  • 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.

Cameron Bruce (ouch)

It just surprises me the ill feeling you have for Bruce! He gave me a lot of enjoyment over the years. In today's football world Players are chewed up and spat out at the whim of the Club. So if a

Yeah, and in other news, I think it's unfair the way Norm Smith was sacked.

But then again he may have deserved it. We'll never know.

Let's just drop it and move on...

Don't you understand my post or are you attempting humour?

The latter, hence the stupidly annoying cigarette smoking Demon that I just hate, the swarmy little thing.

Did I mention I don't like a particular emoticon?

Your post was far too confusing.

On that most recent relevant topic - I'd probably put a young player on him who needs to see, first hand, how hard you need to run for four quarters at AFL level - maybe a Bennell?

It was good to see Yesterday as i was reading the "heart beat" magazine, that Cameron Bruce got one paragraph, that had obviously been added as an after thought.

Sadly that is how you will be remembered Cameron (your choice).

He is excited and looking forward to wearing the Hawthorn jumper next year. I F@#$ing Despise Hawthorn.

Time to move on peeps. He is opposition fodder now.

It's all good and well to say 'let's move on' but who will we be watching Round 2?

I will watch Cam looking awful in his trakkies, Moloney posturing like a bull, and Hodge attempting to pry Brent off of him.

Demonland started in 2000 and in our first full year (2001) we instituted a Player of the Week.

I've just been able to access our archives and found that our very first POTW was ... (drum roll) ... a young Cameron Bruce

Cameron Bruce - Round 1, 2001

Cameron Bruce showed that he has earnt his place in the team. After missing last year's Grand Final with injury, Cameron made his return with some strong marking, silky skills, a few blind turns and some pin-point passes.

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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,
