  • 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.

What do we do with our supercoach team if in 4 rounds half our team get banned for 2 years?

Do what I did (and this was before the whole thing blew up)... don't pick any Essendon players.

Rumour has it that D fletcher has been attending the fountain of youth @ a nearby Anti-Aging house???

he could be still going 'round in 2525. :)

Well sure as hell he was given the placebo: the same as Cale tried.

AFL supremo Gillon McLachlan also said "Further, the AFL is not aware of any instance of suspected match fixing in the AFL competition". Isn't tanking, deliberately losing or throwing games a form of 'match fixing'? Just thinking bout MFC with the tanking claims.

AFL supremo McLachlan may well say that, but Caro says otherwise.. Who do you believe?? AFL supremo or an angry bitter woman with a personal grudge??

If the AFL we're serious years ago it would have looked at the West Coast Roidsters. You would have been living in a bat cave not to know what they were up to. Cousins links to organised crime as well as others. the AFL just washed its hands of all that stuff.

Now the Roidsters, West Coast Coke have the nerve to say their model should be used by other clubs.

Bloody hilarious mob.......West Coast cheated their way to at least 2 flags. Disgraceful

Remember when Buddy was supposedly injured last year for 6 weeks.

The rumour was he was on 3 strikes but they didnt want to make it public.

A couple of weeks ago I was at a function where an official from another Club was also attending. During the evening the wife of the official dropped a clanger along the same lines. The official wasn't happy. Obviously just hearsay though!

It only took a few players to be paid over the salary cap at the Storm to lose their premierships I guess.

It's a tough call. I suppose we will find out soon

"After all that [censored] hoohaar on Thursday, what we have is one individual, and a club that has been potentially duped. And surprise surprise some no neck thugby players doin roids. No match fixing in the AFL. So assuming we get off, the AFL actually only has one person of interest. Is this a sick Joke?

We have copped so much enormous and unnecessary additional heat an innuendo over this c*** of a government's political grandstanding."

Just took the above of B'Blitz. This halfwit is blaming the government! The are some real rocket scientists on Blitz. Great reading.

yes bbo, you won't find many alpaca farmers amongst that lot

Still cannot believe that Meth Coke got away with all that pretty much unscathed (apologies to the late Chris Mainwarring) was it just because they are in Perth??

If it was a Melbourne Club they would have been exposed for sure.

Disgrace AFL. I mean Benny even made a doco about it!!

I think they only touched the bottom of the well once?

But they hovered around it for some years, with Premiership quality already on their list.. injured & tired I presume.

i am talking about the AFL. They didn't touch them apart from Cousins, Benny did that himself. Ju$$ left off his own back, yes he was given the yellow brick road to lygon st but WC were left alone as a club.

Stinks. Always will.

Yeah, IMO the AFL slapped WC for the disrepute thing, & then try to help them back up.

WC lost Judd in a mercenary way to the Visy park greenery.

& Benny via the AFL.

I think WC were given plenty of latitude to regrow their list.

But this sort of covering up is where its all wrong,

The public should here all the sorded details, & its the public thinking that'll clean the mess, & bad eggs out.

Now the AFL has lost control of its game because of its own secrecy.

In a way, the AFL have become the victims of their own fear & control.

Just like the ACC are concerned about drugs, leading to organised crime having a hold over players.

Let the honesty begin.

Joe Daniher anywhere he likes

He may not have been on the list, but he has been training at the club for years now...

    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

    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

    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,
