  • 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.

So who is this big, in form team we’re supposed to beat?

Sydney? Nope. 

There are none, unless West Coast want to meet us down the park during the week everyone can shut the [censored] up.

The first upset has already occurred. I'm upset that Carlton are part of another televised Friday night game. It's an outrage!

Crows fans will be really happy.  They've just been tipped out of the eight by a bee's and replaced by .... Port Adelaide.

Does seem a silly fixture considering Carlton lost their last game to Sydney in Rnd 23 by 81pts with Buddy kicking more goals than Carlton. Melbourne were already clearly on the up last year.

Afl are not the brightest bunch at times.

Bolton is an absolute genius.  He has created a brand of footy that, most weeks, is able to pull down the opposition to their rubbish level.  They flood back, tackle hard and do anything to play boring, drab footy that might help them get a result.  Swans are playing right into their trap at the minute.

And why wouldn’t you book that in every Friday night?

Yep. While we’re getting bored scoring 300 in 2 games.

*Melbourne smash blues to half time, narrative all about blues playing poor footy and Melbourne not beating anyone of note*

*blues lead Sydney by a point at half time, narrative about how well blues are playing and Sydney are also an afl team playing tonight*

I get that the media doesn’t trust us yet and that Sydney have been a champion team for years but what I don’t get is the hypocrisy. I guess it’s just anything for a story huh?

They don't count because they were against teams worse than us.  

Honestly, it's the most absurd paradox ever.  God help us if we ever end up on top of the ladder.

Was Dale Thomas ever a good player? Struggling to remember but he's been [censored] for his whole time at Carlton.

Before his ankle injury, he was a fantastic player. I know a Collingwood board member thought he would never play again when he left, giving an indication on how screwed he was.

Such a high quality game they brains in commentary are discussing if everyone in the world has been winded...

 

Dale Thomas was a gun in 09 an 10.

Some very important umpiring decisions preventing a Blues beat-up by the looks of this

It's just been a regulation case of a crap team bringing a good one down to their level.  Carlton are awful, Sydney are starting to break the shackles.

Well we need to keep the swans % down, but what was a good 3 quarters by carlton to make it an interesting game has now blown out to a swans win and boring last quarter.

Carlton kicked 4 points in a row at the start of the quarter. Most of them were getable.

They are awful. This game plan is never going to win games. Playing kick to kick at halfback? I  still think there's been some crucial frees keeping them this close. Can see Sydney blowing them away in the last.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
