OK,

At the risk of the club already having something planned in the pipeline...

How about we Demonlanders lead the charge of the RED and BLUE ARMY

How: Sunday 23rd meet at 3.00 PM at Fed Square, gather and make some noise for a 3:30 PM and March to the G.

Groundwork

1/ Indicate how many of us can make it, including offspring etc, and ensure we have critical mass

2/ Contact the MFC, let them know its on [coordinate] and hopefully they can put it on the MFC website

3/ We get the MFC cheersquad involved as well...its not a proper March without the banners and they would make a good rallying point

4/ Get John So and as many celeb's as possible to join us [I'm just not pretty enough to warrant media exposure]

5/ Any muso's amongst us..especially trumpet players / wind instruments

Moderators...is there a function on this website that allows Demonlanders to indicate whether they are up for this or not?

    That is Easter Sunday, people might have things on before they go to the footy.

    Could be good, but i know the club's got one organised for QB, might be a bit much to get two in one year going.

    I'd be up for it if we can get one going though.

    For God's sake don't let a filth supporter see that or they will laugh themselves silly.

    It sounds like a quote from Sergeant Wilson in Dad's Army

    This is the Red & Blue Army...repent Sunday Morning - March Sunday afternoon!

    Is this the game where we get entry on our membership for the hame game we play at Manuka or is it the Essendon game later in the year.

    I'd normally know this allready but I haven't received any info.

    Queen's B'day is in June, i.e. over 3 months away. FFS, how early do you expect them to market it!!!!

    I think DeeReaming might be referring to the marketing drive for the season.

    Not marketing the march.

    That's right Redfin...and Brocky...please FGS, not FFS, we're all on the same side here!

    Latest contact from the club indicates that they think a "march to the G" for round one would dilute the impact of a similar march on the QB weekend.

    Without MFC support I would consider the round 1 march "dead in the water" as its purpose was to generate public interest and membership uptake and this is unlikely to happen without MFC backing in regards to arranging cheer squads, celebrity support, media backing etc

    We would have to gather a hell of a lot of demonlanders together to make the round 1 march work. <_<

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
