I have never enjoyed reading Demonland as much as right now.

We deserve to revel in victory! The joy, enthusiasm and passion is enough to make you shed a tear.

Lap it up fellow Demons, nothing will dampen this day, its one we will remember for years to come.

And to Jimmy , today you would be the proudest of us all. You set this club on path back to greatness, and today we have taken one almighty step forward. Wish you were here to see the smiles on the faces of the most loyal and passionate fans. Rest easy big fella, our club is in the best of hands.

I was one who said he would never come - I am happy to admit it.

I am obviously not very good at reading between the lines - I usually take no as a no..... oh you little devil Roosy!

I just love it that in the past we would have given up, but PJ stuck at it!

Awesome News @ last. Welcome to our club Roosy. So much respect for a bloke that takes on the ultimate challenge. I actually love the 2 year twist. To me it puts so much accountability back on all area's of the club. Get serious & demonstrate you are prepared to come on this journey with me NOW.

Nice work on the banner Demonland!

You can already see the difference in culture - we are now allowed to smile.

I think this is about as close as Neeld got to smiling - actually I think that's the only emotion he showed in 18 months

Well if he cant get the players to start performing well then we know that we just dont have the talent.

I hope they explain how we are paying him because im getting sick of people saying the afl are bankrolling his pay. Im sure we still have some money in the tin

I step in to the shower when Paul Roos isn't coach. When I get out, Roos is coach. I should shower more often.

Roos has only ever been named our coach once... I'm concerned for your hygiene...

But that was the previous coach

Can Roos change the clubs fortunes in 2 years? - I think he could in 3 years but if he won't be taking us to any grand final in 3 years :(

Still - we have two years to make him stay for longer - lets get to it!

But for now demonlanders - get some sleep.

May suggest a well constructed succession plan. It will be the FD team around Roosy that will perhaps be more important in the long run.

Lol - I can just imagine that is your first shower in a month too. You decided to take a minutes break from refreshing the AFL/MFC page

Ahhhhhh relief. Now the hard work starts. Well done MFC and PJ (AFL). And all the best for Roos and his assistants-to-be.

Roos always left the door ajar with his comments throughout. And everyone involved including his family should be proud of the way he went about it. Integrity.

One more piece of uncut, confirmed news.

MFC wanted 5 years, but Paul Roos would not commit. However, Paul Roos verbally said he WILL coach beyond 2 years and beyond 3 years if all is going well. Roos wanted an out should admin, board etc fail to maintain the structure and standards he requires.

This should keep the entire organisation in line.

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. 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. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.
