  • 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.


Collingw&%$



Recommended Posts

I just watched an incredible game from Subiaco in which Collingw&%$ gave away any possibility of making the double chance by losing to Fremantle which probably gave Nick Naitanui to Port Adelaide (almost as bad a faux pas as our win over Carlton last year?).

Carlton and Richmond have every reason to complain about being robbed of their chances to make the finals by virtue of the AFL handing out such an easy fixture for Collingw&%$ who might now have to travel interstate for the second week in a row to play their first final.

Hope they do. Will lose. Trash. FILTH! ;)

I'm glad they both missed out. Neither side has made the 8 since 2001. I'd like to see them both pass our 23 years in the finals wilderness suffered from 1964 to 1987. :)

On that performance, the AFL must reconsider its policy of giving the Pies a Friday night game virtually every second or third week during the season.

Gold Coast Magpies.

How's the whinging that comes from this football club. Far out, worse than the Poms. They kick everyone else when they're down, had one bad incident and then had a whinge, now this comes from their insipid performance;

“Quite frankly I think, given our vulnerability of where we’re going to sit on the ladder, we were extremely tired after a very, very solid, emotional, gut-busting month.

“I’ve no doubt that there is a psychological let-down after (big) games, particularly if you’ve got a lot of young players.

“No question about that because they’re human, they’re going to have the frailty of human nature.”

Straight from the coach. Too funny. The filth are a joke, if it wasn't for Eddie and their deluded fan base, they'd be nowhere. If i were the Pies i'd seriously look at what Malthouse is doing with them

He's taken an extremely average list which, on personnel, is probably in the bottom half dozen in the league, to a Prelim final last year and then to finals again this year. imo got he's been the best coach as far as getting the most out of his list goes

Not when they have "mentally fatiguing months" Eastie.

They've got the best facilities, and through their drafting have largely dug their own hole. Pendlebury is a gun, Thomas is a good player, Heath Shaw is a gun, but aside from that i don't think there is much in their team. After 2 years out of finals and then an elimination final in '06, i was hardly surprised that a team with such a good draw was able to make the finals.

They were lucky to beat W.C. in the Semi last year. How long do you give a coach who hasn't won you a Premiership? This has N.D. written all over it

I think Collingw&%$ will bring back Didak and Shaw for the first final as additional punishment.

Fast Eddie could argue this is in keeping with recent announcements regarding honesty.

Malthouse can continue to whinge about big game blues.

Everyone with any involvement in footballs wider community is happy. Unless you be toothless.

Wasn't that what I was saying? Their playing list hasn't got much going for it yet they were a kick away from beating a team deemed to be on the verge of untouchable and playing in last years granny

And the thing with Mick Malthouse is that he's not even a nice guy. At least Neale Daniher had that going for him.

Kangaroos = Melbourne 2004

Collingwood = Melbourne 2005

Bulldogs = Melbourne 2006

And for good measure,

Carlton 2008 = Carlton 2004

I'll be offering a full analysis of why I think that last point (other than I HATE Carlton) once I have the round 22 stats, and can make some pretty charts of youth and injuries over the season etc...

I hope the Saints get up today by 15 goals and go ahead of Adelaide on percentage. That would give the filth an away game v Adelaide to start the finals series with.

Playing the Devils' Advocate. Now can you also "hope" : -

1/ That Collingwood never win another premiership.

2/ That the Dees win a Premiership by 2012. Please.

;)

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
