I have been a long time viewer of Demonland Forum's however untill now have never felt a need to sign up and put something out there. Unfortunitly after saturdays disgraceful performance I feel the need to get some things off my chest to some fellow demon members.

If you look at the clubs who have dominated the comp in recent years they have had strong uncomprimising people in all of their key roles. The pies have Eddie, Mick and Nick Maxwell (I dont rate him as a player but he bleeds for his jumper), the cats had Costa, Thompson and Harly, the hawks have Kennett, Clarko and Hodge/Mitchell. These blokes are all hard tough straight talkers.

Jimmy aside, all our key roles are occupied by people who are unable to push the cause when the chips are done. Let's take the Tom Scully situation, I love the kid but he should have been given a deadline to decide what he wants to do, we are not geelong, and we are not able to get to a prelim final with this amount of media on one of our key players. When Robinson stated we played bruise free footy the reaction from our footy department leaders was weak and poor. If that was said about the Pies Mick and Nick Maxwell would have been on the front foot making sure Robinson new he was going to be in the gun next time around. If our leadership group was more worried about putting their head over the footy instead of just lifting stacks of weights and looking tough (Col Sylvia that's u) then maybe Jordie Mac, Jack Trengrove, Jack Watts and the other younsters wouldnt have to keep getting their heads bashed in trying to get the footy.

The one thing Baily got right this weekend was when he said we took some massive steps backwards, saturday's performance has put us back 10 years...

Chers from a very disgruntled, shocked and Unhappy demon supporter who is sick off sh$t House performances like saturday from the footy club he loves

    Well said.

    The Tom Scully situation has been a blight on our club all year.

    Handled appallingly by all involved.

    Our on-field efforts mirror the weak, insipid kowtowing we've seen off-field.

    • 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.
