Three years on I still havent gotten my poster framed 😂

Three years on and I still haven't processed the proven fact that my wife can levitate!

Maybe I'm blocking it out because she can only do it while screaming 'Fritsch! Fritsch! Fritsch!'

 

What a year, month and Day, we went collectively nuts at my daughters house sheer lightheaded delight and joy.❤️💙👍😁💕

Unforgettable and being there seeing it all proceed. 

There are enough stars with good footy ahead if our role and younger players plus 2/3 trades and 1/2 Windsor type drafts all unite to challenge in the short or long term. 

It was amazing replaying the GF and the MC G celebration and the social interaction with friends and families plus the odd drinks to still celebrate.

Let’s do it again Dees asap!! 

December 2021 I remember walking in to the MCC sports museum and spent a good 5 minutes holding the cup.

The attendant asked me not to lift it up off its platform, I quickly assured her there was not a chance in hell I was letting it go 😁

 

It was a great day. I was lucky enough to have some photos taken with the cup in Miller room during the 2022 season. 

Funny that at only 17 points down despite more shots at goal, in typical mfcss fashion I thought it was all over.

I guess it made it the more sweeter.

Never forget the bang bang bang.


The third quarter will be forever part of MFC folklore. 
Harmes fingertip control of the ball and subsequent kick was when i thought “Here we go”

But what happened after that was almost beyond words 

So sad i couldn’t go out afterwards

My multiple cheese boards have been used many times… and no I definitely didn’t order two while a little tipsy post game and then got a third one from my MIL 😂

I ended up with 3 of those premiers pennants thanks to two xmas presents after I bought my own.

It was 19 points. Short changing our heros 😁😉


Every time I come to see the Dees in the finals from northern NSW, they aren't here :-(

How long ago was our AFLX back to back premiership before the AFL stepped in and shut it down because we were dominating.

Solly Lew or one of his kids are Dee's fans.  They blew a similarly glorious photo of the premiership team up to life size and had it on their fence after we won.  I made a pilgrimage and took a photo standing next to Fritter, Hibbo and Viney - some real life photoshop magic 😁

Anyone else watching the GF right now? Dogs just kicked their first.


I was lucky enough to attend with my then 10 year old son. When I was 10 we lost to the Hawks by 96 points….he has no idea how lucky he is! Possibly the greatest day of my life, just pure joy and elation. 
I knew we were home after Brown’s first in the last quarter and then I could just soak it all up and enjoy it. Crazy to think after Bont’s goal that we would go on to win by the largest margin out of all our premierships. I didn’t shed a tear (too happy) but when I got to unexpectedly hold the cup the next year I welled up a little. That premiership cup is the most beautiful inanimate object I’ve ever held. I cradled it like a new born baby 🤣

Bont cost me 70 dollars to replace my Hisense Remote but has given my Dad multiple laughs as he pictures me punching it into oblivion. What was the worst moment watching live became the favourite part of watching the Replay. 

Almost every morning I look at the Pennant and premiership photo on my study wall and start singing the old song , " They can't take that away from me. No,no they can't take that away from me"" I must have watched that third quarter at least fifty times. When you are in your eighties it has a special meaning after wondering if 1964 would be the last one I would ever see. Had a few dreams that we had won a premiership this century only to wake up to reality. Wonderful emotions after this latest one and I went to bed that night a happy and supremely contented man.

 

What a ride, what a ride the greatest sporting month of my life, September 2021.

If you could bottle that month and open it whenever the time needed, you wouldn't need much else more in life.

I look at that premiership photo nearly everyday.

Special memories.❤️💙🏆🥇

Just before 3/4 time I was busting for the loo and had to leave the room for a few minutes.  As I was sitting on my throne and pondering our comeback (Brayshaw's goal gave us the lead) I could hear shouting from the other end of the house.

I missed seeing the last minute of the 3rd quarter happen "live" so I missed the whole bang-bang-bang moment.  "What happened, what happened?"  Damn.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
