Finally, Demonland is United


Forest Demon

Recommended Posts

After a long off season where Demonland posters have continually been attacking one another over a vast array of subjects. Commonly resorting to personal insults and other childish behaviour. For the first time in months, there is no bickering, no snide remarks about each other, just about everyone seems to be on the same page for the first time in a very long time.

All it took was one of the worst and most embarrassing performances in the club's history to make it happen.

I have been around Demonland reading and posting sporadically for about 7 or 8 years now, and I honestly don't think I have ever witnessed a reaction as unified as the one on these boards in the last 24 hours.

Yes I have, and while there are definitely those who are disagreeing here and there. I think 99% of posters are on the same page after yesterday. Usually there are attacks flying around at each other from all angles.

All off season, there were believers, non-believers, and everything in between. But yesterday broke a lot of people.

I haven't changed, other posters have just stooped down to my level of pessimism about the club now.

But, at the end of the day, we all have Jack Viney, that is something to be positive about.


I've been telling my uncle - a Dees supporter, who brain washed me when I was young - not to give up, because Viney is on his way.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel, we now have a young leader on our list.

We can build around this kid, we should've had 2 - with Wines, but thankfully we've at least got Jack.

Jesse is on his way and Jack Billings will be tanking to avoid coming here, but he will be a welcomed addition as well.

Plenty of room for more youngsters after we cut this list of spuds to pieces.

Count me out of your 99%.

As bad as I felt after yesterday and still feel today, there's not a bone in my body or a red a blue blood cell running through my veins that would make me get anywhere near the negative and pessamistic sentiments I read on here daily.

I Love my club and support 100% those that run it at present. I've sent off my email telling them what I think.

My first and last bagging happened yesterday at the ground when I actually offended myself by bagging my own team like a "rabid" supporter of any other club.

I'll keep on reading Demonland and sometimes I'll agree with what I read.

When I don't, and I;ve had enough to drink, I'll post an answer.

Here I am.

Go Dees. First & Forever

I admire your sentiment. I was once like this and wish I still was to be honest.

Just to be clear at this point in the clubs development this doesn't make you a fearless supporter, it makes you the equivalent of a whipping girl.

We are being taken for fools and enough is enough. I've never felt the anger of a crowd like I did yesterday. It made me proud to be amongst a group that collectively stood together and said we aren't going to tolerate this anymore.

I said it yesterday and I'll keep saying it until we improve: Don't be afraid to demand more. It's the only way we'll get better.

If that's the case then I've been the equivalent to a whipping girl for nigh on 54 years.

As I said I had my say in the email I sent to the club last night, and yes I demanded more

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
