thanks to those at demonland for doing the work to keep this site up'n'goin.  thanks all.

 

well played... b.o.g.

Hi Demonland; not sure if its what you intend,,, but can I suggest ? that the quote text size is made a wee bit smaller, (just a tad for room) & that the 'avatar side personal section ' be made smaller,   & the "quote" "edit"  bottom section be made smaller,  so we get to see more posts from the monitor viewpoint ?

 

cheers Andy & Nash

 

Huge job guys. Well done and a very big thanks for your dedication and efforts.

The single most productive 24 hours of my adult life.

 


I like the shiny new buttons 

Love the new layout. It's amazing on mobile. Haven't checked it out on a computer yet but I'm sure it's good.

I liked the old red and blue throughout the old site. But nevertheless it looks good and thus far easy to use.

Well done.

You haven't adjusted the theme at the bottom of the site. I'm going to force the change on everyone and then if you want to go back to the generic look you can change it manually at the bottom of the site.

 

Oooooh much better after finding the theme button at the bottom. Was very ho him about it until then.... Now cue Big Kev.... I'm excited!


That was the longest couple of days sitting around thinking of something productive to do, ever.

 

Where is this theme button you speak of? I've looked at the bottom, and cant see anything.

Unless I'm mistaken, there are two changes, one of which is throwing me:

- no longer possible to Like your own post (OK ... can live with that ... probably)

- the thread no longer automatically scrolls to the first unread post. (or am I missing something?)

Bottom of every page on the site. It's text that says Theme. Click on it and select Demons. If you want a generic coloured one for browsing at work then choose the Safe for Work theme.

It's very uncool to like your own posts.

Are you referring to the homepage or from the topics list?

If the homepage I am working on that. I have to change some code and it is alluding me at the moment.

If you are referring to the topics list the to the left of the topic there is a solid circle (or star) that you can click that will take you to the first unread post.

I thought the safe for work theme hid BBO's posts....

Thanks for that.

Mine was just a tiny, unlabeled box, that seems to have fixed itself now.

 

So it pretty much only allows the banner at the top? Its the only change I can see.

I tried talking to random people in the street about which first year players are likely to debut in 2016 but no one would listen.

Thanks for the dedication and hard work.  It is very much appreciated. 

One question - am. Missing something or are the post numbers within a thread missing?  No big deal.

Have to adjust my Sarcasometer ... my apologies.

Thanks for the other info, and the work overall, much appreciated.

 

Perfectly happy to 'go with the flow'.  The work that the Administrators do behind the scenes to keep the site up & going is very much appreciated.  Not really sure what I did with my spare time before I discovered Demonland.........

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
