  • 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.

No need to be attacking Stuie. He is entitled to his point of view. I enjoy being able to debate all things Demon and so do all of you; that's why you're here. If we all agreed, this would be very bor

None of us know that. If that was the reason Neeld moved him on then I don't have a problem with it, as long as all avenues were exhausted. Still think the trade was a gamble, and would rather Neeld toughen up players than ship them out every time.

As you say none of know for sure why he was shipped out but from the outside it looks like Neeld is moving players out who do not fit his requirements. After last years performances he would not have the time or inclination to toughen players up if they didn't show they were 100% committed to the cause, why waste his and our time?

At the start of last season again looking from the outside in it appeared that both Gys and Sammy Blease were well behind the pack as far as their fitness and training was concerned. Blease worked his butt off and it's a credit to him, he has the goods to be a top class player and now he has the work ethic to go with it. I would say he is a win for Neeld and one that he did toughen up.

I reckon there is a good chance that Gys will be playing local footy in 2014 unless he gets the message.

You already are blocked, can still see how you are clogging the boards with a ridiculous amount of posts.

Why read them then if you've already blocked me? Geez and you question my IQ.... (hilarious btw, how do you come up with such gems?)

Just block me and be happy with 60% then RGRS, problem solved.

The problem is other people quote you a lot and if they have you on ignore they still have to read your predictable posts.

It's like having a table at a restaurant near the toilet; you try to ignore it, but every now and then a slight wiff of manure comes your way.

Stuie constantly comes into threads and directly engages in arguments with anyone who has an opposing view to him. Particularly when it comes to players past or present.

He is predictable to the point that I know roughly when he will come into a thread, and what he will post. The arguments always seem to degenerate into childish slanging matches and it is tiresome up to the point that is affecting my experience here.

He needs to grow up and stop with this constant badgering of other peoples opinions. Maybe offer up some original thoughts and ideas himself.

VFL player today. Enough said.

As was our captain...

Wow, You're saying that the circumstances for our captain, having played about half a VFL game after a 3 month injury layoff

last week playing in the VFL come Round 1, are the same as Gysberts who played every game in the

NAB Cup/Challenge but did so poorly in the preseason that he wasnt selected for senior consideration?

Very astute observation.

    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,
