I was lucky enough to be able to take my kids today to the team photos today  , the experience was great for everyone 

A special moment for us and to be able to cherish and to show my wife RIP 

It was well worth the money. the players all smiled and we had a ball 

Did anyone else go along ?  

thankyou

Mark, my full condolences to you mate. I remember last September you mentioned your wife was terminally ill. Glad your kids had an absolute ball!

If only there was someone on here who could get the message to Dec Keilty that he's an AFL player now and the rules state he has to go get a fancy haircut! 

Spencer I've given up on, but I like his plan that if he grows a beard he might play more like Gawn.

Damn, what a dream come true that would be for Demon loving kids. Gives me goosebumps. It's even more than running out with the team IMO, because you can frame that, hang it up on the wall and remember it forever.

I'd probably have told my kids to get out of the way so I could squeeze in too :)

Well done to all involved at the club for that, included the players. I hope it gives something you and the kids can cherish forever, Mark!

part of the deal is that we also get a framed picture sent to us , this picture was taken by another demon supporter for me , So i could have it today. and yes I think i wanted just a little more than the kids , pretty sure it was 4 kids not 3 and 1 adult ...  you could have unto 5 people in your picture, 

thank you it will be cherished for a long time.

I went along today Mark as part of the Casey Demons/Melbourne supporter group. 4 of us had our picture taken with the team. As a supporter group we get invited to participate in the team photo shoot.

All of us commented on your family photo and we loved the way the players lifted up your youngest son so he could actually be seen in the photo.

It will certainly be a treasured memory.

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.

    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
