  • 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.

How absolutely horrible, annoying and pathetic was the chant “USA, USA” when Cox got the ball.

That alone was enough to turn me to the ?

What a beautiful thing - the filth nutted in the last moments. Melbourne must learn from that. The weagles were jumped and trailed by 5 goals yet fought their way back - that's what premiers do.

He's a class act 'chook'...pity he has to coach Coliingwood. Taking the time to console the cheer squad members before the game is the measure of the man.

Relieved that the Pies blew it. They were outplayed for three quarters and it just needed the Weagles to put it on the board.

Happiest mostly because J Howe does not get a medal. He and his manager made it impossible for us to keep him, and we were screwed as a result so screw you Jeremy.

Thinking the same thing, during the second and third quarters of the game. Wondered if Gil the Dill and the umps would dare?

I must be the only person who thought the umps were actually ok. They kept the whistle in the picket but it seemed mostly consistent, the block the resulted in Sheeds goal was probably the most influential non decision and I’d say it was incorrect.

An absolute belter of a game of footy.

The umpiring was great in that they did not panic with decisions and were not whistle happy (like Razer & Nichols). This allowed the game to ebb & flow.

I thought Ryan's tackling in the 2nf half was brilliant and Shuey was a worthy NS Medallist

I totally agree with Monoccular. Totally cringeworthy, and annoying.

The fact that he is American hardly justifies the chant. I don't recall "Ireland/Ireland" being chanted when Jimmy or Sean played. Or "Sudan/Sudan" being chanted for Daw.

Aliir/Kenya, Johanissen/South Africa.

The filth supporters constantly booing/calling "ball" was also annoying.

The old man just texted me to ask who won more finals this year. Collingwood or Melbourne. As we know, it was Melbourne with 2. Collingwood also only managed to beat two top 8 teams for the year. Staggering.

Collingwood also won two finals and beat three top 6 teams, including us.

They don’t understand the rules of the game. Also why does one boo when a player on the other side is kicking for goal? It’s a legitimate attempt to score, there’s nothing unfair about it....

 

by by the way, He WAS North American, once.

So here’s a question, what did West Coast change/improve to make them go from average final 8 team to winning a premiership? What can we learn from them (given they too suffered a humiliating defeat in the finals last year)?

Losing 2015 was a factor. With Darling and Kennedy up forward they trust them and kick to them (and why not) take those 2 out of the side and they are a shell

On looks he should be playing for Wangaratta, and i'd put $20 that he has the highest skinfolds in the league, but boy o boy what a gun. He is everything Rance is hyped to be.

I agree. And what's great about it is that in 30 years' time Pie fans will still be complaining about it the way they do about 1979 (Wayne Harmes) and 1964 (Ball up rather then Pie free in front of goal with seconds left).

Looks like Lloyd from dumb and dumber. The least likely looking footballer in the AFL.  

Absolute gun of the highest order.

Not testing Mcgoverns ribs out was a mistake and the block allowing sheed to mark should have been a free - holding maynard out and then not flying for the ball is against the rules I thought.

Have a lot of pie friends , over the years have learnt not to communicate after a close loss in a gf.  Work mates are a different matter. 

As been noted the  non call of the block will be shown as much as the wayne harmes boundary line knock on. Ill be hearing about for years to come.

    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
