A big thank you to all those who contributed articles to Demonland during the past season and also to everyone who contributed articles and who have posted here and even to those who visit but don't post. 

We value your contributions and ongoing support.

We're hoping for a bigger and better season in 2013 and are always looking out for new contributors who have something to say about the mighty Demons.

If you want to contribute an article feel free to contact me via PM.

Cheers & thanks again.

No It should be supporters and posters like me who have the opportunity to be part of a wide community of Melbourne supporters who should be thanking you. If it wasn't for Demonland and 'Ology I am sure my interest would have waned long ago.

Couldn't agree more Mydee. As an interstate supporter, Demonland is my football 'lifeblood'. Sincere thanks to all involved in Demonland! I don't know how you do it, but you manage to keep me sane, but drive me mad at the same time.

For all the occasional bickering, most (though not all) who post here seem to be passionate fellow Demon worshipers and I for one am very grateful to those who run the site, and to most of the posters.

Let us all look forward to a huge preseason and 2013!

Well played 'Land. To the people who run the sight, & to those who pass on info & thoughts.

We are a tough bunch to still be here in 2012.

thank-you to the people who run this site (prefer the more common spelling myself) - won't take long before we know what will be happening to our beloved club......................

No, thank you Demonland! You have saved me. Before i stumbled upon Demonland I was of the belief that I was an irrational pathetically pessimistic demon supporter who only ever saw the darkness, a lost cursed soul doomed to walk this earth alone in my misery. Now after a year or so of following Land I know that I am not alone at least. In fact compared to many on Land I'm positively optimistic. Praise the lord it's a miracle! Thank you Demonland.

We should also thank the moderators on the site (disclosure - I'm one of them :lol: ). It's a difficult and often thankless task having to act at times as arbiter of what is and what is not permitted on the site. This is especially so when we go through a season such as the one we've recently experienced (and the one before that).

There is no such thing as an uneventful football season but let's hope that the next one will have some more uplifting and exciting stories about them than the last two.

I would also like to add my thanks to everyone involved in running this site. As a lone Melbourne supporter in my family and having no friends who follow the Dees, I now feel a part of the Demonland family and know I am not alone in my love for this great club.

I have just returned from four weeks overseas and thanks to Demonland, I had my finger on the pulse of what was happening at home.

Looking forward to a great 2013. Go Dees!

Yep basically agree with all above

Isolated from Melb and being busy running business 7 days and maintaining small rural property

DLand is a great alternative release. Cheaper than a psychologist

A great collection of like minded who dont mind giving or getting mild offense blended with some outrageous humor.

Really appreciate the dedication of those who provide training and match reports

and the attention of the moderators and admin who keep it ticking along.

My only concern is I find it so fascinating that it it sometimes consumes too much time

But through it all the Passion displayed provides hope for us all.

GO DEES

Thanks to everyone involved in running the best football site on the net, with the best articles, accurate information and (mostly) logical and fair discussions.

THANX LANDERS.

YOU HAVE BRIGHTENED MY RATHER MUNDANE EXISTENCE OVER THE PAST 12 MONTHS.

KEEP UP THE FRIVOLITY.

Yeah, a massive thanks to all the site administrators, posters and viewers.

While there are divergent opinions, perspectives + arguments, we all have one thing in common - we love the footy club and would love to see us climb back off the dungheap and back to the top where we belong.

Kepp the faith peeps - after all success will taste sweeter considering how much bitter we have been forced to swallow over the last few years!!

Same here DOF. This site (and 'ology back in the day) gave me a connection to the club and an opportunity to network with other MFC supporters I'd never had anything like before. I don't think I'd be even a fraction as passionate or active as a supporter if I hadn't had such an opportunity to feed of others passion and support.

It's why I like to give back to the site as much as I can.

I think you give way more than most of us Nasher.

May the sun always be at your back.

Thanks to those that run the site, and those who post. Demonland gives me an outlet for procrastinating at work like nothing else can! And for this I am truly thankful!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
