Only joined recently after reading DL content and listening to DL podcasts for many years. Also have posted on BigFooty  for years. Finally joined because:

1. I think the standard of the Pod is first class and offers the best analysis going around.

2. The DL forum discussion is deeper and much more varied and informative than on BF.

All in all thank you Andy and all involved. I spend far too much time on here.

This site is part of the fabric of society!!

I mean, with all that this club has been through since it began. For it to have survived is a credit to all involved. 
It should be heritage listed.

I remember years ago on SEN late at night, there was a discussion on club supporter websites and Demonland was way out in front. 
It is also a great companion when traveling as long as WiFi is connected!!

Let’s all go back to back

and no bagging players on the Gameday Threads!!

I once had a tradesman over at my place who also must have seen some Demon's paraphernalia and asked if I go for the Demons. We had about the Demons for about 20 mins and he told me that I must go to Demonland to read about the Demons.

True Story.

I’m thinking we all want to read the next bit of that story. The bit where you reply to him -  “funny you should say that, cos…….”, and what comes after.

So many club forums have come and gone over the years across all clubs. It really is amazing how long DL has stood the test of time.

Many of us have had bursts of posting often and periods of not being on here at all. I went through some very long periods where I would just come on here and read what other people were saying but the fact is it's always been there for us. I don't go on Facebook groups for MFC discussion, this is the only place for me.

Me mate says to me,

  • did you read x, y and zed in the paper?
  • what do you think about Dermie's rant,
  • Lloyd recons . . .
  • Darcy this, that and the other,
  • etc, etc, etc . . . . .

I say, was it on Demonland? If it's not on 'Land, I really don't care. It's the only source I trust.

Thanks Andy and all.

This.

Mike Gibson once said the following:

"The average person's not interested in front-page political stories. For the average bloke, Canberra is a cold, horrible place he went to once. He's not interested in Canberra, but Parramatta - he might be interested in what's going on there."

That's how I feel about DL and the Herald Sun is a cold place.

The majority of the users of this site are readers and not posters/people who have signed up an account.

You guys are actually in the minority by a considerable margin.

I said I'd never heard of it.

And then I told him I was just joking and that I started it. It's actually a little bit embarrassing but he was then treating me like I was a celebrity. I had to leave but my wife told me that for the rest of the day he kept saying that he couldn't believe he was in Demonland HQ. He still charged me though so there's that. So much for being a celebrity if there are no perks.

Perfect. ‘Celebrity’ fully deserved. We know he reads Demonland, do we assume he posts? Reveal yourself Mr Celebrity-anointing tradie I say!

    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.

    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.
