  • 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.

Just signed up my 7-month old nephew this morning.

His dad's a lion but mum's a demon so he'll probably end up with memberships at both clubs.

The battle for his heart and mind has begun :)

Tell his old man to Buy a Paddle Pop and move to Queensland. This is Melbourne Territory down here!!!!

I've come across many families in this predicament. If you live in Melbourne, then thankfully the little one will be growing up in what will probably be the Demons most successful era in many year.

He will be amongst many of todays young to jump onto the Demons wagon & form the nucleous of the futures membership army.

16,355

I was just about to say that.

November 29, 2010: We're really speeding along now. We're currently sitting at 16,355 members, ahead of (roughly) the same stage last year, where the tally was 15,609. These figures are from December 2, 2009, so they aren't spot on, but we're about 800 ahead, as we were on my last update.

20k by 2011's a good chance. We were on about 18,000 at the start of this year from memory, so if we all start signing up (I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this), it's not out of the question.

Just upgraded my membership for 2011.

I have a 17 game membership, where do premium MFC members sit at the away games?

Wherever. I was a junior member this year so my 17 game membership got me into the MCC (my dad's a member, so we went to both the Collingwood matches and the second Hawthorn one), but I normally sat where the cheer squad is located, which, at an away game, is generally the Ponsford Stand.

thinking about getting a legends membership, although at 800+ it is quite steep. obviously it would be as a donation - im already a 17 game reserved seat member as well as MCC/MFC member. but i really cant think of a better way to spend some of my tax return. however, id certainly be looking at getting something of value out of this for myself... selfish i know.

does anyone have one of these memberships - and are they worth the coin?

Depends on whether you take up the 'extras' like pregame, after game, dinners, special events for VIPs etc.

If you like going to that stuff - find out what they are and make and judgement call.

If you live in Canberra just forget about it.

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
