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.


Are we seeing Geelongs culture crumbling?

Biffen, what I can say is that he's currently mentoring Mitch in relation to this for life after football.

2014 PICK 10 - Nakia Cockatoo

Selwood was pick 7 and it helps that they had a heap of father and son picks that where late in the draft at the start of the 2000s that became superstars and made this super team that we all have grown to know.

Recruiting Mitch Clark.

What the hell does that have to do with their culture crumbling?

Another gutless Demonlander trying to sink the boots in hey? What a brave guy.

I don't think we are seeing Geelong's culture crumbling, but rather their best players getting close to the end of their careers.

They were a great group and can't easily be replaced.

Some have already gone and others are near the end. Hopefully we see the same with Hawthorn and Sydney, though Sydney keeps topping up with high draft academy picks.

You just seem hyper outraged Stuie (assuming that is your anonymous name). And the comment by Dazzle,was in respect to recruiting Mitch Clark, not his issues with depression.

Stuie is my real name "Return To Glory".

Oh, so it's bad for Geelong's culture to recruit a highly talented forward/ruck? Yeah, I'm sure that's what he meant.... Geezus.

This guy is always lurking waiting to seize the high moral ground as a chance to vituperate against fellow posters.

Do you suffer from depression Stuie?

You seem very concerned about Mitch Clark.

I think we have established that Mitch Clark the person, the one who got a clearance to change clubs on the basis of his workplace environment, has problems remaining true to his employers.

I don't see many attacking him purely on the basis of his mental frailties.

But yes, we love to put the boots into lying mercenaries.

Off-field the culture is toxic, and as we all know the fish rots at the head.

Colin Carter has well-meaning intentions and is a good person, but I'm not sure of his capability in his role as president.

Cook is regularly heard commenting openly that he's sticking it out so he can hold the record as the longest serving club CEO in AFL/VFL history.

Whether serious or not, I don't think it sets a great example.

Players have recently been seen fingerpointing onfield during matches.

The quality and experience is not there any more, and a lot of the young talent is growing into eccentric prima donnas & upstarts with no one pulling them into like for their antics.

The culture is crumbling and rapidly, as far as I can see.

No no. We are trying to decipher why you think you are Jeff Kennett every time we discuss Clark.

It's just interesting.

See, there you go again.

If you think not being a weak sniping sniggering pathetic anonymous internet poster who takes pleasure out of kicking someone with depression behind the safety of their keyboard is taking the "high moral ground" then your moral ground must be considerably low.

    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
