Recently started posting, 50 years of following Dees, some dark times, Geelong 186, GF's in 88 & 2000 fortunately went into the bar at half time for both, all of the early 80's! Thank God for Robbie on the wing and when big Carl knocked out 5 of the Filth (apologies for reminiscing as totally inappropriate in this day & age re concussion!). Occasional joy 87 finals with exception of Jimmy's transgression.

Demonland makes me laugh out loud occasionally, so good for the soul, Ethan T is one particularly sick puppy, but in a good way.

Can see a Japanese link in Demonland whenever we lose.

Mutual hatred of umpires in particular razor ray and personally there is a blond haired twerp who is a shocker. Plus special mention for the three blind mice who umpired the North vs Melb game at the G earlier this year.

Anyway as you can see 50 years of The Dees does leave some mental Demons! But not tomorrow, we march into the finals, and hope for four great lucky weeks.

Making & winning one final would be great!

Welcome aboard!

There is a Queensland Demons Supporter Group on mfc website. 

Queensland:  QLD Demons - Debbie Willder - 0410 424 402 - [email protected] - Facebook

They may have a regular spot to watch games - worth a try as its always better to watch games with fellow Dee supporters!

 I recently went to the LeighOak (in Oakleigh, Melbourne) with a mate to watch the Dees v Norf game. It was actually an old haunt of our cricket club from days gone by, so a very very familiar place. Been there a coupla times in recent years to watch the footy and found it ok.

But on this occasion, they had rearranged all the chairs in serious rows in front of 2 tv's, and all the viewers were of a certain age - or well and truly older - and seated quietly watching the game.  Seriously, it was like walking into a church full of pensioners. I expected a collection plate to be passed around. It was so stifling.

At half time we left and went to the Forresters Arms up the road. Found a much better atmosphere and more animated crowd there.  I still hated the result,  but enjoyed the atmosphere much better than at the LeighOak.

So I say go where you enjoy the experience most.

I would just like to say to the New Members that there are, if you search between the lines, some little snippets that are some benefit to the younger generation on their journey through the minefield that is D'land.

But it isn't all in fun except for perhaps 90%......

Re the pub. Biffen is currently persona non grata  at most inner urban public houses so most of his boozing is conducted in more remote locales.

    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.

    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.
