Contributing this largely wrongful post is not helping MFC at all.

Many reading this drivel will for rightly or wrongfully believe some or all of it and believe it is true. We criticise journalists for inaccurate and misleading statements about our Club yet seem oblivious to this sort of post that is not even funny enough but deals with the truth and fiction all in one. 

It is a waste of time and should be not approved for publication. 

Fixed

DEMONLAND IN CHAOS: 58er Sounds Alarm on Satire Slip-Ups

Suburban Melbourne, Australia - In a shocking turn of events, longtime Demonland poster and self-appointed tone police, "58er", has come forward with grave concerns that some readers of the site may be unable to distinguish satire from serious commentary.

Sources close to the matter have revealed that 58er's crusade against misinterpreted satire began after a fellow poster jokingly suggested that the Melbourne Demons' lackluster performance on the field was due to their secret love of knitting.

"I was horrified," 58er said in an exclusive interview. "I mean, who wouldn't know that was a joke? But then I started thinking, what if there are others out there who take everything at face value?"

58er's concerns have been met with skepticism by some, who point out that the Demonland community has a long history of embracing satire and humor.

However, 58er remains resolute in his mission to protect the site's readers from themselves. "I'm not trying to be the fun police," he insists. "I just want to make sure that everyone understands what's real and what's not."

In related news, fellow Demonland poster "cranky franky" has come out in support of 58er's crusade. "I'm sick of people not posting seriously," cranky franky said. "I mean, I'm a very serious person with very serious opinions. And I won't let anyone undermine that with their 'jokes' and their 'humor'."

The Demonland community remains divided on the issue, with some calling for 58er to "lighten up" and others praising his commitment to seriousness.

In the meantime, 58er has announced plans to launch a new website, "Satire-Free Demonzone", where readers can enjoy humor-free discussion and analysis of all things AFL.

The problem I have with these posts Ethan is not that they aren't funny - they are very funny - but that they don't work as satire.

Sadly, they are way too well written to work as satire of AFL journalism circa 2025.

Spelling check....its "drivel" not "dribble". 

Dribble is what you do with a basketball.

Or what Collingwood supporters do out of the corner of their mouths. 

Not usually one to comment on what people wear... You ripper Goody, that shirt is is a cracker, beach boys from the 60s style.  Sloop John B... 

Auction it Goody at the next B&F

I’d love to be there on Thursday but I won’t be. It’s just too far to travel on PT. It takes forever as it is, but with replacement buses on my line factored in I’d have to leave home at 6:30am. All that time and effort just to stand behind locked gates? Yeah, that’s a big ol’ bunch o’ NOPE right there.

But if I was going to be there I’d defs expect you to be brandishing the knackered Gunn & Moore, no bandana nor a panama, rather, a sombrero coz 😂😂😂

Besides, I shouldn’t have to spot you, you’ve seen me so the onus would be on you to find me. Remember you said you saw WCW at Gosch’s “surrounded by her acolytes”? Well I was there, so you have seen me already. 🙃

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
