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.

Thats where Ned Kelly got it wrong.

Had he been wearing a Pies jumper at Stringbark creek he could have gone up before the MRP and had his 3 shooting charges downgraded from intentional to reckless

Reckless Kelly - slightly humourous movie, but no Young Einstein.

He's having a laugh isn't he?

I'm not so sure Jack, a few players have been given weeks in recent years for the slightest.

One was a Collingwood player if I'm not mistaken, possibly also a Saints players? In the pocket at the Dome?

Daisy's appeal failed. Still out for a week.

Hrm...if his appeal failed already, he'd be out for two...

Ah OK, I didn't realise his good record still applied.

Thomas out - good news.

A mate of mine just told me he was following the proceedings on the AFL website where Mark Macgugan 'live' states the arguments the lawyers are making, allows people to post comments and answers some questions. But he censored any posts my mate made which commented negatively on the defence evidence presented. Typical sham AFL.

Upped from 122 points with a guilty plea to 168 points, so still only one week.

Think they were grasping at straws suggesting the arm swing was aimed at the ball.

Yes. I hope his coach doesn't think he was cheating by making such a patently absurd claim.

Yeah, one of the more ridiculous defences I've heard. The ball was nowhere near at the time and in any event, I've never seen a player try to clear the ball from the bottom of a pack with a roundhouse. Ever.

We are in with a show this week make no bones about it. Match up well in defence, two of their best three out, our tails up ..... Said it in another thread, a QB boilover is brewing.

Be careful. Collingwood players will be fired up to prove they can win without some of their stars.

Of course if we win, it will be because of their outs. If we lose excrement will be lowered onto us given the circumstances. Hmmm, a lose lose situation.....

lol trying to knock the ball away.... If I was on the MRP I would have been flat out insulted. The ball was already meters away from the contest, and Daisy had his head up looking at the play. He really deserves 2 but oh well, same diff to us. If Tappy was back I would have actually half wanted him to play. Anybody see Josh Hunt on the weekend against the bulldogs? Our Tappy is not too far off that level I reckon!

If we win this, it's a big win whatever the outs are. Their depth is excellent, ours is kids with under 10 games experience.

I fear their lesser names, one of them always seems to get under our guard, like Dick.

It's about time Moloney dominated the clearances against a good team, this for me is the key to getting close / winning, we match up well in a lot of places, but we need Moloney to lead the kids out of the middle.

Playing in Collingwoods forward half will be instant death.

    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
