G'day all! Been a while since I've been around the Demonland traps but I've started a new series that I thought would interest a few posters.

Apologies for the shameless plug, but for those who don't know, I've been editing and posting Demon highlights to YouTube going on 5 to 6 years. After a fairly dull 2019, I thought I'd rev up production on a new series to fill the red and blue void over what's sure to be a long summer. This series is called 'The Three Votes' and showcases some of the many best on ground performances we've seen by those donning the Demon gurnsey!

First cab off the rank was Max Gawn's BOG and breakout performance in our iconic win against the Cats back in 2015!

I'm proud to announce that the next instalment will be premiering on YouTube at 7:00pm tonight and will be highlighting the much loved Jimmy Stynes and his round 18 performance against St Kilda that would see him awarded three votes on his way to winning the 1991 Brownlow Medal! You can watch the highlights package at 7:00pm tonight through the link attached below.

Rest assured, there'll be much more to come over the summer! Go Demons!

Keep it up man.    The more Demons content on Youtube the better.

 

Yep, definitely agree with Jako. The more Demon material on YouTube, or anywhere for that matter, the better, especially considering the lack of engaging material on the club website. 

Looking forward to 7:00pm for some Jimmy highlights. There's surprisingly very few highlight packages of the man on YouTube.

Well, sure it's a good highlights tape but I hear there's a question mark on his game sense and then there's the go-home factor. :D

Brilliant effort from The Mighty Demons and I hope the praise and views motivate you to keep going.

 

I also have a secret hope that one day you can bend the rules and do Simon Godfrey's glorious day out where the only stain was that he was robbed of the three votes and only got two. (Robbo did take fifteen marks though, so I can understand the umpires error there) Round 15 under friday night lights in 2006!

Other requests would be 

- Nathan Jones' three-voter against GWS in the darkest days of 2013. Time to take a moment to remember what 'stalwart' means.

- An Aaron Davey in full flight choice, perhaps round 2, 2010

- Paul Wheatley, round 20, 2008.  Back on the theme of the role-player who has a big day out.

Ahh, this is a fun thing to do but it is much easier to come up with nominations that it is to actually make the videos! 

Great stuff The Mighty Demons!

Thanks to anyone who tuned in! The video can how be viewed as per normal on YouTube or through the link a few posts above.

Another thanks to the positive feedback from those who commented above!

Jakovich & Demon Jack: Happy to add to the growing amount of Demon content circulating the web! You can never have too much!

Little Goffy - Thanks mate! Always happy to take requests! Jonesy is already in the pipeline for the near future. It may or may not be the game you specified. 

That match against St Kilda back in '91 was absolutely amazing! So as an added treat, Allen Jakovich's eight goal haul from the same game will be available for viewing on YouTube tomorrow. I'll post the link when it's up!

Magnificent Work MD

My last visit to Linton St. What a crazy Bog it was. Soak the ground on a friday night. As a Sandringham Boy, all my mates were St. Kilda Supporters so i saw many games at Moorabbin. Beating them down there was sweet as

This is of great interest. It is a testament to drear itself that the MFC Web site is so slow with news/views, under-performing for supporters and deficient of imaginative content. Whereas the Three Votes has great memories inbuilt, a recanting of moments of supporter pride and familiarity with the past, and underpins hopes and aspirations of supporters coming into the next season. Well done.

Reads the flight of the ball unbelievably well - just an incredible talent.

Would have been the first and only Demon to kick 100 in a season if his body allowed.

The 90s.

When kicking a bag of 8 goals was so common, you don't even get the 3 votes.

What a great project.  Daniel Bell's game v Adelaide, round 10 2007 would also be appreciated when you get the chance.

And also that finals game in the 90's V Carlton.  they were leading us, around the first half,  then 'the Ox' fired up and 'led them a merry dance, all around the forward half.  Leading us to take the win.

This game was the birth of, Go "Dees" !!! ,  in the middle part of the match.

I was at this game.  Lumumba (he was Harry O'Brien back then) got injured early and Robbo went bananas.  The filth supporters thought it was going to be a walkover and we shoved it right back down their throats.  Great stuff.

 

A incredibly significant game for me and my family. This was our terminally ill mum’s last game. As four generation Demon family, we went with mum every week. On this day as we walked with her slowly through the car park after Robbo had done the business, she quietly said “that’s it boys, I’m done. That will be my last game, but what a wonderful way to finish with a win like that” (against our mortal black and white foes)! She was gone a few months later, but we will always remember this day. Go Dees!

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
