  • 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.

Someone please just smash Robinson, proper smash, none of these free kick type smashes, if Beamer isn't going to get his game going he should do us a favour and iron the guy out.

It is a testimony to how poor we really are, that this average player can look like a star whenever we take the field.

Brent Moloney / Lynden Dunn, please give me something to remember you by so that in 10 years time, when your name comes up in a cryptic quiz on SEN (if even it ever does) I remember who you are.

Ahhh Mitch,we just need to get the ball into his hands,he does the rest.

Loving Sammy's run & carry.

Jones has 8 disposals to half time and Moloney,Magner,Jordie & Howe have 7 each-these 5 need huge 2nd halves.

Losing CP 76-72 and Tackles 39-32.

I'm starting to get a bad feeling about Jack Trengove as a player. He is just so damned slow.

2 possessions in a half of footy WTF??

Not worried. He's a little off, but there's a heap of almost in his game. Slightly better touch and we'll see the almosts become posessions, then he'll show what he can really do.

Need more or something out of Trengove and Moloney

I think a part of the problem could be that ALL the mids are just trying to win the ball because we struggle so badly to get possession, so unlike good teams, there's no one blocking etc to free up our "main" mids, and Trenners and Moloney are not the quality of someone like a Judd or Ablett who can break a tag.

Agree with Blease. If we have another injection of pace, he will thrive more I feel.

Clearances ?

This is really your turn to give us some run .

Beamer-prove us all wrong and turn the game.

We can win this if a few people extract some fingers .

Anyone see that goal from K. Harper on the tv coverage? Very impressive.

Love to get him at the Dees....three mates could reunite in a magnificent midfield in 2 years' time.

Blease, Harper and Gys.

Trengove was running with Simpson in the 2nd quarter and kept him to 4 disposals.

Great, another high draft pick who's going to be either a loose man in defence or a tagger...

Every time I see him he's chasing tail and not very quickly at that.

I hope you're right.

We chose this lad over Dustin Martin. It's high time he showed us why.

Martin had 33 touches and 2 goals in another game breaking performance yesterday. Why do we never seem to unearth talent like that?

I've been watching bits and pieces, this is what I gleamed.

Apart from the first half of the second quarter we've been fighting for every ball, in Greens case this has sent him to hospital. Blease has been excellent with his dash. Watts is looking very prominent in the back line and has done very good hard things.

A few soft goals and opportunities gone begging, but plenty to like atm, can we sustain it?

    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,
