  • 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.

Has been an ornament to the game. Wish him well wherever he goes/whatever he does. Anyone who thinks otherwise seriously has NFI. Track record says wherever he went they were left a better place. Not sure if he would have fit the mould at demonland or of demonland would have readjusted to fit Mick. His deputy will do just fine for us, I'm sure if mark has a question for Mick he'll be at the end of the line and will give an honest answer. Thanks for the memories Mick (even though not many are good from our end)

Eddie and Mick have made the Pies a force in the AFL.

I hope the MFC can emulate the feat.

Don't get the hatred - our coach is our coach primarily because Mick Malthouse was his mentor and is a huge wrap for him.

And our Garry Lyon trusted the word of Mick Malthouse...

Shock horror.

What?

Time to further loosen your attitude rpfc. But M&M is just a candy baby, on the outside....poor baby.

Now let's just get our facts right here...

Is M&M the best coach in the business, as he was a few weeks ago? Or is Chris Scott the best coach in the business?

Perhaps we should have 'gone after' Chris, being a premiership coach, or should we have gone after Bomber Thompson (who was 'out of control' at 3/4 time duting Essendons final - he had no idea).

You smart-arsed people, on these boards, who 'go for the best available "coach"' are full of crap.

Oh, yeah, Let's get M&M and pay him a $1,000,000 a year.

Great for footy, especially great for the MFC. I would have been devastated had this hack come to Melboune. His success was a result of his 'line' coaches, which were finally premiership quality after his 11 years at the helm. M&M did Nothing!

Neeld is one of the main reasons Collin#$*d had success. Now we have him and I am delighted. He was not a part of the Collin@#$% disintegration.

I always said M&M was not woth a sh_t.

I am delighted that Geelong won the Flag.

It's amazing how people such as yourself can watch years of AFL football but have no clue about the game!!

A good effort really.

MM has left a legacy, despite the views of a couple of blind gits who obviously wouldn't know their arse from their elbow. Aside from Footscray, every club he has touched was a basket case when he came and a powerhouse when he left. There is no arguing that FACT. I am glad we got Neeld not Malthouse, but to try and diminish his influence on, and status in the game is just foolish Filth hatred. I hate them too, but not to the point of foolishness.

It's called 'selective judgement', my friend. And I love it! Don't give me [censored] about who knows waht!

Mick Malthouse had a solid coaching career and I tilt my hat to him. Can't say I like him, but I the respect the man.

As for Mick going forward, I think 2012 is a year for him to reflect. He could go the way of a David Parkin and spend the rest of his days in the football wilderness, or Mick could come back to a club in some role. You don't spend that long in footy and walk way without in skills. He still has much to teach, and plenty to offer. Although I do get the impression he may have coached his last game as a head coach in this league. Could be of great use to a GWS or GC Suns team.

Good luck to him.

Were the Bulldogs a powerhouse when Malthouse left?

    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

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

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

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
