    was it a freak event or a result from a lack of funding?

    Yup... someone forgot to put the money in the meter, and the show went off air....

    It would have come back sooner but Nasher only had notes on him, and had to run down to the milk bar to get some change.

    Very far from what I meant. But okay...

    Sorry mate, wasn't having a go at you.

    I suspect the sheer number of people on the site excited by what was happening, and all these people clicking refresh to see the comments coming through just worked over the site a bit hard.

    Nah you're fine.

    I understand that traffic was the instigator, just want to know why it happened and would the correct resources avoid further incident

    was probably due to the ever increasing number of derailed threads - Demonland needs a good cleaning out............. sorry I didn't mean to stray from the topic

    This is what happens when we play out of state:

    Just get rid of Ben Hur and his many aliases. He has the ego of at least 30 members anyways.

    thought of that myself.

    but then remembered that one of the 30 personalities was a good bloke and gave some interesting info every now and then.

    thought the best way to cull demonland is to get rid old buggers over 60.

    What would us old guys do with our time if not for Demonland.

    It's the only thing keeping me from going senile.

    Comeon girls, its NOT us, its never OUR fault the site crashes.

    Its all those bloody journos that come on here from all over the country, wanting to write their scoup for Monday Headlines.

    The Age - MFC to meet with AFL chiefs and demand answers how the game is being umpired.

    The Hun. MFC livid over bad umpiring decsicions.

    Sunbury Gazette; Upset win in S.A Upset demons to meet with umpires

    Healesville Journal. MFC rapt in interstate win, But umpiring is confusing fans and players.

    They all come in here and crash the site, while all we do is post our thoughts on the current state of affairs.

    Roos makes a statement -

    The players have been confused enough with new game plans etc, I dont expect them to be confused any further trying to figure out how to win a bloody free kick!

    Thanks to those who have generously given. We appreciate every cent donated and are putting the proceeds towards sorting out our database and hosting issues. As many of you are aware we have had many outages over the past few months and the worse time for them to hit is post game when we want to vent or celebrate.

    In order to get to the bottom of all the issues it is taking time and man hours and now out of pocket expenses so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks again to those who have contributed and to those than continue to and those who do in the future.

    Is it the venting or the celebrating that causes the biggest problems? If it's the latter, the optimist in me proposes that we encourage more donations and memberships.

    I think i'ts the high use of censored words overworking the censorship algorithim

    apart from having some strange choices it is obviously poorly written and in need of urgent rewrite/optimisation

    Very unreasonable dc! I can understand getting rid of those three layabouts but where would this site be without my insighful views on a range of topics?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      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?
