    @Ghostwriter Thanks for taking this on… I’d completely lost track of the original post that I put up at the beginning of last season (life got in the way).

    @Demonland Firstly, could this post be pinned for easy reference, and secondly, is there any way that Ghostwriter could be given permanent editing permission, so that updates to the original post don’t need to be made via yourself? (I think the Edit option is removed after 24(?) hours)

    Childish humour here but repeating Xavier Lindsays nickname quickly and consecutively as players do calling for the ball must sound a tad funny. @Ghostwriter have you heard it out loud?

    I would’ve heard it but never noticed. Now that you’ve said it I will undoubtedly notice and then never stop noticing 🤣 Handheld banner ideas abound!!!

    All good, hardtack. Changes/additions etc would be rare and if they had to be made I can just quote the OP and make the changes.

    Many thanks for this post. My ability to keep up with most of the player given nicknames over the past few years has seriously degraded! 

    Glad I'll no longer have to look like this when I read through the odd training report.

    Thanks, @Ghostwriter!

    This thread is a stark reminder of how pleasantly trivial, diverting and consuming Demonland can be 😄

    Do any of the names vary in the heat of match-day battle? TMac, for example, might be a bit of a mouthful?

    Does Clarry get Clazz much? (as used by Richo (*) in his interview, for example)

    Ditto Koz v. Kozzy/Kossie?

    Poor Harves had to take second best, eh? Ricky, though, hasn't been forced there by the 'unentitled' Rick.

    And, finally, we mourn the passing of the good old days: only 5 genuine 'nicknames' imagined by this Gen-something-or-other (and PC?) lot!

    (*) Perhaps a coaches' list, too, Ms Friendly Ghost?

    You’re a one-man campaigner for the Dirk thing, Layz. I admire your resolve. 😅

    Gussy was the resident nickname creator and now that he’s no longer doing so it really shows. 😢

    The best thing about being a one-man campaigner is I can be my own boss.

    Please add The Duke beside Windsor's name. I just realised 'post-post' that that's who it refers to, and I saw it on here months ago too.

    Excuse my ignorance, but where does a nickname of Dirk come from?  Dirk as in a type of dagger? Dirk Gently and His Holistic Detective Agency? Dirk Welham? Dirk Van Hartog? Dirk Nowitzki? Deadly Dirk? I needs ta know!

    Conversation I had with AJ at the Family Day on Monday at Casey Fields:

    Me - "I heard on the grapevine that your nickname up in Albury was Peaches"

    AJ - (look of surprise/amusement) "Yeah, it was.  How did you know that?"

    Me - "Friend of mine in the Demon Army from Albury told me".

    AJ - "Wow, nothing is hidden from you lot!!"  

    Genuinely lovely fellow.

    I always thought it was in reference to Dutch explorer Dirk Hartog. Recall posts to that effect around his time of drafting/arrival.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
