  • 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.

Can we request a retrospective hearing for Sylvia's jaw and White's face? After all, if the starting point is the injury and then we start looking for blame, I think those guys have a good gripe! :(

I think the Melbourne team actually made a fatal flaw by not putting their focus heavily on the fact Dangerfield kicked out at the football as Trengove swung him around, significantly contributing to the impact of the tackle.

This was the key point, in my opinion.

I think the whole thing was a sham and their mind was made up before it all started.

Absolute disgrace, this Andrew Tinney is a jumped up grandstanding little c^#t...read the transcript...mind made up already...he would never have played football in his life...thinks he can determine what excessive force is...how can he possibly determine that...Tinney was the same bloke who questioned the manhood of Steven Baker...cant stand people who think they are bigger than the game...who place these little turds in positions of power????

ok so from this day forth do the AFL ban the practice of pinning a players arm in a tackle??? If injuries and consequences are not taken into account surely anyone who pins a players arm in a tackle are negligent and reckless???

Just one week closer to wearing flags and playing touch football.

This sport is a shadow of what it was.

The MRP are a bunch of wankers, the tribunal are wankers, the AFL are wankers.

The game is now a corporate spectacle, not a contest of men.

Shoot them all.

195 user(s) are reading this topic as I speak.

All of them are [censored] off. The [censored] thing is that someone will do the same thing to us next week and nothing will happen. And if we bring it up we will be fined. Such a [censored] system. 3 weeks for this.

Yet Judd can elbow Pavlich in the face while he is on the ground and gets a Brownlow.

We can appeal I believe?

And I hope we do!

We have nothing to lose now and it's worth a try. It seems unbelievable to me that they can justify 3 weeks for a tackle when kicking a player in the nuts or punching them in the face (with a bad record) gets you 2 weeks max.

ARGH!!!! :lol:

What a dead set joke !!!!

I bet if he played for carlton or collingwood he may have only got a reprimand !!

Mfc has no clout or credibility anywhere in the afl.

[censored] you afl ..... Best the match review panel gets started suspending the players that did the 5 similar tackles from last night.

Bunch of hypocrites ..... Yet col Silvia getting his jaw broken last year is deemed fair.

Stand back and take a good hard look afl

Absolutely. Hell, Judd got a Brownlow for elbowing Pavlich in the face.

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    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.
