Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

Have the nuts to say you are not in control of a very good coaching panel Mark Neeld.

Players should be ashamed of this situation. It starts at the coalface. Pathetic efforts from most players....not all, but definitely most..

No respect up or down the lines at this rabble of a club anymore. It is just a sad, sad club now.

Leaders, where are you? Who is gunna stand up now? I just give up. Lost interest after all those years.

Embarrassed. Rambling, not really thinking straight anymore. Actually quite upset with the state of the MFC.

I will always love them but no more heartache for me thanks. Off to local footy where it is all genuine and not just about more money!

We either overhaul the whole board, or just fold us up.

Because under this board and coach, we are going no where.

Some say it's the players, look it probably is, but they are better than the hiding they are copping.

We need to drastically change what we have in place, because we a joke, everyone's laughing at us and think we should fold and it's hard to disagree.

We need attack on the footy.

Our players are not this bad. Our list is not this bad.

There is being poor, unskilled, unfit and then there is not knowing what to do and not wanting to do it.

Something is very very wrong, with everyone, but the reality is we can't ditch the whole list but we can move on the coaching panel and hope it helps.

This club has been on a downward spiral ever since Bailey started cleaning out all the experienced players. Neeld has followed suit and done exactly the same thing plus adding aging hacks & rejects to replace Rivers, Moloney, Petterd & Martin. The recruiting is shizen. We are stuffed, period.

So we pretty much agree that Neeld is not up to it, but 4 fuks sake(the players) have some pride in your own performance and the jumper, I've played a lot of footy 270 odd games and still going and not brought into every coachs direction that I've played for but every time I walk onto that field I've done all I can for my teammates and the jumper, it's not fuckin rocket science something is seriously wrong at this footy club. It's got [censored] all to who we brought in and who we lost etc its bigger than that. Why is so and so who ever he is from essendon (there whole side) that much better than who we have!!! that's [censored] like I said there some serious issues at this footy club and I wish I new the answers maybe they should give me a call I could remind them how fuking lucky they are to play a game they love (or do they?) and get paid a [censored] load 4 it

Agreed - what are they playing for? They know they won't be making the Grand final this year, they know they won't make the 8. Whats the point in trying?

We just need to change our culture - string together a few wins and the team will look totally different (will never happen)

I will bet He isn't... We have a gutless Board and many OLD stick in the MUD members that STILL think we will survive with the current Hierarchy and pathetic situation,,, I will bet if things do not change before the end of this Season we will lose more than half of our Financial Members ,,,, The ones that REALLY count !!! Record this post and crucify me if I am wrong !!!

Many on here will know that I have been a staunch supporter of Neeld despite many of the losses. I now officially don't care.

I am over in New York at the moment, I was asleep to wake up in an hour and I get a message from my mum saying "be glad you're not here the score is diabolical." I could not have imagined that, if ever I thought club pride alone would surface to make a stand after last week, especially given our history with the bombers, this would've surely been it.

Instead we go further backwards, into Fitzroy territory. If the club wants to sack him I won't be [censored] off, I feel sick. Only Melbourne could make me feel this bad in New York.

We won't beat GWS in 2 weeks.

Then we'll be rid of him.

Do we HAVE to wait that long ?????

I am now hoping we join Fitzroy so I have an excuse to Support another Team... How sad it is that it has come to this >>> I loved the Melbourne Football Club , but my love has died... Sad day for me sincerely ,,, almost reduced to tears,,,,

Tick tock, tick tock. The clock has stopped.

I thought Neeld would get at least 10 games to prove he can coach.

Seems like he will only get 2.

Goodbye and good riddance

Btw there will now also be a total overhaul of the board and management

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
