That's what you get paid the big bucks for WCW.

I get paid in ways that transcend mere $$$, BBO. You should try it sometime.

He’s Ryan. He’s one of a group of OGs who run the DA. Pre-covid he didn’t miss a single match in 21 years, including every interstate game and even in China! 
And you’re right… he’s loyal and passionate to such a degree, it’s next level. He’s always in the second row at games and he’s one of the three guys who strike up our chants. I’m usually in the third row or front row and his enthusiasm is infectious. And on top of all that, he’s a really nice person. We tease him a little about his hair and about folks wanting to get a selfie with him and he takes it really well. He’s the best.

He reckons that’s not him in that meme, rather it’s his evil twin. 😁 The irony is that he does in fact have a twin, but they look nothing alike. 
edit: I pass on every positive comment on DL to him and the others. As for the OP’s thread opener… yeah nah. 

I was at the Suns game at the Gabba in 2018.

Ryan was the MC for the pre game.

Extremely capable performer in front of an audience.

I saw him at the G the following Saturday and congratulated him on job as host.

This week the MFC is “THANKING OUR WA MEMBERS” who are “THE BEST IN THE WEST” which they are. 😘❤️💙

Why thankyou! Haha

And the target that’s held up when one of our players is lining up for goal has names and dates of when it was hit. Tmac was closest to the bullseye for a while, until last week in Alice where BBB took his place as closest…

[DeeZone 7,710]

Thanks WCW how cool is that, should let the boys know that might get more hits.😀✅

I didn't see it anywhere else on here but I thought it was pretty amazing watching the cheer squad and surrounds sing happy birthday to Ryan on Saturday night (the printed photos were a good touch) after the players ran through a banner with his face on it as well! 

Wholesome reacts only everyone, what a great club and supporters!

Best kept secret ever!

Kate asked for a flag to be passed up to her and while not expecting a huge one, she took it and waved it like a pro…

At halftime she came down to wish Ryan happy birthday and ended up sitting with us for the rest of the match. And if anyone questions her passion for the Dees, she sat directly in front of me and let’s just say girl can barrack!

[Supreme_Demon 3,009]

Great to see the Melbourne Demons President Kate Roffey barracking hard with the Demon Army! Fantastic stuff!

I also loved seeing the old school 1980s Demons logo signs in the Demon Army!

Any chance we can cram something about Gus signing on the banner this week WCW? 😜

It may well get a mention… who knows. We’ve been told if ever we have an idea for banner content to let the OGs know. And if our DA WhatsApp chat is anything to go by, there’s likely gonna be no shortage of people suggesting it. ❤️💙 

edit: we’ve made this week’s banner already. Ignore the above. 🙃

Tonight we made the banner for our round 2 AFLW match. (The banner for round one tomorrow night is en route to Adelaide now.) This is the round 2 banner…

It says, “ON THE BIG STAGE AND ON THE RAMPAGE” which is a reference to the ‘G, now that the match has been moved to be curtain raiser for our QF. 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

Incidentally, we’re the only AFLW team that makes a banner for the girls to run through. Pretty sad for the other teams. 
 

Also, I’ve been tasked with the refurbishment of the giant Maxy head, the one with holes where his eyes should be (the creepy one). A couple of nightlights from IKEA and a couple of power banks and Maxy’s eyes will shine! 😃 It’s gonna look cool. Or at least less creepy.

This week’s banner celebrates Tracc’s 150th game. There is an absolutely stunning (and huge) montage of mainly Tracc moments. This section instantly made me think of @Jaded No More…

 

This banner is gonna look amazing tomorrow night. 

Also, Tom Sparrow’s 50th gets a mention. But not Hibbo’s 100th as a Demon because only total number of games is noted. All good though, we all know the importance of this. ❤️💙

You mean that 100 games with the red and the blue gives us the father - son opportunity?

Still can't believe it's 150 for him already!!
