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

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. ?

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

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?

>10 year member

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....

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
