  • 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.


Having fun, Tom?

Scully in sizzling form again today with 6 kicks and 10 handballs, the spud played on from a mark and managed to get a goal touched of his boot 2 metres from the goal line, which I enjoyed immensely. Can't you just feel those media maggots warming up their typing fingers to start getting stuck into this guy as everyone wonders why in the name of God he is getting 50 grand a game, which is over 10 grand a kick at the moment. Meanwhile his side is enjoying a fantastic debut year, with 14 losses to go alongside their win over the other hacks, culminating in an average losing margin of 80 points including losses of 162, 129, 119, 94 and 92. Today they played at home and the Crows piled on 18 goals after time. Hope Tommy is loving it.

The bulldogs got stiffed Ward is a gun, Scully legacy will forever be the highest paid biggest underachieving worst AFL player ever, the name T Scully will for ever be that of the player who took the money and run and this will last forever in Football circles, was it really worth it Tom?

Wow Scully collecting 39 possies against the bulldogs was lifetime ago.

Might have to hunt around and get a look at the footage of that. I could do with a good laugh.

It will take a few years to be sure about Tom, but as long as we don't absolutely stuff up these compo picks, this has been a big big win for us.

Really cant understand the hubris

We've amassed 2 wins this year hell of a lot to make scully jealous for sure.

It's not hubris. It's good old fashioned schadenfreude. It will be hubris if we clean up with the compo picks though.

I think the issue is we were lucky that GWS took this disaster off our hands; he is showing nothing and from what I've seen of him this year he's got nothing to offer. It's ok to be super fit and stand out among under 18's, but when you get to the big stage all the players are super fit and you lose the edge you may have had.

I personally love to see him fail each week just to stick it up that old fool Sheedy.

Hard to argue with that. Imagine if he had stayed and we were paying him $600k a year, we would have a mutiny on our hands. The 2 compo picks are starting to look really attractive now.

Surprised he isn't copping more scrutiny. Combine being a #1 draft pick with being the highest paid player in the league and then look at his performances. Amazed he isn't copping more heat.

Watts is miles ahead as a #1 pick, and as a person!! We don't have to pay him 50k a kick too (and unlike Scully, Jack's kicks actually go where he intends them to)

Well, to be honest, Little Tommy is traveling a lot better then Trengove, we are really

stuck with this guy, can not drop the captain, and he can not buy a kick.

A decision will be required shortly and there will

be a few red faces.

Have we done well out of the deal,? depends if we blow both picks on a Silvia and McLean.

Hows the "Culture" up in Outer Western Sydney Tom ?

Parasites like you belong in that test tube team .

So happy you found your place in life you little bogan.

I think of all the starving children in the world when I imagine the waste of money poured into this team for what will be an enormous fail.

Skills , ability or character-I'll take JT over TS anytime.

bluey, do you ever visit the MFC site? No, I suppose only MFC supporters go there. Anyway, if you had, you would note that Trengove is in the top three for disposals and second for tackles so far in 2012. You might like to check similar categories for TS over at the Giant's site (at which I am sure you would fit in more comfortably).

I think he will be ok but not the Judd or Ablett type they are paying him to be.

He really should be coping the treatment Watts has had over the last few years.

Happy to have the compo picks and Trengove who will be a player and is already a leader at our club.

Bluey's certainly not a giant; oh you mean giant supporter.

Bluey gets about 1 out of every 50 right and this isn't one of them.

I would not credit MFC stats, you probably are correct, but correct ball usage is paramount, to be third gatherer at our club, oh well.

Well one out of fifty would put your strike rate to shame, would Trenners walk for a million or even half that,?

We will never know, because nobody would make such a ridiculous offer,

look he may come good, but Neeld has made his bed,

placing the poor kid under this pressure, and I can tell you it is taking it's toll,

The MFC may benefit but history makes me feel nervous.

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
