  • 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.


Who are we all barracking for?

Agree with you, hopefully Bulldogs to win the flag, they are the least arrogant. Otherwise Saints.

Yeah, that's the funny thing about St Kilda. Supremely arrogant supporter base, yet have achieved little success.

Which ever teams put out Carlton, Essendon and the Filth (and to a lesser extent, Adelaide). Could not care less who wins the Flag out of the remaining 4 teams, so long as it is not one of the first 4, particularly the first 3.

At least, if it was Adelaide, we wouldn't hear about it over here.:P

Yeah it could be like losing the Ashes, simply never mentioned, move on to something else, spring racing whatever. Their local news could blow their trumpets all they liked and we just get on with life oblivious to it all and looking ahead to next year :D

(plus we get the pleasure of seeing a few of the scum get belted, like the bombers tonite hopefully...)

Not one single person on here wanted Essendon to win last night. One person wants a Collingwood victory on Sunday (YOU know who you are ;) )

I want the Doggies to go all the way, will be at the 'G today waving my Demons scarf at every doggy goal!

- Collingwood (I HATE St Kilda!)

....

How could you...

Truth be told, I'm not much of a St Kilda fan either. Their supporters aren't much better than Collingwood's or Richmond's. But we can't have Collingwood succeed in any way shape or form. And I wouldn't mind seeing one of St Kilda or Dogs end their drought.

Its such an empty feeling sitting at the G on gf day and watching happy players and supporters celebrating a flag. Don't know why i put myself through it every year.

I empathise with you and all other Melbourne Supporters....45 years without a flag is far too long....even the woods pinched one in 1990 to break their drought.

By the way I watched a replay the other day of the last quarter of the 1987 prelim at arctic park. Apart from the well documented "Stynes over the mark" incident, I was reminded of the easy shots missed by Campbell, Yeats and Eishald.....another bad memory DOH.

Let's hope we have better fortunes over the coming few years....though I must say I do not think Bailey is the man for the job.....I am hoping Gazza makes his move into coaching and pays the Club back for the many opportunities he has enjoyed. He is clearly a passionate Melbourne man and still young enough to do a great job developing our next premiership team.

It was a good first week. Only slight disappointment was the doggies getting beat. They could have done with Robbo.

Next week I'm going for:

Bulldogs

Adelaide

Having watched Geelong, they have a way to go to win another flag. They struggled to hold on in the last qtr. On form, Saints v. Crows is looking good for the GF.

As long as Collingwood don't win the Grand Final, I really don't care who does. I still think Geelong will go all the way, but really it's open to anyone. Wouldn't mind seeing the Bulldogs win it though.

I just hope Adelaide can put in another brilliant display up forward again this week.

It was a great weekend for ALL football suporters this weekend; Essendon, Carlton & Collingwood all lost their final. Now Im crossing my fingers for the Scum to take out the Filth out in straight sets (then the Scum to be knocked out in the Prelim final) :lol: :D

    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,

    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.
