  • 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.

True Faulty I'm sure that some have come on here hoping to bury their past.

I'm sure that Ology will continue it's a good site and has some very good posters, Chook being one of them. I must say I have a look over there to see your bro take up the good fight on the general board and have a laugh as he tears the othere a new one.

I see I still rate a few mentions over there from time to time, such is life.

Hey Robbie. I think Ash used to quietly drop in from time to time to read the latest disagreement between myself and HE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED.

I tried my hardest to ignore most of it, but sometimes........................................

Anyhoo, i dont think its such a bad thing if 'Ology cant be resucitated. Moderation was abandoned long ago, and the personal abuse was totally out of hand from that one poster in particular.

As for your dislike of IRW.... i actually enjoy reading most of his stuff now. I think i just try to look at what he says from a different (not too serious) angle.

P.S. Faultydet..... Hope you catch many incurable diseases in the Philippines.

At least he used irw, and not something else.

Maybe 'Land is like alcos anonymous, and will provide a fresh outlook on things? :)

After a couple of years trying to work out wtf he was saying I think I've done my time, I'm just not interested any more.

He needs his own forum so he can post respond, post respond, ........

There's also a ban button if there are too many problems. Just saying... ;-)

Aw ... C'mon now sheriff.

Should be entertaining watching every-one work out where they sit on the foodchain.

Watching out for your power trippin' deputy will be the trick.

Flame 'em then suspend 'em is his modus operandi.

How's it going Ding? Yeah it was a bit of a free for all and rather pointless; everyone knew everyone else's position but kept fighting about it anyway, no one was going to change. Bit different here, no real aggro except for a few who have a dislike for each other and the occasional

spat over something much, easier to read about the Dees. I've managed to keep out of most fights, not all, but most.

Regarding the other bloke, I reckon he would last about one post here, perhaps 2 if he used the first to introduce himself; no make that one either way.

Biif, it's fair to say that our sense of humour will never be on the same plane.

Or even landing at the same airport Ben .

Sheepishly puts his hand in the air. I was permanently banned. One day I could no longer access the site. I couldn't really tell you why as I had zero communication, or explanation. I'm not complaining, as that's their business, and I suspect I know why. C'est la vie. If I'm subsequently banished never to be seen again you know'll why, or maybe not - although they've known since day one who B-H really is, so if I'm a good boy ...

I joined 'land in Nov, 2002 and 'ology in Oct, 2004. From around the time I joined 'Ology I would have posted there far more often for 2/3 years. When life was boring over summer it was Rono that kept me entertained. He's a left field thinker and to be honest I don't share many of his views on footy, but his unique style of posting is very talented. I actually like Ron, but I think he'd be too proud to join here again. I hope I'm wrong.

But without wishing to sound condescending I grew out of that site. Clearly some people still love it, but to me it's now irrelevant. I see no need for it, but obviously others disagree.

Well Well Well, ole Sparkles himself.

Clayton Collard says Hi.

Look forward to reading your contributions.

Big H has had his misses. Clayton Collard is a minnow though. His frustration when we took Frawley over Sellar still lives in my memory. But he's not the only one to "miss" and thankfully his misses have cost us nothing unlike the pro's who would seem to have cost us a lot!!

Everyones had their misses Sleeve, my best couple were thinking that Ryan Ayres would be a ripper and Jared Rivers would never make it.

Having said that TGR's Wallace campaign will be hard for anyone to emulate!!

All good fun.

Back on topic.

One of the reasons that Tim appointed mods was that swearing became too big an issue for him to handle and given his state of health at that time he appointed some moderators.

He also mentioned that if he didn't he would shut the site down.

Tim wanted a family orientated site.

After I resigned as a moderator ( yes one of the heavy handed ones); swearing and poster abuse became rife and I feel that because of that Tim will not re open the site nor let it be re opened by anyone else.

If any one swore or was guilty of poster abuse in their postings on Demonology and is now bemoaning the state of the forum then all I can say is........

..............It's your fault.

Your contributions are as rewarding as your memory. I wouldn't expect less from such a disingenuous poster.

I never "missed" on Collard because I never saw him play. He "sounded" the type of player we needed based on others opinions. But, of course, you know this because I've cleared it up before. I'm flattered by your continued interest though.

Btw, there's a function here where you can read every post a contributor has made. I only have 600 odd, so reacquaint yourself ...

It's probably best you leave private forums alone.

Are you still buying shares in Daniel Bell and other NQR's ?

Don't flatter yourself mate.

The forum changed little after you got run outta town.

Recently HHNF has gone senile and the swearing and abuse has escalated but thats due to 1 bloke losing the plot.

we have only been here a few days, and look what we are doing to the place already.

'Ology is like that incestuous mob of 'tards that just moved in next door against your wishes.

All day fighting, bickering, and hurling insults like 8 year olds with a crush, when after dark, all they want to do is root each other.

Apologies in advance if we bring our bullschit and baggage with us.

Faulty you'll find out they accept a lot less here than Ology did and there are certain terms, that if used, will see posts disappear, the term you used in your post is one. And I'm not referring to "bullschit".

Not sure if anyone is in contact with Tim, but if so please pass on my best wishes for his health. A truly lovely man I've had the pleasure of meeting.

yes I also ask the same ,Tim helped me many years ago and My offer is there to reciprocate this back anytime

On another note it's quite enjoyable being able to post and discuss without someone waiting to pounce, you'll find it less stressful.

If I feel like an argument I make the trip to bay 13 on BF, usually when I'm on holidays and can't be bothered reading a book.

Graeme Smith and GOTO are in touch with him and I think GOTO is trying to work out a resolution, not sure if it will succeed though.

    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,
