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.

I love a beer, but hate a hangover like the one I have now.

Lost my phone last night.

It is such a perfect day here in Melbourne for good footy. 

Like so many, l have learned to restrain and contain any sense of confidence. The scars of failing to do so are many and deep. 

Yet somehow l have lost my strength today. Against an  injury ridden Doggies team with the Bont (who broke my heart at Dome all those years ago) out of the side and Boyd, l sense a very big win. 

Our blokes know the score from here and know they have the talent around them. This game will be played above the shoulders and l think the boys will be determined to right their wrongs and make a statement. 

Dees by 63 (or my last scar from the Saints game will bleed me out). 

By the way, it is really great to hear so many going out of their way to attend today. It will be a small crowd but let's make a lot of noise. Good luck to us all. ?

At the MCG where we struggle and lost to the Saints just two weeks ago.

Today, aside from a a win, I want to see a modified gameplan that works on the G'.  It will take us to the next level.  Its kind of important to be able to win on your home ground.

And the ground where most of the finals/grand finals are at... HUGE problem if we don't find a way that works there, and quickly.

Going to the game but not sure if its possible to walk away happy. A win doesnt help our chances of making finals because I can't see us beating any teams above us on the ladder. Another game against a bottom 8 team proves nothing and the loss to st.kilda still hurts.

Yeah it does.  

Unless you meant a loss doesn't help our chances of making finals.

Congratulations Doc, you old fart!!  (You're just shy of 3 mths older than me!) 

Used to love you thumping the ball out of CHB to set me up for some of my goals back in the day!  We were part of a great team back then.  Here's hoping the new breed can replicate it! )

Have we got Razor again? Surely not?!

It’s ok, my wife’s family all support dogs and hate razor more than we do (and think he hates the dogs in return) so it will be quite the conundrum for ‘ol (insert favourite insult here)!

Rayza Ray was a contributing factor to the Bulldogs 2016 run into and during the finals. Loves a Bulldog. 

Never said my wife’s family weren’t completely one eyed which of course they are. Still think they got a bad run in 2016 ????‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️

Heading to the ground with my youngest (nearly 3) today for her first AFL game. She has her demon backpack packed already and is packing her snacks into little ziplock bags, never seen her so organized!

My unsolicited advice: make sure she has the best day ever, even it the MFC are poo.

    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.

    DEMONLAND: Good evening, Demon fans and welcome to the Demonland 2024 Grand Final Podcast … It’s been a beautiful last day of September and how sweet it is to bring you our coverage of all things that matter about the great Demon resurgence which we’ve seen over the past six or seven months.
