If I recall, you were going to listen while weeding.

'Weeding'. Hmmmm...

Mind blowing indeed.

Too early ;-)

Garry Lyon Torp that went 80 metres.

Pissing down with rain, cold and 5th row from the fence and didn't care.

Got soaked that day. But it was well worth it. 
12 months earlier was traumatic and still leaves a bad taste today…

But last September certainly makes a huge difference!!

Getting on to 4 months since that fateful day. Time to watch the replay again.

for the 20th time 


Every time I see Nick McCallum (or Clint Stanaway) on the news I wonder if he’s still feelin’ it. Then I think, Of course he is! It’s the Demons!!! 😁❤️💙

Friends, one thing I have noticed since that immortal night of 25th of September is how much more magnanimous i am towards other clubs and their triumphs. There was once a time when I could not watch Collingwood in the 90GF, or the Handbaggers in 2007 or the Western Bulldogs in 2016 - I was so envious and jealous. Now, I can settle down with You Tube and appreciate their victories for what they are worth - something, yes, something in the scheme of things -, even if none of them approach our canonical 38 seconds or whatever it is.    

Waking down the bay the other day and a kid ran past me with a demons hat on, too quick to give him the Go Dees, but he ran past me when he was going back and this time I did and he gave the Go Dees back and had the biggest smile on his face.

It was a look of pure joy and I'm so glad that our young supporters are able to smile about their team and not just live in hope like most of us have.

 

Will NOT let this thread slip into obscurity. At least not until round one. 
I was thinking about the whole club culture thing and I remembered something I wanted to share on here. 
At the GF replay on December 5th after proceedings had wrapped up I got talking to a lovely couple. They told me how they emigrated from England about 20 years ago and at the insistence of friends they became Essendon supporters. 
They were both decked out head to toe in Demons regalia. I asked them what made them change allegiance and they told me it was when their son started working at the Club. Turns out they’re the parents of Oliver Herd, MFC Footy Analyst. I asked them if he was happy working for the Club and they couldn’t have been more glowing in their praise. They said Oliver absolutely loves his job, and everyone he works with and it’s an awesome environment in which to work. His mum was so proud when she pointed to the coach’s box and said, “he gets to sit up there with the coaches!” She also told me the players are all really nice to him. He even sometimes hangs out with Tracc and Salo socially. He must  like the Christian name Christian. See what I did there?😁

Che?

To answer Tim’s question: yes, LitD did have something to do last Wednesday. It’s not that he forgot about it; he jumped the gun and did it on Tuesday. 

I wish they'd put the FoxFooty post match back on Kayo. 

They were still in shock after the onslaught. Very watchable.

Here you go 


One of the fantastic things about the Demons awesome flag victory is no matter what happens during the day since Sept 25, I’m only  3 mins 30 seconds from being deliriously happy again, that snapshot of our 7 goals in the third is just pure joy:

Harmes to Fritsch

then Fritsch

Followed by BBB

Brayshaw (unbelievable courage)

Trac - pure skill

Sparrow - - great goal of a step in a phone booth

Clarry / Jacko handball perfection

I’m not sure if we will ever see a better trio of goals, than the last three in 30 plus seconds to finish the quarter!

Sept 25 to now - everyday has a happy ending 😃

 

Optus Stadium will always be a home game for me. We get an extra two per year!

The youngsters in JB, LJ and TS were incredible. The occasion didnt intimidate them.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
