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.

Wasnt the fanciest of wins, but boy does it feel good to put those campaigners back in their box.

Good team effort to come back from a super sloppy start.

Horrendous umpiring. Really needs to be looked at. That call on fritsch was the worst ive seen in a long timem

 

 

Does anyone know what that was for?

Can’t believe the ball went straight off Bugg’s boot a whole 4 times. 

After the game they interviewed Bernie.  He reckons he took Buggy under his wing with goal kicking practice this past week, and so (very humbly...not) takes full credit!  Gotta love Bernie!

GO THE MIGHTY DEES!

TOP 4 YOU BEAUTY!

We definitely have the best ruckman in the comp by a country mile.

Sorry to Wagner, Bugg and Salem they were fantastic today.

Who were the clowns that wanted Lewis dropped?

Does Jones ever play a bad game?

I’m always very hard on him and always questioned his selection but Wagner was terrific today, sublime kicking! I was very impressed.

 

umpires were unbelievably bad, if the commentators are saying they have had a bad day you know the have been farken shizenhousin.

A great game from Lewis but he was stuffed right at the end

he will need good management through the games this year

a finals win or two might finish him up go dees !!

Ben Browns stats look inflated. 3/4 of his goals were from frees. (One where he faked it and another earnt by his team mate).

I'd be lying if I said OMac inspired me with confidence, but he did a very good job again today, and you are spot on about Brown's goals.

He was great today.

His problem has been going to ground and when he stops that he is still very good.

Who was that f!0g who said Bugg and kent couldnt kick goals from set shots...

I don't think it was me but it definitely sounds like something I would've said before.

Wagner was very good too. I was extremely critical of his selection in r1 but he's hardly put a foot wrong since halftime time vs the Cats. Hopefully he settles in because he seems to have a good boot on him.

Gawn was just incredible. Incredible everywhere. One of his best ever games. 

Loved the chains of composure with some of our younger players. 

Jones was great, good captains game. 

Hogan 2nd BOG for me behind Gawn. 

Can’t believe the ball went straight off Bugg’s boot a whole 4 times. 

Love  tubby Kent, welcome back. 

Frost v Hunt selection was the correct one. 

May North [censored] off and never beat us again. 

 

 

Yep..a lot to smile about.

Hard to see who comes out with a lot of talent sidelined.

True.  Think he found a team mate with pretty much every kick.  Was an excellent display.

Sidebottom got a fine for his sling tackle last night. Anderson wasn't hurt so I'd be livid if Frost got a week.

Jetta might be in trouble though. From the replay looks like he decides to bump and then appears to make high contact.

The 'hoodoo' is dead, despite that mob having 26 on the park.  Proud Demon tonight!!

You are obviously including the boundary umpire who paid out, when Harmes clearly marked it inside the line.

Umpire 26 should never get another game. Jono Brown summed it up well with " the umpires had a very bad game today ". Roos was pretty scathing and Eddie and Sandy said a few times they were stunned.

On the other hand we fought hard for a great win.

I cracked the sads 10 minutes in after they got 4 goals up. Can anyone tell me how much we lost by? ;)

Decent win and showed that the past is that. The past.

Best game I've seen Gawny play. You could see that they got some momentum up when he went to the bench exhausted.

I think Jordie summed it up brilliantly when he said that the issue is with some of our younger stagers needing to know when to slow it down. They did it perfectly in that last quarter.

I was also encouraged by the reaction at the siren. While I reckon that it was wise to acknowledge the elephant in the room, the fact the boys were happy but didn't go overboard was reassuring. 

In other news, I deleted my Facebook account 2 weeks ago (with the deletion becoming permanent tomorrow).  For the entire time that I used it (I created the account at the end of 2006), we never beat North. Maybe there is a coincidence to be found there?

And finally, if there was anyone who has a license to be pessimistic, it's you @old dee

It is, as they say in pro wrestling, your gimmick. ;)

    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

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
