Since we did a hardware upgrade a few months ago the site's hardly blinked, even with Neeld happening and so on. You can never be 100% sure but I'm pretty damn confident you can all do your worst at slamming the site and it'll hold up.

Oh, you are going to have a good day aren't you!

Probably a Roos announcement and then the proof of a recent software upgrade withstanding all the use that will be generated.

I'm a non-technical BA, Nasher, but I know that feel bro.

Enjoy it.

Roos set to be announced today. The whole waiting till tuesday was a gimmick. The family had already discussed over family dinner he would coach.

Yes, well really it was another ploy to buy time until he's ready to announce it.

A shorter game version of his "I'm not interested... at the moment" when he'd long ago decided to look into it long & hard.

Why Walsh would be a big pick up as well, no Roos but could Beverly important long term.

I want whatever it is you're on!

While Denham can eat of bag, I am relying on the Bandwagoners to pay for Roos.

WELCOME LOST DEMONS!!

THE G DOES LOOK DIFFERENT DOESN'T IT? IT WAS RECENTLY REVAMPED...SEVERAL YEARS AGO...

NO, I AM AFRAID THAT BROCK McLEAN DOES NOT PLAY FOR MELBOURNE ANYMORE...

BUT THERE ARE MANY PLAYERS OF REASONABLE TALENT TO WATCH!

ENJOY!

How's Barry Ough tracking ?

Come on! Don't be so logical! This thread didn't get to 200 pages due to people being logical!

absolutely!

we havent been logical about Roos for months now and guess what he is most likely going to be our coach.

So us being illogical has ended up in the eventuality of Paul Roos being our coach!

we demonlanders must influence the decision of Roos?

Tender hooks accompanied by extra large thumbs not designed for smart phones..

There's actually 888 on the site now.

Most ever online at once was 1407 in November 2012.

I suspect that will be broken today.

The site might get a bit slow at times but it should hold up OK.

In Nasher we trust.

To all intensive purposes, the entire Demonland patronage may be on tenderhooks in one foul swoop.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
