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.

Number 1 on the list has to be the North Melbourne big footy forum. I was just there. I feel decidedly duller for having read some of that drivel. The vitriol they spew is staggering when you consider their miserable history of low achievement. 

Bomberblitz ( or whatever they call themselves now ) just as bad. Perhaps a higher average IQ.

I went once to Victoria Park and stood in front of the Social club watching the dees salute. That was tough as I dared not open my usually big mouth. I had to pretend to be upset at the result.

Linton street, Moorabbin was dangerous in the old days, not so much because of the footy but because my siblings and I used to steal half empty lemonade bottles from between the feet of the Saints fans in the outer to take them to the milk bar for the refunds. We made a fortune from it( we were good )

I went to the old Victoria Park oval one particular day, after a few frothies, with a couple of other Dees supporters and stood in front of the stand surrounded by Pies supporters and gave it too them all day, foolish move and on reflection I was lucky to have left with my teeth intact. We won and I was even worse after that.

Went to Linton street with a few guys, one of which was a Saints member, we had had a belly full of beer and I made a complete prat of myself singing the Melbourne song in the social club rooms after we beat them, It was a stupid and ungracious thing to do and I apologised to my friend a few day later.

Except to get to the G.

Luckily it is only just the other side, if it was much further I would ignore its existence as I do with everything else out that way.

Live in and grew up norf of the Yarra. Can confirm it's hostile territory for Melbourne supporters. Mates are split between Carlton, Essendon and Collingwood.

Same same for me as well. If only the MCG was Bayside. I know that's selfish.

I would not be able to contain myself. I know a couple of eagle supporters here and I thought Geelong and Hawthorn supporters were smug.

Vic park was the worst of the grounds. I remember going there with a couple of collinwood mates as a guest in the stand behind the nothern end goals. Luckily they were playing I think Sth Melb but the crowd was a disgrace. Spitting on the opposition coach was something I saw which blew me away. I think the last time we played there we won and they were on top of the ladder ( 94?) and I left very qiuckly with my scarf tied under my jumper.

T he next worse was Windy Hill. Full of essenscum supporters who were a stage above Richmond barrackers because they could pronounce the letter F.

Smug Bastards...

Was married to a hawks supporter  in the late 70s and 80's and had to go back to that place after every game we played against them. Except once when we almost beat them when Flower kicked a few in the last quarter. Tuck got a lucky free  and they just fell over the line to win. I gave them hell and said they will never win the flag that year which they didn't.  On the way out of the G I went for a slash and when I came out they had all gone.  Left me there so didn't have to go back to to the social club. Ya!!

Anywhere this year with some demons colours on. Apparently we are all bandwagoners and "coming out of the woodwork". 

lol I know right?

Been getting to as many games as possible for the last 15 years, but now all of a sudden I'm just on the bandwagon.

The luck that club has had, since Smithy taught John Kennedy all he knows is quite incredible. We must get back on our feet and stand strong

Year after Year....

Yes, I got that comment thrown at me on the TIO ground immediately after the game in Darwin of all places, and from a North Melb supporter - go figure!

He also asked me how the snow was in Buller, and I said, "I don't effing know, I'm here in Darwin supporting the Dees, having made the trip from North Melb, where I live!"

I mentioned to him smugly the Roy Morgan research paper (about how loyal Dees' supporters are), then casually had a shot for goal from Jayden's flank outside 50 with my daughter's ball and popped it straight through the middle. (Ok, it was 30 metres out, but on a similar angle.) 

He gave me a modicum of respect after that.

    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
