  • 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.

Please, is it possible to make these non auto-play ???   just appearing in static image, until clicked on?

 

It effects those in remote areas, with slow internet speeds.  And makes the PC slow to load other pages.

There are 10 gifs playing, on one open tab page... slowing the graphics.

lol.

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Pray let it be a Melbourne-Collingwood  Grand Final. At least we get the opportunity for revenge for the 1958 Grand Final when they prevented us from winning a record six consecutive Premierships (viz. 1955, 1956, 1957, xxxx, 1959 &1960)!

To beat Collingwood by a point with a Sam Weideman goal kicked after the siren would be a wonderful sight (especially if the cameras were all trained on Eddie McGuire)! ?

Ok dumb question... how do you get the video in the first place? Do you download the entire game from somewhere, or record it digitally somehow?  My game replay is sitting in the IQ but I've no idea how I'd capture that in a video file. 

Yea i have it digitally. Bigfooty melbourne board has a replay archive as an easy way to download the game or im sure it will be on YouTube at some stage.

stopping a gif auto playing does not affect your internet bandwidth

gifs are downloaded in full whether auto played or not

Well it might be slowing the computer when 10 gifs are rolling on one page at the same time?  or something else is?

Can I stop these from auto rolling within my PC ?

I would prefer to just click on them, to watch it once?   rather than a page full, all going like carnival lights.

Just watch every Melbourne player's reaction on that bench. It's a work of art.

JONES: "I can't even believe how good these kids are."
SALEM: "Yass! Wait, don't draw attention to yourself Christian. Keep it cool."
WIEDEMAN: "Eh…it was all right. Better kick it but."
SPARGO: "Lemme at em. Lemme at em. Oh I probably shouldn't run on the field though or they'll wipe our score. Probably just sit down."

funny stuff.  i remember thinking the other night similar things.  They look like us.  Fans.  brilliant.

but.....stopping them is not going to solve your perceived problems. .i.e. bandwidth and cpu impact 

i find it ironic that someone who likes visually polluting their posts with strange use of caps, highlighting, mixed fonts, spacing, font size, colour changes and myriad other visual desecrations is upset at auto-playing gifs

but each to their own. if stopping your gifs playing makes you happy then great

Full credit to our resident @david_neitz_is_my_dad  GIFmaster for that one.

 

First request -  Petracca laughing at James Sicily after he was outmarked by Melksham in the last quarter.

Wow. Have a look at Bruest trying to stop Viney with a kicking motion. That is dangerous and should be outlawed. Has the potential to break legs. I am glad he has the worst two finals in living memory (well maybe not as bad as 'neon Leon'

p.s  if it's not too much trouble I'd love a gif of Brayshaws mark and goal at the cheer squad end, followed by the crowd shot of the woman waving her scarf and balling her eyes out. Loved that moment

Bloody woman nearly got me going ........
I know how she felt.

I not bothered by one Gif, but about a whole column of Gifs, all auto-running at the same time.

But that's all fixed now, thanks daisy.

 

And I got the news programs background  advertising auto-run Gifs as well,,, with the same hit.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
