The Canberra Demons (formerly known as the Eastlake Football Club)[1] is a semi-professional Australian rules football club based in the inner-south of Canberra, in the Australian Capital Territory. The senior team competes in the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL).
In January 2016, the league announced that Eastlake would rebrand and now be known as Canberra,[2] though the Eastlake name would live on in local competitions.
