  • 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.

Nice way to rub it in.... really not a good night for MFC.

An excellent night.

We are now much closer to Scully and whoever else we feel like taking with pick 2.

Watching Naitanui should be a reminder to everyone why winning more than 4 games and not finishing bottom, is a disaster of massive proportions... and that winning culture is a load of crap.

After the performances of the last few weeks, winning the last quarters won't hold anybody back from any apologists, and neither should they.

Prepare for some very scathing criticism tomorrow.

That's the good thing about being overseas. To find it I have to go look for it.

You're not looking hard enough. WC winning is a better result for the dees than winning against the Lions would have been. We were laways going to get done by 10 goals at the gabba. But now we see next week as quite possibly making a HUGE difference to the draft order.

Nat looks pretty amazing, i can only imagine the [censored] we are gonna hear about Watts vs Nat.

Anyone who feels like making that comparison after 3 games, is a short-sighted idiot.

Why don't we compare them to Daniel Rich, who currently shits all over both of these guys in every aspect.

FFS, did you see the space that Naitanui had to work with to get his last goal? Put that ball and that space with Jack Watts, and he'll kick you a goal too. Or put that ball in the goal square and he'll kick one through for you as well.

No doubt, Naitanui is going to be one hell of a player, but he is older and stronger than Watts so any comparison is irrelevant.

I know that Jaded I'm just as sick of all this [censored] as you was what i was trying to get across.

Next week is a win win...If we win, it's a win and i doubt we will still finish with more than four wins...

and if we lose, we are pretty much guaranteed picks 1 and 2

in saying that, i highly doubt that west coke will not win another game

Hopefully with another number 1 pick, and the addition of a number 2 pick, the spotlight will come off Watts, and he can develop without being under the microscope as much as he is now.

With Scully, he should be good to go round 1, and be picking up touches from the outset, so you wouldn't imagine he would cop it to the same extent as Watts.

So the question is, exactly how many people are going to show up next week to the West Coast game?

I'll be there, but for people who might be 50-50, tonights performance didn't exactly excite. No doubt it'll rain too knowing our luck. I hope as many people get along as they can. Hell, it's a chance to see a win FFS.

    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

    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.
