  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

I'm starting this thread because Andy is too much of a gentleman to ask for some help to run this site.

Everyone of us has benefited by the the conversations, banter, humour, despair, joy and excitement of being part of this site.

What else would we be doing during the off-season without our daily dose of Demonland?

To the point, the site costs money to run.  You have all seen the value of the new software that Andy and Nasher have installed.  And guess who paid for that?

What everyone doesn't see is the extra time and labour and tweaking which then has to be done to make it all work.

"Demonland is a Melbourne Football Club fan site powered by fans for the fans. There are many costs associated in bringing you this site. We offer Lifetime and Annual subscriptions so that you can contribute to the running of the site but we are also aware that there are people who want to contribute but can only afford a little bit or have already contributed and want to again. If you would like to make a donation to Demonland it would be greatly appreciated and will go towards running and maintaining this website. "

So without Andy having to ask, perhaps we can all show our gratitude and thanks by tipping in a little toward the target of $2,000.

 

EDIT: Changed the target to $2,000 which is what it cost Andy to purchase the new software. 

Here's starting it off with $100

Now that the site has been up dated i seem to have lost the info on when my subscription is due.

Can anyone help?

I can help you with that. I will get back to you shortly. We are currently upgrading the subscription software and it will be online and available soon. I will start up a separate thread when that is ready.

I agree 100% george.  As I said in another thread, I'm an interstate member, and Demonland is my football 'lifeline'.  Long may it prosper, but that won't happen without a hell of a lot of hard work by the dedicated Administrators, and the generosity good will of Demonlanders generally.

Im a life member which was pretty cheap a couple of years back.

If I pay 10cents per hour I read this site, Thats at least 1 hour a day. (sometimes 3) Times 7 equals $.70 a week.

Times 52 = $36.40 a year.

Ive tried to wean myself off Demonland, but like MFC Ive been too long in the wasteland and Im rusted on.

I can easily donate another $36.

Cheers. Thank you guys. Your generosity is very much appreciated. Forked out $200 for a club raffle ticket today. Who wants to go to LA with me if I win?

I think their raffles have predetermined results, just like how they reward Melbourne based members that attend every home game and not interstate members who continually renew their membership, and offer incentives to new members.

 

just my thoughts....

That is so generous of you guys. Thank you so much. It is very much appreciated.

Here is a link. http://demonland.com/forums/clients/donations/

There is a link on the homepage too.

Cheers Andy. Happy to contribute.

After so many raffles, I reckon I'm well overdue for a prize this year. 

The closest I've come was the China Southern Airlines promotion at the G. My paper plane missed by a bees digit, thanks to a wind shift surrounding the G. Well that's my POV anyway :)

OMG when I went to the donation site it said the total reached was $666. I immediately panicked and tried to add another 50 to get away from that infernal number but the process keeps jamming on a 'share location' pop up. Have tried exiting and starting again three times, but the same thing happens.

That infernal number is my fault. Apologies Doc. #dontpanic

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
