Demonland Thanks for Season 2018


Demonland

Recommended Posts

 With tonight’s 2018 Keith “Bluey” Truscott Medal Presentation, we will be marking the end of the football season - one of our club’s best in many years.

And this is the perfect time for us to once again thank all those who have contributed to Demonland during the past season as well as all those who post here or simply visit and read without posting.

We value your contributions and ongoing support - especially to Nasher who keeps us going on the technical side, to our moderators whose task is often thankless - a task that is never easy.

Special thanks to our regular contributors, Whispering Jack, George on The Outer, The Oracle, JVM, KC from Casey, Grapeviney and Supermercado (my podcast co-presenters) and all others who have provided us with material and articles.

Let's hope that 2019 will finally be the year that we break through and experience a Grand Final and Premiership flag.

We also look forward to the another year of women's competition and hope a finals appearance there will be a prelude for later in the year.

As always, we are on the look out for new contributors who have something to say about the mighty Demons. If you have the talent or simply want something to say about the club in article form, please contact me via PM.

Cheers, thanks again and keep your eye on the red and the blue.

Goodbye 2018. It was a fun ride. Bring on 2019.

I'm sure I speak for many when I say the pleasure is all ours Andy and crew.  Demonland is an outstanding forum and getting better all the time.  That takes a huge amount of time and effort, and I can assure you that it is greatly appreciated!  Speaking personally as an interstate member, I can honestly say that Demonland is my football lifeline.  I don't know where I'd be without it.

Big thanks to the Demonland crew.

The platform you put up for us is invaluable.

Some really good solid info & opinions, some not so good and still plenty of room for a good old argument.

It's been a great season so lets all look forward to even better ahead.

Thanks Demonland

Thank you to Andy and crew for such a great website, and for season 2018. Also thank you to all the great contributors during the season. I am already looking forward to season 2019 where I hope that we end our premiership drought.

Yep - well done and kudos to all with Demonland responsibilities. My morning routine of reading the  online news, Demonland then the AFL website gets me on my way to a rather boring job.

Fantastic site. I am pleased to recommend it to any supporters I meet as it is not only a great source of information but contains some of the best humour you will find anywhere.

Professionally and tirelessly run. 

I have found it the most reliable system I have ever used. It has been a companion and vital information provider when I have been in remote and overseas locations.

When I have attended marches or been able to get a full media cover of the Demons I often struggle to keep up with Demonland but always find it worthwhile. Don't have to contribute often as it is such a transparent array of emotions.

Keep up the great work.  Happy to maintain membership of the most cost effective communication I have seen.

Thanks hugely to Andy, Nasher, Whispering and all the crew and contributors.  You are a beacon and a lighthouse, sometimes amongst all the tossing and turning insanity on the sea of life.

Other times, you are just plain bloody good comic relief.

Well done all, I love the time I spend delving into DLand.

Thanks to all involved. I especially enjoy the podcasts plus all the serious and not so serious topics that seem to make their way to the forums each week.

Keep up the good work and looking forward to 2019.

My 10th year on the site, and its been the best one so far by a long way. Thanks to Andy and crew and all the mods and people that put the hard yards in to keep the site up and running. Its easily the best fan forum of all the football websites with the best user interface, graphics and appearance. (just drop over to Bomberblitz if you need a comparison fan site).

Looking forward to a great 2019.

WWS.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
