  • 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.

Your ultimate Grand Final experience

Vs Essendon just because of mates giving Melbourne so much [censored], so much that it made me put 100bux on the line wed win one before them.

And hopefully Brocy as captain playing really good football proving that the speed of the game hasn't taken over!

It would have to be a close win against Carlton. With Meesen (who no-one else had faith in) and either Spencer or Johnson absolutely carving up Kruezer who they tanked for and Warnock who was seduced by there dirty money and false delsuions of grandeur. Moloney for Captain to erase the hurt of missing out on Geelongs success. Morton for Norm Smith as final insult to their tanking.

I'd want to beat the arrogance that is Carlton. They also started our premiership drought, after stealing Barassi from us. Since I want Aaron to be our next captain, I voted Bails and Flash holding the cup. Although, wouldn't mind someone like Jack Watts either. ;)

Ok, coffee break, we're almost at the weekend and yes it's a another poll. Just thought I'd ask Demonlanders this: -

If "The Mighty Demons" were playing in the AFL Grand Final next year (of course hypothetically :lol: ; but nevertheless possible), which team would you want The Dees to play and win the Premiership against?

So think about who you might despise the most, etc....

I have a sneaky suspicion who the most voted team may be, but I won't influence voting by alluding to the team I have in mind. Vote away....

Also, think about who you would like to see lift the Premiership Cup on the victory dias. For the sake of the exercise it must be Dean Bailey and someone.

FootNote: Hey Swamp fox, I've put in *West Sydney & *Gold Coast, just in case you complain about another poll! ;)

**Did you want me to include a Tassie Team as well? Well I did just in case the poll copped flak! :lol:

Living in Perth, I would love to beat the Weagles in a 100 point thrashing. Might just keep them off the Back page for a day or two. You should read the crap over here,eg. Back page headlines, "So and so of the Eagles in doubt with a split finger nail on his little finger" and so on and so on. And some of my Melbourne mates ask me, because I now live in the west, if I now barrack for the Eagles! Ha funny ha! Once a Demon ALWAYS a Demon!

Vs. C'wood. We win by two points, the decider being a set shot by Greeny after the siren (from 50m. on the boundary, of

course!). The thought of it takes me back to '64. I'm not sure the heart could handle it this time around, but geez, I'd die a happy bloke.

Haha, I'm an idiot.

I saw the "1" in the Bullies column and didn't even see your post.

I used to live in the west and I have a big soft spot for the Bullies...perhaps because I've moved away?

If i had a preference it would be Hawthorn because of the rivalry we had in the 80's early 90's which the hawks had the better of mainly due to the 88 premiership. I hated them with a passion and still do. Bombers would be next for me. Ironic these two were the ones that beat us in the two GFs and that is probably the underlining reason why. Still hate the collingwood and carltons. The bottom line for me really is i dont care who it is i just want a premiership.

Interesting to see Collingwood is the preferred loser of any Demon Premiership. Sure it would be great to beat them, but jeez, going into a Grand Final against Collingwood would be one for the nerves. Winning, heaven. Losing, absolute hell.

As for how I would like to win a Grand Final, I always loved how Essendon beat Hawthorn in '84. Something like that would be special.

As for the poll, I think if one of the options were 'Any of the above', it would win hands down.

A Grand Final victory Over Hawthorn, Carlton, Essendon or collingwood. With a special mention to Footscray who beat us in '54 so we owe them one. Imagine how good the 50's record would be if we had snared 54!!! Brad Green Hold that Cup Aloft

....of course... :lol:

Having survived watching the Gablich run from the wing as a 10 year old kid in 64 beating the filth by less than a goal is the ultimate premiership dream! (enjoyed 66 and 70 also even wasnt the dees!)

Thumping the Bummers would be next best because of 2000 GF treatment of our young players!!!

After so long in the end would not care as long as we break the drought!!

Aaron or Jack Watts would be worthy candidates to hold the cup up as both likely to be in the mix in 3 or 4 years and not only have the talent but also quality individuals off field too.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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
