  • 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.

Haven't seen DL this fired up, but understandably so.

I am so p-ssed off I actually don't want to watch any finals even including the GF. I just couldn't care less. 

Have even stopped watching 360 and AFL tonight.

But the 75 year plan to win our 13 flag is still on track.

Good things come to he who waits!

Not sure which thread to post this...

I congratulate Dusty Martin on staying at the Tigers. Awesome for the Tiges and for the competition. As stated in the media ab announcement will be made b4 the Tiges final and possibly by the end of the week.

I would hate to see them lose the best player in the comp to a rival for money only. Tiges are flying and he will make more money there in the long run being a one club player.

As a Dees supporter we missed out Dusty! I feel the same with Charlie Curnow in 5 years time...

Anyone else notice Glen Archer got a fine and conviction for assaulting the official on the field during his son's game? Claimed is was self defense. He ran onto the field of play due to a fight between two players and he honestly believes he was defending himself! Lol! The umpire and a runner asked him to leave, but he thought he'd punch the runner in the face, breaking his glasses. He told the magistrate off in court upon hearing her decision and his lawyer had to tell him to sit down. Too funny! 

Another AFL idol who thinks he can do no wrong and the rules apply to others.

It's his second conviction for assault. Wonder if this still permits him to remain a board member at Norf. No doubt their constitution is rubbery enough to cover this.

Don't know why I let this team upset me so much. 11 years of crap and finals there for the taking and we dish up that pathetic first quarter and only a slightly better rest of the game, against a depleted young side playing for nothing other than some pride. Then again we probably have none.

I should have stuck to banana smoothies and forgot about the footy.

My god Mr Leg your are really [censored] off. Never seen you like this before. It is the MFC surely after all these years you are used to failure. Think of all the other great things in your family. You are blessed. It is just a bloody football team.

I've gone back to my 'failsafe' stance with Melb.

Anything spoken or written is bullshlt.

I know all that and obviously appreciate the important things in life, but as you say and I am not even sure why, a week later, but I am still really p-ssed off with the players and coaches.They let the fans and themselves down and wasted a golden opportunity to have some finals experience, give everyone some reward for the rotten years, enhance sponsorship, membership, fixture  and recruit opportunities, but they just blew it big time. That still really annoys me.

I  have heard a number of the younger players are planning to train the house down this pre season like it's never been trained down before. 

How's that for a start ???

A week down the track I am way more annoyed that there has been no comment from the coach, CEO or head of the FD. 

However I had a lovely breakfast of bananas and Greek yogurt this morning it has made my day.

    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

    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.

    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
