Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.


Protest for Jack....

I like the marshmallow idea. Im am buying a pack tommoro! We need to do something... this isn't a mfc thing this is an AFL thing! All lovers of our great game are effected by this, some are blinded by the fact that he was wearing a mfc gurnsey but he was wearing a afl one when he got rubbed out! Adrian Anderson must go!

Bring along score cards like they use at Diving events. Every tackle you hold up a score. 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks... Get the entire cheer squad in on it and it'd be noticed all right.

That is good...serious with a good bit of Aussie humour, which the AFL do not have.

BOMBARD KB's show on SEN Tomorrow morning demons....i am so sick of that little Ned Flanders clone!!!

We lost one player to a poor decision, it has been happening since the existance

Get over it. Go tomorrow and enjoy the game win lose or draw.

Protest for Jack, by being that little bit louder in support of the team. That's what Jack would want.

Sitting outside isn't going to make a difference. Nor is going on a 2 hour famine.

My suggestions for banners:

  • 3 Weeks for Jack's Hit
  • The AFL doesn't know Jack's Hit
  • Who took Azaria? Jack did.
  • Who shot JFK? Jack did.
  • A handshake from Jack will cost him 3 weeks.

Feel free to plagiarise / improve etc.

Maybe the players should remove or cover-up the AFL logo on their jumpers

Won't happen but would be a nice message

Yeah I like this idea, just cver it up with black tape or something. Although I dont want players to distracted from the game. The best message is to win I think and win well. Lay a few huge tackles!

I like something built around "Jack's hit"

"AFL doesn't know Jack's hit"

I agree High Tower - we need to turn up in numbers and support the team proudly and loudly.

The only way to answer is to win and/or provide a spirited content and show the football world what we stand for and that we are on the rise

We should all send as many Marshmellows to AFL House in protest ala the campaign in the US to save the TV show Jericho from cancellation where fans sent 18,000 kg of nuts to the CBS network.

Fan protest saves US show Jericho

Post-apocalypse TV drama Jericho has been saved from cancellation following an internet campaign by its fans.

US TV network CBS axed the show last month, triggering a protest that culminated in shipments of nuts being sent to the broadcaster.

"Wow!" said CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler in a letter to the fans. "You got our attention."

Tassler said seven new episodes of the drama had been ordered, with more to follow if ratings improve.

"We will count on you to rally around the show, to recruit new viewers with the same grass-roots energy, intensity and volume you have displayed in recent weeks," said Tassler.

"PS. Please stop sending us nuts."

'Incredible'

Jericho is set in a Kansas town whose residents have survived a series of nuclear explosions throughout the US.

The show launched last autumn to positive reviews and encouraging ratings.

After it returned from a three-month mid-season break, however, its viewing figures plummeted, prompting CBS to cancel the show.

The decision enraged fans, who started a letter-writing campaign.

After the season finale, in which one of the characters responds to a demand by saying "nuts", protesters also began sending peanuts to CBS offices.

According to the Nuts For Jericho campaign website, about 18,000 kg of nuts were delivered before the network capitulated.

Yeah, i heard that...We need to win games to make our points stronger...this club is perceived as a joke or an annoyance to the greater media.

If Chris Judd was charged with the same offense what would the penalty be??? 3 weeks....

He is well out of touch Bartlett and I'm sick of him peddling the AFL agenda.

He peddles to suit himself having been one of the architects on the rules committee.

Yeah I had to switch off the radio when he came on, he doesn't even TRY to see the other point of view and continuously cut people off during their argument to make them seem foolish (mind you many people who ring in can sound pretty foolish on their own!). Case in point, one listener started to say that Trengoves tackle was an accidental part of the game and as soon as he said the word accidental....BAM! KB cut him off and said, "well it wasn't accidental, it was incidental as stated my the MRP", just because they say something is doesn't make it so Bartlett. People are allowed to have opinions.

Protests would be a bit baffling for the 99% of people at the game who don't read the forum. Better hand out some leaflets outside :rolleyes:

P.S - The banner should read JACK TRENGOVE KILLS [censored] DEAD

    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.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
