My anger was actually more directed towards the absolutely horrible disgusting pack mentality of large sections of the Collingwood crowd that emerged and permeated across the ground when they started that slow repetitive chant of ‘Collllllingwood’ whilst an opposition was lying unconscious on the ground. Never have I felt so angry and disgusted attending a football game. It was really shameful what happened that night with large sections of the crowd. It was a very tense, putrid period of time when it was all unfolding. I despise the ‘filth culture’ as opposed to their actual team. (Don’t get me wrong, I still ‘love to hate’ Cox and Maynard for example, miss hating Ginnivan and quietly admire Elliot, he is a great player in my opinion). Bottom line, I have hated the Filth for so many reasons over the years. It just increased again that night.

Players who need a big year…..everyone!

My approach is:- When we are doing well- ‘it’s more than a game’ When we are not doing well - ‘it’s just a game’ Go Dees!

Geez, the actual playing season was a tough gig at times, the ‘off season’ seems even tougher. Not much fun and joy logging into Demonland of late. I’m going to make a big effort to not having a look again at what’s happening till say February next year. At the moment it almost seems like shades of what happened when we won our last flag in 1964. I hope history doesn’t repeat. If it does, I’ll be dead before our next one. Membership is on auto review. I’ll remain a demon supporter until the day I die. I just want to enjoy summer. Merry Xmas everyone! Over and out. Go Dee’s

Likewise and no

I most definitely agree with your last sentence. Also the fact that we had the vast majority of WA football fans that hopped on the Demon bus. Trust me, they were loud, very loud. I was lucky enough to make it over there. I reckon at the GF it was around a 65/35 split, maybe even a 70/30 split and the noise was unbelievable. Think West Coast and Freo supporters combined, charged up, enjoying the show, particularly when we got going in the third quarter (yes, including the booing). Our players must have relished all that. It was pure magic. Last but not least, let’s not forget the fortnight earlier when we busted Geelong out of the park. I reckon it might have even been more noisy then. My theory being that they must really hate Geelong. Crowd would have been say a 75/25 split. Most memorable moment? When the whole crowd started chanting ‘Gawny, Gawny….’ You just had to be there.

On reflection…….it has all been strange and weird.

Hopefully a few more of us supporters rock up to our games next year….wait for it…..for big Max’s sake. We owe him.

GWS. They were robbed by the umpires against the Ferals for their chance to play in a GF last year - which more likely than not would have won. Good luck to them for this year (Hawks playing the most crowd pleasing footy at the moment)

One upside about Freo losing. We all get a chance to see Carlton lose again in a fortnight.

To all the members, supporters and fans that went to the G and gave it to Maynard…….. thanks.

I’ll start on a positive. The only highlight being at the G last night was giving that dirty filthy mongrel [censored] Maynard all that he deserved. Well done demon supporters. Good job! The bad, it’s all been said above. The worst. Listening to that germ Derm on SEN whilst watching the game. Have never come across a more pompous full of himself [censored] that loves himself and hates Melbourne with a vengeance. He was at his deplorable worst last night. Glad the season is over. (Go GWS in the finals)

Being at the G watching us beat the umpire assisted premiers of 2023, surrounded by black and white feral supporters (both at the game and on the train)… priceless. GO DEES

I believe it’s called the ‘Inconsequential Cup’….that I want us to win. Three reasons, I really despise the Filth, I’ll be at the game and I hate losing! GO DEES!

Likewise. Hope he stays around with us for a very long time.
