Just saw Nick Stevens at Subway in Lower Plenty chowing down on some tucker

I think he lives down that way - I know he plays cricket there.

An odd place for a well paid footballer to live one would have thought?

If you see my initial post it was about how he looked fit and it was excited for his ON FIELD performance in '07. I think you will find there were other members of this forum asking me about his girlfriend. Who I maintain looked young. Nothing wrong with that. Even a compliment to some.

Anyway boys we all want to see Dunn playing some good football in '07 so that when he and his girlfriend are in the Supermarket at Surfers next year, it is not just one mad Dee's fan that spots him, but every AFL supporter knows who he is.

I will accept your 'apology' :lol: By the way - you never did tell us your girlfriend/ wife rating !!! :lol:

Cheers to you Shmekel.

Not really, its a great area.

And he isn't the only AFL footballer around here.

Props to him for choosing Lower Plenty and its surrounds over the fakeness of Brighton!!!

Grew up there. Just a short walk down Black Street to Middle Brighton Station and a 20 minute train ride to Richmond and on to the G to see Robbie and the boys lose another one. Ah the memories :P

me too. we must have been on the same train. at least when we won a game then it felt like a premiership and the train ride home was far more bearable!

I believe a whole gang of Melbourne players were in Echuca last weekend for some sort of pre-marital turn for dear Robbo.

yeah a bux weekend away comprising of skirmish (paintball) and golf with plenty of [censored]. all the boys were invited, but not all could go. Injuries and prior engagements.

I have been a Dee's supporter for many many years. I also regularly visit demonland for game reviews but have never seen the need to add my opinion. That was until

I saw what was being written about Dunn and his girlfriend while they were in QLD. Rhino Richards and others, should be ashamed of the thoughtless comments they added last week. I can understand rating players and judging them on a personal level, they play the game and willingly put themselves out into the spot light. However the partners and families deserve much better than Dunn's girlfriend recieved. Dunn is expected to have a think skin, but im sure his girlfriend, if she knew what was said, would feel pretty degraded. They deserve a little more respect.

Hello Lynden

Sufers Paradise continues to be a Mecca for footballers. Over the past week:

- I saw Brad Johnson and Rowan Smith in Cavil Ave

- I was on the plane (from Melb to Cool) with Cam Bruce (didn't have the balls to talk to him)

- I walked past Greg Dear on the beach

- I see Warrick Capper most days on the Highway and saw Jacko meeting him a couple of weeks ago

- Apparently The Ox was here last week, unfortuantely I didn't have the pleasure of seeing him.

And you thought Melbourne was the home of football!

This is an old one, but when I first got down to Melbourne in 2005 (at last! Regular Football!) one of the first games I got to was Demons-Carlton at the dome. (not a good omen, you could say)

Sure we lost, which was annoying, but I got a bit of amusement when a couple of dodgy looking teenagers sat down next to me and started commenting about the game. Fair enough comments, though they seemed to think they knew everthing. It wasn't until Mark Thompson sat down directly behind 'us' that I realised I was pressing for room against Gary Ablett Jr. Dodgy looking teenager, definately!

Nice way to arrive for a year of constant football... I mean, living in Melbourne.

I was at Stakes too in the birdcage and saw Bruce, Brock, Ward, Greeny, Buckets (and maybe PJ) also with Troy Simmonds and Kane Johnson. I thought I saw Scotty Thomson with them at one point but am slightly unsure.

Anyway thats my shameless player spottings.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
