  • 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.

Just a few wishes for 2013 please Dees!!!

I'm optomistic about the year ahead finals would be an absolute dream but we aren't quiet ready yet so here are few of my wishes for 2013

1. Beat both Essendon and Richmond and finish higher than both! My misses is a Richmond nut and she gave me hell last year and that B@#ch Caro Wilson.

My Misses old Man Bombers nut gave me hell aswell and would love to see another year for the dons pulling hamstrings and promising much but bombing out!!

2. NO BELTINGS ABOVE 50 PINTS!!!

3 Jack Viney to tear it up in the midfield alongside Jimmy Toumpas hopefully in a ripper first season for them both!

4. Dawes and Clark starting to gel causing big problems for opposition backs!!!

1 - A win against the Roos and Blues.

2 - I'd really like to see Watts and Trenners take the next step.

3 - Dawes and Clarke to strike fear in opposition defenses.

Dom Barry to have a Lewis Jetta like impact.

What, kick a record number of consecutive points?

I want Viney and Tapscott to be suspended for Rough Conduct.

A full season from Big Mitch.

A win against a genuine contender (not the bombers, although I want us to win that one too).

To finish in the upper portion of the lower half.

To see Watts build on the patch of great form he had last year and show it for the whole season.

To see Fitzpatrick push for the third tall forward spot and sneak some games.

To see gametime from all of our first year players.

My wish list:

Sylvia to play to his potential every game.

Finish 8th(magically)-11th

At least 9 wins

Mitch Clarke 20 games, 60+ goals

Dawes played in position, 60+ goals

Jack Viney, nab rising star

No loss greater than 7 goals

Wouldn't Pedersen have dibs on 3rd tall? And I rate Cam as highly as Clark and Dawes, not as many games on the board (or media attention) but has proven himself in the ones he's played.

I agree with you in wanting to see Fitzpatrick get more opportunities, 3 goals from 3 games is a nice start.

The club to play the entire season in a way that earns the respect of all other teams in the competition, and which builds genuine momentum for a top 6 finish in 2014.

You had me until the last five words RB and then I knew you were dreaming like the rest of us mate.

Don't be sad we all suffer it to some extent.

I would be happy with a season like the Tiges in 2012. Some very goog wins with some very competative games against the top teams. I'd be happy to dominate large portions of games against the Hawks, Pies, Meth Coast, Cats etc etc. Honerable losses to the elite means we are exprience and confidence away from winning games against them in the VERY near future.

\We need to win 75% of games against last years bottom 6 team too

A win in Perth so I can finally go to work and feed it into these parochial, sand-groping desparado's.

Limited myself to only 2 wishes - not too much to ask, surely.

Number two is a small number but one of them is an extremely large ask.

Someone famous once said if you take away my dreams I have nothing left!

So on that basis sixth spot is a possibility.

8 to 12 wins and i will be happy.

Clark to be ok and continue his great form of last year.

One of the new kids to star...Viney, Toumpas or Barry.

Agree,Cam Pederson is a good footballer.

He can play defensively or in the forward line.

I'm really happy the Demons went for him.Hopefully he becomes a regular.

And ever since 2000 I wanted David Rodan after watching his TAC cup form in the GF against Ess.He was a star then & is still a good footballer.

Its like the Demons have been reading my mind with recruits of late! I also really wanted Mitch Clark & whammo here he is!

I want the Demons to get on a roll from round 1 win about five on the trott and be competitive & if not beat good sides!

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
