Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
Looks like he played a few games for Swan Districts, not sure if he was injured or playing lower in the games he missed

When did the tears start watching the grand final?
I've had a hair trigger for the tears since my mum passed earlier in the year. They turned up a few times earlier in the game but once the 16 minute mark of the 3rd happened every single goal produced water. Watching highlights the following day opened the floodgates proper

Be proud to wear your Melbourne gear!
I've been wearing my near 30 year old woollen long sleeve flat out. Wore it every day for 3 weeks before the granny and the reactions have been great. Cars winding down windows on Sydney Road to tell out "Go Dees!" has been happening regularly. Had a few folks stop me in the street for good chats too, I love how it brings people together

Radio calls
@FritschyBusiness had a rip at the Dennis Cometti cal but our little laptop did not like it. Not sure if it's not enough ram or what but just can't get the previews to play well enough to be sure it's in sync. Was a lot of swearing before I called time

Not sure yet, it'll be a post dinner endeavour

Got them and a copy of the game, now trying to sync them up and save as one file!

They've just put up the first quarter of Dennis Cometti's call for Triple M Perth https://omny.fm/shows/the-rub/denniss-last-call-triple-m-perths-call-of-the-20-3

I'm after the Triple M Perth call. Dennis Cometti's final ever call, would be great to watch the replay and hear his take

Ideas required for celebration
When we're allowed to have the G at capacity they need to have a day there. Big screens on the oval so we can all sit in the stands and watch the replay. Then as the game finishes we're allowed on the field and the players and cup are presented to the crowd.

Your favourite music to get you through to the Grand Final
I've been getting into this local fella, I like the message about taking some time just soak in your surroundings. Does make it very hard seeing such beautiful countryside and being stuck in Melbourne. I think it's the Otways in the clip, I'll have to go down there for a look when we're allowed out https://youtu.be/hLnNVFu941o

Will Nathan Jones get a farewell game?
Thanks just doesn't seem enough, I wish there was a way we could let him know how much what he's done means to us. You're a champion Nathan and we won't forget it

TICKETING: GF vs Bulldogs
I'm just hoping I'll be able to watch it with my mate across the road here in Melbourne. I really don't want to be watching the game at home with no other Dees supporters. But if I can give my guaranteed ticked to a mate in Perth so they get to go it'll make me that little bit happier about me not being able to

TICKETING: GF vs Bulldogs
This year I paid extra on top of my membership for the grand final guarantee option to purchase a ticket. Obviously being a Victorian I won't be able to attend if it's in Perth. Does anyone know if I'd still be able to purchase a ticket if the game is in Perth so then I can give it to my mate who lives in WA so they can go?

Will Nathan Jones get a farewell game?
Do you think he'll get named on the bench or as medi-sub before season's end so we get to say goodbye, and more importantly, thank you? I have so much love for this bloke, he was the reason I kept watching during those years

Centre Clearances - Considered Analysis Requested.
There was one centre contest I think was in the second half that they won and I just couldn't fathom what the heck was going on. All 3 of our 3 mids were all behind Max for the bounce and he hit it forward. He knew where they were and he still hit it forward to their players

CASEY DEMONS: Rd 01 vs Box Hill Hawks
Seems to be moving well. Took a defensive mark right next to Box Hill's behind post before and then contested an inside 50 at our end about 30 seconds later. Think he's got 2 goals so far

2021 Melbourne Membership Packs
Probably. With us winning games now I need something else to be disappointed about

2021 Melbourne Membership Packs
On 2/6/2021 at 5:00 PM, Redbeard said: So after 5 weeks since I called and said that I only got the scarf and not the personalised membership card I'd paid for I received my replacement pack. This time I got another scarf AND a lanyard. That's all, still no membership card UPDATE. It's taken almost 4 months. Countless unanswered calls, half a dozen callback requests that never came through, emails, tweets, pm's via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and I finally received my membership card with the player I paid for on it. Crikey what a ride!

Casey Demons vs North Melbourne
Were the folks who did the writeups and stats for Casey part of the huge personnel cuts due to Covid or something? Not getting much apart from photos these days

Kobe Farmer
Thanks Dazzle. Hopefully he has a fair rip in the WAFL and we'll see him come back next preseason

Kobe Farmer
Any word on where young Kobe will play this season? Will he have a run at Casey or head back west?

40% discount from New Balance
Yep I didn't get one either. I get myself a new pair of runners for work every year with the voucher

Nope, specifically paid to choose the player on my membership card
