  • 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.

Sensible move to me.

There are evil people out there that may try to convert her to Collingwood.

As a good Dad you need to get in first and protect her future.

You should also get a few spare membership application for the MFC for when she gets older and starts to bring boys home.

Haha, I'll kindly pass them the membership forms before I chase them out of the house with my shotgun ;)

I'm going to big note myself here. BUT I lay claim to having the youngest ever Demons member in our family. In the history of the club. The club kind of confirmed it too. For many years, I've been

My partner was a St Kilda supporter but I kept taking her to a mates to watch each game and she eventually just kept referring to our boys.

I then signed her up with no objection.

Both you and 'Canberra Demon' show how fabulously cunning and subtly persuasive men can be! Good work. Could also be that your partners have opted for the 'anything for a quiet life' option.

My husband is a Pies supporter but each year for Christmas I buy him a Melbourne membership. I tell him its the gift that keeps giving! My two dogs are members and I think I may sign my Mum up this year as well. She has always supported the Dees but never been a member and only attended her first footy game this year on Queens Birthday - its never to late to jump on board.

My recommendation is to replace the shotgun with a chainsaw as it has such a higher fear factor.

The boys will fear you for decades to come so sign then up for 10 year MFC memberships at a time.

That's correct - has been for more than ten years now. I always rearrange his wallet so his MFC membership card sits in the front and his Pies one gets lost in the back amongst the other rubbish!

I do wonder how many members have their membership 'paid' for by people such as us. I get four a year and my wife who is a recipient has been to two horrid games and just grumbles about the number of membership scarves we have flooding our little NY apartment. I wouldnt be surprised if the few members of Demonland made up 15% of the membership.

Clean you need more control over your husband as he has too much spending money if he can afford a Collingwood Membership as well.

You done a fantastic job so far but I would recommend setting seats in the middle of the MFC cheering Squad. Right next to the loudest and most colourful Supporter would be the ideal location. Throw out all his Collingwood Clothing and Dress him in MFC gear. Take lots of photos and send the pictures too all his mates and family.

If you truly love your husband you can't just stand around an let him support a team like Collingwood, its just not right.

IMO you should be voted Australian wife of the year, keep up the good work.

It's good to see 12,178 members signed up already for 2014. That means we need fewer than 28,000 to reach our long sought after 40,000 target. And we have 9 months to do it in.

Most of the membership will be MCC members like me who have added MFC membership to their packages. However, it's still a very good start. I seem to recall that we have achieved 17-18,000 members by December in previous years, so hopefully we are seeing the Roos factor at work. Anyone got any past membership stats for this early please?

Now, if only the MFC could learn to punctuate in their home page membership update.

Snap!

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
