  • 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.

Red or white, what do you prefer?

White, it looks better. The aim of a clash jumper is to provide an alternative to the colours you usually wear.

But I'd be happy with either.

I'd vote for a lump of dog [censored] on a potato sack over that horrific thing we wore last year.

White jersey got my vote out of the two.

Just looks better! Red one seems too lost and training jersey feel.

Saying that, i wish the club would just grow a pair and make a decision and not give a voting system as we all know how it ended up last time.

The advertising of why white is an option is a sign of it being favoured by the guys running the show.

I don't like to, but I prefer the White also.

Also, why was there an article saying we'd revealed our clash jumper when the club is not conducting a poll seeing which one to use?

I think the White is a classier jumper (if you can call it that) and hopefully would sell more. The return of the invincible whites, only this time it would be the "Invincible Demons"

"Saying that, i wish the club would just grow a pair and make a decision and not give a voting system as we all know how it ended up last time."

If that's it then that's it. But none of this "members voted for this" fast and loose crapola.

However. On the areas where you can engage your membership, on something as fundamental as the branding of the club, wouldn't you do so? And no, a poll on a website most assuredly does not count. In fact it's at the top of the list of reasons for the 'result'. Along with communication.

The other thing is, we've already had a red and blue clash strip with a demon in the middle, perhaps we should look to a new jumper (or use both, i see no problem using three)

I prefered the old red clash jumper rather than this one. Personally I dont like the new demon logo thats printed on the top.

The new red one seems to be lacking another element, while the white one has the blue 'V' which seems to look alot less like a training top.

Both these jumpers look good and don't be supprised if we see both this year. The white Jumper we will wear against Essendon, I remember when we had the old mainly red jumper against Essendon you could tell who was who.

Since the option was thrown to the members it has been 50/50 and couldn't be split. For me the red is plain and the white looks better.

I really like both these jumpers. We'll wear red against Carlton and Port, white against Essendon.

Happy with either (depending on who we play).... definately no clash now

    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
