There's a nice symmetry, a poetry, to it. Schwabby and I departing on the same day.

Like him, I've become a lightning rod of late for the frustration, anger and disillusionment of online MFC supporters struggling to come to terms with what's happened to this once great club.

This is understandable. It's bloody hard to face the reality that you support a football club with an ingrained culture of failure of over 50 years standing. One day, when things settle down, I'm quite sure you'll look back and appreciate the efforts I've taken to help you wake up, recognize and acknowledge the situation. If you haven't already.

Today was a watershed day for us, no doubt about it. The day the MFC 'proletariat' fully woke up to its plight. It's a bitter pill to swallow to have the The AFL step in to assume the running - by proxy - of the club, but as the sick patient that we are we must accept that this is what must take place for true healing to occur. It's our only shot at survivial at this stage.

It's certainly better than the alternative had drastic change not occurred ... extinction.

So, good bye fellow Demons. Keep up the good fight. And try to listen and take note when you can of the likes of OldDee and WhyYouLittle. Posters like these men (and women) represent the wise and knowing elders among you ... they are the online conscience of the MFC.

Go Dees. Now and Forever.

    So long old chum. Although I never engaged in battle with you, if I had of, I am in no doubt that you would be a more than worthy opponent.

    See you under another pseudonym soon, or perhaps when the dees next make finals. Or maybe not at all.

    Whatever comes first.

    I look forward to walking past you at the G' without even knowing it was you.

    Caio'

    Will you be back as the Hulk this time?

    Words of professed wisdom from the person formerly known as Range Rover; "Do not hand this club over any more of your $$$ or a minute more of your precious time until sweeping changes are made"

    Words that have infinitely more relevance from Satyriconhome;

    "Nineteen asked me to pass on our work tonight on yet another interesting day at MFC

    Turned up at the G unaware to be greeted by shattered staff, if the CEO is hated by some, the staff loved him

    15 of us turned up tonight which was great, Jason, Daniel, Andrew, Cheryl, Geoff, Dave, Michael, Michael, Stephen, Anne, Chelsea, Judith, Trish, Peter and Geoff who had to leave early, thanks to everybody who turned up including the newbies

    Surprisingly we still managed 22 sign ups but importantly about 300-500 phone calls

    Some of us managed to chat to Cameron, who made the effort to come and thank us for turning up to support the Club, and yes I shook his hand again

    I congratulated him on a couple of things that will be a lasting legacy, the emblem and the blazer, the players all love it, and in case any of the doubters want to question, I hand out scarves on Match Day and we had 18yr old Nathan Stark with us last Saturday, I asked him what he thought of the Blazer and he loves it. I have made a point of asking the others as well...so thanks Cameron for giving us an individual identity back...and thanks for the thanks....and the joke about applying for job at AFL HQ

    The Membership staff really do appreciate the help, so next Monday or Tuesday if you want, contact Nineteen on here."

    Good riddance mate, I sure will miss your arrogance and self righteousness.

    I feel like you might have been better suited to pre-revolutionary Russia, though they might have just shot you instead of kicking you off an Internet forum.

    Ciao

    Please mods, can you lock this thread poste haste - any comments (both negative and positive) simply serve to feed his insatiable ego. Cut off his oxygen now.

    As much as I actually agreed with some of what he wrote, especially on our ex CEO, which also just quietly had me doubting my position because of who I was agreeing with, the only thing to say is...what a spanner.

    • 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.
