Thanks for all the kind messages of support. It really means a lot.

A merry Christmas to all.

and keep contributing to 'Land.

All the best rjay and family: I hope you get some time to remember a good woman with lots of fond memories.

For Christmas at our place we always got our kids a major gift, a minor gift, and a tiny little token thing. So -

Big gift. Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon and Hawthorn to be the bottom four teams for 20 years. Let me sit back and watch them become the Dees, Doggies, Lions and Saints of the 70's & 80's. Hopefully, one of them would have to merge or relocate to survive.

Minor gift. Footy Journalists begin to actually report on the GAME; not the club/AFL politics, not unimportant night habits of famous players, not giving opinion as if it is fact, and actually not reporting rumour, speculation, and social media fairy-floss. Just report on the best game in the world.

Token gift. For James Hird to travel to Darwin for holiday, and for Matty Whelan to line him up in a shopping centre and lay him out just like that great bump in the Elimination final in 2006.

Rjay, my condolences. Some Landers will be aware that my old man passed away this year and this is our first Christmas without him, so I know to some extent how you're feeling. Stay strong brother. All the best.

Condolences rjay. Hope you enjoy the festive season even during this difficult time.

All I want for Christmas is to get through one more week of work hell, go on holidays, find millions of dollars while I'm in the US and then proceed to tell my bosses to go to hell. Not a lot to ask really.

Mine would be for Demonland to bring back the Like Button. As this post would possibly get my biggest like of 2013.

Merry Xmas to all of us mad enough to follow the MFC. Go Dee's.

Thanks P-man. It will be a difficult Christmas for both of us, cheers mate.

So while we're on the subject of losing people, a very special supporter of the club who I have known since my schooldays was tragically killed in a car accident last week. I didn't know her very well but she was an avid Demon fan and whenever we met the conversation would turn to our footy team.

If any of Miriam's family comes across this, please accept my condolences on your very sad loss and the same to all who have lost loved ones this year.

Rjay Condolences, a tough time for your family.

To all the demonlanders family my very uncreative wish is you all have a relaxing and happy christmas with your loved ones and thanks for the discussion this year.

Lets hope Mr Roos turns out to be santa and brings us many wins.

I couldnt express it any better Well done and thanks Robbie.

May we also have plenty more fantastic discussions next year.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

    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
