  • 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.

How good is Daisy's commentary?? She's quickly becoming one of my favourites because despite being a demon she seems to remain unbiased, and calls it as she sees it and really knows what she's talking about!

Thanks for clarifying who that was. I just assumed it was Hymie the robot from Get Smart.

What's offensive is convicted cheating neanderthals like Ricky Nixon's opinion on Daisy

He has been reduced to the role of a pathetic and bitter sniper. Trying to get publicity through cheap shots like that - bah just ignore the fool.

Gotta love Daisy. She may well have put her foot in the door for an expanding career in the media. She seems to be universally respected ( apart from [censored] like Nixon) and I certainly find her comments valuable and incisive .

She provides a terrific ambassador for the MFC.

I have to confess to a crush though - I have her pic on my membership badge and live in hope of running into in the members so I can get it autographed. ( I even carry a sharpie with me)

She is a natural. Intelligent and all  class unlike some of her male counterparts.                               Ricky Nixon is irrelevant and simply a disgraceful human being.  His comments prove the point.           Well done Daisy.

Ricky Nixon has a problem with her (other than she's older than 14 and doesn't do cocaine).

Glowing recommendation. That guy is like some kind of jumble sale of messed up vicious ego idiot.

 

But in all seriousness, she might just be the best new commentator introduced in a decade, or who knows how long really? Especially to be so good so early. Doesn't waste words, sticks to her job as boundary rider providing current information and then interviews searching for a bit of character in the breaks, rather than going on long and boring BTs... I mean, inane rants.

I can only admire Ricky Nixon and Charlie Sheen. Not because I like what they say,but because of their dedication to modern feminism and cocaine.

I just made the unfortunate mistake of checking out his Facebook page......

If I saw one of my friends liked that page then I'd probably question our friendship. 

It's not even Nixon himself that I have the problem with, as he's just had his life fall apart, is very sad and is trying desperately to get some sort of connection to the football industry back, no matter how pathetic it might be. Seeing a woman doing 'his' job must kill him inside. 

The real problem is the people who follow him and comment. They are just awful people. Awful, awful people.

Surely that's not actually Ricky Nixon ^ and rather some internet troll claiming to be him.

Wasn't Nixon at all.  Apparently some schoolgirl stole his phone, clothes and access pin.

Nixon is the bad guy and we are all really good .

We can sit and watch Ricky spiral from the safety of our moral high ground for knocking our Daisy.

He is like the bad santa of the afl and I don't think he really cares if people think he is a mysoginist or a seducer of troubled teens.Not one bit.

If everybody in the AFL had clean laundry I would be shocked.

Having said that about Nixon,I still think he is wrong- she is a tolerable commentator but she ain't quite Howard Cosell.

The Nixons of this world can get away with a lot of objectionable behavior while they're on top, but once the bubble is burst, there's no coming back. Their base character is exposed to the world.

We may be about to see another example with John Coates.

You could have been talking about any one of three different Nixons. President Richard, Chief Commissioner Christine and now Ricky.

  Boys will be boys but Christine was totally destructive and divisive and never punished.

Thats the only rational conclusion to be drawn as I'm sure everyone agrees.

    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
