    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.

His kids want to go to uni in Melbourne from all reports.

If this happens I'll have kittens!

We have contacts to get them into whatever they want...

Like DemonOx said - why bother with all the 50/50 talk if he isn't moving towards coaching again.

I am not convinced he is signed but I am convinced that PJ has been quiet because he has wanted to keep twisting Roos' arm.

Those celebrating are being a bit premature though...

Absolutely spot. The fact Mike Sheehan son tim tweeted as early as round 2 about us talking to Roos was also true. AFL phone Roos and put in a case for him to come back to coaching. Neeld was a dead m

To all on here, STOP HYPERVENTALATING! Roos made it very clear that he would not interrupt the celebrations of the 2013 season by formalising his appointment before the B&F. No doubt WC will put

He has announced it tonight on the eve of our last game-makes sense

Nathan Jones said last night the new coach will be announced in the next 2 weeks-makes sense

Leigh Tudor is moving back to Melbourne at the end of the year,he will be Roos' senior assistant-makes sense.

Rocket Eade re-signs with the Pies after most probably being told by PJ that he wasn't successful-makes sense.

This can't not happen with all of the above,the wait is over.

Geoff Walsh will be Footy Ops Manager.

Done Deal

PJ has just pulled off the almost impossible,WOOHOO!!!

This said knowing full well the gas will get turned to high .

Holy Shite-balls, have taken the mrs up up to the Sunshine Coast for our anniversary, saw Roos on the telly (on mute in the pub) said to her, that's the guy we offered 1.5million to coach us and he's not interested. Then I read this! Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy Rooooossssyyyyyy!

Did you indulge in sexual role playing afterwards.

Don't worry I'm not a pervert. I merely want to gauge your level of commitment.

Well actually some misguided souls on this site will say I am a pervert.

Do you think so Bing?

How could we announce anyone else now? If that happened it would always look like we were knocked back by Roos and had to settle for second best. And who else have we spoken with multiple times, as is the case with Roos? Not Craig, and not Williams if reports are correct.

Roos might as well have said "I'm going to do it" - except that he would lose leverage in ongoing negotiations if he did.

Too many things are falling into place for my thinking. It looks like Roos was signed a while ago. The "At the moment" comments from Roos to begin with but then things went quiet because of a club being drug cheats but then add no Brisbane, Eade staying at the pies and now Roos comments tonight it equals some happy days in my mind.

this explains us talking to assistants!

So u would think Roos has given a list of potential assistants he wants to the MFC bosses so they can get all our ducks line up.

Conveniently when he is signed then the next day or so they make the assistant announcements.

I like it, I like it a lot.

Tudor makes sense, he's been at the Swans for 2 years now, Roos would know him well.

Though he's also been linked to the Lions as Senior Coach.

Feel a bit for Neil Craig in this, could be a few announcements over the next week.

After Roos comments tonight it would be a MASSIVE let down if he is not the coach.

Surely he wouldn't have said what he did if he was still only thinking of doing it and knows he is going to do it.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.
