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.

Personally I think Sunday evening is the best. I don't finish work until 9pm every weekday and Saturday nights will rule out a few I think.

If I have to miss it such is life it needs to be a date which will suit the greatest majority but my personal preference would be a Sunday night.

Thanks, the MFCs newest member; 'Viney', is doing quite well despite her mum's persistence in calling her by some other name.

I agree with the idea but the great thing about UF is the connection you have with the other competitors. With trades and everything happening during the year you begin to make somewhat of an alliance

I don't quite understand why people think that teams aren't trying because of the Keeper rule. If it wasn't for keeper and teams were still struggling we'd still have the same problem - that's fantas

I will be signing up shortly lads.

Forgot my password & just waiting for the reset to land in the e-mail

Thumbs up from me on the Sunday Draft suggestion.

I am still digesting JA's scoring system options, I think I am leaning towards the Scoring catergory deciding the tie with a Win not a loss.

Early days we can work through the best scoring dynamics over the next few weeks,

Pumped to be back!

Sunday evening works for me as well, now set for 7:30pm 4th march.

Fantastic!

Like the new setup JA, the 4-4 with Score % counting as only half a stat seems fair and reasonable too. I had Riewoldt last year so him and Trav Cloke you need not fear picking haha.

In regards to the opposite draft order to last year I don't think admin will have the ability to select picking order I think its all generated by computer but correct me if i'm wrong Jattack.

Happy to do it that way if it works though- be an honour taking pick 18 :)

I have the ability to adjust the draft order for the first round. But I am shying away from straight out reverse ladder.

The off season has given me time to dream up a kind of lottery/bidding system that I think has some merit. More on that later.

Keeper leagues are supported by ufooty (where you keep some or all of your players from the previous year) and I think the idea has merit but if we do implement it I think we should start from scratch this year with a view to keeping a set few players for next year.

My Password reset just isn't turning up in the inbox @ the minute.

If it hasn't arrived tommorow I will register again.

The Keeper concept is interesting.

I reckon it would be an interesting twist if we kept our MVP player from 2011 this year.

One player only, one position only - then lets run with the lottery selection process.

Just putting it out there!

Any interest in another league - ideally where people are commited to participating throughout the whole season? I'm happy to set it up unless anyone else wants to.

Yes, I'd definitely be in for this (assuming I can't get into the "A-League").

Can someone forward the invite to JCB as well. I can't PM him due to a lockout i'm guessing?

JCB is currently suspended JA. He's suspension I think finishes on the 25th of Feb. So it's most likely that I'd say....or his PM's are full and can't receive any PM's. If that's the case he'll need to empty his inbox.

savoydee - please pass on info for JCB's return. Thanks.

I have contacted JCB- He is in- offered to pay. Please advise new ID or how he gains entry to the Ultimate site-does he use his old ID & Password.

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated by him..

He can use same details for logging on as last year to the site, but tell him to use the details JA gave for league number and password posted earlier. Then he's in.

.....Or if he's forgotten last years login, re-register, then choose invited league, enter code and password JA provided.

Good work IWAP!

Happy to help if you have any questions in regards to set up.

I avoided captains for our league. Could add an interesting dynamic.

JCB says thanks, however, he has asked for league ID & PASSWORD as JA cannot contact him. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.I will ring him with these details after gaining it.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    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.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    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
