Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

For anyone subscribed to Netflix, I can heartily recommend the following series:

Nobody’s Looking - a Brazilian comedy about guardian angels

The Neighbour - a Spanish comedy about a super hero

I agree. I don't want to talk about it though in case people haven't seen it yet. Very impressed with the whole series.

The Newsreader was great. Outstanding writing, acting and production values. Set in the 80s so of particular interest to oldies. I think it's still on iview.

I thought Total Control would be as good as The Newsreader. It's OK but nowhere near as good. Same with Fires.

The 4th and final season of Goliath was brilliant ... of course, I am a big fan of Billy Bob Thornton but the whole cast really nailed series 4

Set in dark, damp Chinatown (San Fransisco) series 4 is for 'Noir' fans. Be prepared to be surprised ... the best show I've seen this year!

And the first season of 'Only Murders in the Building' was very funny and very entertaining

Marty Short & Steve Martin were just mesmerisingly good ... and there's more to come.  The sort of show you can watch on repeat

I liked it all but season 4 was terrific.  The show was also about so much more than the courtroom drama's that eventuated

But that's just my view ... each to their own

I thought season 1 was great with all the dynamics (ex partner ex wife etc) but after that...

Have you seen Bosch? Great plot but the back story is like watching CFC highlights

No but Bosch is on the list ... to be honest, I've been flat-out at work during lockdown working enormous hours for the last 2 years

Quietened off already so time to catch up on movies & TV drama

There's probably 10 good shows that I don't know of ... a bit out of touch!  Bosch soon enough though ... at least the first 3 eps

Yeah seen 'em all ... Sling Blade was a tremendous film (BBob)

I can remember debating the worth of True Detective S2 with AF here.  I really liked it and thought with time, it might be appreciated better.   But there again I'm a Colin Farrell fan as well (how good was 'In Bruges'!)

Still haven't seen True Detective series 3 ... any good?

Better Call Saul is very good. Others such as Ozark & Homeland are good

And we're going to see another series of Dexter ... that'll be interesting

True Detective - got half way the 2nd series.....

Better Call Saul - I was into Breaking Bad but got nearly to the end;  I asked a friend how did it end and they said What do you think?, so I stopped.

Ozark - yes. (There is a line in there where the wife says she would like to start a new life in the middle of nowhere, Mullumbimby, which is inland from Byron Bay. Obviously the writer has been out that way)

Any comedy or sci fi?

Curb your Enthusiasm new series has started out ... as previously mentioned Only Murders in the Building

'Barry' is good, The Kominsky Method is decent

As for Sci-fi ... got a bit to catch up on as there is a bit about

'Dark' is supposed to be good,  Glitch season 3 to watch.  Have they made any more of 'Black Mirror'?

Dexter* is back and the first episode was very good ... I'd give it an 8.5/10

A few surprises and a totally different location but a fair bit to work with re the new (and old) characters

Yellowstone is terrific ... watched the first 2 episodes and I'm already hooked

 

*The official Showtime podcast is available through Podbay ... Michael C Hall features on the first podcast of the new series

The Dexter New Blood series has finished

Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable revisit but with a few unanswered plot-holes 

But satisfying nonetheless especially when considering how the original series finished off

So no spoilers right now as many might not have watched as yet

Quite liked Barry,  though the 2nd season has some stupid plot lines.

I am also watching You on the Flix though it is getting a tad repetitive.  Worth a good look.

After Life Season 3 on Netflix- excellent.  Reservation Dogs on Foxtel - fantastic.  100 Foot Wave on Foxtel - terrific.  Mandalorian on the Disney Channel - fantastic.  Hellbound (Korean) on Netflix - fantastic.

2 Mini-series that are above average good for their genre.  Both best described as  meandering horror with some real mystery thrown in

'The Outsider' (Stephen King) & 'Midnight Mass' (Mike Flanagan)

I have been watching the Flight Attendant....there are flash backs forwards ups and downs, lots of drinking, noise, shouting etc....I think it would be just as enjoyable if you played the episodes out of order (see also Killing Eve)

I'm not the best TV watcher at the best of times but I've been giving the documentary version of The Staircase a go and I'm right into it. Anyone seen it?

The documentary is fantastic. Inside the legal team bunker during the running of the hearing is rarely seen. Very interesting viewing and a few twists along the way. Loved it.

No, but I might take a look, layz

Just watched the 1st episode of 'The Old Man' starring Jeff Bridges & John Lithgow and I'm hooked already ... Action/Mystery/Thriller

The 2nd series of 'Only Murders in the Building' is out ... it's a lot of fun esp if one likes Steve Martin & Marty Short

    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

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim
