Wrecker46 3,130 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 (edited) Demonlanders, my old man has (had) a demon gnome that he puts out the front of his apartment on Powlett St a few hundred metres from the G. When we lose it faces the naughty corner when we win its on proud display. When Maxy kicked the goal after the siren in 2021 to win the minor premiership it was purched on top of a ladder. It has been stolen twice in 5 years both Collingwood games. Last night one of those people in black and white jail uniforms jumped his fence and stole it. The old man wants a new gnome before Anzac Eve. Any ideas how to fast track one? It needs to be 30+cm and not one of those plastic ones. The new gnome will be wearing a Brayshaw style helmet the week we play Collingwood we might need security. Edited April 21, 2024 by Wrecker46 Size requirements 1 Quote

Little Goffy 14,970 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 I've got relatives on Powlett Street! I'll notify them to keep an eye out for mistreated gnomes. Quote
Little Goffy 14,970 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 Also, surely there must be a warehouse of unsold Demon Gnomes out there somewhere which can be bought as a job lot and place in every window and balcony in the area. Total Gnome dominance. Quote

I think the AFL shop sells them , and I bought one about 5 years ago from a privately owned sports memorabilia store in a shop on Victoria street adjacent to the Vic market. This store will be open on Tuesday Edited April 21, 2024 by joeboy 1 Quote

Only 18 cm big. Saw they were sold out of the 30 cms ones. Get a garden gnome, and paint it up. Edited April 21, 2024 by kev martin Quote
Moonshadow 17,678 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 I've seen them at Poyntons Nersery But that business is owned by James Hird's missus' family So, nah Quote
Demonstone 23,587 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 I suspect the gnome is hiding somewhere and mischievously laughing at his owner. Quote
demosaw 1,155 Posted April 21, 2024 Posted April 21, 2024 I’d stuff the next gnome with some explosives and a movement/time delay trigger -10 mins from Powlett St should get them back to their Collingwood hovel. Gnomeland security…. 2 Quote

Not going to ask where obviously but could we get which side of the street it's on when facing the G? Would be good to keep a lookout when the new one is installed 😀 1 Quote
