I am curious as to the age makeup of Demonlanders.  I suspect that, like our supporter base, it will skew towards the middle/top end.

Voters names will not be made public, so don't be shy!

I'm guessing DL will be more skewed than our supporter base as I doubt anyone under 40 reads/posts on DL - to their loss.

They are more likely to be on a fb or bf fan forum, if on a fan forum at all.

Well, not many have responded yet, but already 40% are under 40.

Under 40 may not age well, no pun intended - my first instinct was to say under 30.  The latter being the age group that grew up in a world with 'social media' like fb etc.

Happily fit in the 40-50 bracket except I dont ski or own a Langerover.

When I was of the age less than 40.

I did ski, regularly, and never owned a range but I have had two BMW 3,s

that was some time ago.  So I. Still might fit the profile

@Demonstoneare you preparing some brain teaser puzzles to amuse us during the bye?

There's nothing in the bank but I might be able to conjure up something if I make an effort.  No promises.  

EDIT:  I've just drafted a couple of new ones.  Stand by for the bye!  😉

Interestingly i just realized the other day that i am actually very close to my 10 year anniversary on Demonland, which is pretty incredible, means i've spent most of my adult life on here! 

Werridee couldn't possibly be older than 18, love their work though.

Only if his birthday is on a leap year!

Must we tell the absolute truth?

asking for a friend 

I lied just a little. But I figured I deserved some time off for 2012-14.

Also, my wife is in the age group I selected, and I definitely 'belong to' her. So, in an Obi Wan kind of way, it is true. From a certain point of view.

The age I feel, or actual? Also, how many years should I add for the 55 years of grief endured before 2021?
 

Oops, gave it away. D’OH!!!

The best thing fitting into the 71-80 bracket is that I have seen and been to 7 premierships inc last year as the only "seen". I consider myself f-ing lucky compared to a lot of Dee"s supporters. Fit as I am (thanks to the good folk at the Alfred/Sandy) I hope to see quite a few more.

Go Dee's.

Quite obviously you are not a “real” MFC man (and certainly not MCC) if you cannot even spell Rangerover. 🧐

Haha. Nearly fell out of my chair with your age but I totally misread your comment.

Been a long long time since I was skiing Mal pre 2000 and haven’t been 40 for a while as well. Still, when I look down my feet are above the ground.   Will be watching tonight the fire going full time, it’s cold down here! Cheers

Have to stay home as well Rob. Open wounds on face after removal of 6 melanoma's. Pain killers and vodka/red bull assisting a pleasant evening. My skiing finished around then (2000) as well.

Can I ask what the cause/s of this curiosity is?

Ed: just curious.

Just wondering, Steve.  I assumed we didn't have a lot of young posters as most of us appear to be grizzled, rusted-on longtime Demon tragics.  The poll numbers to date would support that assumption with fewer than 10% being under 30.

    Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5 The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Date of Birth:  22 July 1997 Height:  189cm Games MFC 2024:  21 Career Total: 183 Goals MFC 2024: 3 Career Total: 54 Brownlow Medal Votes 5 Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward. Date of Birth: 16 April 2003 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 41 Goals MFC 2024: 30 Career Total: 58 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    2024 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
