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?

    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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      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?
