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.

Would welcome him to the club in any role we can get him, but reckon he'd be very difficult to convince, seems to hate us even more after the job interview a few years ago.

i dont blame him

Absolutely what we need! and to swallow our pride and ask for the AFL's help!

A proven premiership coach would demand the respect of everyone at the club and could help find a solution to why the players are developing at negative million miles and hour.

For sure, get him. We are so [censored] up at the moment, that it's going to need someone like Sheeds to really turn things round.

How did things get this bad? What has Cameron Schwab done to make such a large group of people want his blood?

Let Sheeds prove that he can turn GWS's fortunes around!

Stuff Gws if were 1/2 a chance we should get him... he wanted to come to us before when garry n co. said no thanks, he span it in the media to make out he was interviewing us and turned us down. we stuff up again imagine the sponsers, supporters media hype surronding Sheedy at melbourne we would be a force again, think Sir Alex at Man u. Why did Carlton turn on one of there own to get MM?? Simply because u cant get better then the master coaches who have been to the top...

It's a very simple no from me. Was does he bring to the table? Comedic value?

If we go down the experienced coach path then it's Mark Williams for me.

Sure things are not great at the moment, but we have to give Neeld time. Why, because the players have had it so good for so long, of course they're going to create a stink when someone comes in and challenges their cushy way of life. Imagine having to work and earn their hefty wages, the nerve!

Neeld deserves time, so too does the coaching panel, the likes of the CEO and even the board have had plenty of this, they should be the first one's in the gun, they have overseen our horrific culture continue with the likes of the tanking debacle, etc. Secondly comes the playing group, about time they are held accountable, as they are the one's ultimately responsible for our on-field performance.

If the time comes that Neeld must be moved on, an experienced coach should be the only option. Why not aim for a big target, as it would take a big target to turn this ship around. Clarkson? Fanciful. Sheedy? LOL. Williams? his time as a head coach is done. Paul Roos should be our main target. Unlikely? absolutely, but he loves to stroke his ego, no doubt he would find it hard to reject the chance of turning a basket case into a premiership-threat.

Just my 2 cents.

    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.

    DEMONLAND: Good evening, Demon fans and welcome to the Demonland 2024 Grand Final Podcast … It’s been a beautiful last day of September and how sweet it is to bring you our coverage of all things that matter about the great Demon resurgence which we’ve seen over the past six or seven months.
