Today would have been a good day to go down to Centrelink if it was open.

Take heart that this will have done more damage to Essendon than good for Collingwood. A net gain for civilization.

The heart beats true
The heart beats true

At least we don’t overreact here at Demonland.

Collingwood's flag to lose.

Geelong and Melbourne only genuine threats. Don't think we have the pace or polish to beat them in the big dance unfortunately.

Ok forget Collingwood won. The bombers gave up a 28 point 3/4 time lead. 😂 I mean it annoys me there 2 ruckman didn't dominate like they did against us but there fans would be filthy. Plus Essendon have geelong next week then port so hopefully this is the start of the downward spiral

Are we still 2nd?

Essendon play Geelong, Port in Port & Brisbane in Brisbane in the next 3 weeks. We’ll see if they’re any good in a couple of weeks. 

Geelong on a short rest? They are not a chance

No chance for Clarry?

Nope - I love the bloke but Oliver can be dwarfed by others in our team. Daicos is going to be the best player in the AFL in a few years time and has the potential to be mentioned in the same breath as some of the all time greats. 

Now, if you’ll excuse me,  I’m going to wash my mouth out with concrete cleaner.

Collingwood outright premiership favourites for me.

Nick Daicos unfolding in front of our eyes is just pure greatness. 

What is even more worrisome is that they have gears. They can turn it on when they need to win games or just stay in cruise control to preserve their bodies.

    NEW CHAPTER by Meggs

    There was no setting sun to ruin the spectacle this week, just the rising moon over the brand-new empty GMHBA Stadium in Moorabool Street. It was a perfect evening for footy on a pristine surface with an enthusiastic crowd building.    Children dressed in Demon colours formed a Guard of Honour as the reigning premiers ran through the raised Demon banner declaring: MELBOURNE & GEELONG, A NEW CHAPTER IN THE OLDEST RIVALRY.     The strong travelling group of Demons

    BATTLE OF MORDOR by Meggs

    Shadows form over Middle-Earth as the two oldest football clubs in the land Melbourne and Geelong take battle for the very first time for 4-points, down at Kardinia Park (aka Mordor). If you dare, come venture down the highway and support our talented team. Melbourne’s Season Eight form line is 4 zip and we’ve been playing some scintillating footy.  The fanbase is growing.   It needs to be said that our opponents so far have hardly been top shelf: Collingwood sits 12th on the

    SISTER ACT by Meggs

    In the twilight at Frankston Oval, for the first ever match between Melbourne and Hawthorn, the Demons were clinical winning by 59 points and remain undefeated in Season Eight.   The Melbourne team ran out to a wonderful #DeeArmy banner paying tribute to Ron Barassi, ‘a football legend, the greatest Demon’.     So true!   Meggs was super excited to see Irish recruit Aimee Mackin playing her first game.  Aimee quickly showed us that she belongs out there with composure, ga

    ON SONG by Meggs

    Meggs asks is it time to heave ho the melodies and words of yesteryear and update Club theme songs with some Australian composers and singers?     What prompted this reflection was the discovery that this week’s combatants’ themes were written by the same early 20th century American composer, George M. Cohan.     Cohan’s melodies The Yankee Doodle Boy and You’re a Grand Old Flag have been used by Hawthorn since 1956 and Melbourne since 1912.   Even earlier, the clu

    RUN UNBEATEN by Meggs

    The Demons withstood a spirited challenge from the Western Bulldogs in the 10th anniversary of the Hampson-Hardeman Cup to run away with it in the last quarter and take their unbeaten run to 12 wins on the trot, an AFLW record.   The Doggies were tenacious and their losing score of 6.5.41 was the highest score against Melbourne since their last loss against Brisbane in Round 4 on 18 September 2022.   With the sad passing of AFL football legend Ronald Dale Barassi, champion player

    LEARNINGS OR BURNINGS by GOTO

    Well, the 2023 season is over for the Demons after a two point loss to the Blues in the First Semi Final. All season WE have been hearing about the “learnings” that the team needed to make after each loss, but how much have we actually learnt when they:   1. Lost four successive finals at our own home ground;   2. Fell in five of their last six losses despite having more shots at goal and in the sixth, they had an equal number of shots;   3. Lost seven games by under two
