Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

*ahem*

my name is ame, actually amy but there are four amys in my year at school so i spell it ame.. stops the confusion. i'm currently in year 8 and should be doing my pe theory homework but i decided to bust time on here instead. i'm turning 14 in exactly 14 days (yah!). my parents recently separated. i umpire netball locally on every second saturday morning. i first went to the footy in 1997 when i was 5 years old. it was the melbourne - bears game ( i think. something like that) and quickly became addicted, going with my gran and mum to almost every game i could. my melbourne loving gran died in 2003 after a long battle with cancer, and we didnt go to the footy for the rest of the year (all of two games.. grrr). i live pretty far away from my school and most of my friends go for richmond. i love music but dont particuarly like mainstream stuff, i prefer stuff like Bikini Kill and Amy Studt. i went to the 2000 Grand Final (heartbreak!) and my favourite footy memory would be lining up for place tickets after the 2000 Preliminary Final where we beat the Kangas. me and my friends were running around the MCG at midnight! my emails are [email protected] and ame.the.insane@hotmail and if anyone wants to add me that would be great. i want to be an AFL Journlist when i grow up (so i can watch as much footy as i want and write about it .. bliss!) i also like webdesiging and making graphics and stuff.. i'm also celiac and if i eat stuff i'm not suppose to i get sick.. erk . x ame

(wow. i wrote. heaps. pity i dont pour this kinda energy into my schoolwork)

update: as of july/23 i am officially 14!

Hey

name is duncan and im 16 in yr 11 and i barrack for the dees - yet i dont live in melbourne. i live in the harbour city. i had to suffer arrogant swans fans who jumped on the bandwagon paying out every single other team. i go for melbourne because they were playing in the first ever game of afl i saw on TV (they beat collingwood i think)(i think i was loike 6 or 7 at the time). Also my dad grew up going for the dees - fave player was bluey adams.

now my fave player is byron and robbo. i play full forward for my club team and have kicked 217 goals in 127 games.

u can talk 2 me on [email protected] on msn.

oh yeh, and u can add me as a friend on www.myspace.com/spurs_4

peace

Well I guess I can let you in on a little bit about myself!

I'm Lis, as you can very well see, i'm 21 and i'm Nashers wife (ohh the poor fella has no clue what he's gotten himself into!).

Although i'm not a big footy fan, never really paid much attention to it until I got together with Nasher, I am learning to like it, i've even managed to learn some of the Demon players! I've always loved seeing live games, it's the whole atmosphere that I love and find appealing, I was just never one for watching it on TV as the comentators [censored] me off to no end!

I'm usually busy working as a bar attendant, I love my job and couldn't think of doing anything better than chatting to the regulars while serving them their daily beers. But that's about enough of me, i'm usually floating around reading different posts hoping to learn a little more about the sport that my husband adores so much!

Hey guys,

Used to post on demonland a bit, but mainly post on demonology. Somehow forgot what my exact username was on this site, so I have signed up again today.

I'm 23, live in Parkdale work in formalwear as a regional area manager. Been a member of the dees since i was 8 (1990) and a cheersquad since 1998 or 2000, I cant remember which year?!?!

However I dont sit with the cheersquad all that much as I prefer a beer, but when I'm hungover and can't drink I join the cheersquad. Missed two finals since 1990 and been to two interstate matches in my time.

I also love my other football code, soccer! Love the Mighty Melbourne Victory and the Socceroos!

Why did you choose the Dees in 2001? Any particular reason, or just one out of the hat?

Choose them for 2 reasons.

1. My best mate follows them

2. The first game i saw was Melb v Port Adelaide and i told myself before the game that whoever wins, ill follow them from then on. Thank god it was a victorian team.

3. Dees are the best but i do follow Hawks and Brisbane religiously too.

Im 21, from melbourne and been following the deez since 2000. I like how they generally play very 'dignified' footy

I'm not a hardcore fan, but I attend a few matches every year and watch it on TV when it's on free-to-air.

Currently I'm into hip hop, R&B music. Also like a bit of rock

ps, i really love the layout of this forum - very professional looking and jam-packed with features :)

Okay here we go.

22, male. Getting married in November, can't wait very excited.

At uni, doing teaching and should be doing homework but I'm doing this. Yay.

Barracked for the dees since I was about six, no one knows why. A six year old me announced that I had renounced the heathen magpies (Dad's team) and now barracked for the Demons.

Been a paid up member since the 1999 season. Bleed red and blue and am looking forward to a cup in 2008!

Damn, i feel crook reading the birth dates of most of you here.

My name is Craig. Born second of April 1968 in Numurkah Victoria, and am of Scottish/German/, and a little, Aboriginal stock.

Spent 4 years living in Maitland N.S.W, and now live in Blackwater Qld, working as a shotfirer in a coal mine.

In case you dont know, a shotfirer puts explosives in the ground, then turns big rocks into little rocks.

Having grown up in a conservative National party voting area, i can see both sides of the argument when it comes to politics, (I am a delegate for the CFMEU, and was part of the team that negotiated our last EBA, so i am not a fan of AWA's).

I read, but do not reply to, almost all posts on this site, and demonology, and i find that the posters i am drawn to are the ones i disagree with the most.

HELLO ALL!

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
