Hey all,

I'm a recent sign up to demonland.

I've started a new blog about being a Dees supporter in our tough times.

I hope some of you guys will find it enjoyable to read over. I'm taking a lighthearted approach to the topic.

So have a look and hit me up with feedback.

www.diarydemon.blogspot.com

If you don't enjoy it please keep feedback constructive rather than crude.

Thanks all,

FCmelb

    So it wasn't the worst we could have expected!

    I was pretty pleased in patches and then in fits of rage as we softened up and let the Pies kick an easy 4 or 5 goals.

    Still, when we showed we actually wanted to go hard we were on terms with them. Take a bow Jack Grimes for the head clash contest.

    This is a blog I've started and am writing each week having a look back at the games with a bit of a light-hearted approach.

    Have a read.

    Feedback very welcome, please keep it constructive if you don't like it.

    Thanks,

    So season 2 starts with a win.

    Can the Dees salvage something from the second half and show us supporters what we so want to see?

    I also wanna know, what do we think about the new backline without Garland and Rivers. Will it stay this way???

    I spose it's about versatility.

    I've started a blog that I hope all supporters enjoy.

    Hit me back with some feedback if you're interested.

    Cheers,

    Honestly? You are probably better off posting here if you want readership, but that's just my view...

    lol

    What is a blog but a mini-forum with one contributor?

    Thanks to 'Demon' for the feedback.

    As a result here's a little bit of this weeks blog:

    Footy is a physical game. We often see players go so hard at it that neither gets up unassisted. We watch as bones snap, heads clash and concussion sweeps through a playing list.

    This, I already knew.

    I did not know, however, that spectating could also prove quite so physically demanding. Waking up Monday morning I felt as though I’d gone three rounds with The Champ (I can just imagine every boxer of the last 10 years, with their self-inflated ego’s, reading this thinking, “hey, he’s talking about me”).

    But why?

    Well I knew the loss of our favourite son Mitch Clark would hurt but I was hardly prepared for just how much. When the news broke last week I had no plans for a candlelight vigil down at AAMI park.

    Now I’m selling candles for $2 each or three for 5. See you there.

    If you're interested in checking out the rest please hit the link.

    Also please keep that feedback coming. It's much appreciated.

    Thanks guys,

    Here's the next one guys.

    Bit of video content in there this week.

    And as with last week here's a little of the blog up front:

    I wasn’t able to catch the whole game on Saturday and apparently that wasn’t such a bad a thing. Going off what people have told me, the parts I missed were just about as bad, if not worse, than the one’s I caught.

    So what to make of it?

    Well, considering the actual game was a battle of who could lose first, maybe we should turn our attention to things that managed to be more painful viewing for the time being. We'll get to the calamity later.

    The advertisements. Now these are worse. They have to be.

    Latest update following another bout of disappointment.

    This week sees a nod to Dennis Parker. Don't know who he is?

    You should. And you won't regret it once you do.

    Cheers guys,

    There’s one thing worse than leading a game for three quarters before conceding seven goals to zip in the last and finishing up 34 point losers. That thing is Fremantle’s club song.

    Following a spirited display for most of the game I know I felt pretty flat when the final siren sounded. I sat there thinking, “well, that was rubbish,” and then the Freo club song started, rubbish had new meaning.

    Alternatively ,you could quit your rubbish blog and just post random and obscure thoughts on here and cop "feedback" like all the rest of us .

    Individuailty is frowned upon in here-so just be yourself .

    If you cant be yourself ,then just write what everyone finds socially and morally acceptable so we can drift into a deep coma and ignore the needs of our families/housemates whining and rustling around the place .

    I admire your ambition and entreprenuereal spirit in trying to create your own thing but I am suspicious of creativity in general so I have organised a hit man funded by guys like Nasher ,HT ,Old Dee and the Neo cons to vist you at your blogosphere .

    Sorry.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
