  • 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.

How in god's name is Watts getting votes?

The kid played good and showed some strong marks but not in the top 6 players.

Some of you should be kicked in the guts for not including Barts. Kid was hard and actually gave us run and heart all night.

6 - Garland

5 - Trengove

4 - Jamar

3 - Bartram

2 - Jones

1 - Bail

Awarded for effort only. Sadly, we widn't have a single winner on the night.

6. Garland - Battled manfully. The best of our overwhelmed defenders, but several costly clangers.

5. Jamar - Worked hard but was one-out against two or three all night.

4. Watts - Good work rate including a couple of strong marks. Encouraging, but looked 'lost' on occasions.

3. Jones - Worked hard, but the usual flaws were evident

2. Trengove - Worked hard against the odds of a dominant WC midfield

1. Bail - Earned his place, particularly in the first half.

6 - Garland

5 - Jones

4 - Jamar (and he was well beaten by his man, which shows how little this weeks votes equate to actually playing well!)

3 - Trengove

2 - Bail

1 - Watts

Same players; same comment about Jamar (gee, he busted a gut out there, even though he was well beaten and ditto for Bail); slightly different order:

6 - Garland

5 - Trengove

4 - Jamar

3 - Jones

2 - Bail

1 - Watts

I'm actually tempted to rate Jamar first and Bail second because they did not give up trying, even though their opponents were probably best and second best on the ground.

6. Watts

4. Jamar

3. Garland

2. Bartram

1. Rivers

I'm sending out a search party to see if they can find Davey, Jurrah, Wona & Bennell. They all seem to go missing at the same time so I'm sure they're together.

Well said.

It's official. The bloke had his turn to go, and didn't go.

He can be dropped from now into infinitely. Bald, tattooed, and soft.

When was that? when he got crunched from glass?

Im sorry but if that was watts or bennell they would have run in the opposite direction. Jones took his hit and was our best player on the night. Very starnge you see this the other way.

Votes mainly based on the work rate of the players

6 - Bartram

5 - Watts

4 - Jamar

3 - Jones

2 - Trengove

1 - Tapscott

It must be hard being in this group and seeing Aaron Davey out their. Pathetic effort by him. If you are too lazy to run, give someone else a game.

Brad Green has lost it as Captain, Moloney should be captain irrespective of his ONE night of drinking on the town. Did David Neitz lose his captaincy when he punched the bouncer at Crown several years back.. (I honestly do not know, but I only think he apologised, and that was that)

How in god's name is Watts getting votes?

Maybe because he was the ONLY ONE wearing red and blue (well, white) that actually gave 100% in the first quarter. I'm not exaggerating. He was the only one out there who looked like he g.a.f. early.

Faded a bit and on a better night for the team, that perfomance wouldn't get votes. But he definitely deserves some credit.

For those that put Grimes in - didn't he play on Darling?

I was thinking the same thing... Racked up 27 touches with his usual dose of clangers and his 18yo opponent kicked three. Would've thought he was way off votes.

He's the bottom 6 we've all been looking for

How can you not have Davey in there? At leaset Rivers tried to look interested. Davey clearly did not want to be out there last night.

Really surprised with a lack of votes for Bartram.

He worked really hard, which is more than about 16 other players can say for themselves.

Yep, Clint and Judy Garland gave it a crack no worries with them, Mark Jamar worked his ring off, but none of our midfielders could be bothered getting near his taps.

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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,
