In an uncertain world, I am reassured by the certainty of your being common dc .

thankyou bbo, as always a true gentleman

how is your epithany coming on at the training camp?

You are if you want me to agree it's a problem.

I have I een the more verbose and dim members on here say it a handful of times in the last decade, have not seen it recently and would make the person know it BS if I did.

The only thing that has come close recently would be when opposition teenage supporters troll the site during trade week and some on here question the veracity of a one post supporter claiming Nathan Jones is off to Essendon...

Well I guess it's a good thing that I don't care whether you agree with me or not. You should know by now that I don't care if I'm right or wrong, I just say stuff.

Thanks Daisy. I'm touched that you have come around and now consider me a Quotable and Eloquent Demonlander.

Maybe the QED you stated had nothing to do with the mathematical/philosophical concept, maybe it stands for:

Quite Egomaniacal Daisycutter.

How is life out there in chardonnay country?

Spewmante country at best!

Now that is an effort to get behind. Let's start a change.org petition to get the ball rolling:

Change Burwood's name to Spewmante Country.

Come to think of it. This kind of waffle is probably a good reason why lurkers don't become regular posters.

neither, gentlemen

burwood is undergoing a rapid ethnic cleansing of the greeks and other lesser ethnics

the asiatics are ruthless and relentless. they don't have time for bourgeois boozing

besides, burwood is still dry

the hipsters of the inner north and willy should take note.....they are on borrowed time

I wish there were a pub out where I am at. There is the Boathouse on Raleigh Road which is 20 mins away by foot (preferable after a decent session) but it's full of plastic fantastic bimbos and blokes suffering from roid rage.

There is always the Waterloo Cup down the road from that (I dropped in for a quiet ale for the first time in seven years not long ago). Alas it was lacking.

Anyway, enough of this load of cobblers. We may as well rename Demonland 'The No T$ No BS board' if threads continue to descend into farces such as this.

Edit: Not the Boathouse, the Angler's Tavern.

I thought you were advocating a Demonland pub crawl for a minute there ... :)

As someone who has only read this forum for a long time, you could all stop sniping at each other! I have never posted until now because I don't want to be taken apart for saying the "wrong thing". I am a new Demon supporter, because a family member is in the team, I am overseas and this is the best way to find out all the news. Interesting threads go way off track because too many people take offence to differing opinions. It is ok to have differing opinions, it is not necessary to crap on and on hoping to get everyone thinking the same way as you, or knocking them for thinking differently. Quite frankly some of you are just plain nasty.

If your wonderfully negative first post is indicative of your usual attitude then you should fit in nicely.

Welcome.

Pull us up on it. When posters have said something reprehensible - let them know, when we are crapping on, point it out.

The best posters on here don't involve themselves in the above, and don't deserve to be lumped in to the worst excesses of a few idiots.

Please post more, ignore those you find nasty (literally using the Ignore function in your profile) and contribute to this mess.

Again, welcome to Demonland - in more ways than one.

Once you are a Melbourne supporter - there is no escape...(new slogan?)

Welcome aboard. We hope you stay a Demon not just for a good time, but for a long time.

Just in case you're not familiar with the site, you can place posters who annoy you because of their nastiness or any other reason (such as general inanity) on "Ignore". Just go to the top of the screen and select Manage Preferences (or something like that).

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
