I love your honesty there! 😂

I just make the site pretty, wrangle content and attempt to get people to play nice. Nasher keeps the hamsters running on the wheel.

Since we are all locked away, and can't go out to spend money, might as well send it to Demonland to keep it going.  $200 on the way.

Very generous George. 

I just want to thank those that are generous but also fully understand that a lot of people are doing it very tough so only give if you can.

Oh, was Demonland down for what felt like an eternity? I never noticed. It’s not like I spend an inordinate amount of time here.

Pleased you've joined up. But I'm amused by the post which says "I never post" just above the counter that says you've made 3 posts. Don't be shy. Keep on posting.

Luckily the crash occurred when the Olympics were on! If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound?

Good work for getting us back on Nasher and Andy.

A million thanks folks.  As an ‘inter-stater’, Demonland is my lifeline to the world of the mighty Demons. I couldn’t live without it!

You are in the majority. Most Demonland users are in fact readers. Some people just like to read the temperature of the room. Nothing wrong with that at all.

Thanks for your generous contribution.

Just curious. Do you have many readers only that are members or contribute $ in another way?

Thanks for all your efforts

Yep. This one put my skills to the test. I've seen database corruption before but never to the point where the database engine won't run at all. Very happy I got it all back online with no loss of data - wasn't feeling very optimistic about it when I went to bed at 3am!

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Re: what @Deeoldfartsaid - I'm an interstate member too whose lifeline to the MFC is this site. I'd be lost without it.

    TRAINING: Monday 17th February 2025

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
