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.

As was suspected by many, Brayshaw and Tyson were not deemed to be in the best 22 based on their preseasons.

Pathetic decision by the selection committee to leave Tyson out for Maynard who did not show he was an AFL capable player throughout the preseason.

Interview really didn't give much as they were asking him questions that he would not be able to answer honestly as the captain.

I noticed Roos was quite cool towards him

That is a disgusting allegation directed towards our captain - I'm somewhat surprised the moderators have allowed it to remain the way it has been worded. 

Just because your opinion differs from an answer he gave to a question - As a supporter base, we cant expect respect until we can display respect as a supporter base. 

However, I'm sure you are prepared to come out from your anonymous "keyboard warrior" status and direct the allegation direct to his face - but then again I won't hold my breath.

No he stated it as a fact - my point was more to his tone - but each to his own. Again, as a community, if we want respect you need to show respect. 

Had he stated it as an opinion which I clearly pointed out in my answer I recognised it as an opinion - think we need to watch how we refer to our players. But each to their own - I also just stated my opinion.

Does it upset you that I have respect for our players both on & offline?  I have this funny feeling the players are hoping people can follow my lead ( but you may not be aware of that) - but it does not surprise me your inability to follow our players. 

IMHO Demonland has a fantastic ability to support and show respect for the players in the podcasts. 

You obviously support people calling our captain a Liar - interesting. But again - each to their own.

He lied through his teeth about the camp as well, notably the player involved in the coalition against it.

Anyway, what do you expect? He's the captain, they're media trained, they're not going to say anything controversial on TV if it means getting a teammate in the [censored].

Again, I have no problems with you having an opinion on our captains character. 

Personally, I can see the difficult situation he has been placed in infront of the cameras - but I'm not going to slur his or the clubs character without getting all the facts. 

Just not sure anybody here has all the facts - but again fine to state your opinions.

Players want respect they can bloody well earn it by performing consistently. I have also stated on here multiple times that we will play finals this year, but i guess that isnt "respectful" enough for you. 

You upset me because you single handedly destroyed Demonology, and refuse to accept responsibility. YOU are to blame.

Inability to follow our players? You mean acting like a smitten Faboi like yourself? 

You will never get respect while you unquestioningly throw yourself at the players feet. You should be ashamed of yourself. No self respecting human being would follow a yes man like you, nor should they.

You are entitled to your opinion. Might want to check your facts - but such is life. 

You think our captain is a liar - sorry, I think thats a tough call on our captain.

I'm not prepared to take the word of a "keyboard warrior" - if you are fine with that I have no problems with that.

Pointing out when someone is lying is not "stating an opinion." It's called "calling out [censored]." I understand why it's done, but I'm going to call it out for the BS it is.

In which way?

I got the impression that he didn't think he needed to go.

Is that what you thought?

His comments:

Has freedom to play

He's a mate! BS

Glad for him

The content would have been discussed before the show - the media guy for Jonesy could have framed a better response for him

    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
