  • 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.

I don't understand why they didn't wait to announce both co-sponsors.

Surely that's what you would expect where you're going to run with a co-sponsorship situation?

think about it..we announce the first major sponsor now and they cop a heap of publicity and then the next sponsor gets equal publicity..secondary announcement means that the companies dont share the spotlight. Smart marketing ploy.

I agree... two bites of the pie :) Twice the publicity for the club. Plaudits to all concerned.

Hi Demon fans,

I'm with LD Wholesale Tyres, the Hankook distributors in Vic/Tas and new major sponsor for the MFC! Thought it might be a good idea to join the number 1 Demon forum in case any of you have any questions regarding Hankook or LD Wholesale - where to get them, which tyres to choose etc

We are very excited about the opportunity to be officially involved with the Demons and look forward to a long and prosperous association.

Hope to se some of you at family day on Sunday and at the G throughout the year!

Go Dees!

On behalf of not only Demonlanders, but all Melbourne supporters I'd love to welcome your company to the club. Your sponsorship has come at a unique time in the clubs history. We're a proud group of battlers and this is the die-hards coal face. Hankook has just adopted a group of very thankful group of loyal customers who are very grateful that you have decided to sponsor the greatest football club in the world.

Go Dees!

Lovely sentiment and all, but you might want to spell the company name correctly ;)

I think it is also great that Hankook has (reportedly) since 1992 advertised at the MCG. Hopefully this will strengthen the association of the Dees being the true tennants of the MCG. Even in non-MFC games when people see any Hancook signage at the MCG (assuming they continue) it will give a link to the Dees - some sort of reverse advertising if you like ...or am I just getting carried away now lol. I didn't realise that Hancook had involvement in "grass-roots" footy in the Casey area either so this is also an asset (and probably contributor to our situation with them sponsoring MFC).

To all those Posters on here who a few weeks back REALLY GOT STUCK IN TO STYNESY & THE BOARD....I expect a full apology. Your Behavior was completely childish & disrespectful.

The New Sponsorship deals along with the Re affiliation with the MCC just maybe the envy of many victorian clubs in the Future.

We have 3 Years in which to Pull ourselves up the ladder to increase our exposure. It all starts Today...

Could we possibly not ruin this perfectly good thread with personal tantrums?

I have deleted the relevant posts, so if you want to continue your personal chat I suggest you get a room.

Thanks you.

I think you missed some:

bloody fantastic! I just literally ran down the house waking everyone up to tell them....much to the delights of my parents lol. Maybe all those who bagged Jimmy and Co. can offer a bit of an apology?

........ And another sub-major sponsor on the way. The combined total will be greater than the revenue gained from the Primus deal. Also, I think you will find a another former player from the 90's was heavily involved in brokering the deal.

Can't wait to hear what the ardent critics of Jimmy and Schwabby have to say now.

But then none of these posters are willing to name names so I guess they aren't having personal tantrums. I didn't bother replying to them until I was named personally.

Let the record show that I was not the one looking to drag this thread off the rails and into a personal arguement - but neither will I back down from one if challenged.

Let the record show also that whilst I am as glad as the next supporter that Hankook have got behind the mighty D's, I stand by everything that I have said on the matter.

This is not about pointing the finger or blaming anyone, I just don't think anyone really needs to scroll through endless pointless posts when they open such an important topic (or any topic for that matter).

I didn't think you were blaming me and I agree with you completely about the pointless posts. I just wanted to set the record straight because you deleted the relevant posts.

Perhaps someone might like to start a thread specifially about why they disagree with my views/don't like my attitude. I'd do it myself but I don't want to seem self-important.

Perhaps we should continue this discussion via PM so that we don't make more pointless posts?

Did a rudimentary check of the other half's car last weekend after complaints of 'running a bit rough'.

Apart from 1.5 litres of oil and topping up the water and brake fluid and cleaning the plugs I checked the tyres. Could hardly get a match in.

Hankook here she comes. A St. Kilda supporters money now well spent!

    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,
