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.

The Ghan was brilliant.

I fell asleep before the end, what happened?

I’m not sure if it’s been mentioned on here yet but I’ve been watching Black Mirror on Netflix. It’s an anthology series from the UK that is what I would suggest is a modern take on the Twilight Zone. Some episodes are a bit ‘meh’ but overall it isn’t too bad and worth a look.

I'm a fan of Black Mirror and so is the rest of the household ... quirky, futuristic tales with a twist.

The episode with the Star Trek theme was riotous.  All the episodes aren't A grade but each episode is at least original and thought provoking. 

The show might have escaped my attention but for this thread.  Homeland was another that I followed up on after the show was recommended here.

The new series of X-Files is worth a look - a lot to live up to but just seeing Scully & Mulder back along with Skinner & the 'Cigarette Smoking Man' is enough for me - a trip down memory lane.

Good stuff Macca, I’ll have to catch up on the latest X-Files series. I’m only into the second season of Black Mirror so I haven’t seen the Star Trek theme episode as yet. 

My trash TV at the moment is Trailer Park Boys. Definitely would not be everyone’s cup of tea but I can’t get enough.

Series 3 (6 eps) of Black Mirror was a step-up again ET.  Currently watching season 4.  I haven't seen an average episode yet but I am a huge fan of the genre. 

X-Files season 11 has just kicked off after the iconic show returned last year (season 10)  Duchovny is looking a little worse for wear but he's lived a life.  The chemistry is still there with Gillian Anderson but I like the new series' mainly for it's nostalgic value revisited. 

Hangin' out for Billions,  Homeland,  Better Call Saul,  Silicon Valley,  Goliath,  Baskets,  Westworld & True Detective - all should be out (hopefully) early this year or at least by June/July

Couple of shows not mentioned on here are, 

Berlin Station, one series so far, excellent, not sure where you can get this may have to download

Line of Duty, 5 series so far, 4 on Netflix

Both British and both very good.

Ozark, Jason Bateman and Laura Linney, on Netflix was also very good, very different and had to keep watching, hard to watch just one episode.

Also Spooks, very good series 10 in all, you may have to download this. There is a movie on Netflix with Kit Harrington, based on the series, called surprisingly Spooks, MI5

Gunpowder, staring Kit Harrington, based on Guy Fawkes and the attempt to blow up Parliament, Harrington's distant relative Catsby was instrumental in the plot. Its a bit self indulgent but very good and very graphic. Three part series.

Watched the first 2 episodes of 'Ozark' and I'm well and truly hooked - thanks for the recommendation.  It's filling the 'Breaking Bad' void.

A UK made show which is outstanding (IMO) is Maigret ... Rowan Atkinson is excellent as the quietly spoken,  understated French Chief Inspector.  He's every bit as good as the late Robin Williams in playing a dramatic role. 

There's been 4 telemovies made and released so far and all are very very good (especially the last one - 'Maigret in Montmartre')

Yes they were good, I've seen them and was surprised to see how good Rowan Atkinson was.

There is another show called The Fall with Gillian Anderson (X Files) and that's up to season 3, also very good. I downloaded it but I think it's on Netflix now.

What did you guys think of Halt and Catch Fire?

I thought the first three seasons were great but perhaps the last season could have been a little tighter in its scripting and plot line.

For those who liked the Good Wife, the cable version now just about to start of its spin off (second season), the "Good Fight" is a very watchable show.

The new British dramas, the Girlfriends and MacMafia are okay also, without being up there with some of the more recent British shows.

And of course there is a new season of Spiral (Engrenage).... one of my long time favourites.

Glad you are enjoying Ozark  Macca...wonder how many seasons it will run

And I'll also vote for Maigret !

Put BBO on to Toast of London. If you're into twisted degenerates who constantly fluck up, you may enjoy it.  

Thanks for the recommendation. I’m a few episodes in and enjoying it so far, despite it being one of the weirdest shows I’ve watched.

'Homeland' just continues on with its excellence.  Nearly at the end of season 7 and the story lines seem never ending.  

'Billions' is great and is getting better in its 3rd season.  Paul Giamatti & Daniel Lewis continue to shine but Asia Kate Dillon is stealing the show portraying Taylor Mason. 

And 'Westworld' has just started up again (Season 2) ... First episode was action-packed but I'll need to listen to a few podcasts to find out what the hell is going on.  The time-lines need figuring out too but the various podcasts clear things up.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
