  • 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.

Brilliant stuff webjet. Reflects very strongly on the company the fact that they have jumped on board and thrown their support behind us in a real time of need. Hopefully the deal works well for both parties! Let's get around them dee fans.

Finally some good news. As for their logo, big is not too big given our recent predicament. I hope it distracts the Richmond players.

I wish I could just casually bring up my plans for a $10 000 holiday . . .

$10,000 doesn't really get you very far. A ticket to Europe via Asia with a connecting flight into another European country will set you back $3000. More if you want special cripple seats. Can't believe how much they rip you off if you can't sit cramped up against some fat guy for 44 hours. Total discrimination against people with bad knees!

By the way, we just got a sponsor on an 8 day turnaround. Are people really complaining? Really?! Talk about first world problems!

Another Melbourne supporter (the advertising person who WebJet use) brings home the goods, well done WebJet.

Amazing what some supporters can do with a positive attitude - fantastic news. Wonder if he took the attitude all he has to do is buy a membership - obviously not.

Back of Jumper sponsor just needs to be sorted out now.

How about Go Switch - an EW competitor?

Would love to see that.

Flights into LA and out of New York, accom for 4 days in LA, Contiki New Years in New York and flights to get there, travel insurance and Disney World tickets for two people. Happy with my bang for my buck actually.

Wonder if Webjet would give me a discount for being a MFC member...

iSelect have stupid amounts of cash too.

I've been inside their offices, and they installed a slide for the staff to get from the 2nd floor down to ground.

They honestly seem to be looking for ideas to spend money on.

When quoting to them, you know to add on a healthy margin.

Get in there CS!

I spent two months in Europe on $6000, and that was when the dollar was crap over there. You just need to shop around a bit. Admittedly, a couple of the planes were a little cramped, but I got by.

As for the sponsor, I think this is a hell of an effort by the club. Do we have a figure yet for how much? I somehow doubt it's the 2mil we were supposed to get from EW. Still hope it's a nice chunky figure.

Surely they'd at least be willing to match the shade of red to our jumper. I know it's not the exact colour, but it's still red. Having said that, priority 1 is a back of jumper sponsor. Priority 2 is making sure the logos work well with our existing colour scheme.

You and I clearly do not have the same shopping habits.

Milan, Paris, Barcelona. I could spend $6000 a day if I had the money. Must stay well clear of all Prada related goods.

But yes, flights are definitely the biggest expense. Add a connection into the Middle East and watch the price climb. Damn hell holes!

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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,
