Long shot guys.

 

I have a vintage Dees scarf that was left at Richmond station on Friday night. Passenger was likely on a midnight Glen Waverley train.

It has a dees patch, original Gary Lyon badge and a 10 year member pin.

Its a beauty and I’m sure there’s someone out there that is rueing it’s loss!

 

let me know if any one knows who’s it is!

Go dees!

 

Well done for trying to find the owner....

I had the same thing happen to me on Friday night... I found a tissue laying on the ground just outside the Cricketer's Arms just before midnight and went on the hunt to find it's owner... Fair to say a Geelong supporter walking past claimed it within 5 minutes :D

Nice work mate. Contact the club and put photos of it on Facebook, Twitter etc..

it will be reunited 

 I have a 31 year old long scarf that i bought at the MCG at the beginning of ‘87, i would be quite upset if i ever lost it

 


if anyone found a bamboo cheese platter and jewelled hip flask on the train, please get in touch with uncle bitters

I throw my scarf to the Salvo's every year in an attempt to raise the appearance of increasing Demons supporters in Perth.

No evidence that it's working.

I do a similar thing to help promote the club to potential new supporters.

 

Myself I get the little sticker for car number plates we receive in our membership package and stick them on random peoples cars.

I've done this to a few of my work mates, see how long it takes them to realise. ?

Print up sheets of them ;)

Good stuff mate! With a bit of luck the owner will look here or check with the club.

Gary Lyon badge and a 10 year member pin? It could have been ditched as part of a ceremonial cleansing. 

Edited by Skuit

I think Neeld should have held on until he earned the 10 year badge.  Going early was a sign of things to come.  Understand the Gazza pin, but why leave the vintage scarf on the platform?  Has his train (integrity or whatever) left on the midnight train?

Somewhere along the Glen Wavery line.

Assuming they are still a member, it wouldn't be hard for the club to filter their membership database to match those possibilities and send out an email. It'd be fun! They could offer a reward for clues, throw in a whole ceremony of returning it to the owner, hell Garry Lyon could turn up.

Keep an eye out for Selwood's mojo.

Yep, there’s enough information there to narrow it down to a small few. Great work!

Not that easy.
I'm a 15yr member who lives on the Murray River and was on that train line Friday night.

[insert joke along the lines of 'just how drunk were you?']

But quite true, that filtering would just be to get the best tree to shake. Or the best place to try to roll a snowball. Or the best thing thing to metaphor at.

Maybe the best thing to do is just send it to Garry Lyon and give him the mission of returning the scarf to his personal fan. He's got media to work with.

 


Also a privacy element. Not sure the club can filter through member locations to narrow down the person who lost a scarf....

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
