Hi Demon desciples,

I Am new to Demonland as a poster anyway & glad to be a part of it!

Ive been reading Demonland for years, especially for the offseason Demons fix I crave daily and have to say I love the passion for our club here at Demonland.

I see a lot of banter mostly good natured and humorous and I love that we have older generations and younger generations posting.

Also glad to be a part of the 20k+ Demons membership! 23 years straight!

I am starting to get a bit excited...like all of us for next season..Liam with a full preseason..Chip the all Oz...Jamar the all oz...

All the young stars in the making (So many)..Bloody bloody exciting...no debt...new emblem which I think is great & modern.

Lets face it...yeah, we are at base camp but bloody hell we are back finacially and building a strong foundation on that without getting carried away too much.

Demons fans have stood up to be counted.

We will not be bent over by other clubs anymore on the field..not with the players & melbourne people behind the scenes we have now.

Our bad run is history and we now strive hard for the 13th flag we crave badly.

So yes in a nutshell I am very pumped up with how things are going at MFC and I'm going to be loud in the Redlegs section this year!

Ps does anyone have a general nickname list for the players.

i know a lot but not all of them.

Cheers Demonlanders

    If you do a search in the top right corner for nicknames (maybe use advanced search and isolate it to thread titles) you will probably find one.

    Thanks 45HG16

    Great to see there are people who still love Wrecker!!! He was my favorite for years.So freaking tough!!

    And cleaning up Hird with the Hip and shoulder was pure gold.Never will i forget his tough presence for a smaller statured backman.

    I wonder where Wrecker is these days..I havent heard.

    Rookie Dan Nicholson was called "Nicho" at training the other day.

    How's that for inventiveness?

    Sylvia's Mother was an early 1970s hit song by a group called Dr Hook & the Medicine Show. Typical Rex Hunt nonsence!

    Col Sylvia's nickname amongst the squad is Hank because he reminds the guys of Jim Carrey's alter ego in the movie me my and irene

    Shattered "Noah" never caught on for Trengove, thought it was a ripper.

    Considering the nickname is based around people getting his name wrong, I'm not surprised at all.

    And wouldnt it be "Only-one-ah"?

    Hank.

    Bad boy Billy / Bowser.

    Chip.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
