A BIG THANK YOU

Featured Replies

Posted

A big thank you to all those who contributed to Demonland during the past season and also to everyone who posts here and even to those who visit but don't post.

We value your contributions and ongoing support - especially to Nasher who keeps us going on the technichal side, our moderators whose task is often thankless - especially so when we go through a season such as the last few we've experienced.

Particular thanks to our regular contributors, Whispering Jack, George on The Outer, The Oracle, JVM and KC from Casey. With the exception of KC they've often had to report on games and subjects that have been difficult to write about in 2013 but I reckon the coming ones will be more uplifting and exciting stories than those gone by in recent times.

As always, we're hoping for a bigger and better season in 2014 and are always looking out for new contributors who have something to say about the mighty Demons.

If you want to contribute an article feel free to contact me via PM.

Cheers & thanks again.

 
 

Sharing my grief and disbelief with fellow Demonlanders is all that kept me sane (albeit only slightly) during season 2013 .......... and now that the trade / FA / draft season is upon us, I can see that many around here suffer from a similar affliction. Thanks Demonland ...... BRILLIANT work!.

Amen to that Deeoldfart.

I swear that Demonland has kept me going the last three years without you all ( even the ones who don't like me ) I am confident I would have packed it in.

Staying the distance has been very hard the last three years.

Probably the toughest period in the last 49 years.

Thanks to the guys who keep Demonland alive.

I really appreciate it.

OD everyone loves you here.

It just when you go over 10,000 posts you must have an Avatar!

I have a few dozen suggestions for you in that area.

Thanks all it been a blast on the Demonland Forums.

Just keep in mind that we may not agree with each other on many things, we do on that topic that really counts. We all support the MFC!

Fairly confident that is not true TBF but I don't lie awake at night worrying about it.

Not sure about the last bit TBF especially the "all" bit

'Course we do.

Echoing the above sentiments.

At last the worst season I can remember in 60 years of supporting this club is over and the time to once again suckle at the breast of fantasy is upon us.

Time to enjoy 20 weeks without losing a game.

Doing a great job guys! Keep up the good work and Go Dees 2014!

Thank YOU to all the administrators, Mods, Nasher & WJ, KC, GotO for your contributions. To all other contributors - it has been entertaining.

Looking forward to 2014.

Thanks Demonland, for creating and maintaining a great forum for us Dees supporters. Thanks to all those who worked - both up front and behind the scenes.

Great job Demonland bosses for allowing the chance for us all to purge and share our supporter angst in this annus horribilis yet hopus nextyearus.

Who here is not a MFC Supporter?

Who here is not a MFC Supporter?

Me. I'm a Dawks supported and we just won the premiership.

Hey why is this forum called Demonland. It should be called Dawkland.

Oh did I mention that I am from an alternate reality that split from your one in 1996 when the once mighty Melbourne Demons merged with the Hawthorn Hawks. It's been smooth sailing for the Dawks since the merge.

How has it been for you guys?

Thanks to all the Owners, Mods and helpers of Dawkland for keeping this site going. I forgot how ugly the Melbourne jumper without the gold hawk was. So plain.

And I actually supported his team yesterday.

I will take it as a life lesson and make sure it never happens again.

OD you are right mate, there are very bad people here.

Is it possible to Ban this guy from this site otherwise I may just fly over to Melbourne so I can xxxxx him in the face. No one dishes my teams jumper unless their one of us.

I was being sarcastic and attempting some humour but it seems to have gone right over your head.

I'm a Demon born and bred so I'm just as miserable as everyone else here.

Oh then your allowed to make a comment then.

All is forgiven.

I have not been at it quite that long angrydee I think the last three in succession take some tossing.

I'd like to thank the D'land crew for giving me the opportunity to share my witty and incisive comments on a variety of subjects. Although, I must say there are one or two swine (you know who you are) who do not appreciate my pearls.

No Way BBO that can not be true.

We all love you on the DL forums.

We must mark this club hard from now on.

We are the backbone of the supporters of this club.

I read Dland before i read the club website.

I am still pumped that PJ signed Mr. Roos

We members deserve the best from this old and proud club.

It will rise and we are the beginning of making sure it does.

Our list is not good enough. It can be in time.

Those who wish to leave can leave. We will build a list of September players if the members expect it. Average performances must be unacceptable.

What i am saying is take off the red and blue glasses. We must be hard on this club. Roos must do at least 3 years. If he walks that could be the end.

But he is not going to...We must demand that the whole club toughens up. To win the 13th we have to beat similar pressure that we witnessed yesterday.

120 minutes of sustained pressure.

Weekly.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
