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.

Shortly we will be migrating to an upgraded plan for the hosting of Demonland. We are hoping that this will alleviate the instances where Demonland has crashed alot recently. I won't bore you with the specifics but the change will of course take Demonland offline for a little bit. Hopefully it is only for a short time but I am not certain when it will be done or how long it will take. Hopefully it does not impact discussion of this weeks match.

Unfortunately this is going to more than double what we already pay to get Demonland online so if you are keen to help us out (and it's certainly not mandatory that you do) you can do so in the following ways.

Take out a Demonland Subscription - not only are you helping Demonland out but all the advertisements that a littered throughout the site will disappear.

Donate to Demonland - If you already subscribe to Demonland and want to contribute something extra you can help us out this way.

Purchase some Demonland Merchandise - look cool and help Demonland out in the process.

I don't like having to put my hand out and I and the site will survive if you don't but if you enjoy Demonland and want to (and can) contribute those are the way you can do it.

Hopefully this will solve the constant issues that we have been having and you can continue enjoying this site without further interruption.

As always all funds will go towards paying for the hosting & the annual forum software fees and if there is anything left over I always like to pay it forward to Nasher whose help is invaluable.

Go Dees.

Andy

Think I have current membership which is the best investment ever made.

Donated last year to recognise your efforts and maintain my enjoyment of the best investment ever made.

I have referenced this site as one of the best performing applications I have ever used.

Happy to donate again to continue.

Please provide a bsb and account number to effect transfer of small donation which is all I can afford

Thanks guys. Hopefully, the down time will take place in the middle of the night and not while there’s a game in progress involving the Demons.?

Migration is apparently taking place at midnight tonight. It shouldn't impact the game unless there are complications. ?

Thanks to all those who have contributed. It is much appreciated.

Hi, I became a member years ago with suggested $100 contribution, which removed the ads and all was good. But recently after one of the crashes, I was unable to access the site for a week or more, long story short, I had to create a new account with a different email address. And of course the ads returned. So Andy let me know the account details and I’ll forward funds over. 

It’s worthwhile reminding us every now and again of those recurring costs that have to be paid and the free expertise provided by Nasher. You all do an amazing job! What would I do with all those hours in my week without Demonland!

If you PM your old username perhaps I merge your current account with the old one and you do not have to double dip. Your original donation is much appreciated so no need to have to pay again.

Support these comments entirely, well done so far and in particular, your message to 'users' related to DL needs.

Out of curiosity, how much does it cost to maintain the site? Does Demonland get any revenue? I’m happy to donate when I get back home 

We get revenue from the ads on the site. The costs vary but have grown exponentially as the site has grown.

perhaps you could put up a target figure like you did last year. (Or was it the year before).

$100 on the way in the next day or so.

This is a great site as I have so often said.

I've updated the donation target on the side (or towards the bottom of the pages on mobile).

It used to alert you when your yearly sub was coming up and then if you don't pay by that time you get downgraded back to a member but I think there is a issue with the system and there is no renewal so effectively you have been an annual member since Feb 2016.

I'm looking in to fixing it but I will manually downgrade those Annuals that are no longer in their year of subscription.

You'll probably start seeing ads soon. sorry about that. :P

I've made an update. Let me know if it reinvoiced you to continue as an Annual member. Actually let me know what the process is. It shouldn't automatically charge you but let me know if it does. In fact let me know what happens as I'm not exactly sure of the process. I think it gives you a grace period and then if you don't pay by that time it puts you back as a normal member.

Thank you. We continually try to improve the look and feel and ease of use. Unfortunately of late we've had some hiccups and in hopefully adding some muscle will improve the experience.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
