Well it might have something to do with his knee,
that he hurt slightly last week when he was tripped. I
don't know, they're keeping it all very quiet.<br>CAn
SOMEONE PLEASE FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON WITH OUR
SCHWARTA!!

I'm not happy does anyone know why he didn't play????? I MISS SCHWARTA. I LOVE
SCHWARTA.. and has anyone else noticed the great man's new six-pack :p ooh yes,
schwarta baby that's what we like!

I don't know if any of the rest of you had the
opportunity to go to Optus on Sunday to see our game against
the Tigers. I did and I didn't like what I saw. I
thought the most noticeable thing on the day was that we
looked pretty ordinary up forward without the Ox doing
all the bullocking work and clearing the paths for
the little blokes. Poor Neitz seemed to be trying to
play Gaspar into form and just did not impose himself
like Schwarz does at CHF. I want the Ox back and I
want him NOW!

Hello!<br>Oh my God! Did anyone else get the
fright of their lives when Schwarta was tripped and then
grabbed at his knee?? I can tell you I held my breath! I
hope it's nothing serious.<br>But isn't the man
looking good?? It looks to me like he's been working hard
over the summer and lost a bit of weight. He's lookin'
mighty fine anyway!!<br>Well I'm so relieved to have had
my footy fix for the week, I was really starting to
have severe withdrawls!<br>GO DEES!<br>Kelly.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooh i want to see
Picture! I'm not going to be a happy chappy if they don't
reannounce the great man as vice. lik really unhappy. but
apparently he's still in the running. i hope so.

Woohoo, I am taking a train trip out that way
tomorrow, can't wait to see the huge Schwarta
pic!<br><br>How are all you guys anyway?<br><br>I can't believe
it's been a whole summer without footy... and REALLY
can't believe I haven't updated ANYTHING on the site
yet -&gt; OOPS! I've been in enemy territory in WA
for a while, piss weak excuse I know, but it's been
hard to get to a puter and some Ox info. Am going to
go to a pre-season training session on a hot day
soon, and hope that I can get some pics of the man
himself topless and sweating :) Sorry, had to go
there...<br><br>So what do we all think of the upcoming season? I
can't believe the first game is only a few sleeps
away.<br><br>And what is with the Dee's not naming Schwarta vice
captain again? Has anyone heard any inside goss about
that? Not happy Jan!<br><br>Mae

For those of you who travel by train from
Richmond to Flinders Street in Melbourne turn your heads
towards the Dees offices on the ground floor of the MCG.
There is the biggest picture of Schwarta I have ever
seen beaming out at us poor bunnies on the train.
Makes you glad to barrack for the Dees and glad to
travel by train!

I think that he has been delisted, it's terrible,
because he was apparently offered a spot on the olympic
running side, asked mfc for permission, and was denied,
then a few days later was told that he would be
delisted if he didn't retire. and on another terrible
sunject. what's this about about not annoucing the vice
captain until after the anset cup? if they choose
somebody else over schwarta then i won't be a happy
chappy. any way five days to go!

Hi guys, <br>Can someone tell me please if Scott
Chisolm is still with the club or has he been de-listed?
I'd just like to know what he's doing and if anyone
can tell me, someone in here can!!<br>Not long now
guys.... NOT LONG NOW!<br>Kelly

Only a month full of sleeps to go before we
thrash Freo over there in the Ansett Cup. The game
starts at 9:30 Melbourne time so we may have to wait for
a delayed telecast as there will be other games on
that night. Still, it gets us closer to the concept of
live matches where we can cheer for the Legend and the
rest of the boys. I might put some beer in the fridge
now, just to make sure it is cold for the match!

Hello all!<br>thankyou so much for all your
messages this year, I know none of you know me all that

77 sleeps seems like ages, can't wait to get the ball bouncing.  Hope Jay Viney
is as good as his brother.  LETS GOOOOOOO Dees

YAY.. 77 more sleeps until the first Dees Game, are we all pumped????!!

Thanks Mae!  I was right and he was wrong!

Now that I have your attention (sorry to mention
the two words together Mae)let me update you on the
Dees night. The best news was Schwarta being made a
life member - he has actually been at the club since
1991 girls. A well-deserved reward for our
boy!<br>Neale Daniher took us through the "Where to from here?"
speech with the theme Meaner, Tougher, Stronger. Sounds
like Schwarta will have to get all hot and sweaty
doing more weights and stuff. He will probably require
a rub down nurse - anyone interested?<br>I digress.
The idea is that we have such a young list (only 5
guys over 25 and guess who is one of them?) so they
don't have long term injuries and will fill out as they
mature. This will enable them to play better under
pressure such as the GF and to handle the new expectations
for success we all have. Apparently the Team of the
Century stuff has inspired the current crop to make some
history of their own and ND was continually referencing
2003 as the time when the current players should be at
their peak in terms of experience, size, leadership,
tactical skills etc. He mentioned that we were getting a
fabulous output from the leadership group, including The
Ox, and that we had Wheatley, Whelan, Nathan Brown,
Bruce and Little Macca to bring in to the GF Team. He
also pointed out that we will get more out of Simmonds
and Green as they were belted out (my words) of the
GF early. ND did drop something of a bombshell as he
was saying that Schwarta had somewhere between 1 and
3 years left in him. Perhaps one of you can look
after him be offering him a retirement home?<br>The
whole night was informative and built on last year. I
suggest that you all make the time next year to go along
- you get a footy fix in November, get to hear the
coach speak openly about what's happening at the footy
level and can get a real sense of where we are heading.
Plus they sell beer. Unfortunately none of the players
turned up. Perhaps if they knew the David Schwarz Zone
group was going to be there in force that may tempt
some (or one in particular) to get there?<br>If you
have any specific questions, let me know.<br>The Dee

target=new>http://www.demons.com.au/demons.cfm?location=403</a><br><br>WOW!!!
Congratulations on this well deserved honour Schwarta!

I didn't make it to the meeting - please tell
all...<br><br>I just renewed my membership though... this little
chicky is updating to "Captain's Club" so I don't have
to queue up again for Grand Final tickets when we
WIN THE FLAG IN 2001!!!!

**** swoon ****<br><br>Can we please NOT use the
words "naked" and "Schwarz" in the same sentence... I'm
over heating here! Not to mention being overcome by
waves of intense jealousy! Did you at least take some
pics of this wonderful sight for us?

2 !!!!!!<br><br>(I had number 2 on my Dee's jumper, even for years after he
retired, until Schwarta came along to capture my heart - and jumper number!)

Can someone please sttle an argument for me and tell me what number Robert
Flower was.  I would appreciate a response ASAP! Thanx Guys!<br>Kelly

OK dudes and dudettes - who is going to the
Bentleigh Club to hear Neale, Ando and Joe tell us how good
we are going to be next year? I went last year and
thought it was a great way to get some football contact
in the down season and it proved to be a very
informative night. Neale's explanation for letting Matthew
Bishop go to pick up Stephen Powell was one of the gems
and didn't we get the better of that deal? I am
expecting a full report on how Schwarta is and will report
back on events. Dunno how many sleeps to the Ansett
Cup but it is too many! Go Dees!

I'm so jealous!!!! You saw Schwarta half
naked?????!!!!!!! Ohhhh to be in your shoes!!<br>Being a country
gal I would have no hope of seeing a training
session, but I can only dream!!<br>Anyway, thanks for the
update, I really appreciate it. Please keep it
up.<br><br>Kelly.

THERE'S JUST ONE THING TO SAY TO THAT AND THAT IS<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
GO DEES!!!!

Hi everyone!!<br>Guess where I went this
morning!!! To the Beach Rd Oval in Sandy!!! Why???? To watch
the DEES first pre-season training session. So, since
me and my two fellow demon fans were the only ones
there, I thought I'd give you all a report about how the
boys looked.<br>No-one seemed to have put on too much
weight- it was pretty easy to tell as the majority of
them weren't wearing tops!!! YES GIRLS- SCHWARTA WAS
RUNNING WITHOUT A TOP.........AND YOU ALL MISSED IT!!!!!
ALONG WITH WOEY, ROBBO, GREENY, CHELL AND THE REST OF
THEM!!!! IT WAS VERY NICE!!<br>Little Macca was there
walking laps and occasionally jogging which was a good
sign. <br>Big Macca didn't train- I presume his knee's
still not right.<br>Johhno didn't train- as per
usual!!! He was given the job of timing the boys which he
gave to Big Macca after about 5 mins!!!<br>The
draftees looked great- most of them were at the front of
the running packs- keen to impress i suppose.<br>Liam
Pickering from Geelong was there- he wasn't training- does
anyone know anything about that??<br>So, whilst none of
them were too enthused about their first training
session, they all looked pretty fit. I hope this report
has made you all feel better about not seeing the
boys half naked!!! Nah, just kidding, I reckon we're
in for a big year next year. yes, bigger than this
year. I'm ready to take that next step to Premiership
Glory, I'm sure the players and coaches are and have no
doubt that every one of you are pumped and ready to
go!!!!<br>Good luck with any exams you've got left and have a
great summer dreaming about our first game next year
and that special Saturday in September!!!!!<br>Catcha
later,<br>Dianna.<br>DEES FOR PREMIERS 2001.
