  • 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.

Maybe we should start a 'Demon shop profit 2011' thread...

Throw some love to the non-members.

:)

Fwiw, we surpassed 20,000 on the 21st-22nd January. It's tally on that date was 20,080.

Use that as some sort of benchmark. Throughout last Christmas break and January the tally did seem to stall - that might be expected though with many on holidays, etc.

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?

I have one; When it was called the Presidents membership i upgraded my membership purely for Jimmy and the Debt Demolition - but there is no way could go back to any other membership level now.

It's definitely pricey, and it's definitely not the best value for money option available - but it is definitely the best.

The Presidents club luncheon is amazing, I will buy my Legends membership every year just for my passes to this. Gourmet food, free alcohol all day, and the exclusivity of it all is great (although it wont quite be the same without Pia Miller and her friends there anymore)

The passes to the change rooms and the Premium Members function are not extraordinarily exclusive features of the membership, but they do make your personal connection with the club (and other supporters) more intimate and i think that in general that is the aim of the membership, to bring you closer.

never got that email, ive renewed though, 10.41 a month isnt much to pay

I didn't get the email either but that's great news, assumed they weren't offering anything extra for signing up early this year.

Not that it changes anything for me, was going to renew early in the new year but the "Todd Viney returning to the club" announcement triggered an impulse decision. Was a fair bit poorer that week but still grinning.

Er Lions 29,048??? They had final figures last season of 26,779

With the startup of GC and their poor showing/mgmt last year I'd expect them to slip.

Jumped up to 17,541 members. 20k by Christmas is definitely a good target.Also, we're 1,931 members up on the same stage last year, which is fantastic.

3rd out of Vic clubs isn't bad...... although Ess aren't declaring their figures, but since you can't even buy a membership on their website, presumably they are less than us!

And what's going on at Geelong, less members than Gold coast......

We've surpassed what we were at 15th Dec last year. I think this time we might well surpass the 20,000 mark by Christmas.

Don't wanna put a dampener on it, but I think a part of that may be the promise to get memberships out by christmas.

Fingers crossed it's not.

Either way, it's still good for the club, because if they aren't monthly direct debit, the money is in the bank sooner rather than later.

I'd assume a team that's made the last four prelims and won two Grand Finals would have started late to only have reached those figures.

    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
