Yep. Apart from the birth of my children my most cherished memories are of seeing the 56, 57, 60 and 64 flags. I went home very unhappy in 58.

Oh to once again go to the footy expecting to win and rarely being disappointed. 

Hard to believe, these days, I guess but just maybe... from 2028 onwards ...

I recently dug up this photo of the players having a celebratory beer after the 1957 Grand Final.

Don't think so SWYL.    Pretty certain that that's Big Bob on the far right.  Memory fading, and struggling to recognise the others.  Can anyone help me out?   .........   or will this take the thread too far off track?

At least he doesn't have Geelong in his top 8.

It's going to be glorious watching them crash and burn this year.

God what I wouldn't give just to see us win ONE flag! (and not die of a heart attack in the minutes leading up to it!).

Agree, just one would be a great start, before I croak preferably?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
