We walked past it about 2 bays over as we were leaving. Heard a massive roar and looked over to see what was happening - The Wiz once again putting on a show. I had to explain to my 5yo who Jeff Farmer was, gonna rip out the Dynamic Demons 2000 video for him to educate himself.

Saw him many times as an 22yo new Demons member. He deserves it all. He lifted when Lyon was on the field and did some things that are brilliant.

Love him, get him on board

That great mark on Garry Lyon's crook back is one of my first Melbourne memories. I have some fleeting memories of footy games from before then, but this is the only one I can pinpoint the game it happened. I watched it with my grandpa at the G from behind/right of that mark.

It was a ripper, and so was he. Must admit I grew to hate him while he was at the dockers, but that was because he was ours, and he always turned it on against us!

I just hope he is on Kobe's ear telling him to pick the Dee's when the time comes for father son nomination. We need a second coming of the wiz (and not a second purple Jesus).

Glad Jeff's heart still beats true for the red and the blue.

I think it’s pretty clear where father son loyalty will be placed.

If he’s in Melbourne now, does anyone know where his young bloke is playing? He was with the Mandurah Mustangs.... assuming he’s followed Dad to Melbs?

Hopefully he can do an Open Mike or, even better, a Demonland podcast... would love to hear some of the stories and his thoughts on the club.

The boys on the Deebrief podcast did an interview with the Wiz last night. Was a great listen! Talked about his love for the club, his kids and that famous celebration!

Suggest you all get on your favourite podcast app prontissimo and check it out. It was excellent!

Jeffy has hope Kobe is going to be good enough and hopefully picked up by the Dees.

Will never understand why the Wiz changed from #33 to #8 after the 2000 season, where he produced one of the greatest seasons you will ever see from a forward pocket.

He lost all his powers when he ditched the 33.

Mate! It was a ripper wasn't it! Best interview I've heard for ages. Aside from DL ones of course!

Absolutely loved it how when asked 'Melbourne or Freo?' he said Melbourne without missing a beat!

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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.

    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
