  • 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.

Are both going to Plat (especially Jack with school)

game starts at 5 so schools shouldn't be an issue. LJ is a bit more of a concern for me due to his withdrawal from the all stars game due to "conditioning" hopefully this was just a bit of general soreness and will be right for next friday

On the Casey Scorpions website I notice a change to the match originally scheduled for this Friday being moved to Saturday morning at 10:30am.

It has been moved at the AFL's request so that the empahasis on Friday evening can be on the bushfire fundraisng effort at Telstra Dome.

hopefully the club will have something simple like a signed jumper to raffle off or something to that effect for a couple of dollars a ticket to raise some funds for the bushfire appeal. even a few tin rattlers walking around collecting a few coins. simple and it all helps. just heard 22million raised so far. incredible!! nothing will ever break the aussie spirit!!!!

I want to see it officially. I have not received any email and there is nothing on the MFC web site. I cannot go on Saturday as I play tennis. I was planning to go on Friday evening. If it really has been changed I am majorally [censored] OFF!

It is on the website of the Casey Scorpions.

The Scorps manage the ground, so I reckon they'd know what day a match was going to be played or if the date was changed.

Be thankful, I suggest, that the advice is provided by someone (even if not MFC in the first instance).

Melbourne Intra Club Change of Day/Time

Due to the unforeseen circumstances surrounding the devastating bushfires that have swept through Victoria Saturday, Melbourne's intra club will now be played at 10.30am Saturday the 14th. The game was originally to be played on Friday night, but the AFL has requested all AFL clubs place a huge emphasis on fundraising for the bushfire appeal match at the Telstra dome on Friday night between Essendon and the Western Bulldogs. Casey and Melbourne where only too happy to happy to honour the AFL request so therefore Melbourne's intra club will be Saturday morning. Gold coin donation required at the gate.

In many ways this probably gives the club a better opportunity to promote itself and to promote the facilities at Casey Fields as well as to make a contribution to the bushfire relief appeal. A Saturday morning start at 10.30 am is a reasonable time for supporters (other than those who work on Saturday morning) to get down to Casey.

However, the reasons for the AFL demanding requesting the change are a bit rubbery. An MFC practice game on a Friday evening would hardly attract that many people in the first place and what percentage of that number would be going to watch Essendon and the Bulldogs even if for a worthwhile cause?

Undeeniable, while I totally support the bushfire appeal we have yet another example of the MFC dropping the ball. No Email, Nothing on the web site leave it to the scorpions and the forum to inform. Or were they presuming nobody would turn up? I have taken a day of annual leave in an industry that is in big trouble ATM and probably should not have, so while feeling your frustrations I'm trying to look past my personal feelings. I grew up in the area that the king lake fire started so personally I hope as much money can be raised as no doubt many family's I grew up with have been effected by this event. Hopefully I can re-organize my saturday commitments to make this game.

One positive out of this is for those who believe in the "Friday the 13th curse", maybe its now safe for JW to pull the boots on!

"I'd like it if we could turn the practice match into a Casey Community fund raising event. Saturday Morning is a more family-friendly time to do so as well"

very well put. HG45

Just got mine as well, I will retract some of my last post re MFC dropping the ball.

Yeah lighten up on the criticism (can't believe the whingeing on 'Ology about this). You'll set off RFlowerwing and Hazy again how this never happened under Paul "Sunshine and Flowers" Gardner.

TrainLink to Cranbourne East scheduled to depart Cranbourne Railway Station at 9:51am and get to the Casey Complex (where the new pool is being built) at 10:01am.

That leaves 29 minutes to amble along the road to the east (or left as you go out onto the main road) some 700 metres to Casey Fields. But just ask the bus driver for the direction if you are not sure.

    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,
