Hello everyone,

I've been a follower of this site for quite a while, and feel i should get involved.

I am a young journalist with a couple of years experience with East Gippsland News. I've also had some placement work at the Herald Sun, Geelong Advertiser and Radio 3AW. I am now back in Melbourne to finish Uni and GET A JOB!

I hope I am not being too presumptuous, but I've recently started a blog (http://wmth.wordpress.com/) and just made a post about the Dees. If anyone is going to read it, it's passionate Demon supporters such as yourself.

Selfish reasons i know, but i would love people to post comments etc and get the ball rolling. The site is certainly in its infancy, but you've got to start somewhere and it's becoming more favorable for journos - especially ones looking for a job - to have a blog.

Thanks in advance,

WMTH

well done, I read you interesting blog, i look forward to further additions. I'm sure you will make an interesting sport journalist.

Can I suggest you post the football URLs on Demonland. I'm sure a lot of readers would be interested in your writing and it would attract an increased readership to not only your football writings but also your writing on broader topics

Good luck. I admire your enterprise.

Cool. We need more demon supporters in the media - take them on WMTH.

Thanks very much for the advice. I am looking to post the URL wherever I can, so ill make sure i do that.

I'll write a few more as the season progresses, and hopefully develop it somewhat. If there are any blogging / online pros out there I'd love some advice on how to improve things. I am learning as I go...

Really enjoying what I'm seeing from the Dees this year, good times ahead im sure.

Hello again,

I've added another piece to my blog (http://wmth.wordpress.com/) for those who are interested. Not MFC related, but something nonetheless. Thanks to those who have commented in the past, keep them coming!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
