  • 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.

I must share my frustrations

FACTS: We have no major sponsor and the pre-season is 2 weeks away. We were in a similiar position the last time we were sponsorless

We are the worst represtened club in terms of merchandise in AFL stores state wide

Our branding has not grown at all in 10 years.

We are near last in terms of social media 'Likes' and 'Followings'

We were the laughing stock of the AFL last year when we played in 'Pink' jumpers all season after Mr Schwabby wanted to return to the 'deep' red of the 60's.

We have an apparel sponsor that sucks.

We have no innovative of forward thinking merchandise.

The new 'emblem' looks great when produced in large print, but is totally undesirable for thumbnaail reproduction.

- You may all see these as little things, but to me it stinks of laziness and 2nd rate attitudes by those that are responsible for selling the club. Call it an agenda if you like, i don't care much.

EDIT: Spelling

Can someone please give me a scalpel so I can slash my wrists over the The look of the new 'emblem' as it is totally undesirable for thumbnaail reproduction.......

My God - this is awful, I don't know how I can continue living knowing our emblem is no good for thumbnaail reporoduction... Seriously StillWoewodin22, get a life. If such minor things like thumbnaails annoy you then I could only imagine what the general feeling is in your household: 100% stress, 100% of the time... Take a couple hundred valiums and calm the hell down......

I doubt it but it is not impossible.

3 of the 4 beat us comfortably last year!

It is not an easy road being a Dees supporter but when you loose your sense of reason it is time to change.

If it gives people as much pain on Feb. 8th as some on here are displaying today then get a new past time as it is not worth it.

Having said that a zero 4 start will have me a little [censored].

Me too Old Dee but it will not be the end of the world. What I was trying to say is that I expect the game plan will take a few rounds to be understood and complied with. I expect us to be alot better over the whole year. People on this site expect us to be world beaters from round 1

What we have is a new FD with the much the same Cattle.

Hopefully this will improve us quite a bit but I will be surprised if we do perform a lot better than in 2011.

No more 186 games and a reduction in last quarter beltings would be good.

A 9th or 10th finish is what i am expecting.

I hate it when you get to the latter half of a pringles tin, and you have to basically turn it upside-down to get the next one out.......problem is.....all the crumbs then come with it!

My remote control helicopter doesn't turn left .

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
