THE END OF DEMONLAND (Coming Soon?)


Demonland

Recommended Posts

If only Fairfax could get as many people to sign up. I have paid an annual subscription. This site has helped me stay in touch with the Demons, when the games haven't inspired me.

I have only known about demonland for a couple of years, wish it was longer.. There's not many of us dees supporters around and after more depressing news that has been the norm over the past 6 or 8 years, it is a comfort to come here and be amongst those that are feeling the pain too.

So... Time to pay up, I will do so gladly, and appreciate the efforts of those behind the scenes.

Go Dees, and see you all at the G on Saturday night!

Mr. Demonland I have asked this in the past " Is there anyway of advising members when their annual membership expires"?

I never know when I should be paying mine.

If I knew a date I would renew on that date as I am sure I have run over the 12 months in the past.

Perhaps list it on my information area?

I am very sympathetic to the plight of Demonland and have been trying to donate $100, but it is sometime since I have used PayPal (being an ex bank executive I think it is a dog of a system anyway) and so my accounts are out of date on it. Why can't we simply donate via credit card?

I hadn't used PayPal in ages either, but basically it is just like using your credit card. I put my credit card deets in and that was it, no PayPal login or anything.

Or I just got scammed and put $100 towards some Nigerian blokes new Beats by Dre.

Sorry to get into banking details, but this works fine if the accounts on paypal are current. Mine are not, which means I have to go to their site to change them before I can transact.it is frankly a pain in the arse to have to do this when you don't use paypal for any other purpose. Most other sites simply allow you to transact using a credit card alone. I know some say this is risky, but personally I'd rather make that decision that have to go thru this laborious process.

Hello there - sub to Demonland finally paid, also processed donation to the club for undertaking the appeal, (I would have paid whatever the verdict).

Am now working on three new club members here in New York. One ex pat Aussie MFC fan that work at the UN, his Columbian wife and his one week old son, am a bit nervous for the poor bloke his son needs heart surgery (at 1 week old, parents too nervous to buy kids stuff in case it's not needed :( ), so I'm not boring him with footy stuff just at the moment, although he is a passionate fan.

Guys - Paypal stands up pretty well, it's not a big stretch to update your paypal details, we are all keyboard warriors anyway....

You can pay via credit card.

Just follow the prompts through to PayPal and when it gets to the PayPal screen it gives you the option of signing in to PayPal (if you have an account) or paying via credit card. You do not need a PayPal account to donate. It is facilitated through PayPal but you don't need an account.

Just a minor point, earlier in this thread it said annual membership was $25. Why was it $30 when I subscribed?

The prices went up at the beginning of the season. We had a sale where the subscriptions for 2014 were at 2013 prices. I cut and pasted the prices from last years thread and I did not change the prices. I apologise. If you would like to PM me your PayPal account name I would be happy to refund you. Let me know.

My goodness. You are so fair and generous. If he asks the $5 back, let me know and I'll donate it back.

For consumers Paypal is great. I have used it for over 10 years. In that time I have had several disputes with traders/ sellers and all have been resolved in my favour including a sum in excess of $2000 for an overseas transaction. If you have a legitimate greivance they are on your side. Got my money back every time. I swear by them.

No, not at all. I probably didn't read the thread carefully. Happy to be a member at that price.

You read the thread correctly. When I created the thread yesterday I cut and pasted from an earlier thread from last year. I changed the amounts and then I got distracted and closed the browser window before I hit post and had to redo the thread and then when I cut and pasted again I forgot to change the amounts from last year. I apologise for the confusion and that is why I offered the refund. Cheers and Go Dees.

I think it'll be more helpful receiving annual payments so I bought a yearly and donated an extra $70.

Thanks to everyone that contributes to the site, it's my 2nd favourite thing on the Internet, besides porn.

I regard Demonland as footy porn. Good or bad, it's always worth a look, and a daily dose is is essential for a healthy lifestyle (especially as I'm old, and live in Canberra!).

I'll make another donation on that basis.

Hang in there with your friends. From my experience every little distraction helps at times like that.

If the MFC helps your friend get through it may well be the best thing the MFC does in 2014.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
