From Lynda Carroll's 1998 book The Grand Old Flag here is a photo of the 1877 Melbourne Football Club team.

I reckon that is Jake Lever 4th from the left in the back row......spooky!

...and could that possibly be Bowey seated in the front row next to the chap with the bowler hat?

It could be a form of pareidolia where you perceive a particular image within another pattern or object and I guess with low quality, pixelated images it's easier to interpret in a familiar way. The Max one is a dead ringer though.

Looks like James Sicily was a demon back then.

I thought Clarry - the ears have it. Also looks like he was pre-emptively self-censoring his current 'do'...

Yarra Park looks more like ye olde Australian bush, wonder if Edward Kelly is lurking nearby?  (Closet demons supporter gawn to hell). Classic J Taylor smokie from back of Mansfield way. What a physique, surely a ruck,  KP prospect with plenty of mongrel to boot.

Looks like Robbie Flower, bottom row third from left. Zac Toohey sitting next to him, and Harry Potter sitting next to him.

This is quite fun.

Demonland is such a broad church from the sacred to the profane.

Typical of Demonland. Langdon has been mis-spelled as Longden

That's how they pronounced it back then.

Jeremy Howe sitting in front row…..sneaky

Is the guy in the suit holding handcuffs? Must have heard that new team with the jailbird stripes was sniffing around Jeremy...

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
