If this one isn't up to scratch it's going to be where the F is Nasher, because I'm going to flee to the Seychelles or something. :P

I didn't think the subscriptions were that high!

Thanks again for your constant efforts over such a long time mate.

I don't mean to jinx anything, but I'm finding things really fast and distinctly lacking in error notices.

There's only 360 people on the site at the moment. The real test will be once that doubles. If it can hold up under 800 I will be happy. I will be thrilled if it survives over 1,000.

Damn you, Titan!!

Thanks for all your hard yakka Nasher. Now, silky smooth with pace and grunt .... just like our 2014 midfield!

The best way everyone can thank Nasher is by contributing to the costs of the site.

You can do that either by taking out a Demonland Subscription (which removes the Advertisements and gives you access to the smarphone skin of the site) - http://site4.demonland.com/forums/index.php?/subscriptions/

Or if you have a Subscription you can always donate here - http://site4.demonland.com/forums/index.php?/donate/

Nasher has done a stellar job in moving the site twice in one week and the work he does behind the scenes to bring you this site is just incredible. I am putting together some thank you money to pass on to him so any contributions would certainly be welcome.

Please remember that in order to bring Demonland to you guys on this dedicated server I have outlayed a significant amount of my own cash which is ongoing so any help over the time is certainly appreciated.

Thanks again to Nasher and thank you to all who have contributed already and to those that get on board in the future. This site is the sum of all it's parts and we wouldn't have this thriving community without everyones participation.

Go Dees 2014 and beyond.

Awesome work Nasher

Now I can concentrate on not getting any trade news because there isn't any as opposed to not getting any trade news because I keep hitting refresh..... ;)

Nasher, Demonland, thought it was about time I put my money where my keyboard is. Just signed up for a Lifetime Membership. Least I can do after 7yrs of your much appreciated hard work by you guys.

Absolutely, but even at low traffic periods the previous site was crashing for me.

FWIW, it's 12.10pm now and the site is still going great guns :)

Damn. I knew it.

At the moment we have 653 and things seem to be travelling well. The real test is post any announcement made by the club. If it can hold up under that strain then we should be right. Our record is 1407 which was draft day last year so that is always a good indication. Even post match doesn't match those numbers.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
