  • 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.

At lunch today the new President Jim Stynes stated the new jumper will be RED will a demon profile. No white. No silver. With RED we will only clash with one other team (Sydney ??? or Brisbane) but he was adamant NO WHITE!!!!

Then what's with the 2 alternatives we've been voting on at melbournefc.com.au?

Despite rumours to the contrary..there is NO clash between these jumpers. Some may point out the obvious syd melb yoke similarity. Amazingly these teams have played for decades without incident. The mind will ignore the red and distinguish one team as white..and the other as blue..No clash !!

Personally I have never seen any problem between the Fitzroy/Lion guernsey and our trad red and blue !!

The whole "clash" theory has been conjured up by the AFL to give teams an excuse to make another jumper that increase public merchandise sales slightly. They have another product to sell.

Yeah, but if that is the case calabrese, and I don't doubt it, why do the AFL insist on jumpers the fans hate?

Try telling Vlad's lap dog A.Anderson that one. I think he needs his eyes checked. I wonder what they have in store when Jim says "with a Blue demon profile", got any ideas BB? Clint? Perhaps the recent Demon. Maybe BB's avatar!!! AS long as it's a RED clash strip - and not white - I'll be :)

i think the swans should be made to wear whit shorts for away games, im a bit of a traditionalist and hate it when teams play against sydney in syndey, but wear their home shorts- i dont care how crap it looks on the swans, bring back the white shorts!!! like geelong last year in the Gf wore white shorts when they were the 'home side'

Sydney dont wear white shorts & havent since Lockett was seen in white shorts. When Melb have played Syd over the last few years the away team wear hooped socks.

With Jim saying that we will wear Red, maybe the board & the club have listened to the faithfull! (One can only hope)

If we wear blue shorts, and Sydney wear white shorts, there won't be a clash.

Can one of you bubbleheads out there "knock up a mock up" for us on your computational DEvice, so we can see what Nudge is imagining? :mellow:

I'd do it, but I'm too busy with Bub, QueenC and Rhino, nockin our heads against Bubs brick wall, on another matter !! :wacko:

If this is true about the red taking over, then it's a very good sign.

When the silver came in, it was one of a limted set of options and no consideration was given to other feedback, we ended up with the 'best' of a very bad lot.

Sounds like a bit of feedback came through (amazing what a few events with members where the president talks to enthusiastic supporters can do) and it was decided the white just wasn't going to work.

I'm cautiously thinking this is phenomenal news. Leadership flexibility and responsiveness to the fans! OMG!

    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
