  • 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.

Was the Jack Trengove hearing fair?

Edit: PS, Watch the game @ Leighoak or Bentleigh, then attend, The Storm NRL game enmass in protest.

Being an away game its very tempting dee-luded but I think the boys will need all our support. Lets lift the roof off and wear black arm bands.

+1. The boys will have additional fire in their belly after this - give them even more fuel by being there and being noisy. I'd be there in an instant if I could.

Feeling very hollow about the AFL and this decision.

I know it is sad but I have been wondering what the result would be like if this was a collingwood player or a suns player. Or even a player with a chance of a charlie....

Sorry thats was petty.

But the whole thing stinks.

Stick it to the AFL this week demons and rip those kangas apart

Just watched one after the other. The impact of milburn's tackle seemed greater. And trengrove got up straight away and laid another tackle. There was nothing malicious in it. My opinion is that it was a straight forward tackle of a player who knew he was going to be tackled but chose to kick instead of hand passing therefore leaving himself on one leg as he is tackled thus resulting in putting himself off balance and easily thrown during said tackle. But that's just me.

I really like this idea! But for the black arm bands to be effective, you would need people to know what they are for - anyone got any media contacts? I will bring the black duct tape! :)

Once upon a time there was a handsome prince who played for Carlton. One day he gauged the face of an opponent drawing blood. He got charged and because he was the afl poster prince he got let off. A few weeks later he won the Charlie whilst his victim looked on. True story

Oh it sucks balls alright, but winning is now very important so the AFL will continue to hear our rage.

Welcome the New Melbourne Football Club.

Who is going to the game on Saturday? Who will put on a black arm band with me? I have just been informed that the HS news desk is aware of this (I reposted it on the Free Demon Jack page), so hopefully we will get some coverage. Who is game for a grass roots demonstration of our disquiet with this decision? :lol:

Message to the MFC

Much harder to appeal than to get it right the first time !!!

Why didnt you get Galbally in the first f-ing place ?? he got Richards off..gets many off.. but we tried to do it by ourselves.

Hope weve all learnt a valuable lesson here....besides the AFL being a bunch of pricks that is !!

We had an experienced advocate at the Tribunal and Galbally would have done no better. The word "preordained" just springs to mind.

I wonder how long it will be before the AFL becomes the ANCFL ?

(NC=non contact)

How about our 18 players and their 18 players have a fingerpainting contest? Wait - those papercuts can hurt! :(

    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

    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.
