Not 100% confirmed yet.

The only thing that is certain is that the DeeArmy will be putting on a BBQ. No surprise there.

Hashtag death/taxes/DA BBQ 😁

    Thanks for the update!

    Has this been announced by the club yet, or is this inside information?

    I don’t think the Club has officially announced it yet. But because the DeeArmy is very much involved with these events we get plenty of notice.

    Our men will be attending Family Day, of course. Our women’s team is on a break but the girls being the girls there’ll likely be some of them attending. Daisy has already said she’ll be there.

    Also wanted to mention that as well as our usual fare (sausage in bread, soft drink, bottled water etc.) we’ll have cakes. One of our members is a professional baker and her cupcakes are to die for. We’ll also be selling merch.

    Never too early to induct her into the MFC hall of fame. And in front of the adoring supporters too………….never a more appropriate opportunity.

    They taste as good as they look. ❤️💙
     

    PS: the blue food dye literally leaves its mark. The entire cheer squad rocked blue tongues that day, which is never not funny. 😁

    As we all know, BBB will be losing his curly locks at Family Day to raise funds for the children’s cancer charity Challenge, a charity close to his heart, and one very worthy of support.

    Donations of any amount are much appreciated and can be made using this link…

    https://fundraise.challenge.org.au/bb

    But wait, there’s more…

     

    For a $50 donation you’ll get a Mark Knight picture signed by BBB!!!

    DON’T FORGET TO BRING AN EMPTY BELLY TO FAMILY DAY TOMORROW…

    … AND COME VISIT THE DEMON ARMY TENT!

    We will have competition, though. There’ll be two food trucks: one with pizza, the other with burgers and chips. I’m sure they’ll cook up a storm and their food will be delish, but for more bang for your buck - or bangER for your buck see what I did there - you simply can’t go past our BBQ and cake stall. Our prices are more than reasonable and ALL proceeds from the cake stall will be donated to the Challenge Cancer charity (loveya BBB).

    Besides, who’s eating pizza and burgers at 10am?! Apart from ppl who’ve been out on the turps all night and/or ppl who are partial to hardened arteries, amirite?!

    This is just one example of the deliciousness that’ll be available…

    They taste as good as they look. And I know. I’ve had more of these than I care to remember.

    There’ll be a big selection of cakes of all shapes and sizes.

    And we’ll be selling merch. 

    So please come and support us!!!

    This morning a supermarket which shall remain nameless (COLES!) messed up and didn’t have our 1000-sausage order when our awesome and very patient leader arrived to pick them up. She put the call out and in typical Demon Army fashion, our dedicated members stopped at supermarkets on their way to Yarra Park and bought up whatever sausages were on the shelves.

    So if you’re looking to buy snags today don’t be surprised if there’s none in your local Coles/Woollies. 😂

    Final shameless plug: please come and buy a sausage in bread and/or a cake. We depend on days such as this. Those giant heads don’t grow on trees, ya know. Imagine if they did, though. That’d be amazing!

    JUST GET YOURSELF TO OURS!!!

    Anyone got good ideas on parking near Gooches?

    Train services on the Belgrave/Lillidale line are going to be rubbish for the first part of the season due to track closure and replacement buses for the Mont Albert / Surrey Hills level crossing removal works.

    Can't make it but hope there is a good turnout. Get around Grundy & tell him how much we are so excited to have him at the Dee's. At least he'll be around better supporters & not feral ones.

    Also find out how levers ankle is.

    Spewing can't get there. Don't think my 2-year-old son would appreciate it as much as I would and would be trying to drag me out of the place as soon as we got there.

    Does Tracc ever stop smiling?

    Hope to see him smiling, running around the G this year, with the Cup in his hands.

    Someone ask Lever about his ankle if you can please and thanks! 

    I didn’t ask him about the ankle, but he was moving without any noticeable discomfort and was able to deal with wrangling one of his kids, and pushing the pram.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
