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 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.

    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.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
