I know what you're thinking. Melbourne only wins the opening game of a season once in a blue moon, a rare occurrence involving 13 full moons in a one calendar year. Well, the fact of the matter is

Jealous of everyone heading to the 'G. I organised for a new TV and audio to be installed this morning to welcome the footy in. My wife doesn't know yet, she's at the shops, I'm hoping it's done by

Just bought my 2 year old son his 1st pack of footy cards and the 1st card he grabbed was a Gold Coast card and he bent it in half hopefully a good omen

Just on Gold Coast Jeager O Meara has been stretched off from a NEAFL match with what looks like a serious knee injury.

His career could be on the line here.

O'meara may have done his knee in the NEAFL.

Hope for his sake that ain't so.

Let's hope he's okay.

Hoping to find a pub in Byron that shows the game with full audio. Taking a break from Bluesfest to watch the footy today and tomorrow.

The Tigers fan with us is happy, while the Bombers and Roos fans I'm on holiday with remain hopeful, along with me.

Really excited to see the team play today. Good luck to the 7 playing for the Dees for the first time. Looking forward to Hogan and VanDemon crunching a few GC players early

Am at the ground, sitting on the Robbie Flower wing.

Good points:

1) We outnumber them considerably. Them being the Suns fans.

2) The Robbie Flower wing has a lot of people in it. Could be a place to assemble in the future.

3) The new member's scarf is an improvement on last years. At least some imagination went into this one.

The test of my judgements will be reserved until after the match.

So my wife came home and I was sitting in front of the new tv with fox footy on.

She looked at me, looked at the tv, back at me and said "You're a dh"

She threatened to cancel my Melbourne trip however I countered with offering to take her anywhere she wants for dinner. I'm in the clear for now.

Bring on the game!

Tell her watching footy results in a testosterone surge. Mind you a loss is the equivalent of a very cold spoon.

One thing I also take solace in is that at least we don't look like a bunch of Ronald McDonald clowns when we take the field.

I liked the entry music. Sadly, the bells usually toll for us!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
