Was going to put this in London Demons group. Mods, maybe merge?

The Deeaspora is up and about. Those of us around the world surely feel for all the Melbourne based crew, not being able to go watch the GF at the G. But also, welcome to our world. Fortunately, we all live in an amazing time in which we can connect, cheer and, hopefully, fall into flabbergasted heaps of joyous rapture wherever we are, together. 

If anybody is in the Netherlands and wants to go through this with fellow tragics, send me a PM. Similarly, wherever you are in the world, use this thread to connect with other Dees fans. [censored] i am so excited, nervous, but also quite sure that this is it, and we are all in this together. Go the Demons and love to my Dad who lives in the US and who peruses these boards. This is what all those rainy, ****ty days at the G watching us getting belted were for.

    Thanks AmDamDemon.  I am in the British Virgin Islands.  Pretty sure there are no other Melbourne supporters here (but would love to be proven wrong!).  I will be watching the game in the early hours while on a Zoom with friends and family.  Then planning to spend the day drinking at the beach, win or lose.  If there are any Demons out there, come on down to Cane Garden Bay!

    We’re having a family friendly viewing with big screen projector and BBQ in Nairobi 🇰🇪 
     

    BBQ at 11.30am with game set to start at 12.15 local time. 
     

    If there’s anyone out there who’d like to join, get in touch.

    Great post. It is really hard being so far away from all of this, but knowing we are all in it together does make it marginally easier. I hope you find someone in your neck of the woods!

    Am based in seattle, so if any seattle based dees pleas reach out...Would love to find someone to share in all of this with!

    Based in Japan.

    I know there are a few of us in Asia, so if you don’t have any plans on GF day, give us a hoy!

    Love the idea of how far and wide we are spread. Gonna be some tough time zones and some confused neighbours in early hours around the place. The WA twighlight game is perfect for Europe, game starts just before midday, almost like normal. Go Dees

    I’ll be watching from Hong Kong!

    (Truth be told, I don’t want to watch it at all; would much rather be sedated to 3 hours and enjoy the replay)

    I  think I share your feeling to be honest - every time I payed attention live to the game we played this year  we didn't do so well.

    You guys in Japan and HK  should swim over here to Taiwan - there's no sharks - the locals swear. ;)

    What's the best way to see the game live that the international community recommend?

    We’re lucky to have the ABC Australia Channel here which cover some games, but I mainly use the ‘Watch AFL’ app which stream all games and events internationally.

    Bonsoir from France.
    I don’t think there are other Demon supporters near me, but that hasn’t stopped me from flying the scarf in the car, putting that little membership sticker on the number plate and wearing the MFC cap whenever I go out. Plus I’m wearing the jumper around the house.

    Big screen awaits. Just need the cheese platter. 😀

    Vive les Démons.

    That's not true. They sneek up on you as you cannot see their fin's anymore.

    I'm in Paris (south), and I know there are a few others around. Not sure I can face Belushi's or Café Oz, will just watch at home, though I think there's a bar/café somewhere that's doing something as well.

    Does wearing a demon hat at Pussers classify  one as a local demon ?

    In the Middle East, somewhere very sandy. And there goes a goat in demons gear. Kinda fits. Plenty of Aussies watching at pubs, even a few demons fans among them.

    Hi Dees supporters. I've been a MFC/MCC supporter for over 50 years, and I'm currently stuck and cant get back. (Obvious reasons) 

    I'd give anything to be able to get back and see the game or at least with a buch of Dees fans.

    At least I bought a few things over to feel a part of it as possible.

    Go Dees

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
