  • 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.

Seems it’s gone the way of the Joel Smith tests positive thread aka the Demonland Bermuda Triangle.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

Casey is going to be a big side this year. Obvious why they got rid of Fev.

yes I am really interested to see how Williams performs.

Nice to see a recruit who is not a skinny development project.

Folks ... I think this thread is going to peter out unless we find a new angle.

Who do we have on our list to fulfil the role that the unmentionable one was set for before he jumped ship?

Would have thought Gysberts or even Evans.

J.Viney may be the comparable one..unfortunately. Even though he isn't quite on the list, just in presence.

I find it impossible to read anything into the changes, but surely someone will find a way!

(it's obviously the off season, the drafts are done and dusted, and there's bugger all to discuss).

I'll go with Gysberts, but he'll need to develop his engine x lots.

I think in its in the public interest to discuss the Prime Minister's wage of $485k p.a. At first, I considered this to be an obscenity and then I thought about it and when I took into account that one AFL footballer with a wonky knee is going to take home $2m next year and his old man is going to get $2k per week watching 17 & 18 y.os running around on the weekend, I came to the conclusion that Julia's pay is just about right.

Many posters on this particular thread would be familiar with the influence of Molly Meldrum over the years.

Molly is currently in a coma after a fall at his home.

Yes, he's been weird and whacky at times and he barracks for St. Kilda but he's been a lovable part of the scene since his Kommotion days.

Let's pray for his return to good health.

Agree 100% WJ

I was rung last night by my daughter at 9.00 PM she had just heard it on the radio.

I am surprised how much it has affected me.

Absolutely. Molly has been an integral part of the Australian popular music scene for almost as long as I can remember. Weird and whacky definitely, but also a key part of the structure. Get well soon Molly.

I have worked with Molly a few times over the Years....He is part of the Furniture..Terrible in front of a camera, But we did get this piece of Genius in 1980 because of Molly's complete incompetence

Let us also remember that Molly back in '66 fainted during the last quarter of the Grand Final, thus missing the Saints win the flag! He was a cheer squad member...Hahaha my favourite Molly story!!

Bob Hawke's reaction always cracks me up!!

I always loved the fact that Bob coined the phrase " little Johnny Howard" to describe his opponent, when in fact Howard is a couple of inches taller than Bob. I have met both a few times and can vouch for that.

PS. John Howard is an extremely friendly man and whether you come from his side of Politics or not, you have to admit that he tried to improve the country. Bob and his sucessor Paul Keating unlike Howard ended up making millions from their political contacts and it always leaves me wondering about them.

Any way back to the real issues on this thread and yes readers I had a banana smoothie this morning for breakfast at Phamish in St. Kilda. It was ok but should have been colder.

    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,

    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
