  • 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.

Is that why I didn't have any problems with the changes. I use CC cleaner. clean the crap.

I then have to re log in.

so thats what kept my pc up to date.

Most likely. According to the Message Board Software tech support the issue only would affect some people. For instance it effected my home computers but not my work.

Very nice work on the banner - I reckon David Neitz should be in there - record games, record goals, record games as captain - under-rated.

Ben Hur says no so we are not allowed.

It's not final but I thought I would get something up to compliment the other changes.

Golly gosh I do believe the curse is lifted !! ^_^

Now if the bloke 3rd from the right can only get commitment and ability onto the field that #'s 2,3 ,4 and 5 in that pic had , together with the belief and unrelenting tenacity to the job at hand that the bloke on the left had.. Then we'll be fine !! :)

Sorry to be a party pooper but I don't like it.

To me it is like the blazers they are a symbol of living in the past.

The MFC have constantly failed for 48 years.

I prefer to look to the future.

Prefer the old banner with mainly current players.

Just my opinion for what it is worth ( probably not much )

No offence or anything.... I love this site, however the new skin is slightly more flashy, thus making it harder to hide within the clutter of other programs at work.

You have raised my slacking stress levels significantly.

Sorry, Old Dee. Disagree with you this time.

Having a 'heritage banner' isn't a symbol of failure. And it makes the site Administrators' job easier because they don't have to keep changing it when a current player, for whatever reason, needs to be removed.

Another poster has suggested including David Neitz. I can't quite work out why I think this, but somehow I don't believe he deserves it. Am I being too harsh?

Just an opinion mate will not change my view of Demonland or make me post less etc.

Just prefer the other type.

Re Neitz You may be but whenever you have to make a decision like this there is always someone who is stiff to miss out.

I don't put Gary Lyon in the same group as the others but that is just my view other people obviously do.

You're just upset because Jamie Bennell didn't get put on the banner.

One thing we need to embrace old dee is our history, we are the only supporters in the world who can lay claim to being the oldest football club in the world.

We need to remember our heritage and look to the future we can do both.

Manchester United who I hate with a passion are currently in their most succesful period and have been since 1993, but those in Football who think of United think of the Busby Babes and the Munich Air Disaster, that is what they are most famous for.

I'm all for left side being the past and the right being the future, maybe as a transition we can have Todd Viney and Jack Viney meeting in the middle.

My complaint is we do too much of the former and not enough of the other PSD

No big deal but the MFC do irritate me with their obsession of a glory that finished half a century ago

I am impressed with the Demon greats forming guard-of-honour on the Demonland banner, but surely Checker -play like demons - Hughes should have got a guernsey as the man who originally revived our club in the 30's and who coached the club to the 39-41 triple premierships. He even filled in when Smith was briefly stood down in 1965. For that matter I would also chuck in I.W Smith. The width dimensions could be achieved by making gary a little less hairy and robbie a bit skinnier.

Easy bush demon take out G Lyon ( not in the same league as the others ) or M Neeld ( has not achieved anything yet )

Congratulations to Andy for the new Demonland banner. How he got match.com to put up pictures of all those women immediately under the parade of stars amazes me. What a triumph.

(If other posters have not been blessed with match.com's incessant banner advertising, the above won't make sense, but consider yourself lucky).

    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.

If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

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
