  • 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 am watching but being at work unable to use the chat function.

Great initiative Cam but would love this after work.

That was incredibly insightful. Great initiative. I asked Cam if he could confirm whether the 1933 demon was the logo that would be re-introduced alongside the new Emblem (Cam quick to remind me that it was an Emblem, not a logo). He stated that a demon would be reintroduced, but that the demon goes back to the 60's and not the 1933 one that has been floated around by some posters. So short answer, we are still definately, bringing back the demon!

I had a fight with a pack of graphic designers about this. They claimed our new logo was to busy and need refining. All they could comment on was how it would come up as a fax and B. how would look as an icon

After a few red wines, I told them where to stick their advice since they couldn't tell the difference between a logo and an emblem. Wouldn't spend any money at their frms, clueless.

Can't believe Cam Schwab reads demonland. Hope he ignores the paranoia and sack Bailey threads. :P

Give the bloke some credit!

Sounds like a great initiative, but can't access it when at work.

Shame.

I thoroughly enjoyed the hour or so with Cam Schwab and other Demon supporters. It was great to see him in his office at the MCG surrounded by all Demon paraphernalia and of course his guitar. Very informative and it reassures we have the best in the business.

Could not agree more "Hangon007"

God help me for raising this but!!!!!

His comment re the clash jumper was interesting!

What I got from the comment was similar to this year but with a little tinkering.

So A white jumper with trimings in red and Blue. ( I can now endure it )

Please do not go off at me, just my interpretation

he possibly saw them, but did he like them?

nothing to indicate in what he said

I'd speculate something based on new emblem or part of it (e.g. MFC letters)

or, the new demon logo he alluded to

see post #68, #77 and the early options. I bet the jumper will resemble one of those jumpers

I'm FULLY aware of that, doh

I just said that he didn't make any reference to any influence from demonland

The possibility of the MFC letters on the jumper was obvious to anyone who had an early peek at the emblem

that clearer for you

Still can't understand why it's necessary to have a clash jumper that has white in it. Things worked nicely for more than 100 years without them at all (nearly 115 in the case of Collingwood and Essendon).

And how on earth did the AFL allow a new franchise in the GCS to have a predominantly red jumper when there are already enough in the competition with that colour?

I suppose GWS will have a blue and white guernsey?

Many of us can't understand it WJ and of course GWS will be granted those colors, they already have been haven't they?

Gold Coast have released three jumpers already, their home, away and clash jumper. Their clash is predominately white...

    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

    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,
