Did our win crash demonland :)

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.

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

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.

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

problem is there are too many members

we need to cull some

i'm starting on a list (bbo biffo stuie and moonshadow are first cabs off the rank)

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?

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
