  • 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 HOPE there are no technical problems for the Sunday team this week (I'm told the problem has been fixed - but I've heard that one before too many times in this industry!!!)

wonder if wheels kicked any, i told him last night he needed to so he could play 1s in the forwardline

Wheels certainly did kick one when he drifted out of defence but he's definitely a backman and probably a bit stiff to miss out on the 150 Heroes at that! He played well today and should be back in the AFL next week.

must come in next week...

Chris Johnston is just starting to play like a man.

He's starting to come of age. Be patient Johnno, your finally really starting to step-up to the plate & becoming a leader. It's a pleasure to see you play these days.

Pendlebury that played is Scotts older brother I believe. Bailey has said that players in form will be given their chance. Without seeing the games CJ has been BOG 3 of the last 4 weeks I believe and must be offered an opportunity. Can someone confirm where he is being played? Martin in the bests and Zomer kicking 3 are also promising signs for the future.

Valenti - was quite good. I don't think he was as dominant as what he has been in the past (at VFL level).

S. Martin - He was good at FB, beat his man easily and made one or two runs up the ground.

Maric - didn't see a lot of the ball, kicked a nice snap goal in the first and went close again in the last. Still needs more time to dominate at this level.

Jamar - Played really well i thought. Got his fair share of posessions, made some terrible mistakes by hand, but a majority of his posessions were effective.

Cheney - Didn't see a lot of him, came into the game in the last qtr i thought.

Meeson - Was okay. Quite agile for a big man. Jamar took the honours but i think Meeson will improve to be a better player than Jamar.

C. Johnson - BOG. Made one or two mistakes but his disposal usually was excellent.

Buckley - I thought wasn't too bad. Was good enough to be recalled.

Whelan - A step above this level. The way he played he may as well have played for Melbourne.

Carroll - Just a game from Chopper.

Weetra - Back to Sandy two's, was on the ground the whole time and barely touched it.

Holland and Newton did not play. Which means Holland may play tomorow.

The problem is that his form never seems to translate over to AFL level.

Jamar is the same becuase he is better suited to the VFL style of football.

he's never been in this kind of form though has he? i can't ever remember it... his form since being droped...

Round 5 V Bendigo: 4th best to Summers, Valenti, Crowe

Round 6 V Williamstown: Not named in best.

Round 7 V Tasmania: Best on ground.

Round 8 V Northern Bullants: 2nd best on ground to Yze.

Round 9 v Collingwood: Best on Ground.

Form like this needs to be rewarded. And I believe Chris will justify his selection once he finally pulls on the red and blue...

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
