  • 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.

The draw tonight

Over 100 years since there were draws in rounds 1 and 2. Will get back to you on consecutive weeks.

Condemned, I totally agree. People whinging about needing a result - a draw is a result!

I went last night, so that's 2 games live for me this year for 2 draws!

I usually hate watching the Saints games, but last nights game was pretty entertaining. I found that the Saints looked to move the ball a little quicker last night, but it actually exposed their lack of leg speed on the G when they play a faster style on that ground.

The Bombers next week at Etihad will be an interesting match. They are basically the Bombers [censored]!

If we can play with the intensity shown by Richmond for 100 mins. we will beat the dawks.

I have to say that I'm starting to associate the sound of the final siren with a look of puzzled bewilderment on the faces of Saints players

And I'm enjoying it

The Saints blew it last night. Without Hayes, therir lack of leg speed and a few lazy midfielders showed them up.

I just wonder what the result had been if Hayes was not carried off and Jack Riewoldt was not concussed.

A draw on the Board....but a psychological win for the Tigers.

But talk back will be flooded with people calling for extra time etc

I for one do not have a prob with the draw, thought it was a great game and think the Saints are in a world of pain this year.

Agree Condemned. The draw should stand as the result.

Amazing, the last 3 games a the MCG have gone.....

Draw, Draw, One point

The last four games at the G have gone draw, draw, 1 point, draw.

The last four games at the G have gone draw, draw, 1 point, draw.

You are missing the Carlton win in the first game by 20 point and the grand final win by collingwood

But there have been three draws in the last 6 games at the G

I love having 'The Draw', and the randomness of how it hits the ladder at any time of the year.

Also love the Grand Final replay.

I bet the Saints wish they had a hard in and under ball winner to replace Hayes........ maybe like Ball :)

How true.

Also, these changes will. IMO, help them for the future.

I think they will now have to rid themselves of this terrible flooding, and promote football players, instead of defensive drones.

Surprised how soft and slow Dal Santo & Montagna were last night. Surprised because I'd always considered them hard & fast.

I've had a soft spot for the Saints over the years (my grade 6 teacher was Bob Murray) but they will come right back to the field without Hayes.

I think Dal Santo looks slow, he seems to shuffle not sprint. Agree Montagna does not seem to split the lines like he use too.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
