Well, I had a crap day.  The footy sucked. Blundstone Arena sucks.  How good is it that there are seats where it's physically impossible for 7 year olds to see? And which quarter would you like to miss while you get food? Such a shit game day experience.

Then Demonland crashed after the game.  Brilliant!

I don't know. Sometimes you need a good vent and Demonland provides that for many. Bottling it up can be worse.

Kept hitting refresh thinking it would be fixed any second. Think I have repetitive strain injury in my right hand. Now I know how BBO feels.

After my nearly 4 hour drive. I had to wait 50 minutes for the bloody printer to work at the main gate to print my ticket! Not sure I'll be back at this venue again in a hurry!

How come you had to print the tickets? I just flashed my tickets on my phone and they used a paper one to operate the gate.

Who does Demonland use for hosting? Was it a temporary ban for excessive CPU usage? Or the hosting just couldn't handle the traffic?

Yes i was picturing 40,000 other demonites like me venting their frustration. Probably a blessing in disguise in the end.

 That was the start of it but at some point the database was corrupted. Nasher to the rescue.

We've done that many times. Some weeks we're fine. Others times it shits itself. It comes down to a matter of cost as well.

    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

    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
