  • 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.

aside from the last 4 that we have won... there is history, and there is recent history. chin up , they'll prepare accordingly for it

and that's what I'm hoping for, by mentioning it here.

If the tone we spread, is a bit cautious; hopefully that will aid the team in its quest to win again against a team on its knees atmo.

 

The Crows didn't turn up on this weekend gone, and that's what I'm cautioning against, for us this week. They had prepared for the game in Alice.

 

The game yesterday was sapping, and I hope we do not have a let down, this week.  Preparation or not.

The time is drawing nearer.  The beast will be unleashed in his first ever final in front of 90K Friday night at the MCG.  Having played just 7 games this season and struggling with for the 12 months with a frustrating foot problem,  JV might just be more angry than usual ...  if thats even possible.

Adds another layer of intrigue to an already tantalizing game.

I want Jack Viney to absolutely crack Cam Guthrie open.

Up there as one of my most hated players going around. Will never forget what he did to Neville Jetta back in 2015.

Agree completely... But what did he do to Neville Jetta back in 2015?

Ran up to Jetta from behind and bumped him to the ground. Jetta was completely blind sided and did not see it coming, was on the ground gasping for air for a good 3 minutes.. all done behind play.. Guthrie ran away like a little [censored] as if nothing happened. 

The Gawn incident was the tipping point for me.

He is a piece of [censored] and dead set oxygen thief. I want him knocked out Neville Bruns fashion.

I reckon Ablett is a little bit softer these days avoiding the hard stuff a bit more. I’d be telling the lads to dump him at every opportunity. 

Send viney straight to Selwood. Let the skippers go head to head. I’m certain in a big final jack will make his mark

Looks like Viney was the one who actually kicked it in the Ablett one. I’d say it should have been a free kick for HTB but I accept that it would have been impossible to tell whose foot the ball hit in real time.

Looks to me as though Ablett threw it and hit Viney’s boot.

Ump should have just said incorrect disposal and pay it. They always pay the scrubby kicks as HTB.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
