Standards seem to have dropped. 

Pleased that Others have identified the lack of a good wine to wash the repast down.

Was an adopted practice to spend time preparing the afternoon tea with a secret ingredient in order to divert attention away from the constant loss.

We renewed the practice at Tassie where we created rolls including local products.Bruny Island cheese, Evansford smoked wallaby salami, pickled walnuts from Ross and a Deloraine chutney.

We of course committed the cardinal sin of not having the Gluewien in the thermos.

We were fortunate that the Swiss army pocket knife was approved by security who appreciated that it would not only be used to divide the rolls amongst the masses but would come in handy for slashing wrists if required.

We refused the later course as mentioned earlier we forgot the wine. Lucky.

I had an experience at AAMI park during the year that could explain how the knife got though security.

I took my 87 year old Kiwi dad to the rugby  earlier in the year, the first time he had been to a sporting venue in about 20 years.  As he shuffled up to the security area he emptied his pockets while the security guy wanded him.  As he was standing there I noticed on the table next to him his iPhone, house key and his pocket knife!  The guard did not bat an eyelid.  Back into the pocket it all went and into the ground shuffled an 87y.o. knife wielding supporter.

He was quoted as:

“If a Melbourne Demons supporter is the stereotype of someone who enjoys the good things in life and has a refined palate, then yes. I’ll take that. I hope Melbourne supporters will identify with that.

Well said good man.

Yes I’ve always wondered why some see our stereotype as a bad thing

Melbourne supporter - drives nice car, earns good money, goes skiing

Collingwood supporter - not particularly smart, no teeth, on dole and perhaps renting house from a Melbourne supporter. 

I know which one I would prefer

Yeah that is true. I guess all that 'toffeeness' doesn't translate to the rigors and brawn of a footy game!

That's not true about the Collingwood supporters. I don't think you are eligible for the dole while in gaol.

I really never understood the Melbourne stereotype... oh no, how horrible to be considered educated, well off, and having good taste. I would much rather be toothless, dumb and on the dole.

Anyone remember the old juice bottles called Footy Juice?

My mother in law (pies supporter) used to take them filled with port.

    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.

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
