Well its Nine Zip.

Hard fo fathom as well as the fact that last time we were this good we won....do I dare say it...f....

I cant finish it. Its beyond comprehension.

As annoying as Bt was commentating , he was interviewing Dees supporters about their fears and new confidence. It was great to see some older supporters talk about the wait.

Ive never seen Dland so happy. Sure theres the usual backhanded comment or doubting of someones footy iq or rediculous changes but on the whole at nine zero we are a happy bunch.

So many likes and loves you can tell we are on an upward path.

Long may it continue.

Ill say it...a flag? Take that Bt.

my spleen is enlarged - i haven't been able to vent it for some time.

That' the problem with omitting Jake Melksham.

I'm really looking forward to the next three weeks. Get over Adelaide then back to back against the other two form teams of the competition.

Bring it on.

What a wonderful resource we have in Demonland!

I've been a Life Member ever since membership categories were introduced, and each season I try to toss in a few extra bucks to say thanks to Andy and the crew, who contribute their time, energy and 'hard-earned' to provide an outstanding service for us long suffering Demons fans.  

Given that I'm in such a good frame of mind about 9 zip, I hereby pledge to make an additional donation if we make it to 10 zip.

ps I hope this post isn't out of line Andy / Mods.  If it is, please delete.  My donation will be forthcoming regardless.

Can honestly say I've never been so relaxed watching us play.
Trusting the game plan and commitment of the players to get it done.
But come finals time I'll be a forkin' mental case.

Dunno about anyone else but i fill full of apprehension watching us play I can't bear to see us loose a game just thinking about how we will respond the following week, I almost want it over with?. At the same time I'm loving it and hoping we go undefeated all season including finals......

Same here. Such a weird feeling not stressing over what could go wrong.

Demonland is awesome! My only regret is that I only learned of its existence four weeks ago. I really, really could’ve done with it last year. In early March a three-week visit to Warsaw blew out to seven months thanks to covid. All I had was a 6-min highlights video on YouTube after each match, which I only watched if we’d won. The first (and only) match I watched in it’s entirety was the grannie, and that was on Day 11 of hotel quarantine in Adelaide. Oh, how I could’ve done with Demonland last year. ❤️?

When (if) we do lose a game:

If we lose to a bottom team - Drinking bathwater.

If we lose to a top team - Not ready for the pressure of big games.

If we lose to a middle team - Never as good as our wins made us look and really the middle is where we belong.

Similar commentary will align with it being a big loss, small loss or middle loss.

The only realistic option is to not lose again.  Ever.

The last 2 weeks are the calmest I think I’ve ever been watching Melbourne play. I just had faith we would get on top and get the job done, and even if we didn’t, it wouldn’t be the end of the world.

I’m usually an absolute nut case when I watch Melbourne. It has bought out the best and worst of me at times over the years.

    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

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

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
