Thank you Demonland and all posters I am addicted and enjoy reading through most threads there is so much footy knowledge and information on this great site that I no longer buy a newspaper as the info on this site is more reliable less sensationalised and gets down to the grass roots level, that I enjoy and this type of knowledge, insights and information just isn’t available on commercial press. Also a big call out to DD, LH and DC I closely follow stats, list management and membership status and you all do such a great job.❤️💙💕

Things are still very raw and I thought about waiting a bit but there's no time like the present. When you truly love something, you need to love it when things are at their worst as well. Demonl

I think a little reminder is in order… Thank you, mods. Thank you for the many, many hours you put into this site whilst juggling full-time jobs, families and interests other than footy. Tha

I don’t accept that. The stats don’t say that. We lost both those finals, much more than we were beaten. That’s what makes it so frustrating.

Big shout out to @WheeloRatings as well. That data is absolute gold and in most cases none of us can access normally even if we wanted to pay for it.

I'll second that.  Vn addition that digs deep

Shouldn't that be bending over forward for you? I'm so going to cop it from WCW for this.

Maybe he saw you on the big screen at the match, like we all did?

I hoped nobody noticed that. Apparently if you wear devil horns out there you’re fair game. I discovered this after the event. 😩

Hang on a minute! I never saw this. When in the game did this occur?

Right??? And that cameraman simply wouldn’t go away. I asked him nicely to not film me but that only made him more determined. I should’ve learned my lesson earlier in the year when I hugged Checker (our mascot) and that same cameraman almost tripped over himself to get close enough to film it. 😑

It never happened! I was never on the big screen for an inordinate length of time, likely singing and dancing like an eejit.

Incidentally, we’re never allowed to leave our bay and we have to continue chanting and cheering and waving giant heads even when a loss is inevitable. My problem is that I cry at every loss. So, I’ve been granted special permission to hide from the cameras after a loss lest I become a meme. It’s happened to a couple of our members and they warned me that it’s never lived down. And so, THBT, you can stick your gif idea where the sun don’t shine. k? K.

Very smart to hide, WCW!  My friend from work made a gif of me shaking my head in disappointment at one of our losses and it's now become a meme amongst my friends and at work 🥲

I always remember the poor bloke after the Essendon loss in 2013. I still see him quite often at games.

That’s Duxy. He has rued that vision since the day it was filmed.

And this young bloke is a good friend of mine who was captured crying tears of joy after a win and has been a meme for years. The Front Bar has tried several times to get him on the show but he’s not having a bar of it. And I don’t blame him.

Duxy shouldn't be ashamed of that vision. It spoke volumes and was what we were all feeling at the time.

Well, he says he doesn’t like it but I’m a bit suss about that because he loves the camera nowadays. Never shies away from a camera does our Duxy.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
