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.


Frawley and Sylvia in unconfirmed nightclub dust up

Stuie, we are struggling to win a quarter, let alone a game.

You'll excuse us if we aren't jumping for joy that a repeat offender, a perennial under performer, and an all round known idiot, has been seen [censored] out of his mind after a match*

Should we sack him? No.

Should we punish him? Yes.

Would our club be annoyed at this? Yes

Should you? Probably, but too busy searching for gifs online I suppose.

*still no confirmation, so lets hope it is not true or has been blown out of proportion on the internet

That's the part I'm talking about. Didn't anyone learn their lesson from the whole Boxing Day Test fiasco?!

Oh, and just for you...

I heard from a reliable source who was there and this is apparently how it went down guys....

Frawley was boasting big time that he had a beard and Col didn't ...this was in front of a few lasses they were chatting to at the time. Sylvia responded "you can keep your beard Chip.....nobody can match my smooth looks on the field or the dance floor mate!!". Chip then stated that he could take anyone on the dance floor anytime including Col "smooth as" Sylvia!! Some bloke called 'Rick' happened to be near them and overheard Chip boasting and challenged Chip to a dance off!

Chip foolishly accepted, Col tried to stop Chip from embarrassing himself and this is where a little push and shove occured between the two of them but nothing too serious.

This was caught by a patron on a smart phone and posted on you tube this morning! Check it out guys!!! ........

Grow up.

If the facts that are outlined are true then its Colin Sylvia who has to grow up. I don't mind a player having a few beers after a game but if you are drinking to the point where a team mate has to pull you up and tell you its time to go home and you are so schnickered you react physically then you've had way more than a few beers and you are kidding if you call yourself an elite athlete.

If facts are essentially as above then Colin Sylvia will presumably be playing for Casey for a few weeks. Sylvia is 27 years old and in his 10th AFL season. The words its later than he thinks come to mind.

You mean the RUMOUR from BigFooty.... Not much credibility there. Everyone needs to calm down a bit and remember the reactions around the Boxing Day debacle.

Calling for him to be delisted is completely dumb.

So two blokes out on the [censored] have a bit of a shove. Yeah, that would be the first time mates have ever done that before. Gosh, people, relax! Yes, we are playing crap football but, surprisingly, it's not because they are having a drink after the game.

Do you reckon the Swans players would drink during the season?

Do you know for a fact that this altercation even took place at all?

We wouldn't know if some swans players drink during the season because it is a non story. No one gives a sh!t. Who doesn't get into a push and shove with their mates after a few? For those who have their heads up their rectum it happens all the time and it is no drama.

You don't deserve that, it is none of your business. So what a player gets drunk, big deal as long as he meets all his rehab and training commitments today and this week no issue.

Lmao you don't get sh*tfaced as a professional AFL player. It sets you back in terms of recovery, overall fitness & mental application. These blokes should be watching everything they put into their bodies, barely have a drop of grog during the season & some of them are out getting pis*ed. Explains a fair bit about why we are so shite on field.

Sad really. Both are very talented footballers and should be on there prime.

Haha agreed - Good to see our senior players leading the way!!

In all seriousness this pretty much highlights 'Our' culture - turning up is good enough for some of these blokes.....

Good luck Neeldy - true professionals through and through

We have no culture - that is our big ongoing problem, and has been since mid 1965.

Just staggering that these blokes have no professional pride.I'd be embarrassed to be even out in public,.let alone drawing attention to yourself.What the hell is happening at the MFC.It seems the lunatics are still in charge of the asylum.

The MFC and its Players should be doing everything in there powers to improve this is why we r so far back from the rest. Not professinal.

I highly dought it but even if the Swsns players had the odd drink mid season id say they earnd it...we not even close

Whilst this is disappointing to hear, some of the reactions in this thread are almost comical.

This sort of thing would happen within every club, in a variety of settings inside and outside the club. With the pressure they must be feeling at the moment, it shouldn't come as any great surprise. Plus keep in mind, these guys aren't just people who play together, alot of them are mates. Mates tend to have this happen at least once or twice.

Seriously, we have far greater concerns at the moment than worrying about a supposed push and shove after a few drinks, the background to which we are speculating upon.

Both players should be dropped for at least the next match.

Based on what, a rumour on a couple of forums (which probably emanated from the same single source - some one has even extrapolated two reports to mean "multiple people reporting it")?

    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
