Another season’s done and dusted and we at Demonland would like to thank all of you our contributors for your participation in this difficult year for the Melbourne Football Club.

In particularly, I would like to thank Nasher for keeping the site together and to our feature writers George on the Outer, Whispering Jack, The Oracle and all of our other contributors for keeping Demonland going throughout season 2020.

Also a big thank you to Whispering Jack, grapeviney and George on their tireless and often thankless efforts as Moderators.

And now, we look forward to the future. Bring on 2021!

 
 

Thanks to all at Demonland, adds to my enjoyment of following the Demons! 
Not necessarily good for my sanity!

But a side benefit is Following the Demons does build resilience!

Thank you to you Demonland and alll the team and all the posters (insightful & insightless).

Here's to a better 2021 (on and off the field).


I return the thanks tenfold.  As an 'interstater', Demonland is my football 'lifeblood'.

Thank you Demonland for running such a great site. Also thank you to all the contributors for their great contribution to this great site.

Let's hope that 2021 is a great year for the Demons

Thanks also to hosts Andy and George and regular ‘caller’ binman for bringing us the demonland postcast each week. Keep us overseas folk feeling connected, especially this year when I couldn’t even fly across the Tasman. 

 

Thanks to all of you that hold this together.. and try to stop us tearing each other apart lol. With covid it’s been an especially important source of distraction.  gratitude.

Thank you without this site I am confident I would have tossed in the MFC towel some time ago.

Sorry to be negative but can we slow up the period between now and season 2021?

I am not yet able to contemplate another year as an irrelevant team.

Imagine what it would have been like if we had made eighth place?

I was tempted to say could it have been worse? however I quickly realised the answer was Yes and the memory is fairly fresh.

Felt like we ALL were this year, Doffa!

Pile my thanks on to all the others, Demonland Elves?

 

 


Thank you to all at demonland for helping us during this these trying times. you do amazing work and we are very greatful for all that you done in 2020?

Massive thanks to DL and the folks who run this site. This year more than ever it was a great and much needed distraction. 
 

Thanks Demonland. No year like it and DL rose to the occasion. Thanks to all the contributors and posters And to Andy, George and Binman for giving us great match analysis on the podcast. All the best to everyone and stay safe.

Thanks guys, brilliant.

Glad I don't have to rely on Facebook for my thoughtful MFC reading and discussion.

I'm confident we'll bounce back stronger next year and 2021 will be a bit of a ride too.

2020 isn’t over yet

Thanks to all involved 

 


My thanks are extended to the Administrators and the Moderators (even though an occasional pithy witticism of mine gets scrubbed).

I like that it's about 90% football with the other 10% varying from pop culture to nostalgia and from history through to literature, linguistics and logic. 

I've really missed the track reports and hope we can get the opportunity to have them back next year.

And, finally, many thanks to the posters who keep me informed, educated and entertained.

Thanks Demonland and co  you guys do an awesome job behind the scenes.

Demonland. A true refuge from the perils of MFCSS.

 

You’re all welcome.

I know how much I mean to you all and I never forget how important I am.

Thank you Demonland from me but not my employer.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
