Looking for Old Demons Games 1982-1984

Featured Replies

Posted

Guys

I am a vfl/afl video collector, trying to collect a copy of every single televised home and away game, for all teams, for the era of 1982-1992. I need just 30 more games to go.

Amongst the 30 games i need, are just 4 Melbourne games between 1982-1984 only.

Would anyone on here have any old replays taped in those years, where you still have the tapes?

I know its a longshot, but i have tried everything: Name a game/sports delivered, ch 2, ch 7, vfl, afl, the competing clubs, youtube, ebay, torrents, facebook etc.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

thank you

From 82 to 86 I think I was curled up in the foetal position in the corner of the room in those days.

you would still be in that foetal position slowly rocking even now wouldn't you Norm??

Only after my my nappy had been changed

Yes. We had a brief respite when Northey was in charge and we could actually stand up and be proud.

But it is still the foetal right now....Reminds me of the movie "what about Bob...."

Gday Langers great that you actually have these and managed to preserve them.

I. Like you have been trying unsuccessfully to get games specifically from 1976-78 without any success whatsoever. The name a game organization was not able to help and my only other suggestion is channel 7 BUT they may well have shredded these now.

If you have any games from 76-78 I would be very interested in getting copies and will pay good $$ for them.

Cheers

I've been hoping to get Dee's games from 82-87 for a bit now, early games of Wilson, Lyon, even Connolly (who I've never seen play but have heard he was quite promising) and course the great R Flower. Anyone have any games of this era on DVD?

Please hurry up and do that.


I did some video trading with Dr Gonzo a while back, and recall he had a few games from that period. Maybe send him a PM?

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
