  • 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.

What's wrong CFB, afraid optimism might be contagious, you don't have to read the posts or post yourself, it must be really satisfying in a strange sort of way to be so negative about everything.

Although I do admire your many references to pop culture, you obviously fill your waking hours expanding yourself

There's a difference between optimism and delusion and you my friend are all hepped up on the kool aid.

It's usually a battle of wits with unarmed men, but hey, I find it entertaining, got to try and keep the Demonland Orcs under control, thought you would have WYL chortling alongside you, hasn't got the bottle to take me on by himself

If you need a way to fill the hours getting a job would be more productive instead of just racking up thousands of posts on here every day trying to do your best impersonation of the Iraqi defence minister.

SCH, is 100% a troll. This one of the most if not the most visited non official AFL sites on the web and the club is a basketcase, perfect opportunity for a troll with little to do in his life to come and work people up who are already extremely worked up for obvious reasons. I hate to say it but this place is a haven for trolls they dream of forums like this.

I think someone has actually validated that, yes, he is a volunteer at the club. Any confirmations?

He's no troll. He’s a passionate dees man like the rest of us. Actually he could probably argue that he is more actively passionate than some of us as he attends trainings, B&F nights, he is best mates with every one of the players (just ask him.... actually dont ask him and he'll tell you anyway!)......

Problem is, he seems to have no capacity for forming his own opinions on the current plight of the club. Furthermore the extent of his analysis of the palyers in our squad is limited to platitudes regurgited from Matt Burgan’s weekly puff pieces.

Next time I make the trip over to Victoria to watch a game at the ‘G, i’ll be keeping an eye out for a special bloke wearing #39 on his gurnsey, cheering the Dees on like they’ve won the last 10 flags in a row.

He occasionally attends the Monday/Tuesday ring around team. Spends the rest of the time coattailing anyone in red and blue who may be hanging around the MCG, AAMI park or Gosch's paddock. Been known to attend the odd training session where he can hang on every word any member of the FD cares to throw at him. He knows it's all gospel.

He knows we've got the best coaches, the best board led by a great and charismatic president who's (pun intended) inclusivity and love of the club's supporters is legendary.

All in all - the club's in a great state - we are all deluded (or brainwashed by certain members of the media), And finals are just around the corner.

Satty (or whoey, or whatever name he chooses next) always knows more than the rest of us - and he's always right.

I think the next statue outside the 'G should be of him.

I attend BDSM nights. Does that make me a passionate supporter?

OK, I can accept DemonWA's explanation, but someone needs to counsel SAT about his comments, because they are not helpful to MFC's current predicament and they take away from Demonlanders' genuine concerns for the Club - I would like to think that we are all passionate supporters of MFC regardless of our differences of opinion at times.

Watching tonights game just makes me very angry with the last 6 years.

We were ALL Conned.

How were we able to get so bad? What the hell went on inside the place?

Is half our list ruined?

I agree mate, I see highly skilled, intelligent footballers that think their way through the passage of play and don't just throw it on the boot. Their mistakes don't turn into goals either! That's what hurts me the most!. I was talking to a mate from work today who is a die hard Blues fan, he reckons the Blues tanked at the right time (admits it) The Dee's have been punished by GCFC and GWS (the rant came from no where, my bad) Edited by BrisbaneDemon

Tanking was never right for the MFC. We had to learn the hard way.

But the powers that be thought differently, and all the money WE donated has been blown.

It's a shame we members didn't crack it hard after 186, but i was in shock so i suppose a lot of others were too.

Collingwood are playing like Melbourne, Sydney on the other hand sprint, and then they sprint some more and if in doubt they sprint. It's not complicated.

I know. That is why i am angry.

It shouldn't take 2 years + to teach this. Not when they train all week.

Friday night games frustrate me also. They continually serve to show how far away from being a decent team we are. It's like we are in Bizzaro world and the real teams are in an entirely different reality.

Yep i feel the same. We are disconnected from the League we started.

What the hell was CS doing!!

I spoke to him a few times. I really enjoyed those talks, but they were all garbage...His template has killed our list.

I agree with a lot of the comments re tonight's game and MFC's game, but two points for consideration:

1 tonight is ugly football lacking in skill, which a team like Geelong will rip apart in finals (ignore last week, these things happen)

2 why are the Pies allowed to get away with blocking the player on the mark (perhaps the 5 metre zone should apply here as well)

The Swans spread beautifully in the 2nd Quarter, they just sprayed shots.

The Filth are ordinary. I enjoy watching ugly footy if its tight. Its a tough game.

Watch the 90 Elimination. I would love to see the Demons play like that again.

Pre-season most teams train in a similar manner. We have Misson, Craig and Neeld all who have been at successful clubs and yet we play like we come from another planet.

I agree, this should not take 2 plus years to play watchable football, I just can't help think Neeld can't coach. Surely our players are not this dumb?

I agree with your comment on the Swans spread WYL, but the hand and foot skills of both teams are very average cf Geelong.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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
