  • 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.

Like others here, I respect Tiger fans for staying staunch in hard times, but tell me, is there a more pig ignorant bunch of supporters for any club?

Their ridiculous cries of 'ball' every time an opposition player is tackled are simply pathetic.

I think it is more out of desperation to see their team come back into the contest.

I'm sure some will be crying foul with the umpires today, but we had just as many 50/50s going against us, particularly early on in the match.

I had the pleasure of sitting behind 4 teenage boys, with the combined IQ of a cockroach. They got stuck into everyone from Jack Watts to Jim Stynes. It took a lot of self control not to punch them all in the head.

I appreciate the passion that Tigers' supporters show, but these guys made singing the song after the game just that much sweeter.

Shameful to think that these idiots are the future of our country, I'd be surprised if they know how to count to 10.

Conversely, I had a whole bunch of Toiges supporters around me and they were okayish, but there were a few unsavoury comments. Agree, the song was sweet, but for me, the highlight was paying homage to Jordan McMahon for delivering us 'The General' Jacky T. There were a few quiet murmurings after that...it was great!

I have a friend who is, without doubt, one of the best blokes you could ever meet, who is a Richmond supporter. He claims that being put in the same collective group as other Richmond supporters is more difficult to endure than the Tigers' woes over the years.

Sat next to a really friendly, though rough-as-guts looking, tiger supporter at ground level of the Ponsford stand. To my surprise, out of nowhere he greeted me 'good luck' before the game, and shook my hand after the match to congratulate me/us. What a lovely bloke. Totally changed my preconceived ideas about RFC supporters...

this s how dumb they are some guy called MMM and said if they had been given the freekicks we were they would of won by 12 goals......hahahahahaha

Heard that. There was stunned silence before Gary answered. Absolutely brainless.I couldnt believe how they walked out before the siren.The team at least played right to the very end but they couldn't even stay to support their own. Obviously thought they were a shoe in to win.

The umpiring was pretty average all game, but it was no consequence to the result. If we kicked straight we would've rolled them by a million points.

The fact that they were screaming for holding the ball so much is an indictment on them for not having possession enough!

Sat in the Richmond members area with some friends down in the pocket in the old Olympic stand, about 15 minutes into the quarter i spotted a young fellow MFC supporter who i normally sit with at home games.

He had been sitting up the front, but when i spotted him he was retreating away from the boundary because he was copping too much abuse from the people around him; so we shuffled over and he sat with us for the game about 10 rows back. Even there we still copped the typical "Go home you filth" all game.

While we clapped and cheered the goals and stood up for the courageous umpires and some of their finest work, we were not untoward or overtly ignorant/arrogant in any fashion. Yet with 15 minutes to go in the final quarter, one of the Richmond faithful decided that on his way out up the stairs, he would stop and throw his half full cup of beer in our faces before running away up the stairs.

Clearly not all supporters can be generalized by his actions, but what a pack of feral scum bags we sat with today.

I heard him (on the car radio in the carpark!) too, and the both of us had a good laugh over that! Yes, there were some funny decisions, but they went both ways, we got some we probably didn't deserve, but so did they. So the umpiring really had no effect on the contest. Go to the HS website and have a laugh reading all the Tigers supporters blaming the umpires for their loss today. The Tigers played well I thought, we just played better. :lol:

Pretty ridiculous to have preconcieved ideas about any supporters, and even more ridiculous to have one person change them. I have been to games against all teams where I came away thinking they were the worst of the worst, and I have been to game where I came away thinking they were all lovely. I've seen MFC supporters who I wouldn't even talk to let alone befriend, and I've met filth supporters who are awesome people. And for the record, I don't own a Chalet at Mt Hotham, drive a Range Rover or live in Toorak.

Can't wait for the follow up to this post when you realize your wallet is missing.

I took my 15yo cousin who is a Richmond supporter (most of my family are), and there was a split second hand laid on Nicholson, I'm talking one tenth of a second, when my cousin and a chorus of the toothless yelled "ball!" Nicho was long gone dashing through the middle... I looked at my cuz and we both laughed, he realizes how stupid his tribe is.

The funniest thing I've heard in a long time was a toigs fan ringing triple M saying if it wasn't for the umpires Richmond would have won by 12 goals...... he's trippin'

I think Nicho broke every Richmond tackle didn't he...Top game from number 49. Go Dees.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
