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.

6. Dunn - Didn't lose a contest and was our best field kick all day.

5. Frawley - Smashed Petrie most of the day.

4. McDonald - Was playing most of the game loose in defence, but he did it well and provided a lot of rebound run. Also kicked surprisingly well.

3. Sylvia - Fought hard and gave us some good attack.

2. N. Jones - The usual.

1. Toumpas - Was elusive and creative. Also took a ripper of a mark.

Gawn may be hard done by, but he was smashed by Goldstein in every department. As good as he was, he was given a lesson by a very good ruck today.

6. Gawn (by a mile, only player who tried consistently and had a positive impact all game, had our most contested possessions too)

5. Frawley (did well on Petrie for 3 quarters)

4. N.Jones (Promising first half but still could've had a much better impact)

3. McDonald (A lot of the ball and surprisingly didn't cough it up as well as playing well on his man)

2. M.Jones (Tried)

1. Sylvia (Was pretty good at stoppages but looked defeated in the final term)

Dunn and Toumpas are not voteworthy. Screwed up our defence all day with their decision making and didn't learn from their mistakes

True, based on the hit outs and Goldstein's influence in the second half, you'd think so, but I thought Gawn showed heart all day, got into the right positions to win the ball and flew well at contests

I agree with all of that, hence the mention that he may be hard done by. I just think he was well and truly beaten by a better opponent today.

6.Dunn - can't believe on another thread people are calling for his head, beat Thomas hands down

5.Frawley- is almost back to AA form, we need to get things right in the FD as we can't afford to lose him

4.Sylvia - had a dip and our best mid for mine

3.M.Jones - had a crack and got his hands to it

2.TMac- got a lot of it as did most of our defenders and provided some rebound

1.Gawn - four quarter effort and despite being beaten by Goldstein, big Maxy is improving every week

With Colin Garland out injured, Nathan Jones is a virtual certainty to take out back to back Demonland Player of the Year awards (and virtually everything else going at the club in 2013).

    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
