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....

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
