  • 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.

I enjoyed it EGD. Gutsy effort in crap conditions.

I'm not the only one asking the question re Scully.

OK but your position on Scully is pretty clear. Do you honestly think he didnt sing the song with his team mates cos hes goin to GWS? HA HA HA laughable....

I've seen guys with knee recos, concussion, broken bones make it to the circle for the song. It is slightly strange. The only excuse for it is if he's left the ground for x rays or something.

Except the song wasn't sung in the rooms, it was sung in the cool room up on the ground.

Scully was in the rooms getting treatment, and probably had no idea the boys were going to sing the song up there. WTF was he meant to do? Run out of the rooms mid treatment after guessing the players weren't going to come into the rooms for the song? FFS, why are we making such a big deal about it!

Oh no, Scully farted, quick he's going to GWS, get your booing voice ready! :rolleyes:

Must be gone then.

:rolleyes:

Just had a thread deleted with 3 worthless replies like yours....... All I asked was why Scully would not join the huddle with his boys to sing our song. I have seen countless players join in with bad injuries including Grimes who had a broken foot whilst on crutches. I wasn't suggesting he is off to GWS in fact I have always thought he'd stay and simply was concerned and all I got was smart a## dribble as replies. Thanks.

It's getting ridiculous isn't it? You can't even ask a simple question about the guy anymore without the censors stepping in.

It's a valid question.

Stupid reply thinking everyone is on the page that he must be gone cos he didn't sing the song. I just noticed he wasn't there and wondered if he was hurt more badly than first thought, back up a bit.

Here here and it is so true, you mention Scully and so many members or moderators jump down your throat assuming you must be against Scully or sure he's leaving. Just and observation guys. If Trenners went off in the last with a knee in the back and didn't join in the song and I asked why he wasn't there? Would you delete my thread?

Valid in what sense RR? We all know why you raised it, but as I said, you also probably saw reds under the bed in the 60's.

If Col Sylvia or Stef Martin didn't show up, I'd ask the same question.

Other people noticed and asked as well.

It's rare for a player not to front for the club song unless they can't get off a stretcher or have gone to hospital.

If you've played footy or been around football clubs, you would know this.

Give it a rest and go and check under your bed... I heard there may be some reds under it.

With what we now know about Eastern Europe and its structure and influence following the breakdown of the Soviet bloc, it is now generally acknowleged that there were in fact truly

Kinda the wrong thread for anything too rational.....

Come on guys, I am sure there was a very reasonable explanation to him not being there but I can only imagine the reason the other thread was

deleted was to stop the endless spread of Tom Scully threads and keep all opinions no matter what in the one place. Nothing more conspiratorial than that.

WTF?? Because of how you are going about it... just a simple "he is probably just still getting treatment" would have done it, but as soon as you mention Scully around here you are shot down with fast witted replies, a question about any other would have got a normal response.

Then how about we just go with your rational response and say.....

"he is probably just still getting treatment", which I'm sure is absolutely accurate.

And we all move on :) !!!

Oh, I took your comment as an attempt at facetious humour. It wasn't?

No, it was an account of a far more probable explanation than your idiotic, irrational and frankly boring need to turn anything Scully related into a negative.

Move on and just wait patiently until this contract issue is resolved. You're boring everyone half to death with this repeated [censored].

You don't know more than any of us on this matter, in fact, you probably know less, so just shut the hell up about it until you have something new and proven to add, and stop negatively portraying a MELBOURNE FOOTBALLER (and yes, he is still a Melbourne footballer).

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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
