I may as well be. 

 

Anyways, you didn’t answer my questions. 

I have been a Demon since 1969

An MCC Member since 1992

MFC Member since 2000

I told you of serious problems last year, which you chose not to believe 

I am waiting to see change inside the walls of The MFC

 

I think if we had our 2023 form in this year we would have smoked the comp outside of Sydney. 
Unfortunately we have had the year from hell and still somehow almost made finals and lost so many close games.
Really only 3-4 games were not acceptable.  The extra month off will do us good, get everyone healthy and well rested. 
We bounce back next year and make top 4.

“… we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, We shall never surrender

This is how I read every post of yours. Not everything you say needs to sound so profound. Geez Louise, relax a little, bro. 😅

I don’t know why you have to (yet again) remind everyone of how long you’ve held memberships. Do you feel this gives your opinions more credence? 

 

Here's what the numbers tell us (so far)

Optimists 52.63% (1-3 years)

Pessimists 39.47% (7-10+ years)

Realists 7.90% (4-5 years) 

That's about the usual type ratio on Demonland

The Pessimists vs the Optimists with the realists rarely heard from

My guess is 3 to 5 years

Is that you Maysie?


After some Deep Thought 4 to 2 years.

The club is run well these days. 100% better than 10 years ago

I don't think we'll have to wait another 6 decades

I'm confident we can win one in the next 15-20 years but it's impossible to say at what point

In space, no one can hear you cheer.

Life on Earth is expected to die in 1.3 billion years. Better win one before then.

If you are referring to the collision with Andromeda, that's about 5B. years.

I think the balance of the list is off and would expect a pretty steady decline from May/Gawn/Viney.

Guess I am a pessimist

Can I change my vote ?

getting very disillusioned

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • PREGAME: Carlton

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
