Hogan's Heroes wasn't around then. I'm guessing WYL and his constant crusade against mediocrity. ;)

    Really enjoyed listening to this. Well done to those involved. Demonland obviously left a scar on Daniel Ward and whilst i must admit I never frequented Demonland in those days it is good to know that not much has changed.

    Alright fess up, who was mean to Sauce?

    There was an incident a few years ago about a senior player's father cornering a 'senior' member of Demonland at the MCG to have a crack at him over comments on here about his son.

    This is why I always keep my comments respectful. It's okay to be angry or grumpy or not rate a player, but if you wouldn't say it to the player or the player's mother, don't say it on Demonland.

    Ive never bagged our players really, i admit i get frustrated in some Gameday threads but they are just passing comments.

    Having said that, if a player or a players family get rattled by football related comments on here they need a thicker skin.

    H_H the new villain since Range Rover fled, and Stuie started lurking in the shadows only popping out every now and then.

    That's interesting, I seem to have seen that somewhere before, can't place where Nasher

    As I have said before, a senior player told me that the team are told not to read Demonland because 'it is full of negativity', the mud sticks

    It's easy to say that from the comfortable position of never having had every man and his dog having an opinion on your work when they have no idea of the details of it (playing injured, doing as instructed by coach etc). I imagine it's water off a duck's back for most players, but as each individual is different, you can't always predict how people are going to react when the criticism is relentless, excessive and unreasonable.

    Don't know about you Nasher, but I usually end up falling about laughing

    I dont know if you've realised but following MFC over the last decade or so has been a pretty negative experience.

    Anyway good job on the podcast guys, fills in some time on the ride to work.

    That's funny. I've been told not to watch Melbourne games because their they're full of negativity too.

    EDIT: Just committed the cardinal spelling sin.

    I like the podcast, but reading out posts calling spencer a spud and calling a past player a hack is poor form, especially on a podcast where you interview past players.

    Did he play enough games to qualify for Father Son? I loved Obst as a kid was a very skilled and creative player, was a great addition to our 1990 side.

    EDIT - just checked he played 149 games so definitely qualifies.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
