Tuesday 8th May - Drogheda Road Trip
Well done to all involved in organising the Drogheda trip and indeed to Justin and the Dockers!!! I’m sure anyone that attended would agree that the facilities and hospitality were nothing short of 1st class. Good news on the Demons front with both A & B Teams securing victory in all matches played, although it appears that the Midland Tigers are a force to be reckoned with, especially in the Nightclub after a game!!! New nicknames to be awarded for the trip were:-
Stuart (Bozo) Harrison, AKA the Walkabout Kid, Bozo, tell us, where did you get to really???
Shaun (Bouncer) Saurin, AKA SHAGGY!!! (It wasn’t me!!!) For reasons that we will not enter into here.
Big Phil (Porky), I’m not sure how I got stuck with this but thanks Aaron!!!!
Jason (Beckham), Aptly named for his white football boots!!!!

Tuesday 8th May - Farewell
This is indeed a sad time in Demons history where we have to say a temporary farewell to some well respected members of our great club. Not only have we to say goodbye to “Captain Digs” but the time has also come to farewell KB and Header (The Milky Bar Kid) all of whom have been great contributors to both the club and the league since it’s inception. I’m sure the US will be able to handle KB but I’m a bit worried about Header hooking up with Mooner’s and destroying my home town of Perth.

Sunday 22nd April
We're getting set to head to the FSS cup in London. Most of the lads are taking the Ryanair xxx flight over to Stansted on Friday and flying back on Monday morning. We'll be staying at the BOKA Hotel in Earls Court and playing on Saturday 28th April 2001 at Trailfinders Sports Ground, Vallis Way, Ealing W13.  The day will start with the first game kicking off at 12 midday.

The easiest way to get to the ground is by tube to Ealing Broadway where there will be a FREE shuttle bus to the ground. If you get an over-ground train, the nearest station is Castle Bar Park, which is a couple of minutes walk from the ground. Click here for a map.

Saturday 31st March
After delays due to Foot and Mouth restrictions, our matches league begin. 

Demons A played the Leeside Lyons down in Cork. Although only a 9 a side match, a strong side of 20 Lyons players were ready to play - a good sign of a new and skilled side this season. During the game Choppo hit the deck with a buggered knee,  and required the frequent application of a pain killing beverage. A great night out hosted by the Lads in Cork!

Wednesday 14th Feb
Dublin Demons have been invited to play in a tournament in the US. The Chicago Swans hosted a small tournament last year and are planning on hosting a bigger one this year (hopefully 6-8 teams, with a few good choices amongst them). Proposed dates for the tournament would be in August 2001, either one of the weekends 11/12, 18/19 or 25/26. Already there is strong potential interest from Denver (2000 US champs) and Nashville (finished about 5th or 6th this year). Preliminary interest has also been shown by New York and Boston and Canada.

Saturday 14th October-2000  The Dublin Australian Rules Tournament was held at Clanna Gael. Four teams participated, the Dublin Demons, London Gryphons, the Belfast Redbacks and the Clanna Gael Celtic Warriors. The Final was held between the Demons and the Gryphons, the Gryphons winning with a goal just before final whistle. The Presentation was held at Dicey O'Relies, followed by a long night of drinking out of trophies (Flaming Sambuccas!) at the Vatican.  Thanks to Tír na n-Óg tours for superb job in sponsoring the event.

Saturday 14th October-2000 
The All Ireland Australian Rules Series final, match three of three, was held just prior to the Dublin Aussie Rules Tournament. With the media attention of both RTE and Australia's channel Seven, and with guest player Dipper (Hawthorn Footy Legend), the game was well played and hard fought by both sides. The Dublin Demons were the victors, taking the series trophy.

Friday 6th-October-2000
RANDIROO's third event. 

Friday 1st-September-2000
RANDIROO's second event. Another great night, raging till late with a 250 punters staying on till 4:30am to watch the ALF grand final live. The Boat race was "won" by those cheating Kiwis this time, and the £1 Corona's and 2for1 Fosters pretty well set the mood.

Saturday 19th-August-2000
The All Ireland Australian Rules Series, Demons Vs Belfast, 2nd match of three at St Patricks, Drumcondra, Dublin. With a full and healthy side, the Dublin Demons easily take the second match. The North vs South series is tied at one game a piece.

Friday 4th-August-2000
RANDIROO was born. The brain storm of Head and with help from DJ Hinds, Game Boy El Presente, Flier Kabir, Diggs and Skippy the night was a great success. Open to all, the Vatican was packed out by 9:30pm with merry Aussies, Kiwis and Irish making the most of happy hour drinks and Anzac music. 

Saturday 29th-July-2000
Demons Vs Belfast, first match of three. After delaying the match a couple of weeks for the marching season to settle down, the Demons traveled up to Belfast for a full game of Aussie Rules. Grounds and Posts generously supplied by the Belfast Council. After two weeks of fine, dry weather, it bucketed down five minutes before kick-off! The ball was slipery and players were skiding all over the show. It was a fun game none the less - the first victory going to Belfast.

Saturday 24th-June-2000
Irish Vs the Bogans at Clanna Gael. With three lads dragging behind him, only a broken hamstring could drop El Presedente. Another great intra-club game, the Bogans being the victor this time. The day finished with Mooners and Mossy's send off at Dicey O-Reilies.

Saturday 17th-June-2000
Demons Vs Clanna Gael GAA club - International Rules. The GAA lads were skilled and fit. First half was with a GAA ball, second half with an Aussie rules ball. A fine game of International rules, hopefully the first of many to come.

Sunday 27th-Feb-2000
We confirmed our membership fee of £30 (including insurance fees). Some discussion was held regarding hiring a bus, filling it full of booze and players, and heading off over to the Bundi Cup 15th April - leaving Friday morning and returning late Sunday night. Still tossing about ideas regarding goal posts. With lateral thinking on overdrive, Kiwi Glen came up with a laser goal post idea and Crispy continues with a water spout goal design. Both idealist were dismissed on the grounds that they were engineers, and that they should not be taken seriously unless fully sober.

Sunday 30th-Jan-2000
Belfast lads drop in for a training session, and a few beers. The lads have a ground up in Belfast suitable for a game of Aussie Rules. Preparations have begun for a match between the two teams - the first Aussie Rules match in Ireland!
