  • 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.

They've had 153 uncontested marks.

That's unfathomably bad.

I thought I heard that Freo racked up the most uncontested possessions of any side for the entire season thus far.

This could be 186 Part 2. I've already broken the remote - again, and the dog won't come anywhere near me. I think I'm done. I'll be back when Jesse plays his first game.

I'm now militantly anti Neeld. This has to stop and stop soon. For the bloke himself even. This can't be good for anyone's health.

I couldn't give a toss about Neeld. He's cut peoples careers short over the past year. Time someone cut his. It must be about caring for the players at the MFC. The work rate isn't there, but every loss is a further hammering to their confidence and future psyche.

Neeld and Craig need to go this week .

The game day coaching is pathetic .

Jetta Subbed?

Jamar rucking all day like a slow horse?

Byrnes doing nothing for the first half?

Nicholson not skilled enough.

B-grade coaches just ruin your football club .You don't save a cent.

Balmey was better than this.

Some of the players are good enough to win games of football.

This guy cant pick the right ones and inspire them to give it everything .

I feel sorry for our players now .

It really isn't their fault that the coach has no vision or creativity .

he is a slave to AFL trends and not an innovator.

We will always be behind with this bunch of coaches .

One thing that irritates me immensely is that WE DIDN'T HEADHUNT Ross Lyon, after watching the Coll v StK Grand Final, seeing Ross talking with the STK players on the ground after the game, I really felt at the time that he was done with the Saints and even allowing for his seemingly negative game plan, I was comfortable that his professionalism outweighed the negatives and we really we're in a position to land him. Totally peed off with our lack of SMARTS.

I have had enough now...Hawthorn & Collingwood in the next 2 weeks....Who the hell is going to pay money to watch those Deaths, and that is what they are.

We'll be lucky if we get 50K to Queens Bday this year and the AFL will then strongly consider whether we should get it next year - quite rightly too. One of the marquee days of the year with one match and for the fifth time in six years it will be an absolute fizzer with the game over by half time.

There will be more than 50k there but they will all be collingwood supporters looking to see their club beat the living suitcases out of us and kick their percentage up.

    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

    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
