    Robert Walls predicted the Eagles to collect the spoon in 2018.

    If he were Jeff Kennett he would take credit for motivating Adam Simpson to prove him wrong.

    Right? The posters calling for his sacking got what they so badly wanted yet they continue to disparage him. But I suppose it’s to be expected on this site. I’m just wondering when it will taper off, if ever.

    Idk who our next coach will be but already I feel sorry for him.

    Hey Ghosty - FWIW, this site is pretty tame compared to others. so you can image how toxic they are!

    Which is why I steer clear of those other sites.

    I recently asked a DL-er who’s been on here way longer than I have if this site has ever been worse than it is now. He said during the dark times (Neeld era etc.) it was very bad but in terms of personal attacks, sniping at one another and just generally being a nasty person, now is an all-time high.

    I love Dennis Denuto as my new nom-de-plume. Perfect vibe for 'Land. Why? Well, let’s face it — clueless, inept, and prone to making things up on the spot pretty much sums up the many posting styles on Demonland. Denuto may not win many cases, but he’s loyal, well-meaning, and always ready to argue “the vibe,” even when he hasn’t quite read the fine print. It feels like a perfect fit.

    Now, on to the big one — Goodwin’s sacking.

    Look, I mean, I don’t want to get all technical here, but it’s just… wrong. It’s the vibe. It’s the list, it’s the culture, it’s the synergy, it’s the… the magnets on the whiteboard. It’s Mabo. It’s justice. And yeah, maybe Goody didn’t always get the structures right, but you don’t just boot the bloke because of a bad vibe. Or do you? Anyway… the point is: I rest my case.

    Social media is going downhill badly. X (Twitter) in particular is unbearable. Free speech, as Musk thinks it is, is just full of the stupid people believing stupid things. It's all negative too and of course everyone having a go at everyone and everything.

    Facebook is all about blaming the council for everything.

    Humans have a negativity bias where individuals tend to focus more on negative information and experiences than positive ones.

    Demonland is very good in comparison, though personal attacks, in any form are completely unacceptable and unnecessary.

    Treat others how you would like to be treated.

    I’m hearing that the Swans are talking to Simon about a Senior Assistant role and there is genuine interest.

    that was on one of the shows / podcasts yesterday too; interest from both sydney-based clubs due to goodwin's wife being based up there

    bloods went into 2025 a coach short, so will be looking to beef up their footy department

    I would bank it that he'll be working for one of those clubs in the near future.

    Tough call for him between moving to be with his wife and leaving his kids.

    You'd assume it happens sooner rather than later

    Definitely a tough call, his son is around 17?

    Hope it all works out for them.

    Spoke to a very well connected Swans supporter this morning who said that too.

    Swans regard Goody as a very good “Strategist”

    This cannot be accurate. The Demonland brains trust and this very thread says so.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
