  • 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.

3 of our best backline out

4 of our best midfield out

Jurrah is clearly injured.

What the hell did you expect?

More excuses, just what we need.

Ah Benno, I find it very difficult to judge him when all he's got are spuds, and those spuds clearly aren't playing to the game plan (unless that game plan is to constantly kick to a 4 on 1, which if so definitely sack him!).

It's not excuses, it's a FACT. This week, and the next couple are irrelevant for anything but identifying talent that's not up to it. There's no point getting upset, we have no cattle at the moment. Tomorrow's game has more relevance that tonights game.

Hahahhaha. Look at the two teams. Look at them on paper.

We are a 10 goal worse team. He coached to win the game. Had we played up the corridor we would have lost by 100.

Dean's struggling but he'll be fine. The players also need to play for him.

If i remember John Worsfold was the coach most under pressure 12 weeks ago. Now he's controlling when he wants to renew his contract...

I sat at the punt road end. I realized that our forward structure was useless. The team looked like its coach was a dead man walking. If he needs advice from lethal, why don't we just get lethal to coach us. Tonights game was crap. Boring footy. I could coach better.

Why did we change our game plan for tonight? What was our game plan anyway? Play a loose man back and our forwards up? This was coaching ten years ago. He doesn't understand the modern game i feel.

I disagree, look at every marking contest he's been involved in lately. He's barely getting two feet off the ground, I'd like to either see him have a week or a spell at casey with limited game time. The commentators seemed to think he's hampered as well so I'm not seeing it with rose-coloured glasses.

John Worsfold had a few more runs on the board than Bailey though. Coaching for his career for the rest of the season, but unfortunately for him he is doing it with half a list.

BS. No game is irrelevant. Wheres the passion, wheres the hardness every player who is out there should have this irrespective of the injuries. Even when we did have a near full team against the Hawks and WC we got smashed.

He couldnt do it with a full list, so injuries wont make any difference.

Jurrah does not have the tank to push up and back as often as he is doing in the first half, then by half time he is stuffed.

And we don't have a forward line, we have a few players hanging around the middle outnumbered for our backs to kick in the general direction hoping it will go out fdor a boundary throw in.

Agree.

What do players learn from this sort of rubbish and what an insult to supporters

    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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you his observations from this morning's Captain's Run including some hints at the changes for our ANZAC Eve clash against the Tigers. Sunny, though a touch windy, this morning, 23 of them no emergencies.  Forwards out first. Harrison Petty, JvR, Jack Billings, Kade Chandler, Kozzy, Bayley Fritsch, and coach Stafford.  The backs join them, Steven May, Jake Lever, Woey, Judd McVee, Blake Howes, Tom McDonald

    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
