Nicely done, and appreciate the work you've put in.

However, if you haven't already, I'd look into Digital Accessibility, and in particular, the WCAG guidelines. For me, the site is still much too busy, with too much (visual) information.

e.g., we have access to Training Reports on the left, but then again via a link at the bottom of each page. Same for the podcast which appears not just on the left, but at the bottom of the page and again on the right. Once would be enough and would be both more efficient and help make the site more accessible.

My 2c, and yes, I've done some work in this area, as many many people are being excluded from participating fully in on-line content and culture.

    Not a fan of PayPal that's all. I'll check for other options. I didn't check if I could donate re c card. I think I can buy a subscription so there's that.

    When it gets colder some merch like a hoodie perhaps . Not befitting for my age but that's the point. At a certain age a man starts to wear anything he wants to wear and no mercy for the fool who tries to tell him otherwise.

    You can pay with card as a pay pal guest. I don't like using a PayPal account either.

    Thank you to all. That goal has been running for a few years now. I’ll reset it soon. I’ve put a lot of work and money into this website over the years.

    A big thank you must also go to @Nasher and our team of mods @george_on_the_outer @Grapeviney and @Whispering_Jack

    Nice try my WA friend.

    How's the old back going?

    You mentioned it many moons ago. I sympathasie because I've had a fusion at c5 / c6 that didn't resolve the pain . It just stuffed up my laryngeal nerves which messed up ones vocal chords. Sometimes when I talk I sound like that scientist in the Simpsons 😂

    And another much lower down that helped but pits pressure upon the other discs thereby speeding up their demise. Bloody quacks.

    Anyway the cash is on its way. ...when win three flags in row. In fact I'll shout every suffering soul here a steak dinner.

    Ooo the notification bar and menu has moved to the bottom of the screen on Android. Threw me for a loop but think I'll prefer it going forward!

    So far reaction from my colleagues involved *blink* and "oh congrats! Also can we discuss about that client email"

    Me too. But the wife buying a different brand of tea bags puts me off balance for a couple of weeks. It doesn't take much for this codger to be spun around. Especially with technology. Forget the books for dummies series. I suggest books for old fellas. I suppose they are interchangeable.

    What was I talking about oh....... Is Fritta playing this weekend? Is Milkshake back in and for whom?

    Like the time I tried an onion to my belt. Give me two dimes for a ....

    yeah I agree as i noticed the repetition as well and the impact that the left menu has on compressing the screen BUT

    What a great site this is and what a great job you guys do.

    Im an old fogey as well and just had seamless uptake on the PC I use for Dland. I only use PC and try not to mess with alternative s and dont insert links etc so wont be testing.

    Thank you, thank you ,thank you.

    Take a look at the top of the page in each thread. This is the only third part app that I could find that recreates what used to come as part of the software.

    That is really neat! Thanks.

    Need to raise an issue.

    The sequence of reaction emojis has changed.

    I almost gave ghostwriter a vomit and Werridee anything other than a vomit. I don't know who of them would have been more confused and troubled by this, but there needs to be some kind of AI-driven warning system to prevent further accidents.

    Also, just a suggestion, but can we have an automatic switch-off for the auto-censor system one word before an after any mention of Maynard? I feel like authenticity is being stifled.

    More seriously, I've had a few opportunities (NSW Transport is in league with social media) to wander around on Demonland on my mobile and it really is a very good setup now. Not saying it was poor before, but it is noticably good now. In fact, the other day I was visiting a couple of Carlton forums just to see how much they were going into meltdown about Voss relative to our centripetal volcano about Goodwin, and, wow, Demonland really is a whole other world.

    I didn't realise we had it so good. Kudos to the team!

    I promise if I ever again have any money, I'll sling some towards the site admin.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
