friday night had helped memberships with the momentum still going.

We do it to different clubs it seems when the coach speaks. Ive noticed at other family days the coach speaks after the players are introduced. We interview the coach separately. A lot of people would have missed out hearing from Roos.

The most interesting thing he said was he was surprised by how many people have been at training watching and at the intra club game. He said there would have been more people there than at training when sydney made the 2005 GF.

I didnt see PJ. I would have thanked him as well. Robbo is a good MC but geez he loves the sound of his own voice.

But it was a good day.

Speaking of kids, the MFC got a new member today, my latest grandson who I registered as a baby Demon (he's seven month old).

In going through my membership package to find a form to register him, I found the brochure the club sent to members with their season's tickets and right there in the middle of the box "Play a Role - Demon Heartland" is a picture of my oldest grandson wearing his Demons guernsey and pumping his fist. The photo was taken before the Gold Coast Suns game early last season. It's safe to day he'll have more opportunities to enjoy the Dees in 2014 than last year.

Just received a phone call from MFC telling me that I won 2nd prize at the family day. A 2014 signed jumper, which I should receive mid march. So freaking stoked

What, you are selling it?

Never say never but I think I'll hold onto it. Only problem is that I have no where to hang it. Plus I have no idea what they would be worth. Any idea?

Unlike the last few years, hopefully it is worth more at the end of the season.

Depends on whether it is the first 'team signed jumper' of the new and glorious era. That could make it pretty valuable in a few years time.

Appreciating asset, hold on to it for now. ;)

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
