Hey all,

Ive seen the trumpeteer, looking rather dashing in royal red combination of a smoking jacket and a dressing gown and crevat deliver a very nice rendition of a grand old flag beofre the game and i heard him again after the game on the radio leaving the game whre garry lyon said that the club employed him to play in the rooms at the end of the game happy hammond style after a win but has not previously had the chance.

Can anyone else shed some light on this guy? thoughts?

I think its great. It adds some class and is unique...

Yeah teh club pay him to bugel. When the boys and pretty much the entire football department were singing the song the bugler was bugling with them. Didn't catch a glimpse but you could hear him pumping it out as best as his cheeks would let him.

I love the Mohawk guy , Melbournes answer to Joffa (Pies). Maybe he could do some ads and raise the profile of the Dees.

Mate. wash ya mouth out. Hope your in church today to ask for forgiveness?

Love the trumpeter though. Unfortunately apart from not wanting us on the MCG the idiots who run it also don't want us to build atmopshere like that so they played Chumba Wamba through the loudspeakers over the top his piece.

was fantastic, listening to those after match team songs is usually indescribably painful (even the Dee's) but he made it much more tolerable, nice touch

i like the trumpet guy, and that red and blue mow hawk guy who is he id be interested i see him everywhere on tv a lot....

The mohawk guy is Angelo. Hails from down the peninsula if I recall correctly. Mad Demon fan - he was "the face of Demonology" last year. He agreed to having a pic of him with the red & blue mohawk on the home page there. Doesn't post much but when he first got on last year his username "The Mohawk" sort of gave up his ID straight away.

Love it when he gets shown on TV - he is the opposite of the stereotype that we're depicted by. I'd like to see someone tell him that he's a Range Roving snow bunny !

in regards to the 2 cheer squads, i believe a few individuals had a few issues, power struggle if you will and someone left, and took some with him, and the next week, we have 2 cheer squads

Trumpet guy is great. Another of NDs initatives, wanted him to be a little similar to the gold jacket business at Collingwood. He starts belting it out in the dying minutes if we are going to win. What was with the lack of slapping our hands yesterday? Thats one of my fave bits and Neitzy started it one person after me (damn) but none of the other players were up for it

I love it when he goes to Sandy and adopts their colours. His hair must be falling out in handfulls!

Ahh a bit of an inter cheer squad rift?...I used to be in the cheersquad, nothing against the cheersquad i think their great and do a wonderful job to get the boiys over the line, but i found that it just wasn't for me, die-hard level two members barracker!

I'll go against the grain and say I don't really care ;o

If I turned up one week and there was no trumpet when we won I wouldn't mind.

Can't be a bad thing though :)

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
