Hey all,

We're just wanting to gather a little information as to how you came across this website. If you could please vote in the above poll, and perhaps give us a little explanation.

I discovered Demonology after they got a mention on the Footy Show in 2003 and heard about Demonland through that site shortly after. Since then I've been an active member of both sites. I've considered Demonland to be "home" ever since I set up the new forum in late '05 and became part of the team after hearing the lads were unhappy with their existing setup.

Edit: As an extension, I've also added another couple of questions to gauge some of our demographics. Cheers.

Edit2: If you voted in the poll before I added the extra options but want to vote in the gender and age polls, send me a PM with your age and gender and I'll add the votes in manually.

 

Well to be completely honest, I dont remember. I think I was searching for some info on the club and Demonland came up.

So the little spiders were doing their job :-)

I voted: Another footy site, but it's a two-fold story.

I used to read Bigfooty, and the place disgusted me.

I then heard about Demonland through a friend who posted both on Bigfooty and here (old forum), and the rest is history.

I've been reading/posting/moderating this site for what feels like a lifetime.

Thank god we lost our post count when we moved to the new setup, or I would probably be up to about 20,000 posts by now! :o

 

I voted in the poll, but for what it's worth -

I read an article in one of the Melbourne dailies - perhaps The Age online iirc - and it mentioned Demonland and Demonology.

I thought I'd check them out and I've been lurking - and posting - fairly regularly since.

Word of mouth from a fellow Demon supporter.......thanks dees64 !


Through ology', people were bagging it, so I decided to go visit my self and found it far superior to ology'.

Ha!

just wondering if you want to know our age now, or the age when we discovered demonland, because our age now would be more relevant, but the age at which we discovered demonland is more relevant to the question of 'how did we discover demonland'.

It's refering to your age now.

We've done this sort of poll before, but the results will be very different now.

For one, there is already 2 females posting here. That's one more than last time! <_< :lol:

 

I heard of Demonology and Demonland via Eddie McGuire on The Footy Show a few years back...

I just voted and it says 4 females now wow getting better all the time :rolleyes:


Word of mouth, Male, 21-30, I'm Joe Average.

well i get the feeling the age might have been distorted a bit recently cause i know ive had a 21st in the last 6 months, and if i read rightly a few regular posters have aswell...

I just voted and it says 4 females now wow getting better all the time :rolleyes:

My vote seems to have blown this number out to seven ;) :D !!!

We have 10 members listed as female, it just shows that a higher percentage of females respond to polls! :P

Long time lurker on sites that talk about the mighty dees.

Read about it on bigfooty many moons ago (don't go there anymore... I get too angry)

I generally dont post much (also causes me to get angry).

Sadly not female (sadly for the poll's sake, personally i am quite happy)


I was searching the internet a year or so ago looking for a demon forum

Searched Google and this site came up

Had a look around, liked what i saw, and registered and now here i am

To tell you the truth I can't remember exactly how I came to know about the site. I think it was through an internet search. Because I live in the west we don't get a lot of Demon coverage in the local media so I was forced to find a forum like this to satisfy my cravings for Demon related news/opinions.

I'm not one to haunt other teams forums, but it seems like there is some passionate divides between us Demon fans on issues such as the coach and the players (ie. Bruce, Green, Miller, Danners). Are all clubs supporters like us, passionate but divided (in opinion I mean?)

7 females!

When did this happen? :o

Seroiusly, who knew there were so many of us in here :lol: ?!!!

I signed up because being in Sydney there is nothing written about, or talked about in regards to the Demons in the press.

So I went to find somewhere I could get a hold of Melbourne news and views and, well, here we are......

And just the record leucopogon, I think you will find all footy fan sites have particular divisions over certain players and the coach :rolleyes::) !!!

i found it through demonology i used to be quite a regular poster there and ever since i seen this forum the setup ect... i cant remember my login for demonology ... LOL

this is a lot better than demonology i reckon


Every registered female has voted apparently! :lol:

Every registered female has voted apparently! :lol:

Up to 10 now...

Come on females, own up!

I can name 6 female posters, myself included, who I know of, and I've been posting here forever.

Well the ones that set there gender, there are 10...

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
