You guys need to relax lol

Just heard the Old v New version of the Richmond song on Triple M, there was literally no difference, maybe slightly higher clarity for the digital age

Ya'll need to take a chill pill

You're new here so maybe you haven't heard that us Demonlander's have built up a strong immunity to chill pills.

WE FREAK OUT ABOUT EVERYTHING. WE'VE EARNED THE RIGHT. :P

I'm guessing it will be along these lines.

They may even encourage fans to boot scoot at games.

That was great .... the Lou Richards cameo at the end was very special

 

Apparently Melbourne requested a death metal version, trying to bring a different crowd to the footy

Will admit the Lou cameo was good  but there was also plenty of grade A cheese in there too. The Freo boot scooters (as mentioned), the Bulldogs ballroom waltz and the Richmond rap were bloody appalling. Freo's song is bad enough so that was no great loss. But why ruin  what is easily the best club song in the league with that dreck?

the Bulldogs waltz was perhaps a play on where the song came from... Sons of the Sea which was a popular music hall song

I agree the Tiger rap was really bad

A couple of the old blokes have soiled their underwear and you have made their nurses very upset - some of them are going to need more than chill pills

I for one will be starting a thread to ban the recommendation of said chill pills.

Who remembers the B side : "The Footy Song"  ?

It's pretty sad, but I remember it word for word.

“Because it’s football Season & that’s the reason” 

is it that one?

That is horrible. Why change it if you aren’t actually going to change it. 

It sounds like a crappy midi file with lyrics.

To be fair Triple M probably don't have the original file

I'm hoping for a Norwegian Black Metal band!

And change the name of the team song to Bergtrollets Hevn.

Not a fan.

It's subtle, but none of the new versions seem as strong as the old.

If I was a Hawthorn or Bulldogs fan I'd be doubly annoyed as their versions smack of weakness.  There's something way too nice about them.

Or an original idea....

"When the football season comes around again,

And the fans are swarming to the grounds again,

There's a kind of fever that keep us on our toes,

Hear the fans are roaring, as the whistle blows!

Low is scoring and your team's behind, still you never throw in the glove,

Because its football season, and that's the reason its the time of the year that we love."

 

Sorry, never heard of it :blink:

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
