  • 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.

Well that rubbish nearly made me vomit. I'm just glad that Fox Sports cut it short and I didn't have to listen to Sheedy talking [censored]. I love how when he was asked when he came to the decision, his response was along the lines of - well, as I said, I just came up here yesterdy, and I've now signed with GW$. Bollocks! He actually couldn't even say, yesterday, or this morning or last week.

He dodged the "when did you decide to leave question" and the nuff nuff reporter didn't even try and get a straight answer from him.

correct......he answered " i just signed the contract today" but that wasn't the question Tom. His answer was deceptive, and for anyone still wondering if he is a liar, they should have no doubts now.

I actually believe him, that he didnt meet them until post season, and he didnt decide till post season, just as he said at the start of the year. No reason not to believe that.

It is just for the money - he's leaving finals opportunity and family and friends.

But lets look at some recent losses

Bruce - can't get a game at Hawks

Brock - can't get a game at Carlton, wouldnt have got a game at Mwelbourne, and got great draft swap.

Scully - chronic injuries, may not even make 6 weeks let alone 6 years and look at the compo we will get!

On top of their poor form generally GWS announced this presser which conflicted with one for Adam Goodes on his 300th game.

Goodes is a real star of the game who has quietly gone about doing a lot of work in the community.

Very very poor form from GWS.

I think we should put Jordan McMahon in Demonland Hall of Fame?

Because if not for him we would have lost scully and not have Trengove

Not the most accurate call.

If we won that game, Richmond would've had the first pick and chosen Scully, we'd have still received Trengove with pick 2, and we wouldn't be getting any compensation picks.

So he still did us a favour, but it's a choice between getting Scully compensation and no Scully compensation, not Trengove and no Trengove.

Considering we might be able to use it in a "super draft" or to get this O'Meara kid, it's still worth quite a bit.

Arrrggghhhh!!! :mad:

I'm very angry at this! Tom Scully went for the money $$$$ it's plain and simple!

All I can say is that the Melbourne Football Club better scream and yell at the AFL to make sure that we get compensation picks to make up for losing our number 1# draft pick from 2009!

We deserve at least two top 10 draft picks just like Geelong got for losing Gary Ablett Junior!

The Melbourne Football Club needs to stand up to the AFL and let them know that we will NOT be screwed over!

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
