  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

I use, and like, the MFC android app. But the energy watch logo is still staying on the app. Uninstalling and re-installing doesn't fix it.

Anybody else use it, and still have the EW logo (or doesn't have it?)? The club says its been 'fixed'; I have twittered them, but no response.

Don't know Mono unfortunately I have a blackberry and there are few apps for anything on it.

Do you get anything more than on the MFC web site?

When I first read the title of this thread I assumed that someone at Demonland was suggesting the players were applying themselves like androids, which may explain our poor performance over the first two rounds. If this is the case, could Hymie from Get Smart be rookied as a gorilla-forward? Daleks could be used on the interchange bench to zap a few opponents and the robot from Lost In Space could be used as a runner and cry, "Danger, Danger!" if Jack Riewoldt starts taking a few grabs. A cheer squad of fembots wouldn't go astray either...

Excuse my ignorance with apps, but what does it do ? What are the benefits ? Is it just an easier way to read the website on your mobile ?

An app (short for mobile application) is specifically programmed and "installed" in OS. As such it can make use of the features of your "smartphone" (such as GPS for example). This one contains articles / videos / stats / fixtures / twitter integration / access to demons shop / membership info / tickets etc

An app is distinct from a "Mobile version" or "skin" such as used by demonland - which is a mobile "theme" (enhanced / adjusted design/display of the website for viewing on on a mobile device - EG sized to avoid scrolling to read a single sentence) - and is usually just the same content via alternate url...

Checked my install of the app this morning and unfortunately still has the logos. Checked for updates of apps and it wasnt there. I know the club have bigger things to worry about right now, but it would be good if one of their social media developers gets onto this, wouldnt be that big a job to udpate.

As for what this app does, gives you a quick easy way to access all of the useful content of our website, its a great little app!

If you have a mobile device (not an android) and looking for something similar then there is this http://m.melbournefc.com.au/ which does similar things to the app (this is a "mobile version" of the site rather than an "app")

I'm a big fan of it too, really easy and useful. Just checked for updates to get rid of the logo - also can't see anything available.

Yeah not sure how wattsup has managed to lose it

Perhaps wattsup has the iPhone version - I have both, and there has definitely been no android update made available, yet there has been an iPhone update that removed the offending logo.

Contact the club. The logo should be removed.

I emailed them last night, with screen shots. Should not be hard to fix; they announced by twitter days ago that it was fixed; well before the iPhone app - clearly someone has got it wrong.

I have an android, but I'm not into twitter, etc, so I doubt it's for me.

But thanks for going to the trouble of explaining.

They have got it wrong... no doubt about it. The date of the last update according to the "Play Store" is 22nd March. They were promoting it today on twitter and I responded informing them EW is still appearing, so between all of us communicating with them in one way or another, they will be sure to get the message.

Had the following tweet response from @melbournefc: "we thought the logo had been removed. We're working with the AFL to get it removed asap."

Finally fixed on Saturday. Not sure why they are relying on the AFL to fix it.

Next problem: the EnergyWatch logo is on ALL membership cards!

The AFL are listed as the 'developer' of these apps. If you look in the store all teams apps are available

and they're all identical. So as part of their new rights deal I'd say Telstra have been asked to create apps

which are effectively mobile version of all the sites, replete with Telstra logos plastered all over...

With regards to the membership cards, there would be no cost justification to reprint them wholesale. Already

they'd be reprinting letterheads/stationary, as well as all the clothing/guernseys and advertising material.

Seriously, is it really a big deal? If Energy Watch is still on MFC apparel may as well have a laugh about it or ignore it. Not try and cover it up like its nazi paraphernalia. We know what's happened. We know not to use Energy Watch's services (I wouldn't have anyway even if the guy didn't turn out to be a lunatic). They're just two words. What's more important is that our team watches its energy on field.

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.
