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.

Starting to get close to the pointy end .... While none of this weeks matches spell success or failure from a final 8 perspective they are very important

Adelaide v Geelong in Adelaide and Geelong possibly without Dangerfield... Will the Crows be affected by the dreaded Darwin Legs syndrome.

Just to mention another couple of key games... Sydney v Saints at the SCG.. a win for either team means a strong chance of September action. (Sydney for mine)

And my favourite non MFC match.........  Toiges v GWS at the MCG. Go Orange Men !!

Finally has North got one last hurrah left against the Bombers... (probably not but I can still hope.)

Ideal results from this weeks round of footy...

Adelaide Vs Geelong - Geelong loss as their percentage lower and more likely to fall. Plus the Cats are smug.

Essendon vs North - Any Dons loss a good thing, a loss makes it harder for them to catch us.

Western Bulldogs Vs Goldcoast Suns - A GCS win would almost put Doggies out of the race

Sydney Vs Saints - Hard call, but if we are bold and capable we'll be contesting with Swans for spot in top 4, so Saints to win.

Freo Vs Hawks - Both teams out of race, higher Hawks finish lower their gift to the Saints is... 

Richmond Vs GWS - Want Tigers to lose as would open up 5th spot, and a Tigers end of H&A flame out would be poetry..

Collingwood Vs Westcoast - Want WC to lose, pies to start their EOS celebrations/palpatations asap 

Brisbane Vs Carlton - Go Lions!  ... it's Carlton

Given the evenness of the competition its actually hard to pick which results would benefit us most...

Adelaide to pump Cats because the whole Cat team is up themselves, including the boot stud person and especially the coach. Gods gift to the AFL......

Well I hate Geelong but tonights result means stuff all. However the 2 games that mean a lot for us are the druggies and North as well as coll against west coast.  Hopefully North and as painful for me to say it Collingtrash both win. Probably not however.

Julian Smith from AAP could possibly have the "photos of the year" of Dusty "clean punching" that poor player from Brisbane in the head last week, thus making a bigger mockery of the AFL's double standards, even though the player had already said that he was barely" touched"

is there a link, most of this year I haven't got worked up about the MRP but since Oliver I am totally over it as a even handed process because the precedents are so inconsistent  and media driven.

Crows seem to get a great run from umps at home.

Our wins in Adelaide over the past few years have been some of our better wins I have seen. The umps were against us both times, and we just ignored them and played hard contested football. We broke Adelaide. Geelong would have to do the same, but with Danger and Selwood not at 100% it seems unlikely.

You are correct, It made our wins even sweeter. The umps do get swayed by 45999 screaming idiotic fans.

    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
