Sir Why You Little:     This is what a typical Demonland thread looks like.

Lord Nev:     No it's not.  I'm sorry SWYL, but you've got it all wrong.

binman:     I'd like to add a brief comment but we all know that's not bloody likely.

old dee:     This thread will never be any good.  It's doomed to fail dismally.

picket fence:     Sheeeit!!!!!  I'm more EXCITED about this thread than BIG KEV could ever be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Jaded No More:     I (censored) hate Geelong and this thread is almost as bad.

Clintosaurus:     The umpires will influence this thread.  It's the narrative that the AFL and media want.

Lucifers Hero:     Can the thread title be changed to "What They Are Saying At Brunton Avenue"?

daisycutter:     i don't see how capital letters could possibly improve this thread.

Ethan Tremblay:     This thread has sewn up a trade coup for MFC.  Make of that what you will.

Bitter but optimistic:     Has anybody "maid" a double entendre yet?

WalkingCivilWar:     Have some "manors" Uncle Bitters.  Soz, but Ima say it anyways.

faultydet:     Sigh.  This is just more woke virtue signalling.

rpfc:     I've nothing to say but here's a GIF for you.

Cranky Franky:     I object to everybody and everything in this stupid thread.

dazzledavey36:     I've been watching this thread since its junior days and knew it would make the top level.

willmoy:     This is a biased thread because of the maggots.

adonski:     This thread would be far better if Jacob van Rooyen was in it.

Demonstone:     Oh dear.  This thread is riddled with spelling mistakes and grammatical errors.

WERRIDEE:     I've made up a possible team using the names of all the posters in this thread.

Engorged Onion:     This thread is loaded.  Or is it?

joeboy:     Worst thread ever.

Demonland:     This thread is now closed.  Take it to the "Changes For Next Thread" please.

    This thread is going nowhere until we get a permanent home base in the MCG precinct

    I'm happy (I think) that my new "persona" has avoided Demonstone's jaundiced eye. Although, I thought I might warrant an honourable mention for a propensity to use brackets, inverted commas and other grammatical conventions.

    Sorry @Demonstone but you're completely wrong and here's some stats that actually could mean anything but I choose to interpret them in a confirmation bias way to start an argument that will never end...

    I actually believe that this thread was done 8 or so years ago. However, names like Saty, Biffen, Stuie, Range Rover, deeluded, Ben Hur and so forth got a guernsey back then.

    I thought about putting (at) tags on those names to see if they still lurk around these parts, but I found more than one or two no longer exist on here. The times they are a changing!

    In defense of @daisycutter, his encounters with Deeluded over the years may have broken his brain.

    Whe|\| u re@d p0s+s +|-|@+ dis(@r|) the rools of NORMAL grammar, reG|ster & c0|_locatioN, you tend to become deeply traumatized and just take the option of least resistance by going with lowercase all the time.

    Yeah, it was ‘is the sky blue?’ Type thing IIRC.

    I'm pretty sure Peter Bell was waiting for this thread so he could take both it and Jackson at the same time in return for a second rounder.

    Enjoyable thread and enjoyable characters involved, would have given 2 laughing emojis if possible

    I’m offended I wasn’t included swearing pessimistically and expressing my hatred for the pathetic Doggies scum of a football club 🤣

    Deeluded's rants about the Northern Stand & the would-be hub in Elwood were priceless

    Every day for close on 10 years.  Multiple posts per day as well on both non-talking points.  Stickability skills to the fore

    And how about Rhino & Bub? ... the use of the like-type function only for those 2 now

    If you had read his far superior thread summing up all of the various posters on Demonland, there would be no need to explain this to you, chap. After all, he has spoken to all of them and is completely tight with them by taking guns photos and talking about the English Premier League. 

    When he has time to get away from his lovely lady, he may grace Demonland again. But given the level of pessimism and hair shirt threads, that's unlikely. It's just a game after all and to get that angry about it, you must be leading a very sad and lonely life. :pj:

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
