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.

Bernt Bernie Barred from Barrels, takes 10s off the clock and chips it to Salem instead. Was I the only one that thought it was over when I saw he had the ball? Also a very costly non-spoil from Tmac gave Hawthorn the mark and ascendency from a kickout when we were surging. They get the ball in their forward half for thee next 5-10mins.

This side is good enough to play finals...and they won't.

Can't recall a demons team with so much disparity between talent and results.

All four losses should have been wins.  Couldnt even steal one or two of them though. Steal just one we are in the 8.  But no, we blew all 4 games.

. Any other team in our position would be in the top 4, but the MFC just love to throw away games. A team of losers

I usually go overseas about this time of year and get to miss a month and a half of footy. Alas I'll be around all winter to watch the team serve up this rubbish every week.

All I have ever wanted from this team is a consistent level of effort. Don't play well against good teams then fail to show up against crap ones. Don't play two great quarters of footy and two horrible ones in the same game. Just give me effort every week.

The worst teams to follow are the ones you can't trust. I haven't trusted this team for nearly 15 years.

i know the team is improving and the ingredients are there to be a good side. But we never quite seem to make that jump and get that shot of confidence that makes magic happen. We have been a young team for a long time now. That happens when you fail to become a good team. I hope this is the last year where we talk about being a young side.

A few things. 

[censored] we were bad in the first, but we did work our way back into it.

Some of the missed frees were abysmally but didn't affect the game

Leigh Matthew's is a biased [censored] who is losing relevance by the day. 

BT is an absolute [censored].

Hamish Mc is clearly a Hawks fan as he was livid at one point and could hardly talk. 

I really hope foxtel tell Ch7 to get [censored] in all games and [censored] off theses tosses in the com box. 

Viney was good

Jones got better

Oliver was good

Hogan was good in patches but needs to chase harder (can forgive him at the minute but it needs to change)

[censored] you you mother [censored] arse hole hawks. You can all go and shove you head up each other's arses you bunch of arrogant flogs.

JKH.......how long can this go on, never should have been in the team to begin with.

Bugg not up to it.

Hannan would be OK if he could kick or handball, but he can't.

Thought Viney and Tyson were good.

Would love to see Hogan run and jump at the ball instead of always engaging the body, makes it to easy for the third man in.

Lewis was ok in the end but that non-attempt at  a tackle in the 2nd on Rioli was a disgrace.

Jones started terribly.

Frost was fairly influential in the end but had a shocking start.

We managed to make Tim O'brien look like Nick Riewoldt and played Roughead into form.

Salem poor today, dropped marks and a loopy handball that stood out.

Season done, that's a shame thought I'd get to view some finals but that's over.

Might have to try and follow league for a couple of years....its just too much supporting this club at times.

Leigh Matthews' pro-Hawthorn bias made listening to the coverage nearly impossible. Didn't even try to hide it.

Hamish McLachlan tried to hide it but failed (e.g. when Garlett was joking around with Stratton about kicking three goals he was like "a great response would be to say "that's cute, I have three flags"".

Fantastic second half coaching Goody.  Positional moves at the half, plus a 100% lift in intensity on the field, almost snatched an unlikely victory.  Like everyone reading this, I'm absolutely gutted.  It seems that four quarters too much to ask.

I can pinpoint the moment we screwed it. First quarter, Dom Tyson with no peripheral awareness (streaming into the 50) turns it over. 3 goals to 2 becomes 4 and f'ing 1.

I missed seeing the first half, that's obviously where we lost it. We won't make finals this year, we're too inconsistent and Gawn is so important to our team. There were so many centre bounces that the Hawks were able to easily break free that just wouldn't happen if we had a recognised ruckman. 

We're going to take a step backwards this year I feel, the core of the side is still young and susceptible to varying levels of intensity. The competition is also very tight so I feel we'll get some good wins along to way but we're going to get some bad (and stupid) losses as well. 

Strangely I don't think I'm angry, more numb. I've seen us going through so many rebuilds and crap times, I really thought this year was going to continue the upward trend. Now I just can't get my hopes up for this year, I'm just going to do what I do every year: ride it out, enjoy the good moments and push myself through the bad ones. 

Hawks had leaders who stood up when needed. Gibson, Hodge, Burgoyne, and Roughead were able to steady the ship when it counted. Viney and Jones were good in the second half, as was Lewis. I can't imagine what a train wreck it must've been in the first half, I'll never know as I won't put myself through seeing it. 

Gutted, numb, sick of this feeling I've had for about 90% of my Melbourne supporting life.

This club once again lets itself down and kiss finals goodbye.  We lose again the ones we should not.  This team is not mature enough.  They will forever be a wannabe team.  They got beaten by a more professional team.  This happens too often and totally gutted.

I'd like to send a big "[censored] you" to the two shithead Hawks supporters who just lobbed in the Melbourne seating section after 3/4 time. 

I hate all other team supporters but you just sent Hawks to the top of the list.

Lot of parallels with the Dog v Tigers in the game today. Dees had a poor 1st qtr same as dogs, Both down by 30 odd points at half time. Resurgent 3rd Qtr to get level but unlike the dogs the Dees did not bring it home. Can't put my finger on it but we seemed to lose the impetus of the 3rd qtr whereas the dogs kept theirs. That big red head for the Hawks was good in the last but we had all the momentum. We did not respond in the last minute when the hawks had 2 or 3 extras down their backline . On field awareness may have been lacking.

    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
