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.


The dogs of war

What an absolute joke. The dogs of war came out and howled for blood. They crowded around, waiting for any morsel. And they were proven to be complete fools.

The sports media in this country are appalling. If there is no story, they create it. They build up innuendo and here say to a level of frenzy. That simply make stuff up.

Shame, all of you, shame.

I'm glad you were left today with egg on your face (or is it Caros nuts on your chin?). Who are you going to turn on next?

Hint for next time: you report the stories, you don't make them up, and you are not the story. See you Next Tuesday, all of you.

I wouldn't say 7 loses by more than 10 goals from 10 outings is really making much up.

There's a reason we are in the spotlight and as much as I wish if weren't true it's not a personal vendetta from journos.

It's just a reflection on where we are and what the football world thinks is tolerable.

The thing is in weeks time if Neeld gets the arse they will be all gloating and saying "I called his weeks ago!"

Actually, I called this at round 5, 2012.

It's bloody obvious he can't coach.

By all accounts Young Lib Damien Barrett got it wrong completely. Don't worry, he'll have an alternate script ready to go.

What the hell has him being a young Lib got to do with anything you hipster dweeb?

All true. Reports of dozens camped outside Aami stadium since early this morning, bored senseless all day, making complete fools of themselves, crossing back to wherever they came, to report...nothing!

Remember a couple of weeks ago, back page story Cotchin says he will give it up if and when they win a premiership, media talked nonstop about the implications of said statement, and then days later discussed the media's treatment of the treatment of said story. Insane! They are a joke, but I guess so are we all, because we are the ones that consume it. I'm embarrassed, but can't help myself...

Best part of today was the image in my brain of the media just waiting and waiting and waiting for something to happen, and in the end their scoop was that PJ has joined full time till 2014. I reckon a few of them would've gone up a couple of levels in Angry Birds while they were passing the time.

Ha Ha.

Funny thing about young Libs-they never really have a childhood.

They know they want to be serious young insects from birth.

He fits the bill perfectly.

Knew he was riddled with issues the moment he emerged from the media scrum.

the best thing is that the media got to AAMI at 8 30 am and waited all day for nothing lol

Eat [censored] scum

Good to see you are still with us HH. I was worried that you may have considered self-harm when Neeld wasn't sacked yesterdya. I guess the saving grace for you was that we made the media look like bigger fwits than what we thought possible.

The media think they run football.

Yep nothing grind my gears more than seeing 'Damo' or 'Steveo' have their 5 minutes on footy shows. Who the F**k are they, and why should we care about what they say?

They have a entire pannel of footy people on these shows yet these dweebs somehow become the reputable people for rehashing AFL.com/Herald sun's website?

Yeah, just like "Bomber" Thompson couldn't coach.

More "journo's" (if that's what they can be called) cover AFL than federal politics. Unbelievable, seriously how our country is run and what becomes of it is less important to the media than covering the footy. Seriously WTF!! there are only so many things that can occur at footy clubs and at head office, yet there are many pages of shite that must be written and time that needs covering between ad breaks. So if there ain't a head line and a grab for each of the footy journo's they have no choice but to make stuff up, go completely over the top and hype things out of all proportion - otherwise they wouldn't have a job to do.... How oh how would they then pay for their inner city apartment, mercedes coupe, beachside retreat and yearly 3 month overseas holiday?? Sick to [censored] death of "football media coverage". Just cover the footy and let us when something happens not your sources have led us to believe that this is going to happen tomorrow FMD. Sick of it

Sorry end rant

Good comment by the Aussie Soccer coach today answering the same question in Japan.

"Everything you read in the papers is true.

You know that don't you"

I am backing Peter Jackson all the way, if that means keeping Neeld ttil season end and seeing what he can do with proper structures around him then bring it on.

    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
