Proud to be a demon supporter

Not me. I see where you're all coming from, and I like the way the club has handled a tough week.

But I felt ashamed on Saturday afternoon, and I still do.

I support the MFC because I like footy, I don't follow it for politics or moral stands.

When the team I support put in a real effort I'll remember what pride feels like.

I don't feel particularly warm and fuzzy about all this. I never thought sponsors should be paragons of virtue and the bloke that is putting $2 million into the club is a jerk. So are many other sponsors- So is the KG Demetriou going to take Emirates sponsorship away from the wobble people over human rights issues.I wouldn;t think so. Essentially we have givers and takers in footy clubs and those rightuous souls who's hands were forced into sacking the sponsor put are takers. I just want us to play good footy and win a premiership. This aim has been set back a few years today.

I was imagining life without the dees today and even though they frustrate the hell out of me, I know my life would have a massive hole in it if they cease to exist. I know everyone who posts here, and thousands of others around the land would feel the same.

We are far from perfect, but I love us. It's a love that can't be described. You can be screwed over by a lover and cast them from your mind, a football club is different. My frustrations from this club come from me wanting them to be successful when they aren't and that is all.

I love this club, I love it's history and the fact that it is one of the oldest sporting organisations in the world. I love it's integrity, I love the colours and the way it makes me feel when I see them having a dig.

Now it's time to listen to some Muse uprising and stick my finger up to the organisation because they will try to [censored] with us but they can't do [censored]!

I have a tear in my eye today. The admiration I have for this club is immeasurable. Big companies will be falling over themselves to be involved with this integrity juggernaut. So proud of you Dees !!! Time for our boys to back it this club up ONFIELD.

Too right. Now if only the on-field performance can reflect our off-field resilience.

It's such a love-hate relationship. These are only achieved if you are passionate. We're in too deep to get out now.

I often wonder if i had gone down a different path, if my dad barracked for another team and i in his footsteps (brainwashed and all), would it be the same?

This club really frustrates the hell out of me sometimes. I have never been angrier than the levels that this club drives me to, but that's only because i care too damn much. If i had my time again would I support the Dees? You're goddamn right i would.

There's a saying in my family...

"There's two things in your life you don't change - your religion and your football team."

And as far as we're concerned they're one and the same.

I'm always proud to be a Melbourne member, regardless of their position on the ladder.

I'm also extremely proud that we have a CEO like Cameron Schwab at the helm. He's been a fantastic representative of the Club he loves over the last few months and beyond.

Go Dees!

The Bears are eing thrashed the way we should have treated them. Which tells me we, Right Now are a very poor side. But our coach is a teacher...we must climb each week. To become elite. Dam the media, as long as the club hangs tough. It just has to be done. Those who do not embrace will be cut.

Yeah, because we have a midfield of Judd and Murphy. Tonight just shows how important a brilliant midfield is.

And people ask "what do we stand for". Now everybody knows. We stand for integrity, honesty and principals of the highest order. Rare values indeed in todays society. At this moment in time I could not be prouder of the MFC.

+1

And I like demonland better when we stand together.

Ran out of likes

So much to support especially when "backs are against the wall" " what doesnt kill you makes you stronger" etc

Passion is obvious on the demonland site

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
