    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.

Mick McGuane doesn't = champion player though.

If it is McGuane, it's hardly worth dancing in the streets..............a big name like Buckley, Roo or Hird would be though!

Buckley.........how good would that be........could he teach our young blokes a thing or two!

Would be stoked if it was Roo, a real AFL champion who embodies everything I'd like to see in our players and also knows a thing or two about winning premierships.

Buckley would also be an excellent choice, except you know he's out the door the second Malthouse leaves Lexus Centre.

If this is true & Mick McGuane is now on our coaching staff I have lost total faith in our club.

I watched this bloke @ close range coach Balwyn Tigers last year & he is nothing more than a

confusing,crazed, ranting, phsyco. The young blokes couldn't understand a word he screamed all year.

Shown the door after one year. I don't care what local team he coached to a flag in 2008, him NOT being @ Balwyn

in 2008 was a major contributing factor in them winning the EFL division one flag.

Pray this isn't true!

Yep, Buckley could teach how to get outside possessions, and how to demand your team-mate give the ball to you.

One of the greatest receivers I ever saw.

Far be it from me to defend a player from Collingwood, however I consider your opinions on Buckley as a player to be just a little off the mark.

The source on 'ology is wheres_jacka. Anyone who knows Demonology knows he is the biggest bullshit artist on the internet. He makes Yze_Magic look like Nostradamus.

If wheres_jacka said it's true, you can bet your house that it isn't.

Thanks for some perspective Nasher, because if that news was on the money I was shattered.

Is the same McGuane who then coached the Balwyn Tigers seniors team in the Eastern Football League Division 1 in 2007. He came to the club at a tough time as they move into the highly rated EFL competition 1st Division. McGuane's coaching saw Balwyn into the finals in their first year in the competition (looked up on the internet) He has a good record maybe he got the young players to take their nappies off and with a lot of big recruiting is the reason they improved......

I dont give a flying F--k what you looked up on the internet.

I listened to most Pre-game , 1/4 time & 3/4 time speeches & the bloke was a raving lunatic.

If he lands @ The Demons we are seriously doomed.

I think the amount of $$$$ thorwn about had more to do with the transition.

As someone who has had contact with people who have been in McGuane's orbit he would be the last person on earth you would want around a young developing list. Unless you wanted to instill a culture of heavy drinking and gambling that is.

Surely it would have to be ruck coach as it is the only coaching position we need to fill, no?

And if its touted as a "true champion of the game" ruckman then we can sort of compile a rough list...

Shaun Rhen?

Corey McKernan?

Paul Salmon?

after writing out a long list of retired players that are no chance, I think it'll have to be Luke Darcy.

He's very well spoken, seems insightful when doing tv commentary, I understand he has held a position with the AIS (i think)

I'd be excited to have him, would definitely be a worthwhile candidate.

AND i recall reading an article saying that nearing the end of the season Jamar was insecure about his spot in the side & had heard Darcy compliment him during a match replay.

Jamar subsequently got in contact with Darc & met up with him a few times to get help on furthering his career.

I know that is meaningless, but it at least shows Darcy already has a relationship with our main ruckman.

Having said all of that, Scotty West would be great, but just doesn't seem to make sense at this stage.

i think if the club was able to get another more experienced midfield coach, Mark Williams will happily step back into his former role... would be great if it's true and we get scott west...

I doubt we'd announce a press confrence to welcome a ruckman to our coaching staff, where ruck coaches are usually part time...

and even if it is a ruck coach, no way Luke Darcy... he's doing way to well with channel 10 to head for a coaching career at this stage...

    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
