Grand Final Celebration at the G


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Really great day. Wonderfully organized by the club. I thought the presentation was wonderful. Great to have Jones and Jetta farewelled properly. Amazing to see Daniher so emotional. Fantastic for the players to have their kids and partners there too. 
Well done to the club. This will never replace the joy of seeing this happen live, and hopefully we can experience that in 2020, but it was a wonderful experience nonetheless.

Well done to all involved in organising that. What a great day.

Garry as MC was a good choice. He is just a natural public speaker 

Loved how they did the premiership cup relay like format. 

Loved seeing former players there including McDonald, Schwarz, farmer, Grinter &any of the older legends.

Can't help but think of Jim & how he would have enjoyed this.

Good to see Todd Viney be part of the cup presentation & I hope he & jack get a photo of the cup together. 

Good to hear Simon speak and can I just say how amazing Neale daniher is. Yes his speech has virtually gone & his hands have weakened but to walk up on stage on his own & stand there then continue to walk around the ground, just so good to see him there.

And it was bloody good to be back at the G

That was a great day. Obviously nothing would equal being at the game for the win but I feel like the season is now complete, we actually did win it and now it’s time to move on.

i feel like the club did a great job, I certainly appreciate the effort they went to in putting this together.

 Looking forward to being at the G next year as we win another, Go Dees!

Shed a few tears. Sang the song until my throat was raw. A great day. Let's hope we can be there for the real thing next year.

The applause that The Rev got was outstanding. I think it would have gone on forever if Garry hadn't stepped in.

 

Premiers!

A very enjoyable day, kids had a great time. Let’s do it again next year. Had to laugh when they put JJ’s name on the scoreboard as Jordan. Was waiting for one of the regulars here to correct them.

Happy for all the fans that got to attend today, i was blessed to attend live here in Perth and still riding on the high of the win. I hope today on the rewatch those that missed out got to feel something close to what i did.

One of the things i'll never forget about this premiership is the reaction i saw from my family, they were as excited as i was when we had won. They've all seen multiple premierships on the TV supporting the Eagles and Hawks, but never had the opportunity to attend a grand final before. They all said it was the best experience going to the footy they've ever had and they were all as emotional as me and all the Dee's fan sitting around me in the cheer squad when we blitzed the doggies.

I hope you mean 2022.

A good day but sadly not the joy of the real day. Still we  won the premiership and that is the big one. IMO it was a well planned day that went off well. Gary was a good MC. 

You made it OD!?? ....very glad to hear this

Just got home from what was a great day. The club did a fantastic job to organise this for us & how good was the applause for Neil Daniher when he got up on the stage? Very emotional. Just loved Hibbo's mini run to boundary with the cup too.😁

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
