Rob, although living in LA, is a member here; we've been to a couple of games together.  Other musically oriented Demon supporters are David Bland who some may remember from both the Go!! Show and Kommotion (he also attended games with Rob and myself) and the drummer from the Huxton Creepers, Archie Law.

Bruce Woodley is a huge Demon

Had a coffee with him before the Jeelong Preliminary Final

We were both Nervous Wrecks!! :)

 

I can't believe that nobody has posted this song, featuring Demon tragics Scared Weird Little Guys, the late Jim Keays, Wilbur Wilde and Russell Robertson, and brilliant footage of Barassi, Smith (Norm and Shaun), the Wiz, the Ox, Neita, Allen Jakovich, Big Carl, Jacko and of course my idol, among many others.

It's not that.

It's just that there has never been a player with the number 666.

I'll settle for 13 (Clarry, Yze, Jakovich)

For Demons supporters  I'm surprised no one has  said "Number of the Beast" :lol:

You must all be too young ;)

I did suggest some 6.66 from Salmon Hater. Got no love alas.

I love the Scared Weird Little Guys.

I remember walking through the MCG carpark after a Melbourne match in the 1980s. I walked past Jim Keays, who was also wearing a Demons scarf. I said "g'day Jim" or something similar. He looked at me, said nothing, looked away then kept walking. Oh well, never meet your heroes they say !! I suppose I shouldn't speak ill of the dead.

Gus said on the latest podcast that he had made a play list for his dad called sticksy 2.0 on Spotify. I have been enjoying it all week.

The songs have new meaning knowing that they have been selected by gus for his dad

That's actually a killer playlist, feels like some late night Rage on ABC back in the 80s/90s or 3am drunk at a party somewhere

It's a little known fact that the 'Can Can' song is actually the 'Galop Infernal'. 

It is literally the song of the wild party going on in hell, personally led by the devil. Written by Jacques Offenbach as a mad parody of all the snobbery of classical music and performance at the time.

It also will lift you hair off your head with a good sound system or headphones and a proper orchestra and choir going at the full speed intended. Best I can find is from 1991!

 

INFERNAL GALLOP

This ball is original

with an infernal gallop

let's all give the signal!

Long live the hellish gallop!

Let's give the signal

Friends, long live the ball!

La la la la la!

hoochie coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

 

I got a black cat bone

I got a mojo too

I got the Johnny Concheroo too

I’m gonna mess with you

 

I’m gonna make the girls lead me by

the hand

Then the world’s gonna know

The hoochie coochie man

 

But you know I’m here

Everybody knows I’m here

Yeah you know I’m  a hoochie

coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

 

On the seventh hour

On the seventh day

On the seventh month

The seven doctors said

He was born for good luck

And you’ll see I got seven

hundred dollars 

Don’t you mess with me  

 

But you know I’m here 

Yeah you know I’m a hoochie

coochie man

Everybody knows I’m here

It was, but I learned the entire drum solo when younger and the rhythm still sticks inside the head. So I play it, moderately often.

As an obsessive Bond fan, John Barry always calms me. Multiple Bond scores will very likely settle the nerves today.

The connection of what's at the end of Satan's rainbow and the cool demon at the end of the clip complete seem appropriate;

And  as the Temper Trap are huge MFC supporters a shout out to them also

 

Fader is a great track. Love it. As West Aussies, pity they're not playing Optus. I figure they're probably not a band anymore.

Love this one: Oh I do love my Saturday arvo

 


This one really gets me in the feels, reminds me of walking to the footy with the old man, he resplendent in Dees merch from head to toe. Love ya dad, miss you and heading along to the G, Waverley, Kardinia park and the grounds in between.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
