Apparently GWS are keen on Andrew.

I bought this at the newsagents before and wanted to get the herald Sun mag too but they didn't get it delivered 😡 they said it should be in monday

Will the club be getting more stock of the kids knight poster design t-shirts? Went to buy a couple for my kids today but they only have the larger sizes left. https://shop.melbournefc.com.au/melbourne-demons-premiers-mark-knight-youth-tee-updating/

I never buy the paper (especially the Hun) but have bought both every day this week to keep with the my footy record. Was very disappointed to head down today and find no Demons content, surely they could've had a piece on what Gawny had for lunch yesterday or something??

I mean seriously though, would you go back to Essendon after the [censored] he endured there? I know there's different management now but still, bad taste in the mouth.

The last I spoke to today said they should be available next week (I think she said Tuesday)

80,021

I rang up today to make sure my two sons had the GFG on their memberships for 2022. One already had one this year the other will be the first time.

That's Garry Lyon pretty sure I have that card somewhere.

My mother in law who has never really got into footy much just told me she's watched the GF replay 3 times and asked how much memberships are (she's turned gabatic because my kids are Melbourne supporters). She'll probably get a 3 game membership because she was shocked when I told her how much I pay but if people like her are jumping on we'll clear 70k easily. Wouldn't surprise me to see us hit around 75k give or take. She also wants a Demons jumper for Xmas 👍

Just ordered this for mum for xmas, brother and sister chipping in https://www.officialmemorabilia.com.au/melbourne-2021-premiers-dual-signed-icon-series-2972.phtml

I haven't even started! My dad bought the $2k framed jumper though

Love the name and avatar change mate. How long ago did you first say we were at base camp? Feels like a lifetime

I post on BigFooty as well as Demonland. I haven't forgotten. Remember when Richmond supporters said Kozzie would regret pointing to the scoreboard when they played us in September 🤣🤣. I think that one is my favourite.

"A man who allegedly robbed a renowned Victorian cartoonist has been caught, thanks to a detailed caricature drawn by his victim. Police said the cartoonist, Bill 'Weg' Green, who is famous for his drawings of AFL Grand Final posters, offered to draw a picture of the robber when police arrived at his home in Melbourne's east. Senior constable Aaron Roche, who attended the scene, said: "It was amazing, the likeness was just fantastic." The sketch only took the cartoonist three or four seconds, Mr Roche said. He said the alleged robber, "picked the wrong place to burgle." True story https://www.theage.com.au/national/cartoon-sketch-snares-robber-20060117-ge1l6z.html

JB will have these sets eventually they are called Victory Packs and also come with a season highlights DVD. I also saw JB have produced box sets of the entire season for recent premiers. Hopefully these are sold through the MFC too so you can buy direct and give them your money instead of it going elsewhere.

Does the club get the money from these items?

Get some Demons up for Halloween as well

Brady is GOAT and he's still going. Won 3 superbowls with New England between 2001-2004 (missed 1) won another 3 between 2013-2017 (missed 1, lost 1) and then shifted teams last season and won another with Tampa Bay. In the years he didn't make the superbowl they were generally playing off for the Superbowl in conference championships (equivalent to the Prelims). If we could emulate the Patriots over the last couple of decades I wouldn't complain.

I suspected the Demons were loading before they basically admitted so after the Port game and I also thought perhaps the Dogs did the same thing pre-finals which could account for their losses to Essendon, Hawks and Port. Difference is ours didn't cost us top 4 (or the minor premiership) and we also didn't get belted by inferior sides like the Dogs did against the Bombers/Hawks. Collingwood was probably our worst game of the season and even then we only lost by 3 goals (with a couple of late ones to the Pies from memory). Hopefully our new strength and conditioning coach (the guy we poached from Brisbane?) has been taking copious notes.

If you're gonna fantasise at least let us get the 4peat sheesh

Remember when we peaked too early? Remember when we were May champions? Remember when we hadn't played anyone yet? Remember when we finished top and won the bloody flag???!!!!!

Anyone know where the best place is to get frames for these posters? What size frame do you need? I've got the weg posters from 1900 through to 1948 which have been sitting in storage waiting until I can put them up with pride now need to get the 55-64 ones to complete the collection and want to frame them all up on the wall in my study. I bought the block mounted Knight poster but want to frame the rest.

Hmm if he is contracted then it wouldn't surprise me to see him back next year. TMac was asked to look elsewhere last year too. He is decent depth and can help bring some of the kids through at Casey at the worst. If we're already letting go/retiring Jones, Jetta, AVB, Lockhart, Nietschke and one or two others then that is a lot of turnover without having a great draft hand or too many players earmarked to come in via trade.
