  • 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.

I'm really getting sick of this, the AFL clubs treating the VFL competition like swiss cheese. to do to it as they please. they're destroying the VFL's standing in the communities around the country.

its time the AFL clubs separated from the VFL & went back to playing either prior to AFL home Victorian matches, or play at the training venues against themselves.

leave the VFL to be the suburban & regional entertainment they were.

What standing. The VFA gave up it's own standing when it became the VFL and relied upon the AFL to help it survive as a professional league. Most of the clubs have now worked something out. Northern Bullants and Box Hill have folded into their AFL alignments, Port and Frankston stand alone, Willy will join them, North Ballarat and Werribee enjoy a split a alignment.

Casey and Melbourne remain together because the matter is both clubs can't live without each other. And yes we've treated them badly the previous 2 years but at the moment we (and they) have been hit with a bad dose of injury trouble at the wrong time of the season.

It seems Hogan got injured, Rodan got injured, Couch got injured, Strauss, Burns and Blease all did contact injuries. Strauss and Blease I believe needed their surgeries regardless. I don't think they could've been delayed and even if they were they were probably out 4 weeks recovering just to play 1 match maybe.

As I said feel bad for Casey. But this is the same club who hired Fev when we pleaded with them not to. If anything they still owe us one.

Stark 2-4 weeks Hogan 4 weeks ... please (put down season). MFC doesn't rate Casey anyway, why else would Toumpas, Bail & Rodan all fail to qualify for Casey. Toumpas and Rodan should have played agst Box Hill and ... Bail sitting on his backside in Adelaide was "STUPID" item number 22 for the year.

The extraordinary thing about our injured list is its capacity to expand during the week after the list has been announced. They are what's called around here "the mystery injuries of the week".

The following players not on the senior/rookie list are not playing this weekend:-

+ Rohan Bail (reason - probably emergency for tomorrow)

+ Mitch Clisby (reason - suspended)

+ Troy Davis (reason - believed to be a hamstring injury)

+ Joel Macdonald (reason - retired)

+ James Magner (reason - unknown)

+ James Sellar (reason - probably emergency for tomorrow)

It's tough on Casey to field a strong side of AFL listers when all of these things happen. Injuries can't be avoided but why did we need to hold back two players for tomorrow's game?

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
