  • 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.

6 Rivers - I thought he was an absolute stand out all night. I haven't been his biggest fan, but he was fantastic.

5 Mckenzie - I've been saying it this year, I reckon this guy is our glue. He's that heart and soul of the middle and is slipping into top form quickly.

4 Martin - What more needs to be said. More touches than the 3 Bombers talls together.

3 Gysberts - Classy, busy and damaging

This is where it gets hard for me!

2 Trengove - The kid is just all class.

1 Scully - If for no other reason than the fact he's played half a game of footy at any level in 4 months and can still come in and be a force over the duration of the game. Kicked a very important goal as well.

6 - McKenzie (amazing tank, tackling/intensity and 2nd 3rd efforts. Potential upside....scary)

5 - Rivers (best game in years. Getting back to his solid best)

4 - Martin (led the way from the 1st bounce with many first touches and nice disposal to advantage. Improving tank/efforts/execution slowly each week. Best game for mine so far)

3 - Jones (led the way with the intensity and attack on the ball carrier all day. Capable of taking himself to a new level from here if he keeps this up)

2 - Gysberts (couldn't split with Bennell...2 each if i could. Great link man and line running. A few more pre-seasons to build tank and body & to start sticking some tackles and... HELLO!)

1 - Bennell (sublime finish both outside & in close. Option selection 1st rate in most cases. Burnt off opponents giving us that extra chaos and unpredictability creating space & time for others to work their magic. And dare i say it, straightens us up through the middle when he's thereabouts with his ability to find players running forward!)

Apologies to MacDonald, Moloney, Jetta, Evans (amazing 3rd game and great work rate!) & Howe (adds an extra dimension to our forward line and some good work up the ground as well! Loved his attack on the ball and carrier. Exciting 1st up game.)

1. Blanket over everyone else but I will go with Howe.

Honestly, there was not a single pllayer who did not put their hand up, even the usual whipping boys stood up and the newbies showed poise and effort.

    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.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the
