  • 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.

Nearing the time in which my Competitive Pecentage Indicator kicks in...

When a team is mathematically out of finals contention I am going to grab the percentage and the W/L/D tally and measure who increases theirs the most relative to their original percentage.

It will reward the team that does the best after they learn they cannot make the finals. And it is relative to how they went while they were still in contention.

I think I am more excited about this than the actual games.

Which is pathetic...

You've definitely added a new dimension to fantasy footy rpfc, it's going to be very interesting to see how it unfolds, especially if the person who finishes last ends up with the 8th pick

One extra rule - if you threaten to leave because of any issue you are having after the rules have been setup for ages - you are out of the league.

It should ensure no easy games and no-one giving up.

Can't make the finals? There is a No.1 pick on offer!

At first I was a bit iffy about it but the idea has really grown on me, especially after getting in and experiencing the differences that this type of fantasy footy offers up.

I could throw a spanner in by throwing as much percentage over the next fortnight as possible before selecting full sides again.

But I won't...!

It's the only way to tank in my system but you are still a chance 45 - still a chance!

Remember 1900 - the Dees won the flag after finishing last in the H&A season!

Not sure if sitting in the 8 with a %'age of 94 is good or bad for me here... I've limped over the line a fair few times for an unexpected win :)

Slightly related - and I'm sure it was discussed earlier, but are the keepers going to be the same next year as this year? As in 2 old + 2 new

As I understand - we will keep the '2 any age and 2 U/21' concept for our keepers.

Assistance Please-- MM made me a proposal whilst I am currently having cancer treatment.

I pushed the wrong button and accepted the trade whilst I thought I was making him another offer.

Please reject this as you will see this is a mistake...

MM - when this is rejected I will make you the offer you originally asked for

Thank you ALL

the trade was not meant to be accepted, and was rather a method of conversation with jcb about a possible trade that we could work out

Round 15 becoming a disaster for several of us...I am getting a belting from OMR...made a very bad coaching move by picking up Tarrant and not playing him...well, always next week, but will still fight on.Having two undisciplined players in SJ & Thomas ( both not playing does not help the cause...)

Having Wellingham & Clark joining me list will help a little, may trade out Clark this week for a defender...Any interest ?....

    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

    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,
