  • 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.

Ditto. He's an angry angry man when he's sticking up for his mates.

I don't think Collingwood will go too far out of their way to rough up Jack though. They'll give him a push and shove here and there. But if they're seriously concerned with unsettling a kid in his first game, then they haven't got their mind on the job. Would only be a good sign for us.

Not if it's done in the first 5 minutes-It would unsettle us more than them.

I would think our whole team would be straight in there if they have a go at Jack.

We need to remember to keep going the ball, I just hope Collingwood get carried away.

I honestly don't think Jack will be that fussed to be honest. Leigh Brown won't throw his weight around, that guy is a fairy. Cale Morton could beat him up.

Lets hope Col brings his baseball bat.

Dealing with the players won't be a problem. Collingwood are an average side with players like Daisy, Dingleberry, Medders, Josh "Please don't hurt me" Fraser, Wellingham, "Hold on" O'Brien, Wood and the Metre Maid (Cloke) running around, Watts should feel at ease.

The Collingwood fans on the other hand are a different story. They should have to go through metal detectors before entering the ground.

Russell ?? has to be.

Nah, Robbo's a pretty boy. It'll be the tough nuts in the centre. The likes of McLean, Moloney, Jones (providing he plays) etc. That said, it'll probably happen at least once in the forwardline, so maybe Robbo might have too? PJ? Pity there's no Neita anymore, he'd clear em up. ;)

would not be surprised if there is a modern day football all in before the bounce

maxwell ud think would be the man to start it moloney to finish it

would people be disapointed if we had a few suspensions /fines as a result?

these days with bad records and carry over points tribunal history is important in the years to come

Hmm, a bit like the line in the sand declared by Hawthorn against the Dons a few seasons back? I wouldn't be totally against it, although the tribunral history is an interesting point.

Would certainly make it difficult to win games in the 2nd Half of the season. So maybe its a good idea!!!!

And would certainly increase DVD sales of Mondays Game.

If you're realistic you'd have to expect them to try to rough him up... and I welcome it.

I want to see his inner fortitude tested -- I think he's ready to handle it and he will come up roses.

I'd love to see our boys fly the flag for him too, put on a real show of solidarity.

No 'Line in the Sand' incidents though -- that was over the top and you'd rather do it against a 'tough' team like Hawthorn, not kleenex-triple-ply-soft Collingwood.

Let them do it. It will only fire us up.

I would also love to see Nathan Jones stick it up em with a big game. After kicking the winning goal I want to see him kiss his jumper right in the face of the Collingwood cheer squad then point to where his dad is sitting.

If they try to have a go at Watts early keep an eye on both McLean and Moloney, Beamer especially because he knows exactly what this day means and he is one person i would not want to [censored] off!

Green would probably be the closest in the forward 50 who'd be there to back him up.

I've tried wrestling with him when out drinking -- that boy can cause some serious damage

No need to protect him if he is on the bench, I think he will start on the bench until the sting goes out of the game 5mins in.

Well thats what I would do.

I'm pretty sure I heard or read Bailey saying he wouldn't be eased into the game off the bench - he'll start in the forward line.

My hit & miss memory might be playing up again though...

mr nathan jones is a shoe-in for BOG/suspension tomorrow!

im sure there will still be feelings after last times game, so he will rather fired up

btw, i think jack should start on the bench, the noise when at the 10min mark of the first qtr, he takes his jacket off, stands up and gets put on for robbo... would be incredible

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
