“Winning” is the new drug

Melbourne winning games is a like a drug. 

I think we’ve all felt that feeling after a win, that euphoria, the feeling that the Dees are unbeatable and craving for more - it becomes addictive. 

Many of us hunt articles about the win, reading every word as though it’s our last and when there’s nothing left to read we are desperate for more.

Hopefully my new little project can help save you - but be warned, it’s as addictive as Demonland.

    Thanks @DeesignerAU, I've bookmarked your site.

    Re "the feeling that the Dees are unbeatable"...that's some bad-[censored] reaction you're experiencing  there!

    A very good friend of mine set this up. In many cases it can locate an article within 15 minutes of it being uploaded and it's where I first read the latest about our new training facility next to AAMI Park. If you only want to read / watch / listen to Dees related content and not the hoi polloi sitting under us on the ladder then it's a great reference point.

    Love it.

    Some first impressions feedback:

    • On the smartphone app the MFC news comes first. Personally i would put all the aggregated 'other' news (eg age/HUN articles about the dees) first and MFC stuff last
    • Why? becuase i would go the MFC website for all that stuff (and their videos, podcast etc etc) ie it is already aggregated (and can pop it on autoplay) - which i can't do obviously for news from multiple media outlets  
    • In fact i would consider not having any official MFC stuff on there as there is heaps and it is distracts from all the other stuff (and from a club perspective they may prefer not to lose traffic to their site?)
    • the videos i would like aggregated in one spot is the YouTube channels that have bespoke edits of games, shows, clips etc etc. Lace out is an excellent example
    • I might of missed it, but if not, i would absolutely put up a link to the Dees bible - Demonwiki

    Great job, Deesigner. 👏 I’ll spend hours on this site.

    I hope there will be plenty of content in the off season too.

    I think its great, maybe too great? Will it take traffic away from Demonland and thus advertising dollars which help keep the site afloat? I realise there are links to Demonland so you can also argue the reverse i guess.

    Im not really sure how these things work?

    Great work.

    Well done, a nice concise site. Perhaps linking in Mongrel Punt and Stats Insiders stuff on The Dees would be good as well.

    Thanks for the support and feedback so far.

    I've added some new content sources, re-arranged the feeds on the front page (less focus on the more popular content) and added some custom content (edited versions of the original video without the content from the other teams/games).

    If you see something you think I should include, shoot it through. Thanks

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
