    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.

The playing group should not accept this. It is not just one game next season that they will need to make a stand, it is seasons to come. He did the best thing for himself, which in turn, has hurt the Melbourne Football Club, MY football club. The current playing group MUST draw this "line" in the sand.

While the sky is still well above us, and will be in the same spot tomorrow, this is a very dark day for the Melbourne Football Club. We need to get Ross Lyon or Mick Malthouse, otherwise I strongly believe we will hit rock bottom for the next decade.

When he plays Melbourne next year we should all throw monopoly money at him.

Seriously though, the way that he's handled this has been extremely poor, to notify the club while he was in Sydney is absolutely disgraceful. Look at how Davis and ward did it in comparison, those two players took the money but they did it was integrity and grace. They looked their club in the eye and did it the hard way. Scully though scampered up to Sydney and made the announcement up there.

Weak as [censored].

Okay. I need to know something... Do we get 5 years to use our draft picks??? Cause obviously we are going to lose our first round pick for Jack Viney next year and it's regarded as a strong draft. Where as this year is regarded as a weak draft.

Someone please help

6 Million over 5 years and 2 Million up front.

Would any of you knock back 2 million dollars going into your bank account?

He knew when he pulled out of the last game V Port,he'd played his last game at the G,and avoided all the last game with the boys stuff in Adelaide.

Small 20 year old with a baulky knee that can't kick. I think we dodged a bullet

At last! Some reality.

Well said UC>

Losing a Trengove or a Watts is my idea of disaster. Not this contrived crap from the AFL/GWS/SCully camp.

Bring on Ross Lyon

It was obvious months ago that Scully would be gone

Who can blame the kid if you got offered that much money wouldnt you?

However as a Melbourne supporter I am extremely disappointed still in a number of aspects

The speculation about Scully throughout the season was damaging .

The amount of money Scully is to get is absurd !

The AFL is responsible for this in more ways then one

My last comment is held for how we obtained Scully and what we as supporters endured in the hope of landing him . Just goes to show that it doesnt pay.

The Melbourne Football Club must put this all behind them now. Land a Better than just Good Coach.

The Players must learn about Pride in their club and never say die . Even if you are getting thrashed the next coach must install in them that Pride.

It is a Marvelous tool and all I can say is maybe just maybe if Scully had had pride in his club he would never have gone. But he has so now we must deal with it and the MFC needs to stand up to the AFL

and obtain the best deal they can for our club out of this sorry Saga

How many membership renewals are being sent back to the club today?

Not mine.

The club showed good sense in not upping the ante any more.

If he had stayed it would have only been for the money - not the club.

Lets put our focus back on the current players and getting a coach who can take us to a flag(s)

Scully gone yep taken the cash, who can blame him really...

It is now time for MFC to make a stand for ONCE!!! In regards to the compensation imagine if it was collingwood who lost a number 1 draft pick after 2 yrs, the up roar. MFC Stand up and be counted, show some fight, show some leadership, stop being constantly walked over and putting up with second best!

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    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.
