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 😉

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
