    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.

It's like the penny has dropped with him. His positioning and decision making since his return has improved out of sight. I can't recall him getting caught in no man's land in recent times which was my biggest criticism of him.

In full flight he does remind me of a couple of old blasts from the past. Gary "Crazy Horse" Cowton and our own Russell "Rhino" Richards. One was a bloody good player. The other could have been

How good has he been since hes come back to the side!? I've always rated him and was shocked how he wasn't in the team earlier on the year. Fast, powerful, courage, 2nd efforts are just some of t

For the majority here who could not see Frost’s value to the team, it is a cop-out now to suggest he is a different footballer now. He is still prone to the odd poor kick, and god forbid, holding

I think the big difference with Frost is he is no longer running around like a chook with no head. When it's on he goes. When it's not he now has the patience/composure to find a better option

Frosty has done an amazing job down back. Well done Frosty?

Used to love Slamming Sammy Kekovich in the 70’s now I have another Slamming Sam. 

Did a great job today but has to be supported in the finals so he can play to his strengths.

Fast, powerful, courage, 2nd efforts are just some of the traits thats really stood out this year!

On ya Frosty!

With ya. I was so relieved when he got back into the first team. He really counterbalances Oscar's lethargy.

Let's be honest, he was thrown under the bus by a lot of supporters; i've got the sneaking suspicion that supporters claiming now is he's a much improved player, are doing so to validate their harsh criticisms. He has improved yes, but so have heaps of our players.

Make no mistake, we would be 2nd on the ladder if Sam Frost had been picked when he should have.

Understatement of the year, amazing how you get shot down for calling for Frosty before Lever goes down.

Now all the Pole smokers have come out of the woods, stroking the Frostmiesters bits.

Was going “oh god oh [censored]” for 98% of this passage of play 

I've been going oh god oh (something) for 98% of his career. Something about how he'll gather and automatically run off his man at every opportunity. TMac actually did this a lot too when he played as a defender...

So I guess what I'm saying is... Frost to kick 50 goals a year in a few seasons?

I’m going to persist in reminding all the Frost knockers how bloody stupid they were and how little they really understand the development of a tall afl player because they were relentless in their bagging of him. 

There are also some fools who have been relentless in their posting that Jordan Lewis should never play again.  Boy has Jordan made them look stupid!

They must all be embarrassed by their poor judgement.

Huge love for Frost, and works well in combination with Hibberd, he also has some go in him, puts a hurt on the opposition with his body contact. His speed totally destroys the forward 50 pressure of the opposition, we don't leak runs of goals with him in the team. With Lever back next year (who can rotate with Lewis off the bench we will be Lions '01-'03 like with our rebound.

Our backline next year will be OMac, Lever, Hibberd, Frost, Lewis, Jetta and Salem, Wagner floating back, we’re gonna be a gun side for 3-4 years

And that is, by far and away, our weakest third on the ground. ?

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
