  • 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.


Going this Friday

"PRESIDENT Jim Stynes is calling on the red and blue army to come out in force - and wear their flashing Demon horns - for this Friday night’s clash with Carlton."

As the article says this is MFC only home Friday night game for the year, and we are encouraged to wear our demon horns

I think that i will wear them, yeah they are kinda tacky, and my Carlton mates who i am going with will have a good laugh... but who knows 35 thousand pairs of these might actually look good, and let the boys know that they have alot of support at the game

What is everyone elses opinions on this, will you bring them?

And what type crowd can we get to this game?

I reckon 50K+ hopefully pushing 55-60 (this is optimistic i know)

I said yes, Jimmy has asked and as much as I will feel like a complete dill I will at least have them on at some point.

Yeah, the club should think of more logical campaigns. Instead of spending the money on these horn, they should have just given out cheap, blood-red t-shirts for free and encouraged fans to create a "Red Sea" or something.

YeH I'm going with my Carlton wife pre planned at the start of the season not real keen to see us get smashed. As for the horns why not! Agree though could spend the money on something else the horns are a bit tacky

I will give them a go, yeah they are kinda tacky but would really like to see the G lit up and if i dont do it i guess i cant count on others to provide the impression

Really think it could be good with heaps of lights flashing in the dark surrounds

I'm going, and will take the horns.

All my friends, and I mean all of them, are dirty Carlton supporters. If we win I'm wearing those bad boys out after the game when we go out. Surely that's enough motivation for the boys to win this one :P

I'll be moving house Friday to Sunday so there will be no chance of me going this week. After going to the Dome the past couple weeks i feel like i need the rest!

Needless to say the TV will be set up around the open boxes around the house to see Olivia and Jimma perform 'Xanadu'

I'll be there for sure. Match is actually on at the same time as a concert I really wanted to see, so instead of missing one or the other I've taken Thursday & Friday off work and am flying to Adelaide on the Thursday to watch the concert there that night, then flying back to Melbourne friday afternoon to catch the footy!

My horns don't work though (don't flash) so wont be wearing them.

Sorry to be so negative Jaded but you have to have the skill level to win.

No amount of desire will cover a big difference in the relative skill level in the two teams.

With our current injury level we are not in the same league as Carlton.

Unfortunately A hiding coming up I think

    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,

    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
