  • 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.

Did anyone hear Dean Bailey's comment at the after-match press conference on Friday Night?

He said the team will move on in 24 hours and next Saturday will "be coming at West Coast like a freight train"

It cheered me up no end on the drive home - I belive him!

We absolutely will. The silver lining on that loss is that the boys will be hurting, and will have a massive point to prove.

I didn't pick us against the Roos... I had a LOT more confidence in us against the Dogs, but still thought we'd just get found out... But against the Toast? I'm picking a 60+ point win. Their form against the Hawks is no indication as they have no ruckmen or KP defenders... both things we have in abundance. Also our Pre-season game might as well have been 30 years ago such is the difference in the teams.

Did you see Nat Jones twitter after the game. He wanted to play WC straight away. Can't wait. Also who was the player that cleaned up Col Sylvia preseason - I'd be very afraid. That freight train is coming.

Josh Kennedy look out!

I'm so glad Dean said this. I want to see us rip the coasters a new one.

Weren't there murmurs that Sylvia was targeted after his working over (and subsequent suspension) of Selwood last year?

I'd rather Sylvia make West Coast pay on the scoreboard. If we play how we've played 5 of the last 6 weeks we'll win and win well. If.

Yes and no. Just make sure that he knows every time he goes for a mark there will be a freight train behind him. Every time he goes for the ball he will be tackled by two or three men in red and blue and punished and when he is on that plane going home that every inch of his body aches. Every player should be paying him back but not Col because that is what is expected and what the ump's will be looking for. I'm not saying do something that could get reported . I'm saying let him know that the team doesn't respect him but we will support one of our own. Finally, of course show him on the scoreboard.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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
