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.

6.  T. Mac. - just one word "outstanding".

5.  Watts - continued on from last week.

4.  Gawn - his hitouts to advantage had us in the box seat from go to whoa.

3.  Hogan - he's a "keeper" (lol).

2.  N. Jones  -  tireless, tough and led ftom the front.

1.  Viney  - see Jonesy.

6. McDonald T - complete game.  Was a Colussus in defence and very effective on the offence.  I think concerns over his disposal are generally exaggerated anyway, but last night there were no errors at all that I noticed.  Makes you wonder why he can't do it all the time, but I'll definitely take it.

5. Watts - got right on top early when it counted.  Making a late season charge at the B&F now I reckon.

4. Hogan - going from strength to strength.  Took a lot of marks, got a lot of the ball, and kicked goals.  Gee you'd love to see him iron out some of those bad set shot misses, but it's a small criticism in an otherwise dominant game.  Gave me a great LOL moment when he pushed the feeble Dawson out of the way for that mark.  The empathizer in me felt a slight stab of pain on behalf of all Freo supporters because I'd have hit the roof if that was us, but I shrugged that off quickly.

3. Jones N/Viney/Tyson - I know this makes my vote illegal but I felt these three truly belonged in a block.  A dominant contested possession performance that was the major driver to us getting so far ahead in the first half.

2. Gawn - because Gawn.  His roving the ball is as exciting as his tap work.  A 208 centimetre footballer/athlete.  Highlight of the season for me.

1. Grimes - Excellent game back and didn't fade as it went out.  Contested reliably and used it well mostly.  Pleased for him.

Thought my block vote would make room for Hunt but it didn't.  If he'd used the ball as he did last week I'd have been forced to find room for him in there somewhere, but a few poor kicks dropped him to seventh.  He's just so exciting to watch though.

6- T Mac - possibly career best game. 31 disposals for a KPD is incredible. And he used the ball well

5 - Watts -   Game was won in 1st quarter and he dominated. Ended with 19 touches, 10 marks, 5 scoring shots

4 - Hogan - 20 touches, 12 marks, 4 goals, 5 tackles . Enough said

3 - Gawn - another step towards the AA team, silver service for the mids as always

2 - Jack Viney - 29 touches, 6 clearances, 7 tackles, 8 inside 50's, 3 score assists ... bull at a gate

1 - Nev Jetta - another All Australian performance, lock down job and 26 touches, great rebound.

Extremely stiff -   N Jones, D Tyson, Kent, Grimes

I like your maths. Hunt comes seventh with eight players named ahead of him.

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f

    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
