There has been an influx of new members lately due to our increased presence on Social Media so I thought I would start a new thread for the new people to say hi and be warmly greeted by everyone.

So hello to all the new Demonland members. It's a great time to get on board and discuss the Dees with other Demon fans.

Are we planning a Demonland party after we win the flag this year?

We're not allowed to win the flag this year. A mate of 20+ years has organised his wedding on Grand Final day. Who does that?!

Purposely oppted for a first WE in October wedding for that very reason a number of years ago (plus not wanting distracted guests).

This year our anerversary falls mid week closest to the GF WE.  Hawthorn supporting missus wants to have a WE away for the anerversary, so I stratically pushed back the WE away to the one after the GF.

They can criticise all they like, I blithely ignore them, it is only entertainment after all, isn't it?

Are the bolded bits rules? If so they must be the most frequently broken rules in all of Christendom!

My suggestions?

  1. Please provide some inkling of a source for any rumor, particularly in the upcoming trade season.
  2. Feel free to use riddles
  3. Rumors are fun. Don't hold back (but please refer to point 1)
  4. If posting on a Changes threads, please make a distinction between who you think should be selected and/or dropped and who you think the match committee will actually pick and/or drop

Welcome all.

I've been lurking here for years so not a new member as such, but I've only started posting on a regular basis in the last few months, so I guess in that respect may appear to be new to all the forum vets.

So, erm...  Hi!

I attended an 80th birthday party on GF day last year.

The plot twist is that it was in Melbourne. The party was held at a church so me and a select group of others conspired to duck out and watch the second half at the vicar's house next door.

By the time the final siren went, the select group had grown to 20 people crowded into his living room. 

We headed out after and got overly refreshed with many Bulldog fans. 

Don't consider it a lost cause. Just find an accomodating vicar.

Someone who has surrendered to the new missus prior to marriage.

Can only do further downhill from here.

 

New members always seem reluctant to post. Wonder why that is. Its only an anonymous online forum. No teeth here.

coooooeeeeee!

Hello hello hello hello hello.............

 

Nope, nothing.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
