Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all Demonlanders. 

It’s been a tough year for our beloved club. Let’s hope we can bounce back in 2020. 

I want to thank our Mods @Nasher, @Whispering_Jack, @Grapeviney, @george_on_the_outer. They go above and beyond in their tireless work of keeping the forum civil and a friendly, inviting and inclusive place. Things can get heated in here especially in the tough times and the mods do a great job of keeping the peace. 

 Thanks to my Podcast cohosts @Grapeviney, @Supermercado & @george_on_the_outer. It’s a tough job having to front up week in week out when you only win 5 games so thank you guys for not bailing on me. 

 A big big thank you to our regular preseason trackwatchers @kev martin, @Baghdad Bob, @Satyriconhome, @DeeSpencer & anyone else who I’ve missed out. This year you guys have raised the bar and I look forward to your reports in the New Year. A million thank yous.

 And lastly but certainly not least thank you to all of you who make up this wonderful community. This forum is nothing without its contributors. Hopefully 2020 brings us that elusive Premiership so that we can all bitch about the cup not being shiny enough together. 

 Bring on 2020. ???

 

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all.

It's the generally good natured banter on Demonland that helps get us through seasons like this.

Nothing like a good argument or difference of opinion.

Also nothing like some of the really informative stuff we get to share such as the training reports and well founded rumours (scoops).

Thanks to the crew for making it all happen & thanks to the majority of posters for making it an enjoyable experience.

Have a safe and merry christmas demonlanders, enjoy the festivities.

May all our christmas wishes come true in 2020.

Go the Dees??

Merry Christmas Demonlanders. I’d like to apologise for anything stupid I’ve said and all the other stupid things I’m bound to say over the forthcoming season. 
 

As a long-game Christmas gift to you all, I have decided that if we don’t win the flag in 2020, I will super-glue myself to the statue of Norm Smith outside the G, and simultaneously hold a hunger strike until all the other teams acquiesce into just letting us win 2021’s flag. 
 

This is something Darren Burgess hasn’t thought about,  and I feel it’s the missing link in our plan.

ScoMo went for a little break while the country burned. Who cares, Kev bolted while Dees preseason was in full swing. Unforgiveable.

Only joking Kev, you're an absolute legend. I could never put into words what your preseason reports have meant to me during a tough time in my life. I truly appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. Have a great Christmas.

Thanks for that, it reminded me to break out the Kevin Bloody Wilson song today.

Not for the more "sensitive" members here. Please take note of the warning

 

A huge thank you to Andy and all others who make Demonland such a wonderful place for us to meet and share our woes, disappointments, hopes, dreams and occasional joys.  As an 'interstater', remote from the Melbourne media, I honestly don't know where !'d be without a healthy serve of Demonland to go with my Weet Bix and muesli 365 days a year.  Hope Santa was generous with red and blue gifts for everyone, and that 2020 brings something very special, even if we do have to wait until September!

Merry Christmas one and all. Hope everyone’s noose, uh, membership scarf, arrived in time for the festive season.

Merry Christmas and a happy and SUCCESSFUL new footy season to all.

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year Demonlanders.

A disappointing year on field, but always nice to have this place to vent, dissect and hope. 

Appreciate everyone's banter and insight, enjoy the season and look after yourselves.


Merry Christmas all. I really enjoy this site and the banter amongst the posters. 

Thanks to the mods. 

Merry Christmas Demonlanders.

Many thanks to all involved in running this forum.

May the boys create heaps of magic on the field in 2020. Go Dees!

All the best to all at Demonland! Mods, what an outstanding forum and fan site.. thanks!

To all Posters, whether I agree or not, Thanks for providing a really interesting conversation and banter and occasionally heated discusiion!

It is the PASSION, that we share and although we do have differences at least we are united in one thing,

A LONG OVERDUE FLAG!

So I send this All the best!

" Try not too stay too static or cute.

Premierships won long ago memory can decay and become like brown Squashy Fruit,

Change, is the seed to personal growth and a footy club so passionate, that it demands perfection and swear on the Grand old Flag Oath!

And submit to the Challenges that aspire to greatness, all that we seem,

Follow the Blueprint, those in command, and there stands before us The Premiership Dream!"

Happy new year everyone.

One year closer to our next flag.....................................................................

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
