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.

One of the best rivalries in football right now Gorg. I'm loving it. 

We're going to have our hands full in coverage, Ambrey Thomas still 50-50 and I've really liked his positioning work. Also anything that keeps that PI machine Josh Norman off the field is a plus. Kupp I'm conceding several catches to already, he's too hot right now. Can we minimise the damage from OBJ and Higbee. I don't know.

Higbee is the one to watch on third downs, he gets us more 3rd downs than any other player.

Kupp is in exceptional form. He has been quiet first halves with great second halves. 
 

To me the game with be lost and won along the two lines. Who controls the line will win the game.

What happened to Dap?

Not sure ... he's had breaks from this place before if I recall correctly

And if it wasn't for these other threads I would have had some time away myself!!

But now that we've broken through with the premiership ..............

Yep, we all needed a break from the main thread in that period I think.

Bills should have known Chiefs would go centre field in the last 13. It's the quickest place to run to and with the time outs they could do it. Milano on Kelce was a terrible matchup. Should have gone an extra DB.

Agree, as I’ve said earlier, double Kelce and Hill and hope the other receivers don’t get you.

Usually from November to February the only Demonland threads I visit are the NFL and cricket ones.

This year's been a touch different...

Yeah the NFL one keeps me sane. Soccer one good from time to time but it's not quite as active as this one. Sometimes go in the MMA one but it's usually just me having a conversation with myself.

But as an aside how much joy has the footy thread been this summer! Just keeps rolling on and on.

Re the tipping comp

For each of the 2 games this weekend 3 points awarded for the win & 3 points for the correct margin (1-6,  7-12,  13+)

So 12 points up for grabs

Mon 7.00am Bengals @ Chiefs

Mon 10.30am 49ers @ Rams

I reckon 5he Bengals can cause the upset, I’m just too chicken to tip them 😂

I’m doing it, need to go for broke!

Big chance for Burrow to go next level, tough but the possibility does exist in this universe I reckon.

If Burrow can play well then this like the Bills game will be high scoring and end to end.

Brady has retired.

You'd have to say that he got out on his own terms and at the top of his game

I'm a tad surprised that he is retiring but he is 44 years old.   Maybe the body said enough (or the mind)

7 x Super Bowl Champion!

What a career!

Seems the tweet which was from his account got deleted. Someone may have pulled the trigger too soon?

    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
