not many our supporters are probably the most silent in the AFL to be honest. Farmer's mark in 1998 against Richmond would be up there along with the one in 1998 Prelim Against North which we lost.... also the general atmosphere of the Prelim in 2000 where we probably played our best game of footy i have ever seen (how good were Powell, and Farmer towelling Pickett that night) and also the Adelaide 2002 Semi were ones that made me get chills....

For me it was the roar at the half time siren of the 1987 elimination final, followed closely by the one after the National Anthem before the game.

Powerful stuff.

Nothing has come close since.

WE TEND TO 'CLAP' MUCH MORE THAN ROAR...

Maybe the majority of our supporters are overly introverted without realising & the feedback the players onfield recieve from crowd response helps to instill a lack of extravertism.

When I was a kid back in the late 80s early 90s, a roar on the back flank would always go up when Rodney grinter smacked some poor sods teeth out behind play.

I loved grinter, he has harder than a male pornstars......

In the final against the Saints last year - Davey comes back on after the Baker free and 50, grabs the ball out of nowhere, takes a bounce or two on the boundary line and delivers it to Neitz in the goal square. When Neitz takes that mark, the crowd Roars. That goal puts us in front I believe. Watch the replay of that 4th quarter on Bigpond if you can, it's worth it just for that moment.

Considering how depressing football is at the moment, three cheers for this thread.

I'll add in the roar when we hit the front against the Crows in the 2002 final. Spine-chilling. Unfortunately, there was a 4th quarter to that game.

In that 02 SF, the roar when Yze goaled from the forward pocket, 60s after Vardy had done from the same spot, and the standing ovation Clint Bizzell got for his spoil on Mark Stevens, soccer off the ground, chase and dive at the loose ball and then diving tackle on Stenglein, creating the loose ball for Armstrong and then Yze.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
