Help - Demon gnome

[Wrecker46 3,016]

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.

Caleb Daniel’s isn’t getting a game. Anyone got a spare Demons guernsey and some paint for his helmet?

Was it similar to this or “older”?

Charlie Spargo isn't busy for the next few weeks, he already has the uniform as well.

I have one of these guarding my Thai Basil plants 😊

I've got relatives on Powlett Street! I'll notify them to keep an eye out for mistreated gnomes.

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.

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

I saw this one at Coles Yarraville on clearance for $8.50 yesterday. It isn’t plastic but not sure if it is as big as 30cm

They also offered a $10 discount, voucher came up as a pop up.

$15 for next day delivery. Only 18 cm big.

Saw they were sold out of the 30 cms ones.

Get a garden gnome, and paint it up.

I've seen them at Poyntons Nersery

But that business is owned by James Hird's missus' family

So, nah

[Demonstone 22,815]

I suspect the gnome is hiding somewhere and mischievously laughing at his owner. 

 

 

[demosaw 1,072]

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….

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 😀

Makes shopping time consuming and confusing when they are so unclear.

Sometimes attention is more important @daisycutter.
