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.

    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

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    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
