I'm surprises that nobody has addressed the big question of the draft!

Will the Demonland server stand up on the big stage? When the pressure is on to preform, when the heat is on, when it faces its biggest test of the year?

Imagine the distress and pain a simple driver error could cause. A simple database error and the health of so may Demon faithful would be effected.

Let's hope Demonland have a backup plan, a plan B, let's hope they have thought outside the square and are overseen by good governance with good systems.

Let's hope they understand that the happiness of literally 1000's of people rest in their hands.

Good luck Demonland and thanks for your efforts in providing a great draft and trade period so far.

And let's hope we do find a friend for Jesse.

    Is anyone else having trouble with responding to posters? If I try to quote another poster it doesn't bring up details of the post I'm responding too.

    Maybe I've been banned and just haven't been told?

    Yes, I'm having trouble too.

    Thank God, I thought it was just me.

    Not that I want you to have trouble Bob I just don't like being alone.

    That's been going on you a long time now... best policy is to apply the old adage, if at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again. Still, it's better than the opposite problem where some posters manage to get twice the quoter quota of quotes per response.

    I'm not having any issues.

    What are you doing to try to reply to people? What browser are you using? Is it up to date?

    It appears to be an intermittent problem... I have found that sometimes when you click on the Quote button nothing will appear quoted, but when you go back and click again, the quote appears; probably 8 or 9 times out of 10 it works just fine. Doesn't appear to be browser related as I have had it happen in both Safari and Firefox (never use IE) and both of those are always kept up to date.

    When I click on quote to respond to a poster it comes up with the reply box but not the quote I'm responding to; like this one I wanted to respond to your post and this is what I got.

    Also if I try to cut and paste nothing at all comes up.

    This is my work computer and we are on Internet Explorer 10; it's the first time it has happened.

    I did have a funny "log on" this morning and I might reboot and see what happens.

    Re booted but still the problem remains.

    Is Demonland clever enough that we could actually select posters we want to have this problem? I can think of a few...

  • Quote

    Yes, this is definitely the biggest issue of the draft but we have full faith and confidence here at Demonland in Nasher's ability to ensure that the site stands up on draft night at least better than the top order of the Aussie batting.

    Of course, if the recruiters use pick 9 to select a dud, a spud, a crock or a convicted criminal, we might be stretched to the limit ...

    I think they may be that clever, they have singled me out by the look of it; well done 'Land.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
