Flying the flag



Recommended Posts

Flag flying at letterbox, 2021 scarf on fence, many other scarves around the front door.

Daughter home-cooking pies and red-and-blue cup cakes. 

Wife has gathered scarves from last 10 years and sewn them into a throw rug/blanket.

Canadian Club and Shiraz for the game (probably start about 12.01pm as the nerves set in).

Glenfiddich 18 ready for the celebration.

Now 'flying the flag' 24/7 from my part of Brisbane, with a little tribute to the fallen Demons of my generation of supporting the MFC.

It is fantastic to see how many demons flags and banners around. Such an outpouring from the faithful. I even found out there is a demons fan 4 doors up from me Ive never met!

a flag would be so amazing and would reignite the flame of demon passion for years to come. We have been dormant too long

In a place called Amoonguna, near Alice this afternoon, Bulldogs colours, window down but no one around so didn’t shout, neighbors flying Demons colours, few oldies sitting out front, let rip with Go Demons, got some good cheers back.

 

Erldunda pub in the centre covered in red and blue balloons for the Imanpa mob, will be insane down there tomorrow

My Dad's place in Meredith, Victoria.

He was born in February, 1965, so here's to hoping he witnesses the first Dees flag in his 56 years tomorrow. 

Go Dees!

I was born the same month, same year. His angst is my angst.

Got on the train yesterday wearing my retro Demons scarf and the train guard sees me and gives me a big GO DEMONS!!

Get a few go Demons around town and I think 90% of neutral fans and even non AFL are behind us.

Took a bunch of scarfs into the office today and made everyone in my team an honorary Melbourne supporter for the day, much to the disgust of my boss who's a Lions/Bears fan from day dot, but even he took it in good spirits.

GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!!

The good thing that stands out to me with all the banners and decorations for either clubs is that people respect what others have done with no damage to displays. Not so sure if we were playing some other clubs. You fill in the clubs name.

At the risk of perpetuating stereotypes, and it's not a Rangey, but the the Austin Healey is draped in Demon scarves. 

Bloody windy today but I'll do a follow up with them all out the front of the house tomorrow.  Till then, pip pip!

Turns out I am way too lazy to put all those scarves up so this will have to do.

Canberra here, got a few strange looks from dog walkers....

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
