  • 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.

Here it is:

What do we all think of our NEW 2010 slogan. Looks ok i think, would have been inclined to use the top 4 or 5 young blokes maybe Grimmes, Watts, Trengove, Scully and LJ?? as they are why we are going to the footy this year too watch how they progress.

I love it !! Not hard to beat some of the [censored] slogans thrown up by other clubs in recent times.

I'm happy with it.

Will lead to a few "we put the fire out" retorts by opposition sides when we have a bad loss.

But even that is good and puts our brand out there.

As much as the "they know we're coming" slogan was arrogant, it still got the blues a lot of exposure and added to their story.

Hopefully ours will do the same.

Its also a theme I think we can build on in coming years as the side gets better.

That's fine, I'd just say that "we didn't start the fire."

Agree .... particularly the fact that we can build on it from year to year.

Already installed it as my pc wallpaper.

I think it is good. It's not too cocky unlike past opposition slogans. I think it will work well and agree with others that it's something to build on.

With regard to your selected players you would be inclined to use, I'm sure they will be used in other campaigns. Having established on field leaders such as Sylvia, Davey & Green is a good choice. They will be the ones leading from the front and meeting expectations this year. The players you mention still have to establish themselves and get more games under the belt. They don't really need to be the front men of marketing & promotion just yet in my opinion. The majority of supporters and members would know a bit about them already and the excitement they may bring very soon. I'm sure a few of them will be the next cab off the rank come the next promotional slogan. :)

Yeah fare call might be a bit much too advertise kids that havn't even played an AFL game yet. I agree its something to build on. Hopefully they earn the right to be "poster boys" next year. Go Dee's

Copy the pic link and add [ img ] and [ /img ] either side of the link in your post.

For example the link you provided, I simply copied that link (http://etc etc...)in your post and added the [ img ] at the front and [ /img ] at the end of the link.

Not bad but Brad struggles to pull off the hard man. It looks like someone has knocked off his chocolate milk.

That's what I call strategic marketing. demon_smile.gif

Or anal retentiveness demon_tongue.gif

But seriously, all players should have either had socks up or down, and hands by their side or crossed, not a mixture of both. It's very distracting to those of us who suffer from obsessive compulsive behaviour (and is ruins the balance of the photo)demon_wink.gif

For those talking about the players - I think on the website it rotates them through.

At the moment on mine it has Jurrah, Davey and Mcdonald.

Is that the MFC website?? i checked it out and couldnt see the slogan at all??

If that obsessive compulsive behaviour reaches high heart beat excitement distraction for the like, the marketing may have arguably worked to a degree.;)

Just ask Mrs. Silvagni.

Didn't even notice the socks - what annoys me is the change-up of the font!

Haha - spot on! I'm a graphic designer and the first thing i wondered was why is "the fire" in a different font to "has started?" It should have all been the same or "fire" should have been the only word in flames. Sorry......weird I know but I have to say, I love it! Reckon it's a good choice of players too!

    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
