  • 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.

And Rodan. That goal was absolutely bloody fantastic. He was an electric eel last night. The commentators were referring to him as Crazy Horse - in a good way. I really like the bloke.

And Howe. For being Howe.

Don't wish your life away mate it goes fast enough.

Enjoy this week and the prospect of a couple of more wins and worry about 2014 when it arrives.

When I saw the heading of the thread there were a couple of reasons I came up with why "someone would have a smile on their face" this morning!!

Must admit the footy was my SECOND thought!

I also went to bed happy ( not sulky) and slept like a baby. Double cause for celebration for me was that the Pies lost. Read the papers with a big grin this morning and have a spring in my step. My friend in Italy even sent me a congratulation text last night.

Well done guys.

Ron I agree and I apologise for leaving Rodan out of last nights special thanks it was definitely one of the better games he has played since being at Melbourne but I didn't think he had as big a impact as those mentioned above

As for Howe.... as you say Howe is Howe and to be honest I didn't expect any less from him then what he gave last night which is everything I expect from a top player ;)

All the players deserve a big thanks because at some time throughout the game they all did their bit .

But to name them all and what they did ie: Blease for instance. I could begin to write a couple of pages, the whole point though was not to say that other players weren't worthy of acknowledgement just that I thought those above deserved a special thanks :cool:

What well they all do when the MFC makes the finals in 2018?

It may be worth teaching them how to sing the MFC song. As they need to know the words when we win the 13th Flag.

I hope all of you in DL have a great day!

Beats talking about draft picks, thats why we watch sport, and to finally topple a victorian side makes it even sweeter, hoping for another 3 wins this season.

Watched the song a few times now. Watts and Chippa arm in arm, belting it out with gusto. Sylvia just to their left, doing the same.

I think we're gonna be alright.

Did you see Garland? Absolutely screaming it out. And Jonesy - I always think of Jonesy when these wins happen.

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

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.

    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
