Have we beaten anyone yet? I'm not crying, we're all crying. This is for Neale, Jim, Robbie, Jonesy, Dean, Ron 😍 We have waited so long. And finally. After 57 long years. We have broken

To all my fellow Demonlanders, I opened that bottle of Wild Turkey tonight. Guess what? The cork dried out and I corked the bottle. Once I got it open, it was the sweetest taste of fulfilment. I thought i would cry, but the enjoyment of knowing we won with 15 minutes left in the last just allowed me and the family to enjoy the moment . What a feeling! Go Dee's. I love Youse all.

Well, that just makes it more memorable. "Hey remember the time when the Demons won the flag after 57 years and the [censored] wine had corked!!! How we laughed!!!!!"

A massive shout out to @Demonland

Keeping this site going (held up magnificently tonight!) through all the trash years so we all had somewhere to vent and now through Covid so we all have somewhere to celebrate.

I was there when Fitzroy kicked the highest score against us. I was there in 87. U was there in 88. I have been bruised, battered and emotionally scarred for 47 years. And it was all more than worth it. This is no normal premiership. This is 57 years. This is 13/. This is 16 of the last goals. This is the greatest sweetest feeling a Melbourne man could have. The agony has made it sweeter. We have done this together my friends. I am 47 . I have seen all my friends win flags, hang crapm on us, and no one even know anything like what we have been through.

To my Demons friends, family we have just witnessed the best of all 13. We are back. We will be envied and it our party. Congratulations every single on of us. No-one understands the sweetness like us hardcore folk.

 

A new world starts tomorrow and that feels amazing

Was he directly on him a lot? Saw Bowey shake hands with Treloar at the start. Then saw him out body Bailey Smith in a marking contest too. And was sat on by JJ for that hanger obviously. But certainly was on Weightman a lot including a number of crucial contests late.

175cm. Just turned 19. Predominantly played wing and half forward as a junior. Missed the whole year last year from covid. Interrupted VFL season. What a story.

His quick hands, reading of the player, ability to compete in the air for a small, so much to like. And he's still just getting a taste and hasn't really had a huge chance to do what he does best which is chop a game up with his kicking.

 

Bowey plays tall in a quite remarkable way and as you said, his kicking is a great asset already.  Very quick vision to see a target ... and quick disposal.  Not too shabby for 7 games played

Could be quite a player of the future.

We traded up in the draft to snare him and his acquisition looks to be another Taylor gem

Kept Hunt out of the team which was no mean feat.  A lot to like

Just a welfare check. Are you properly hydrated after all those tears? Drink lots of water. Rest. And ... GO DEMONS!!!

IT'S A GRAND OLD FLAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Suddenly feels so bizarre to think of those absolute darkest days and our undying loyalty during those times. How did we do it? How did we stay true?

All of a sudden, it seems almost strange that we did!

But wow, was it worth it, or what?! So worth it.

That game... had everything. As much as it was excruciating at the time, the fact that we were challenged and rose to the occasion (and how!) makes it so much sweeter. And I guess that's the story of the past 57 years as well.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
