New Demonland Banner



Recommended Posts

Not sure why but my first impression was of the afterglow resulting from thermal annihilation !!

Not quite a warm and fuzzy feeling lol

My first thought too when I saw it - or the landscape 5 minutes after the final siren MFC vc WCE

I would have to say that i'm not always simpatico with Osiliks views but Dunn deserves a spot on our banner. In my humble opinion he is in our top 8 players and is arguably our most consistent player and perhaps our most underrated player.

He misses few games through injury, hits targets by hand and foot, is good in the air and rarely gets beaten one on one. Seriously how many other players on our list could tick all those boxes.

If it's arguing against one Nate Jones then it will lose, hands down, every single time.

I've never rated Dunn but funnily enough I do agree that he is in our top 8 most consistent performers (unfortunately I just see that as a representation of where our list is at).

I also don't think he's banner-worthy just yet. Maybe it's that mo etched in my memory from the past few years (I still picture him with it) but he's just never been a marketable player in my opinion.

PS In regards to the banner, I personally wouldn't mind seeing some faces from the Team of the Century (keep in mind I'm a newcomer so forgive me if it's been done before). Ron Barassi, Jim Stynes, Norm Smith, Robbie Flower to name a few. There are some absolute legends in that team.

If I have such powers then I really need to figure out how to use it for good instead of evil. Either that or work out a way to monetise it. :)

Put a couple of filth players up, see what happens?

not sure why you would take the old one down without first thinking of a replacement

What makes you think I haven't?

I know what players and images I'm going to use I just haven't finished it yet.

I also like the suspense. I wanted to do it before the season started but life got in the way.

I think we should just wait yo see who stands up consistently this year and add them as we go.

Jones is a given.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
