I for one haven’t moved on. 
Not planning to any time soon.

Totally with you WCW. The MFC supporters won’t be moving on for a few weeks/months yet.

As for everyone else, they can all they like, I don’t really care. Now is the time to be drinking in all the premiership glory and turn our attentions to 2022 in 2022. Still got 3 months of celebrating to go!

Not for me, it’s ground hog day here. Just turned the tv on and on Fox Footy Grand Final replay 11.10 to go in the third qtr. I think I might watch it.

They have to follow the media cycle - 17 other clubs hoping to win the off season (like we used to). I just have to flick on a replay (today I watched the r23 minor premiers game again) to bring me back to my happy place.  The trade and draft pundits can wet the bed as much as they like, they can NEVER take this away from me.

I am happy to move on (to #14 in 22) anytime.

What is trade period?  Let’s just ignore it. I’ve had too many years of hanging out for salvation.  

Premiership Enlightenment is here and we can enjoy it. 

Let the miserable pies and blues and Hawks and Roos and Saints and tigers and the others fight for scraps of footy stories and interest!!!

Every time we play next season our win will be discussed, we are now the benchmark. Even in games we’re not playing in, other teams will be compared to us.

Ya, even 93 down we can peel off a quick ton

I recall a similar feeling of desolation after the 1964 flag. In those days, it was the Age, the Sun and the Herald and World of Sport. I think there was a photo of John Lord in the following Tuesday's Herald, and not much else.

This is one of the reasons why I became a lifetime subscriber to Demonland after the weekend. I have waited a lifetime to enjoy this, so I’ll come here and do it!

Support the Demonland folks and get on board. Literally all of my favourite supporter moments of our premiership year have been on here. 

You’ve echoed my sentiments exactly, THBT! It hasn’t even been a week yet. My fam and friends will probs only humour me for a little while longer but eventually they’ll kinda forget about it. But on Demonland, it’s always gonna be welcome subject matter. 
PS: I truly hope your little nephew enjoyed the win. 💕

And the 2022 season starts from scratch. Irrespective of 2021, it all starts a fresh with all clubs equal. And yep, the Dees will be a scalp that the enemy will be seeking.

It's so hard to believe its nearly been a week and I am definitely not ready to move on. Not interested in trades, not even interested in other sports that I'm passionately into. Heck, I'm not even interested in talking to friends that don't have an interest in Melbourne right now haha. 

Trade talk should have a moratorium for a week after the grand final. In fact it should never be talked about again.

We seem to be disinterested in trades as a unit.

I was surprised by the retention of Brown , Daw and Weed but giants do not grow on trees.

Beanstalks perhaps.

Very good move Biff at least for 2022.  They have value. Pleased they are on board. But we need to have the twos playing a full season.

He loved the win, but will love it even more when all the ridiculous premiership merchandise we got him and his brother turns up. 10 year olds like cheeseboards right? 🤣

The most important 17 minutes in the club's history as BT described it.

Watched it twice today. Watch kossie. He tackles weightman and forces turnover to Bowey who kicks to Brayshaw. Then shepherds doggies no.5 to protect Trac when kicking his goal from the pocket.

Only multiple viewing helps pick out these little gems.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
