  • 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.

Glenelg dominating the first 7 minutes of the match.... Raining now.... Trengove clears with a nice right foot kick out of defence.... Certainly has a penetrating kick

Jace Bode (Sturt) has not improved his skills over the years.... haha... shanked a kick in the centre and Glenelg rebound and kick their 2nd goal.... 14-0 so far 12 mins 1st qtr.... Trengove has been in the action a couple of times, a nice in and under handball.... Rain will be a massive factor... Will be interesting to see how he goes in the wet conditions.... Very physical start to the match

Qtr time.... Glenelg 15 to Sturt 0

Sturt trying way to hard to be physical and not concentrating on the pill..... Luke Norman will most likely blast them at the break....

Commentators have made a point of saying how "ferocious" Trengove is when he goes into a contest.... prepared to run straight through some way bigger bodies...

Inside 50's 16 - 3 in favour of Glenelg....

Trengove has started quite well, gets in and under in the contest and has good awareness.... but also is very aware of where his direct opponent is at all times....

Trengove another clearing ball from defence... Finds a target again....

Very scrappy game so far.... Sturt slowly getting back into the game, but need to be more direct....

Trengove takes a strong contested grab, and gets a 25 mtr penalty.... short kick to a teammate..... Goal to the captain again.... Trengoves direct opponent Ruwolt is getting frustrated....

A friend who barracks for Richmond keeps telling me that Dustin Martin is a better player than Trengove. He won't convince our recruiting people of that I'm sure!

Trengove is just so impressive.... Always seems to be around the ball and his defensive work is as good as his offensive work.... I will be pretty dissapointed if we pass up on him.... Has leadership written all over him....

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
