i'm just doing something on the blueseum and does anybody know if the demons were called the redheads or something like that previously or have they always been the demons? i've been on their website and read through their whole potted history and it doesnt get a mention so i assume that they've always been the demons.


Redlegs?


:oops: is that what they were before demons?


Not sure, but my Dad used to always call 'em redlegs - kind of in the same way the 'roos are known as the 'shinboners'.

Melbourne were known as the Fuschias (the flower) before they were called the Demons.

Sorry TrueBlue, No idea.

If you send a PM to Old55 or Demon2 they might be able to tell you.
