Who are you kidding, people? You are all a 5 goal loss away from bloodletting about playing too many kids, or about our NQR players that ‘aren’t good enough for a flag winning team,’ or about the whipping boys of the past, present and future being the reason you sulk on the way to work...

I’m overreacting sure but this board is insufferable this week - just as it will be after our next bad loss...

SATY is that you? ?

Please stop talking about us, just pretend we dont exist!

Give us more.

MFC are great at being open to the media. Encourage them, I enjoy it, 

Gone are the days of hoping for an elaborate write up in the newspaper,  or a game review on tv following our Sunday time slots.

Most media exposè, is motivational to players, the positive or the negative, can be spun by the coaches. 

Fluff prices I'm not sure, so easy just to ignore.

The bathwater stuff though is the problem. I hope Toges are drinking it morning, night, and day.

I much prefer the overly positive and 'dreamer' like position than the weeks after a loss. Can we keep this up for a little while longer? :P Winning is fun.

The first five  minutes of this show on the AFL website is a great watch. It emphasises with all Demon supporters. Perhaps someone smarter than me could put up the link for everyone to enjoy.

Later on in the show they have a restrained go at Jeff Kennet's ludicrous claim that not to allow Hawthorn an AFLW team next season is discrimination of the worst kind......Really!!!!

Being dreamimg for almost half a century.

One day it must come true.

Perhaps just maybe it might be a day this year.

Yea...I believe its coming and boy how much we will love our flag when it does.

I don't often participate in these sort of discussion but really what's the point in being a footy supporter if you don't let yourself enjoy the good times?  And as a club we have to maximise the commercial advantages and being in the press is a large part of that.

We'll lose games this season and it will be disappointing.  That's footy.  But we are genuine participants this year, that's great.

If for some mad reason the doggies happened to drop to GWS on Friday and we smashed the Tigres..(by a lot)......Then it would be the first time ever in Nathan Jones career that he finished a home and away round with Melbourne on top of the ladder.

But the lead news article would be Tigers fail to honour Dusty milestone with a win.

What rpfc said may be a bit harsh, but there is more than a small element of truth to it.

All good HT.  That post had eerily similar tones to it.  Probably just a coincidence.  Maybe they are buddies.

I guess we should bring out the old adage "Thats what we stand for". Nothing would give me the tom t1ts more than hearing Tony Shaw, Danny Frawley, Mark McClure or some other low IQ loud mouth searching for another insulting question about our club, by asking what we stand for?

What does any club stand for?

There’s a mocker on us right there. Cheers.

I think the media give us a pretty fair run when we are successful just as the bag us when we are not. This week we have been constantly in the news, with most commentators nominating the ANZAC eve game as the most significant of the season so far: and so it is! 
 

Enjoy the limelight - there will be plenty more ahead.

Just a consequence of his original “smart [censored]” decision not to support AFLW originally. He deserves everything he gets for being such a laggard.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
