Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

Who said this tipping comp is hard ?   6 road winners in 2 weeks, unheard of

So out of the 17 weeks a decent tipping year might see one get 3 road winners about 5,  6 or 7 times.  1 in 3?

But at about 6-1 or 7-1 odds for the tri-bet that's a handy return.  Not that I'm encouraging gambling of course!  Just thinking out loud JV.

*Always gamble responsibly

And you're a renowned quick starter from the gates (Schillaci) so I've been watching your tips closely ?

Just need to remember who finishes well ... maybe DS? Gorg? Clinto?

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

As for Eli ...

Terry Bradshaw reckons he'd have much better results in a better team so if he was to move,  he might be able to help out a contender

The Steelers have lost Ben for the entire season but Eli as a Steeler has an odd look about it.  Maybe the Jags but Foles would step back in mid season you'd imagine.  Same deal for the Saints & Brees. 

But it's a win now league so there will be an offer or 2.  He'll probably just stay at the Giants and they still need to pay him the big bucks.  But it wouldn't surprise me if he did end up elsewhere.  It can't be assumed that Eli would be happy being a mentor all of a sudden.

Got ahead of myself in the tipping ? good win by the Jags. Titans disappointing, strange side to get a gauge on. Smashed Browns, go down in a close one to indy then lose to a backup rookie QB (who as clint said looks a likely type)

Minshaw looks pretty good. 

Titans were [censored] atrocious, going for it on 3rd and 6 when you have 0 points on the board... insane! Did you see the players faces when it didn’t work and they got zero reward... deflated them and the game was truly over at that minute.

Yeah I just saw that, McVay was asked if we would look at Brown and he said “you look at everyone, but we are pretty happy with our WR core.” 

Even without the latest allegations against him, he’ll be trouble for any team. Career most likely over.

Just finished the days games.

Loved the saints win over the Seahawks, chiefs look amazing on offence, still a little shaky on D but an amazing team. Ravens looked pretty good too.

My boys, well the D is immense, only one big mistake I thought when we rushed at 3&13 and the screen cut us.

Our offence is still pretty average and I am still not sold on Goff, in fact, I don’t think I rate him at all, he throws some absolute spud options into massive cover, was picked horribly today and on a 3rd and 1 threw an interception when he should have just ran for the one yard. 

When he has time he is good but his decision making on the go is very questionable.

3-0 is something as cant complain about tho. Especially when not play8ng great.

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
