Isn't it in Simpson St, near Albert St?     I haven't noticed it in Lansdowne St.

Hi JJC. Yup, you're right. I just checked a map. It's on one of my cycle routes and it's always there when I go past between March & September.

I'm not normally a baseball cap wearer but how validated do I feel atm, quietly proudly sporting this everywhere (in unlockeddownland - sorry...). And I get to do it for two weeks.

At least.

As I mentioned elsewhere last week, my demons scarf was stolen last Wednesday from my Geelong front garden, in broad daylight.

Infuriated I wrote a stongly worded letter to the Editor of The Geelong Advertiser. Nothing in the paper the next day, but to their credit , they published on Friday 10th September, before the game.

I have re-created the letter as published, but the Headline was the sub-eds words not mine:

                                        "GIVE SCARF BACK OR THE CATS ARE GONNA GET IT

                 A local just stole my Melbourne Football Club scarf placed on a tree in my front garden.

                  As a result, the 'karma' bus is coming for the probable Cats supporter and their team.

                                              Would the theif please return it as it belongs to my son"

 

The last sentence isn't true but I thought i'd try and tug the heart strings. Still no scarfback but I have since put 3 others up.

I like to think I may have helped in some way to get the PF result.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
