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.

Use the old theme song Demons

that new one is stilted and “Forced”

They are too polite...

stuff you AFL...

A sad attempt SWY.  They sound like a bunch of eunuchs compared to the original Fables.  "Stuff" is too nice a term for the AFL on this one!

As usual the afl have decided to do something without asking our opinion and we have to accept it because we have no choice. Weren’t asked if we wanted it, just “too bad we’re doing it, tough luck if you don’t like it”.

The people’s game my a- -

Just heard this the news.  

Why would they change the bloody songs.

What has out club put out.  I saw Eddie was not happy.

 

The demons need to inject some demon and stand up to the AFL on this one.  Some traditions shld never be tinkered with and this is one of them.

Thanks I had a listen.  Not a fun its different enough especially the intro before the singing to annoy me.

Surelly the clubs would have had to sign off it.  But given some reactions I say nothing of the sort.  They had footage on the Perth news of the WC coach looking confused when the new version was plated today.

I'm just relieved they didn't add our second verse like they did for Geelong and Port... they are pretty terrible...

Tha second verse they’ve added to Geelong’s is truly awful. Stop tinkering ffs. Just stop it.

Only thing I think they should do is reintroduce our second chorus. “Oh the team played fine in the year 39.” Every merchandise I had always had it in printed lyrics, but they never played it. I haven’t heard it for years.

How many more lessons in this "renewal and improvement" space need to be learned?   Arnotts with their Shapes flavours, BIG M with their chocolate flavour, Coca Cola (repeat offenders), the bloody MCC with the MCG siren (the digital wizardry could never replicate the sound and it's now been lost to the annals of history) and so the list goes on.  

The new song is not the same.  And it's inferior.  DeeSpencer nailed it.   

Reflective of an obsession with tinkering.  Symptomatic of an organisation with a bloated management team, out of control egos and an out of touch CEO who doesn't understand the fundamentals of the business.  Lived through it at BHP.

Please email the club if you're aggrieved as I am.

Please don’t hold your breath, we can’t afford to lose another member.

 

This is why I respect Eddie, will stick up for his club. We don’t.

I understand they’re in a Hurry to celebrate, but after a victory, can the players sing it properly? They sound like Alvin and the chipmunks.

    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
