  • 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.

6-Clark - by a street, marked, crumbed, chased and worked his arse off

5- Jones not as good as last week but worked hard and kicked a couple

4- Howe presented well unfortunatley needs to finish off his good work. Has been a good positive this year

3 - Morton backed up from last week looks to be gaining some confidence

2- Frawley defended well as usual but his disposal let him down otherwise could have taken 5 votes

1- Can't split Barty or Mcdoanld solid efforts

Because Garland is solely responsible for all the supply Johnson got. I really thought Garland's attacking game was fairly good.

No Garland was not solely responsible. But giving him votes for doing a fairly good job on Steve Johnson is not correct.

You guys are surely taking the Pi55 !

Mitch CLARK wasn't born with an "e" on the end. So show some respect.

ox_5 ? C'mon. That's not like you.

Otherwise spot on with the votes...

Note: It seems to me when Jamar is being rested we are really struggling. I have no problem with Sellar's effort, but he's just not up to it. How many times did we see Jamar on the ground after the tap getting the ball out? and how many for Sellar?

I apologise HT! I have no idea what happened, and I have edited my post to correct it.

It pi55es me off more than most, and I made the fatal error. No excuses, but I am going to blame doing it on my iPhone and not actually thinking.

I didn't see the game - but i am pleased to see that Tom McD is again seen by many as doing well.

QUESTION: Does anyone feel that he is ready to be moved forward yet, or should he probably play even most of this season at CHB??

He seems to me to have the physique and the aggression to fill our long under performed CHF role.

I'd keep him at CHB. We have an undersized backline in that we don't have anyone else above about 193cm. Sellar may have been recruited to play on the monster forwards but has been playing relief ruck and forward. I doubt he (Sellar) will succeed in any position (although I admire his effort). With Clark and eventually Watts forward, I don't think we need him (McDonald) there.

Also, the forward line isn't really a problem at the moment. It does quite well when the ball actually gets down there.

Reason for edit: clarifying who the pronoun's are for

    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,
