  • 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 hate to say I told you so but...

I told you so.

Dunn is in our best 22 and should have never been dropped. Whenever Dunn plays he hits the scoreboard. Another 2 goals today and named in the best. All of those people who think he had nothing to offer this club take a good hard look at yourself (90% of ppl on this site). If you can't see the obvious talent that Dunn has then I'm worried about you. He would be a 45-50 goal a year forward.

I never realised how hard it is to type when you are laughing hysterically...

Whether or not Dunn continues his decent form of late, you have been wrong about so much, for so long that a thread like this is so undeserved it's bordering on narcissistic perversion.

Newton can become a good AFL player...

Jack Grimes has a fundamental flaw in his kicking...

Anyone else have anymore gems from Freak?

Yeah, I have a pearler.

"190-192 centimetre players are useless in the AFL."

Well guess how tall Dunn is...

When you do an "I told you so" It's best reserved for when someone does a Sylvia, and kicks four goals, gets 35+ touches... Monsters a game.

Dunn was barely in our best. It was a good-serviceable game.

Oh, and you're wrong about the "never should have been dropped." He was, for large chunks of the year, nowhere near in our best 22. If he'd made the side it would have been unfair to better performed players playing a similar role.

Oh. And when he does the same against a football side... not the local grandma's sewing circle that turned up yesterday, then we'll take notice.

You told us Freak, over and over, but he proved only so much yesterday. Calm down.

I'm going to attempt to take this seriously. Going forward I see our forward structure being something like:

FF: Wona Watts Jetta

HFF: Sylvia Miller Jurrah

Obviously the aim is to get our midfielders to also rotate through the area, guys like Green, Grimes, Blease and the new guys.

I just can't see a spot for him when we're serious about winning games, perhaps Jetta but I love the pressure he provides. Even so I'd prefer Davey taking Jetta's place, not Dunn.

Dunn has perhaps bought himself another couple of years with his recent performances but he is still only a depth player.

Would love for him to prove me wrong though

Dunn is rubbish. Still has never had a really good game.

He is just in our 22 now when we are tanking but come next year, as soon as we have a healthy list and a few more young talented players he wont be a starting 22 player. Just not good enough unfortunately, Shame we wasted such a high pick on him.

Hopefully you are the recruiting manager at one of the 15 other clubs as all Dunn did yesterday was create some trade value. Is not a best 22 player.

Dunn's a bit of an average player, but I'd have him ahead of Miller in that forwardline. I just wonder if his time is up? He was hapless yesterday.

Oh, snap.

Check mate.

Game over.

Oh, remembered another - Morton can't kick as well as Palmer and we should grabbed him instead at Pick 4.

I heard Grimes is playing in Albury next week.

Dropped for his fundamentally flawed kicking action which has seen him have such a poor second season.

As if we wasted pick 14 on this dud.

He is hopeless, seriously, his kicking action is so flawed he nearly bloody won us the game yesterday and made us lose Scully. Get rid of him! :wub:

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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

    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,
