Happy Mother Day

Woke up and had to pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming again . Red and Blue all over on the outside from bruising .

First time I can remember to the Dees on top of the ladder ( not sure what happened in 2005 ) . First time I am watching On the Couch .  First time I am watching most other games . First time I am happy to talk footy with anyone . First time on Demonland . Plus lots more .

Footy is much more fun when your team are doing well .

    Yeah it's All a bit surreal.  I watched the game on the deck of my Airbnb in Sydney so I couldn't yell like normal but I didn't really think that we would lose even when they got within a kick at the end

    Funny you mention that, since we’ve been flying I think I’ve watched pretty much every other game. Something I haven’t done in many years. How good is footy

    I wasn’t being serious Hutch! Just the sense of positiveness that has not been felt since the early 2000’s about my club.

    My almost 6yr old is wrapt every time I tell him we’ve won so that is a bonus as well, I think I’ve got him hooked to the Dees.

    It’s amazing how your expectations of the team change. Wasn’t worried about losing last night at any point, whereas in prior years I would have spent the entire game waiting for the Swan’s to run over the top. Nothing lasts forever, so need to enjoy this moment.

    I, too, have only recently discovered Demonland. How cool are the faithful here?! There’s such a great vibe here. Everyone is so bl00dy nice! Sure, there’s the odd spot-fire of narkiness here and there, but in general Demonlanders are awesome!!! Oh, and...

    GO THE MIGHTY DEEEEEZ !!!

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.
