If you can produce evidential support for โ€ฆ โ€œPeople in Darwin โ€˜hateโ€™ the MFC (itโ€™s the least supported). Please feel free to put it up here.

Demon support in Darwin and beyond is tangible. People love their footy up here.

Personal experience born raised lived in Darwin for the first 30 years of my life experience

Anecdotal but a few years back (in the Bad Years) after we had playing two games a year in the NT for many years I was at the MCG seated behind a group of around 15 year olds from the NT down to Melbourne to play representative football.

I asked them if any barracked for Melbourne and had they noticed any increase in MFC support locally.

Answer to both was a very firm no.

One thing the NT does deliver is an artificial bump in membership numbers as an undisclosed portion of their annual fee was paid by the State taking out 3 game memberships

Currently weโ€™re no match for the clubs with mega memberships. Perhaps itโ€™s more symbiotic thru family allegiances. Than a jump on board fan base.

Agree the seed has probably fallen on sterile ground. Despite multiply appearances during my time here. Premierships and continued success are quite illusory to be honest.

Most homegrown support Iโ€™ve felt at a game for the Demons here, was a pre-season competition match against the Bullies. Russell Robertson was still playing. A small but dedicated band of local supporters assisted by an evening storm got us through.

  • NON-MFC: Round 7

    Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competitionโ€™s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
