  • 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.

WTF, why is Aaron apologising to MIFSUD if he hasn't done anything wrong, if this is just AFL spin on this all to be a misunderstanding and/or incorrect interpretations fook that. If Aaron has made no such comment don't apologise and if you didn't do not allow the AFL to report it as such. Lines in the sand

Aaron isn't apologising.

I have read through all of this and I cannot believe what I am reading, quite frankly. Some people here should be dead set ashamed of themselves. There is no more evidence of Aaron Davey being invol

I, like everyone else on this site, don't know the truth. Many were quick to defend Neeld against the allegations, not condemn him until proven guilty, and accept his denial (as am I). Why is it that

This was never about who said what to who, it was only ever about Misfud breaking a players confidence. The AFL have just tried to muddy the waters by bringing the other crap into it.

We'll get a plum draw in 2013 I'll bet as a result. Home games against the likes of Carlton and Essendon.

Striker IMO we have a fairly good draw this year.

The draw is not the problem It is the MFC playing poorly that is the problem

Just to clarify,"it was only ever about Mifsud breaking a player's confidence and misinterpreting what he had been told. How he misinterpreted it and what exactly he misintepreted we'll never know, and quite frankly, I don't want to know. Let's just get on with playing footy.

The interesting part about today is that the latest piece is from the AFL Media Department.

Now call me a cynic but would they put out anything that did not paint the AFL in the best light.

there was an interesting segment on Media Watch last on just this issue

If any posters are interested in where the AFL is heading with Sports journalism they should logon to the abc and watch last nights media watch

it is quite illuminating

One question remains in my mind. is Grant Thomas an accredited AFL media person? If so, I would have thought his accreditation should be revoked immediately in light of his unprofessional publishing of that article. Garry Lyon should also have held him more to account as a co-panel member of Footy Classified.

I don't mind Thomo and I think his views are often refreshing and interesting, but if it were any other journo who did what he did, they'd be out of a job quicker than you can imagine...

Only a small point fitness

But please do not call him a Journalist.

At best he is a commentator, there is a significant difference

I've got to disagree od, he IS what passes as a journalist these days, just not always very professional

We should not have any inflated ideas of journalists either. One needs only to read what masquerades as newspapers these days

Cheers

    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,
