Hire a chartered plane

Is @Tarax Club Gary?

Tarax Club is our NT correspondent from memory. 

If you're reading this @Tarax Club, I'm currently stuck in Darwin if you know of somewhere the locals Dees' supporters go to watch? 

I doubt there's many more than 100 of us rusted-on up here - so should be within recommendations. :) 

Sadomasochistic behaviours know no bounds.

Skuit, if you're currently "stuck in Darwin"  my only recommendation would be the recreational lounge at old Impex worker's village at Howard Springs,  Social distancing may apply. You're right Demon's supporters here probably wouldn't raise a centurion's cohort. ?

I've met him at least once, at a pre-season game in Canberra.  Possibly Aaron Davey's first or second outing? 

As I recall, he has been variously involved with the club over the years, particularly as a volunteer stats gatherer/validator.

Surely there's a way.

Yeah, he's a life member of the club. He was also a timekeeper at the G I think and responsible for the siren. Really nice guy with some great stories to tell.

The club should help him out here. What a remerkable person.

 

Get him in,  as a ball collector.

I'm the opposite. Over the last 50 years I've been to too many games I wish I had missed.

 

This would be a great thread of misery stories.

My clubhouse leader would be QB (2014?) where we kicked 3 goals for the day and the first one (N Jones) was in the first 45 secs of the game.

At least they can now get a life. Small mercies. 

It's like Notre Dame is burning all over again...

I caught the airport rail link to Brisbane CBD in 2018 (for the GC game) and got chatting to Gary.

Very friendly fella, knows his footy and love his Dees.

It’s a pity he can’t go to the game, but when people like Eddie McGuire, Peggy O’Neill and Brendan Gale can’t attend....

That would be their choice of course 

Hats off to Eddie For letting the Gavin Brown clan see their sons Tyler  first game  after Eddie gave up his superbox 

Did Col Hutchison get to the Cats' game? He's an official AFL statistician, isn't he? He could probably have gone last night.

The Tigers' Dave Norman had not missed a Tigers game since 1973, but his run stopped a couple of years ago. He named his son Jack Dyer.

A cohort? I would have thought Darwin was more of a contubernium.

Came into this thread thinking it was about letting Gary Lyon back into the inner sanctum after his banishment for choosing Neeld

Zig and Zag? The Peters Ice-cream men. Who could forget their foray onto the Albert Park ground when the Dees played Sth Melbourne?

Now that tickles a memory, but that was soolong ago, i would have been outer end on the terrace with the cheers squad.......I think....

Surely Demonland can turn this into a competition.

Finish this sentence, "When people like Eddie McGuire, Peggy O’Neill and Brendan Gale can’t attend...."

I'll start with, "the world is a better place"

    Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
