A PLEASANT SUNDAY AFTERNOON with MFC

Sunday Afternoon – February 3rd 2008

In attendance will be Senior Coach Dean Bailey, Football Operations Manager Chris Conolly, Development Coach Mark Williams, either Steve Harris or Paul Gardner, plus current players.

The MC for the even will be Anthony McDonald, former player and runner.

Tickets are $40 each, with a limit of 200 places. You will need to get in quick to get a ticket!

There will be information from the club, prizes, finger food and a quality raffle, with all proceeds going directly to the Melbourne Football Club!

Why don’t you show your support?

For further information, contact the Ballarat Demons via e-mail at [email protected], or contact Andrew on 0417 011 757.

Just some more info about this event. The Ballarat Demons are a supporters group, who currently sponser Jace Bode, and run events such as this, as well as transport to the home games.

This event has come out of the group wanting to actually help the club out, so a meeting was arranged with Steve Harris and Chris Connoly, who both were very excited about the idea, and bent over backwards to help out, as can be seen by the list of big names who will be in attendance.

Ballarat is also the home town of James MacDonald and James Frawley, and was the home club for our new recruit Kyle Cheney.

This event will not only be a great way to support the club, but a chance to have a talk to the new coach, the new football manager and the players, and find out the latest news and gossip!

Tickets are selling fast, so get in quick.

Also wondering if someone might be able to post this on 'Ology for me, as while it's being rebuilt I cant create a profile on there, and the more exposure the better!

Players confirmed to be at the event are 2006 / 2007 Best & Fairest winner, and local Ballarat boy James MacDonald, fellow local James Frawley, close enough to be local new recruit Kyle Cheney and Ballarat Demons sponsored player Jace Bode.

Tickets are selling fast, and with such a limited number it is a wise idea to get in soon. This is a great event to attend, with a chance to get up close and personal with the new coach, the heads of our club etc. The price for this event does not fully represent the value of these opportunity, where else will you be able to meet and great the staff in the midst of the pre-season training and find out all of the goss and going ons for the year, for only $40?

And just to remind you, all of the proceeds for this event go directly to the club. Not the Ballarat Demons, but straight to the MelbourneFC.

Once again I also ask if someone may post this on 'Ology as well, thanks for the help and support guys!

Well it's coming up quickly, so another quick update.....

Tickets are selling well, but could be better. Don't forget this is your chance to get up close and personal with not just the players, but with the coaching team. Ask Dean Bailey where Miller will be playing, how the new leadership group came to be etc. Ask Chris Connolly what is planned for our 150th etc

Colin Sylvia made mention that he wanted to attend the event, along with Issac Weetra. Take note here, not said he will go, but said he wanted to go.

This is an unpreceidented event, and lets face it is only an hours drive from Melbourne. So show your support, stand up, be counted, and take advantage of everything being put on offer here.

And again, to really drill it home, all money directly going to the Melbourne FC!

And as per usual, can someone place on 'Ology. Thanks.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.Β
