Hey Guys,

 I've got some badges from the GF with Family names on them. The names are "Demunk", "EnBom", "Emmitt" and "Estes". If anyone knows these families and can find out if they would like these Badges sent to them I am happy to send them to them. I'm not looking for any money, it would of course be free of charge. I just think it would be a nice thing to do and something I would appreciate if I were in their shoes. 

Anyway let us know. And well done on the win guys. Most of Perth were going for you guys. 

Cheers

 West Coast Tragic

    Hi Demonlanders,

    Remember the badges with members names that MFC gave out to WA fans during the finals?
     

    I’m desperately trying to track down the badge with my last name as a Christmas gift for my father. 
     

    Does anyone have any contacts in WA? I’m trying eBay too but thought I’d reach out to the hardcores first 😆

    I was hoping the footy club would send at least one out for each membership to make up for us missing the Grand Final and games. I know COVID has hit the club hard and this is just an extra cost but the merchandise windfall surely would make this small token of appreciation to members a possibility.

    This is not intended as a knock on the club just a thought.

    Good thought!

    One of these would be a terrific souvenir!

    Surely more valuable than the Koh-I-Noor diamond.

    I was planning to donate the badges I got to the Western Australian Museum, where I work, as they are part of a fascinating sub-story of this historical sporting event here in WA. However, if I have anyone's badge here on Demonland who wants it, I'll certainly be happy to repatriate them back to Victoria. Badges I've got are: Corkill, Dent, Bayly & Ricketts.

    Sounds more like they belong to an English county cricket team!

    This is such a kind gesture. 🙂

    I've merged this thread with an earlier one started by a WCE fan who was at the GF and is looking for the Dees corresponding to his / her badges.

    See the opening post above yours.

    @Gary Pert, when we all watch the replay on the big screen at the MCG, maybe we could have badges handed out with members names on them. Like when we pick up membership scalves at the beginning of normal seasons  It's a lot more logistically difficult but can be done.

    Decided against posting a tasteless comment although there’s a tonne of them that spring to mind 😉

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
