Fair enough topic name change @Demonland, the pun was a bit forced 😂

It's nice to know that George knows our team song after that bombshell @WalkingCivilWar dropped about him not singing our song from one of the training sessions 😂

Omg, my bestie moved to the UK and literally left Australia yesterday. Her (only) favourite AFL player... Nibbler!! What timing...

Wow, y'all would hate Sydney. I live in one of the nicer suburbs over SCG way and regularly see rats and cockroaches... I'm always impressed by how clean Melbourne is whenever I visit 😂

Never thought the day would come where Gawny is not a perfect role model, but here we are... Jawny asleep at the wheel in terms of indoctrinating Jorge!

Not on my visitation days, WCW 😂

Does this mean we're in a polygamous situation, WCW? Because my conclusion on reading "Langer- David Bowie" was that he's my soul mate 😂 (Although Rock and Roll Suicide is my all time favourite in truth, due to that beautiful crescendo and compassionate lyrics)

Love the concept of a retro round except for fitting into my retro gear 😂

I arrived in Melbourne on Thursday night and made it to the G tonight (wearing a second pair of pants under my red and blue match day pants). Shivered alongside the rest of the Demon Army and headed home after helping pack up to watch our first Olympics Gold!

Teams are picked now so this is mainly speculation on my part. But from memory Sestan plays a forward/midfielder role and has a lovely kick. He seems like a great option for us in the near future! I'd like to see him have a chance at AFL level

Look at that big grin on Kolt's face! How good! Must be all those culture problems we have 🤭

Perry was picked before her album launched and crashed, I believe. For mass appeal, she has so many hits that she could play and easily keep a crowd happy with. Quite a few on here would probably know her songs from radio saturation even if they wouldn't realise those songs were hers / have an interest in those songs. She performed at the cricket women's world championship in March 2020 (literally the weekend prior to Melb's first ever lockdown) and it was great entertainment since she just did the hits. Not fine art but fit the bill

Hahaha I just want to recreate the 2021 grand final in every respect!

Baker Boy, his music is infectious!

Well, at least both of these ladders make me feel happier about our current ladder position!

Appreciated Melksham saying in the post game interview that Choco had soaped up the balls at training to help our wet weather skills. I wonder if we've done this in previous seasons or if we finally decided to address our skill deficiency in this area after one too many embarrassing losses in the wet and/or humidity! Certainly being at the Opening Round game this season, it was disappointing how we seemed to have never met a slick ball. Glad it's becoming a strength now!

Good summary Joeboy. But harsh re Chandler and AMW!

Com'on boys, 6 mins to go. Don't put the cue in the rack yet!

It's the obscuring the view that drives me nuts - I made half the group wait for Gawny to take his shot at goal during the Cats game. Bless our captain, he missed it of course. We were all rather silent as I allowed them to return to their seats haha Don't have this problem when with the Demon Army! Generally the obscuring means we're all waving madly after a goal 😁

From memory, it was looking worse for wear from being carried in on the train but y'all were brave enough to accept a mangled slice! You and @Lucifers Hero are very kind hearted. This is the enemy we're talking about haha

If I'm with family, we generally bring mandarins and a freshly baked cake. Occasionally I might relent and get some hot chips too. At the Cats game, one of the 20 year olds that seem to have endless money and time for the beer at the G but not watching the game exclaimed in the first quarter and asked for some of our apple tea cake. I said it was only for Dees supporters - but once we beat them and our song was playing, recanted and offered him a slice in pity!

Don't they say strangers aren't really the danger, it's those we know? 😜

If you go on the Demon Army website closer to round 23, the ticketing details for the match will be posted. We normally sit behind the goal posts (at the end where there is no built up stands, but lots of sun). WCW will probs know more exact details!

Alternatively, such a meal might ensure I'll stay in Melbourne for longer than planned... but definitely not achieve visiting the game 😂
