  • 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 Dermott Brereton the biggest flog on tv?

Im watching league teams on fox footy atm and this guys attitude and general persona is just ridiculous.

He is a smug [censored] who loves to also sink the boots into the dees, has picked us for the wooden spoon.

Pointless thread I know but does anyone agree or am I just taking his attitude the wrong way?

Now your talking. I'm devastated at Dwayne's low score in the other thread. He manages to combine relentlessly biased commentary with a complete lack of how he comes across.

Dermie's not the sharpest knive in the drawer but he does gain some credibility based on his record and experience. Now if you want to talk about a [censored] who is totally lacking any credibility at all put Mark Robinson at the top of your list. He is the flogger's [censored].

He's the kind of guy whose personality is so atrocious that you tend to automatically discount everything he says as being pretentious bullshite. While a lot of it is bullshite, some of what he says borders on insightful (which is a rare thing indeed these days).

I really think the 7 players scares them all, and when Parkin says that's their mindset when they we're picking teams when he coached, it does make you a little nervous.

Seven changes mid season may be an issue but ffs, It's round 1,

They over stated the 7 changes. The only player we've lost that we wanted is Rivers. Who would play instead of Viney, Toumpas, Jones and Byrnes? Cale Morton, Gysberts, Lazy Beamer and Ricky (can't get a game at Richmond) Pettard?

I'll take the future over a proven failed passed.

Roos actually spoilt the replay of the GF they did its the players, I loved the one from Geelong the year before, th Sydney one was ok, but Roos was constantly reminding you of his intimacy with the players who he coached and Long,or was under him etc etc

Just been ripped to shreds by these so called experts.

Has port really had that good of an offseason? Are we really that bad?

Seriously, what do you expect them to do? The Dees have no credibility coming out of last season, we are going in with 3 debutantes and 4 first gamers with Dees, and as much as it is not a great gauge, coming off a pretty ordinary preseason.

We have done nothing in the past three seasons to warrant their respect. Hopefully the team uses their comments as a spur to get them going.

Agree hardtack.....last year's players had all the incentive in the world to win their first game; they didn't deliver.

We must beat Port.

It was more of a commentary for people who werent watching the show.

Has port warranted their favorite tag for this weekend after their past 3 seasons?

    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,
