Is that why I didn't have any problems with the changes. I use CC cleaner. clean the crap.

I then have to re log in.

so thats what kept my pc up to date.

Most likely. According to the Message Board Software tech support the issue only would affect some people. For instance it effected my home computers but not my work.

The banner looks great, love the red fox in there,and the others.

Nice work to all involved.

I see you left the far righthand corner vacant to slot in flag 13 :)

Very nice work on the banner - I reckon David Neitz should be in there - record games, record goals, record games as captain - under-rated.

It's not final but I thought I would get something up to compliment the other changes.

Golly gosh I do believe the curse is lifted !! ^_^

Now if the bloke 3rd from the right can only get commitment and ability onto the field that #'s 2,3 ,4 and 5 in that pic had , together with the belief and unrelenting tenacity to the job at hand that the bloke on the left had.. Then we'll be fine !! :)

Sorry to be a party pooper but I don't like it.

To me it is like the blazers they are a symbol of living in the past.

The MFC have constantly failed for 48 years.

I prefer to look to the future.

Prefer the old banner with mainly current players.

Just my opinion for what it is worth ( probably not much )

No offence or anything.... I love this site, however the new skin is slightly more flashy, thus making it harder to hide within the clutter of other programs at work.

You have raised my slacking stress levels significantly.

Sorry, Old Dee. Disagree with you this time.

Having a 'heritage banner' isn't a symbol of failure. And it makes the site Administrators' job easier because they don't have to keep changing it when a current player, for whatever reason, needs to be removed.

Another poster has suggested including David Neitz. I can't quite work out why I think this, but somehow I don't believe he deserves it. Am I being too harsh?

Just an opinion mate will not change my view of Demonland or make me post less etc.

Just prefer the other type.

Re Neitz You may be but whenever you have to make a decision like this there is always someone who is stiff to miss out.

I don't put Gary Lyon in the same group as the others but that is just my view other people obviously do.

You're just upset because Jamie Bennell didn't get put on the banner.

One thing we need to embrace old dee is our history, we are the only supporters in the world who can lay claim to being the oldest football club in the world.

We need to remember our heritage and look to the future we can do both.

Manchester United who I hate with a passion are currently in their most succesful period and have been since 1993, but those in Football who think of United think of the Busby Babes and the Munich Air Disaster, that is what they are most famous for.

I'm all for left side being the past and the right being the future, maybe as a transition we can have Todd Viney and Jack Viney meeting in the middle.

My complaint is we do too much of the former and not enough of the other PSD

No big deal but the MFC do irritate me with their obsession of a glory that finished half a century ago

I am impressed with the Demon greats forming guard-of-honour on the Demonland banner, but surely Checker -play like demons - Hughes should have got a guernsey as the man who originally revived our club in the 30's and who coached the club to the 39-41 triple premierships. He even filled in when Smith was briefly stood down in 1965. For that matter I would also chuck in I.W Smith. The width dimensions could be achieved by making gary a little less hairy and robbie a bit skinnier.

Easy bush demon take out G Lyon ( not in the same league as the others ) or M Neeld ( has not achieved anything yet )

Congratulations to Andy for the new Demonland banner. How he got match.com to put up pictures of all those women immediately under the parade of stars amazes me. What a triumph.

(If other posters have not been blessed with match.com's incessant banner advertising, the above won't make sense, but consider yourself lucky).

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
