  • 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 just thought I'd throw it out there that Channel 7 Two seems to be playing classic AFL games during the wee small hours on an almost nightly basis. They had the 2007 Melbourne-North game on last night (North leads by 35 in the last quarter, we storm back to take a 6 point lead only to lose by 1). Anyway, I'll be checking the guide fairly regularly in the hope of seeing some great Melbourne wins this offseason. I couldn't find any Melbourne games I'm interesting in seeing for the rest of the week, though they do have 45 minutes of the 87 prelim on the weekend.

Don't watch the '87 Prelim Pants. It is seriously not good for the Health Physically or mentally!!

The Nightmare lives on.....! Dam ch7....

No danger of that happening! Like many of us old enough, I was there and once was quite enough thank you.

I'll check the guide fairly regularly and try to keep folks informed when there's a Melbourne win coming up on the schedule.

Caught Melbourne vs Fremantle from 1999 at 3am the other night on 7TWO. Fifty point loss, Modra kicked 7 or something. Kept waiting for a big 4th quarter comeback that never happened! Good to see the Wiz run around in the right colours though. Ox looked creaky but strong. Lyon kicked a monster torp goal from inside the center square. Hope they show a Dee's win sometime!

Yep. I actually went to the last ever game there (Hawks v Swans) in '99. Like the crafty villain in a horror movie, I wanted to make sure it was dead.

Going out there now, to see it as a Hawthorn Training Facility could be just as Bad. It should have Been Nuked to excorsise all memory....

I was at the 2007 Demons/North match setting near a totally obnoxious female North supporter. So glad when demons hit the lead (shut the cow up) but very sad with outcome. I think Swallow kicked the winning goal. I also remember years ago a similar match when Clarkson kicked a winning goal for North either close to or after the siren.

As for the 2000 GF. I was there. That was enough. I've never watched a reply. And never will.

Sat back and watched the '08 Dee's v Freo match last night.

Highlights include:

- Miller killing them

- Aussie's fantastic goal celebrations

- Molonley coming back after a spray from Bails to turn it our way

- Bartram just smashing McManus into the turf

- Seeing Chopper and Whitey in the red and blue

- Seeing a skinny first year player by the name of Morton ooze class and poise

    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,

    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
