  1. As per usual the Club is having an open training session prior to the big game on Monday. This year the training session will be on the Friday 8th June and there will be a BBQ, mascots, coffee and the Demon Shop. Proceedings will start around 9.45am and finish around 11. I suggest everyone intending to come down keep an eye on the website just in case of any last minute changes to the schedule. This game is going to be huge especially if Collingwood win this week and we also carry on our winning record. So come down to Gosch and support the Demon Army (all proceeds to go to the Demon Army to assist with the purchase of more "heads") and of course the boys. They really do enjoy having all the fans (not just Saty) come and watch.
  2. ET don't be like that. Wouldn't like someone else to get their nose out of joint.
  3. And then the "oh sorry" - absolute gold - hope MH reminded him of the score in the last quarter
  4. Not sure if this has been covered but did anyone else think that Neville Jetta looked a little proppy in the last quarter. I cant imagine life without Nev but he looked as though he was treading water trying to chase an opposition player. Like Hogan he has an ungainly gait but this was definitely something else. Maybe Saty might be able to help with this.
  5. I think looking back Jake was being played to fulfill a different role whilst missing Tom and Jack. His goal kicking talent was not being emphasised as it has now that Tom is back however he played the role for the moment which is what Goody asked of him. It is a joy to sit back and watch him not only kick great goals but be the team player that he has become.
  6. Unbelievable. I even feel sorry for Hawkins. That is a farce and Fitzpatrick is not even there anymore.
  7. Could just be on light duties given the two injuries. Glass half full.
  8. He generally does have an awkward running gait but did anyone see him yesterday at training. Whilst driving slowly by Gosch's yesterday morning I did see JV and from what I briefly saw he looked ready to go.
  9. trumpesque
  10. Quality not quantity applies here
  11. Tried to get reserve seats in the mcc this afternoon for the Anzac Eve game after receiving an email this morning. All sold out. They are expecting more than last year which I was told was over 92000. (Not sure this is correct figure) As this is our home game it will be a bonanza for the Club.
  12. Bayley Fritsch first goal Fighting to the last gasp (9 secs) the other half of the team will turn up next week
  13. Pick them up on game day at the stand next to the Membership Hub.
  14. Yes will be able to if you ring the Membership Team. The only problem will be getting the card before the first game.
  15. James wasn't at the Sponsorship afternoon either so maybe a family issue.
  16. That is true and this year there have been a few hiccups that the Membership Team are trying to rectify. Unfortunately the issues are not across the board so unless a member contacts the Club it is hard to identify those who have a problem with their membership packages. From my own experience, I suggest to anyone if they have a missing article from their package or have not received their membership to contact the Club. They are usually very quick to respond.
  17. Longsufferingnomore replied to junk's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    I don't think there is a nicer, more genuine and more giving person than Jack. His passion for the Club and his role was obvious to anyone who met him. I admired him for the way he played his role at Casey. He showed maturity beyond his years and as LH has said "integrity plus" If he does get picked up by another Club he will play with as much heart as he did whilst at Melbourne. However if he doesn't get to another Club, I am sure that he will succeed in anything that he takes on. I hope that there will be some role for him at the Club at a later time.
  18. Just as I was getting a little bit more comfortable.
  19. "If WE can all stay together......................"
  20. ALERT Jesse coming up on Chan 9 news
  21. Am I wrong but didn't Bernie get a little nudge
  22. Cor it would be a bit nippy down the beach. We may be meeting at ten paces in the mounting yard! I think though we may have found our secret weapon = bananas. For me not him - this horse racing caper is a bit hard on the nervous system.
  23. I hope not at Flemington. Today was a little better than what we hoped for - a bog 9!
