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!

    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 :)

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
