  • 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.


Neeld in Our Current Trakkie Top

You're going to an awful lot of effort to one up me on this one Rp. You've made a good case ... but since you've brought a soccer style theme into it, I'll have to say no cigar on an equalizer.

You're going to have to do better to beat my keeper.

It's still ... Range Rover 1 - Rpfc 0

It needs a Latin motto.

I was thinking Acta non verba.

I can't stand this current Top our Coaching Team wear.

* Bailey looked stupid dressed in this top for 4 Years

* Todd Viney looks all wrong in this gear

& I hate to say it but Neeld looks all wrong also in this gear..

FFS reverse the Red & Blue & make this top look mean & lean instead of bright & gay.

Am I on my own here? I know its very minor in the scale of things however it has [censored] me off for years

& seeing Neeld in this top today just reinforced my thoughts.

OMR- We need to give him the Ultimate footy look-I agree with ya.

FWIW in this exhilarating debate I'm another big fan of our logo, but I can't say I'm a fan of the training apparel. Mind you it's very low on my list of concerns with the club!

I imagine they'll bring out a new line with new sponsors.

Cannot say I agree with you re the logo IMO it is way too busy but not something i worry too much about.

The Logo is the Logo is the Logo.

It happens every year, the key for all is to get a sense of humour.

Some are incapable of finding said sense and they usually end up in the land of BigFooty arguing with 13 year old Richmond supporters that 'while we are not flying at the minute, we don't suck donkey ....'

Spoke to Schwabby a while ago and he told me the Dees wanted to 'own' the colour red - hence he's not too keen to change it.

Rode past Gosch's this AM and the boys were training in their new gear. It is predominantly a very dark navy with a small blood red yoke (mini version of our jumper). The other training top is the reverse of this. It looked good.

Maybe the reason they went with the RED top is that the kids can get it signed by the favorite players, bit hard to do with the blue one. I don't mind the RED tops but I think the polo looks like a primary school kids top that has been in the hamper too long, would be better to be a micro fibre slim line top (in Red)

Swooper next time you speak to him ask him what colour the scarf will be for 2012.

If he wants to "own the colour red" can he get a red scarf not the bloody maroon one we had this year please

Hey rfpc, this thread is a bit out of character for you. You getting some lately? New GF? Love it though...

Nah, same missus.

I get like this every off-season.

Hannibal/Lone Wolf/Glengarry Glen Ross/Tweed Pig/Trav 20 thinks I am 'unreadable' but I disagree.

One of my pet hates is our coaching panel getting about in suit pants and polo shirts. Just look horrible. If they are wearing suit pants then its collar (no logos thereon) and tie. If they are wearing the more sponsor friendly polo then its a more business casual trouser.

Quite like the new 2012 training gear. Actually looks like it was designed especially for us rather than being generic sportwsear designer mess.

    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.

About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
