Thanks Gw. Training reports just became far easier to understand! 
I now know who Knuckles actually is😀!

@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. 

 

I thought that Judd McVee's nickname was knuckle. Singular.

Nah definitely Knuckles plural. 


Good stuff thanks.

how cool to be called “X” whilst Jed does show a certain lack of imagination!

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.

You should be banned from this thread.

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.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
