There's no link between growing popularity and your post frequency.

I posted a year or two ago that the club should use this forum to communicate and educate it's most passionate fans. Since then we've had some input on here from Cam but I still maintain that the club trivializes us on here with their absence

We are arguably the most passionate of the passionate yet they are silent on here, I disagree with their low level of Demonland input

Congrats to the people who make this site possible though, well deserved

I don't agree with that - I think the club should only get involved in rare circumstances.

Credit where credit is due. Everyone involved in this site, from the owner to the mods, have done a great job over the last 12 months.

Well done guys

Couldn't agree more! Demonland is my first port of call every day! Thanks to everyone involved, including contributors who give me my daily 'footy fix'.

True... perhaps it's because I went from being single, to being married, having a toddler and now another baby on the way. :wacko:

I couldnt agree more with the clubs absense from here. Im a full supporter of the separation of powers - church ( us ) and state (mfc)

I acknowledge everyone is only wanting the same end result but the levels of passion and in particular the direction of some of the passion from this site leaves me scratching my head in disbelief - I can only imagine what the powers to be at the MFC must think.

Edit - well done on this site and its moderators

DemonsHQ are on here and just recently were encouraging people to complete a survey about online forum usage etc (maybe they were aware of these figures?). I would love to see them have more of a presence here where they could float ideas with a view to getting "true" supporter feedback and where questions and suggestions could be put directly to them... perhaps set up a dedicated forum here, where the Casey forum previously existed?

Yes, well done to all.

Very well run amd moderated.

It looks better than other forums and the vast population of Land ensures it health and it's ability to acquire some of the most challenged individuals - like any society.

And rpfc says - in the words of John Hodgman - You're Welcome.

You can be assured that the Club monitors this site, but as for 'true' supporter feedback I am not entirely sure this is "rue" as some of the views on this board are not balanced opinion and can get quite emotive and destructive

But the Club does monitor and can see what is on the supporters minds, hence the output from the Club on the Club website and new initiatives appearing all the time

I am sure if you look at the topics poosted on this board they range from who should be delisted (which usually starts after the first NAB cup game), to why do the bumper stickers fade in sunlight, so the Club gets to see a lot of output both good and bad.

I would not go out of my way to advertise my presence if I was from the Club, as it lead to such things as Nathan Jones taking a break from all the vitriol he received on Twitter after the Collingwood game

And no I don't work for the club

Congrats and thanks to all involved in the maintaining of this site. It is great for me living in NSW, as it's nice to be able to feel a little involved when I'm so far away.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
