There's a greater chance of me giving up the grog than there is of me not renewing my membership!

    Why: Because it's the right thing to do as a supporter

    Why Not: I could list all the reasons but I might break the internet

    If you keep renewing you won't be giving the grog too soon! haha

    If you have the finances to pay for a membership, and you choose not to buy one, are you really 'supporting' the club?

    IMO, no, you're not.

    If you watch them on TV you are supporting them. Increasing ratings, increasing the likelihood of the team getting more prime time games.

    If I prayed, I could remember them in my prayers. Would that make me a supporter, or just a barracker? And do I need to move my lips for it to count? God knows, but I don't think He/She/It is on our side.

    That would make me a supporter of Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon - I watch all of them on TV, in addition to watching Melbourne games of course.

    Just over 12 months ago, I moved to Northern NSW .. and paid up as an armchair member.

    There were no games that I could get to ... not once did we play in QLD. TV coverage was abysmal!!

    See this years draw? Again we have no games in Qld and the TV coverage is even worse ... only seven of our games will be free to air.

    So far I ain't getting much for my money. But who knows?

    Guess what? I've paid up again.

    Well, still no recognition so I had to google them. Despite their impressive deeds I'm no wiser about their music but glad for their support. Welcome aboard the Dee train boys.

    I don't understand the question. If you are a true Dees supporter, you sign on. Simple really. I can't see any reason not to renew. I decided a few years ago to just roll it over from year to year - no decision to make.

    I'm a Dees supporter thus I'm a member. Anything else is half-hearted. Do we accept half-hearted performances from our team? No. Why should it be any different for supporters? We get our arse kicked, we come back next week and have another go.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
