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.

I will be easily recognisable, I will be in a rather nice lavender lycra bodysuit, complaining about the lack of toilet facilities, bad temperedly kicking the non-existent advertising signage around the fence, and whingeing non stop about Jack Watts and how he just doesn't seem to be trying at traiining

Don't forget the gun picks..

Actually chap, for the grand old age of 62, I'm not in that bad a shape, if I say so myself, if it will assist you in something going forward, I could PM you one if you like

Saty this is taking a strange turn!!!

Looking forward to all the reports.

I wouldn't bother if I were you... the thread has already taken a turn for the worse, and it hasn't even officially started yet :-)

uh huh.

I only read the training reports for the weirdness these days.

I mean who cares about the training? What matters is potting Saty for being OCD and /or unhealthy obsessed.

[censored] 'em Saty. My grandmother spent a good 60 of her 90 years doing whatever it took to help 'her boys' of the MFC. If there was something to be done she was there to do it, and she did it with a smile and not expecting a thank you. All that mattered to her was that her beloved boys were supported so they could smash the other eleven pretenders to the throne.

At her funeral there was an all star cast of the 50's and 60's teams, and she was carried away with 'Grand Old Flag' playing.

The club needs people like you, Saty. Don't let the naysayers get you down.

Saty, I'm curious as to what the players call you at training? Is it Saty? TDI? Pete?

On a serious note...

I think we should start to more formally recognise Saty's efforts. As a poster earlier said, every footy club needs people like Saty involved, and while I know some of us take the pi$$, we do appreciate any news that he filters back.

It got me thinking how we could actually do something like this. When I started looking through some of Saty's training photos he posted on his Twitter account, as soon as I found a photo of the great man himself, I immediately thought of the word famous Vic Flowers (see below). Now, some of you may not know him by his correct name, however he is the leader of the Barmy Army (often referred to the name Jimmy, given his similar appearance to that of Jimmy Savile. If you've had a look at Saty's photos, we could have our very own Vic Flowers (that's not to say that you remind me of Jimmy Saville, Saty).

Given the amount of muscle we at Demonland can flex, could we somehow arrange it so that Saty become the official and spiritual leader of our Demon Army? Get him dressed up is some classic retro MFC gear, get a flag that's to the total maximum allowable size, and have him attend as many games as possible to pump the crowd up?

As we are hopefully starting to improve, and should win more games in the years to come, the Demon Army will continue to grow, and having an icon, similar to what Vic is to the Barmy Army, I think it would be great.

Hopefully this doesn't get too close to the stuff that CS used to implement (with much negativity from many on here).

Nb. Yes, I do have too much time on my hands.

Given that The Devil Inside already has a multitude of aliases such as Satyricon, Satyriconhome and Pete...and given he's admitted to being a pom and 62 years old...are you certain that he isn't also Vic Flowers?

Billy, actually Lynden Dunn calls me the old [censored], but as most of the others don't read Demonland, most call be Peter, if they actually know it, to Howie for instance everybody is "mate"

Actually this is rather sad, I actually asked one of the senior players why they don't read Demonland, I won't name him, they were advised not to as it was just full of negativity

I wonder why?

Might have something to do with the results over an eight year period.

Spot on. After a win this place turns senior players are all time greats and youngsters are future hall of famers. If players want to read something positive then we don't ask for much, just a few wins would do it!

I wouldn't advise them to read this site even when we are winning.

It's like social media, the players don't real time updates of what the fans think of them. There is no value for the players to get involved in a forum designed to dissect the club they play at and the players themselves.

They get the drift from those leaning over the fence in games anyway...

That is why I asked one of the senior players who is on Twitter, where they get [censored] as well, his answer was what I typed, I find it nteresting the few posters demanding wins and the negativity will stop, how simplistic, let me know where you all work and next time you [censored] up I can write something negative on social media

Saty.. it is a public forum. There WILL always be negativity in any sports forum you read whether they are winning or losing. There is always that one person who's never satisfied.

And if its not the negativity they cop on the twitter its the stalking and hassling they get from guys like you.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh

    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
