Racial Vilification of Harley Bennell
Clayton van Oliver replied to dazzledavey36's topic in Melbourne Demons
The context of racism against historically diminished people is different to racism against people of European heritage, just because of the nature of historical events. The children of perpetrators do not inherit the crime. The children of victims do inherit the suffering. Punkt. -
Oscar doing a Jack Viney impression, shrugging off a couple of sun and bounding up the wing...bloody loved it.

Ross Lyon analysis of lack of scoring
Clayton van Oliver replied to Hogan2014's topic in Melbourne Demons
Ever considered just saying it quietly to yourself? Or just don’t hit enter after every post of outrage and rather build them up to just send one nonsensical and flabbergasted rant per day, rather than the usual squillion? Just my opinion. -
Melbourne vs Essendon Postponed
Clayton van Oliver replied to Deemented Are Go!'s topic in Melbourne Demons
Your ignorance does not excuse how offensive this is to the thousands of people in healthcare who have been working tirelessly, globally, actually dealing with the severities of it. Get your head out of your [censored], bloody pathetic. -
Oliver: The Forgotten Superstar?
Clayton van Oliver replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Agreed. For some reason he has also been copping [censored] rather than accolades since day dot in the media -
This is defo a thing, yes

Clayton van Oliver replied to MattyVee's topic in Melbourne Demons
Rather live with all these dirty European smokers than in the nanny state Australia has become ? -
Thankfully ratings aren’t premiership points! ?

I work in tourism in NL, everything is shut down and messages from people working in medical care say that the fan has not yet been hit. Am one of many freelancers who have just lost prob months of income. We had to cancel our wedding for August. Hate to say it folks but it will all be cancelled soon. I like the idea of a quarantined 8 week season, and would not give two [censored] about an asterix next to it. But as of this week, the idea of doing anything but suspending it all would be ridiculed here. Get inside Dees, never before has sitting on your bum been so crucial to world health. The positive is that, in the face of great social threat, the power of social unity emerges. We are seeing it here, everyone is in it together and no matter the uncertainty, solidarity will remain throughout. Let’s see what happens. Strength and love to everyone. Don't panic; isolate yourselves.

TRAINING: Wednesday 11th December 2019
Clayton van Oliver replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
A huge thanks to all track reporters from a very cold Amsterdam, as well as to Andy, Nasher et al. Excitement brewing. Go Dees. -
Was at his first match at Whitten oval against the Roys, loved shouting Oooooze for years thereafter. Would love this appointment. Make it happen Dees.

Many won't get what you're saying as it flies in the face of our general acculturation regarding such things. I think you're bang on.

Jesus some of the comments on here. Trade Tracc, trade Brayshaw, May collecting his super and nothing more etc... If this year has taught me anything it's that we need this ?? as an emoticon option on Demonland for 2020.

Bloody glad that Beelzebub, SWYL, TGR, PF and the rest of the itchy nut crew are miles away from managing our list or having any say in anything. You blokes need to calm the farm, god I'd hate to be in a tight spot with you next to me. All* decent posters and genuine supporters but this is a journey. Yea if we stuff up next year then you'll be shown to be correct, but a coach doesn't get their team to a PF by fluke, and clubs don't establish sustainability by jerking their knee at the slightest obstacle. Of course Goody gets a mulligan season. Until next year we won't know. So just chill. Edit: *mostly decent posters

Dude if you're still looking for a place to drink, find the student bar up on the 5th level of some building. Ppl will know what you're talking about

Nice! Watch out for the open manholes on your stumble home Funny cos I'm in Basel dealing with an irritating Slovakian. Still better than watching footy this year though.

Demonland Podcast LIVE Tonight (30/7) @ 8:30 pm
Clayton van Oliver replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Lads, I usually am working this time so can never listen live, but holidays now, sitting on a beach in Ibiza, managed to get the blessings from Mrs AmDam to tune in. I am one of the positive group, have looked at this season as part of a journey. A few thoughts: If not tanking, is it possible that the club has taken a two year approach? So at the start of the season they looked at 2019/20 as one season? We won't know of course til next year, but it seems like there was an assessment that this year would be a write-off, just couldn't be publicised due to hiatory of 'not tanking'? So some big risks were taken (surgeries, no KF besides wied and TMac, or outside run etc) prob thinking we'd end up around 8th and then gear up (not in essendon way) for the 'second half of the season' (2020)? We've then been hit by a perfect [censored] storm,which has then killed our skills. Or am I just delusional? Our inside 50 count is amazing. Perhaps the goal of this year was to keep that up, knowing that we would have trouble converting, but that if we then fix our transition and defensive running this off season, those inside 50s will come home to roost next year? Finally, silly season sees a lot of players and Aussies in Europe. Dusty had a infamously good time here with some mates of mine, prior to his best season ever. Maybe the club should send Angus over to us Shout out to Skuit and cheers for all your fine work -
AFL and 18 Clubs apologise to Adam Goodes
Clayton van Oliver replied to Lucifers Hero's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm surprised we didn't solve this issue in an online forum. Time to close thread?
