THANK YOU FROM DEMONLAND


Demonland

Recommended Posts

A massive thanks to you Andy, to Andrew and all of you who have helped provide such a wonderful sight for Demons fans.

As someone who lives overseas, I love being able to get on here and talk some footy with fellow Demons fans, as God knows there isn't any other opportunities living in rural Nepal!

Great site fellas and, as was noted earlier, a great outlet for footy heads. One of the great pleasures is getting on the site after a win and, conversely, finding humour (and possibly inner strength) in adversity. Go Dees.

Indeed.
Being back in Nihon, it's great to have an outlet to talk about footy.
It's also nice to engage in my little sparring sessions with various posters.
Thanks again!

I waste so much of my life on this website, but guess that means I enjoy it. Thanks heaps to those who run it (whatever that entails) and looking forward to a year when the actual footy season is more exciting than the trading season, sure its just around the corner....

Thanks everyone for your contributions. Demonland is the awesomeness that makes each season far more interesting than it would otherwise be. Not to mention, the site is a great reminder that I'm not alone in the torment that has been the past decade following my beloved Demons.

Thanks to the brewers/distillers/winemakers of the world, who keep our community level headed, reasonable, and clear thinking, in the toughest of times.

Mods, agree, well done for your thankless efforts.

KC, and the guys who post the inside scoops, huge thanks.

I echo these sentiments (minus living in rural Nepal). Demonland makes being a Dees supporter much easier when you're living abroad, and I think that without it I may have thrown in the towel long ago. It's a fantastic way to stay informed about the good (and not so good) things happening at the MFC and is one of the main reasons I remain a member despite not being able to attend many matches.

Thanks Andy, Demonland mods, and all contributers. May us long-suffering fans taste some glory soon.

Concur with the above.

And a special thanks to the track watchers who give us all those training reports, particularly during the off-season. I know much of it is nonsense and written by supporters who manage to find stars on a cloudy night, but I don't care. It's just a bit of fun.

In particular, if Satyr/TDI can find the time to get back to training and provide his entertaining reports, I, for one, would be very appreciative.

I first joined in 2007, and since then I've spent way too much time here.

I should hope and pray for continued mediocrity from my footy club, because if we ever get any good I don't know how I'll accomplish anything at all.

Thanks to everyone. I have no friends who are Demon supporters so the world often feels like a lonely place. Its great to know I have company and that's what will make it even more special when we win the first GF of my lifetime - I will have lots of people to share the love with!

If, sorry when, we win a flag we should have a demonland party. Come dressed as your favourite poster

    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

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
