  • 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.

The Demonshop - needs more stock

I went and picked up my a large training singlet no problem. On the rack the had run out of size 8 kids jumpers so I asked Tom at the desk and he went out the back and had mountains of size 8 jumpers. If they don't have the stock on the rack doesn't mean they don't have it, just ask.

Just a little polish for Tom at the desk too. He so helpful, He offered to put a number on the back, he showed me the new white training jumper (not for sale) & was telling me that they have sold so many jumpers that they have ran out numerous times of all sizes. He said the baby jumpers will be available early New Year.

I can't see the demon shop location being a priority considering our recent on and off field performances. Not an ideal spot but I imagine most people order online and can't really complain with rent free...

On a positive note I went in this morning and they seemed to have all sizes of guernsey's. The bloke at the desk was a champ and very helpful - had a great experience! Just out of interest, he was saying hat "1" has been the most popular number recently to go on the back guernsey's. Followed closely by "38" and the kids want "4".

Can i make 1 suggestion to the Demon Shop....

Any game we the MFC play at the 'G put a stall and maybe a couple of laptops available right at The MCC Members Reserve at Gate 2.

People will buy merchandise or order it if it is at the gate....Open again at half time....

Not everyone walks -past the current Demon Shop when parking is at the other side of the ground..

We are aligned to the MCC and i have always been amazed that MFC merchandise is not sold at the Members entrance.....

As part of the membership, why can't interstate members be given a code to use in an online purchase instead of a bloody paper voucher that you need to present at the actual shop FCS.?

The airport and souvenir shop ideas are great. The fact that such an idea was brushed over is just another example of how out of touch the previous admin(s) have been.

I know in my travels around the world I've bought plenty of soccer, basketball tops etc of cities I've been in as a memento, regardless of whether i support them or not. These are additional sales, and more money is good money.

If we want become the biggest club, we have to act like the biggest club. Promoting ourselves as the flagship of our game at airports can only bring good things.

I agree with all the feedback about the DemonShop but personally I don't have a massive problem with it. I think the location definitely costs the club sales but weighed against the cost of moving I don't think it's feasible to open a new store elsewhere. I've never had a problem with it (I usually go on match day anyway) and when I have been on a weekday I just park on Jolimont Tce and go for a short walk. The ideas about a "tourism" type stall at Fed Square or Tulla are great ideas but again unsure how feasible they might be?

One issue I do have is to do with the stock. I don't get why they don't stock things like DVDs of past games especially finals and big games etc. I realise these are done via Name A Game but surely the Demon Shop could stock some as well.

I'm 34 and i have a number 4 on the back...does that classify me as a big kid?

Haha I suppose so.. which isn't a bad thing!

The shop attendant said it's because Watts is really good with kids and goes to a fair amount of junior events.

You obviously haven't considered that souvenir shops sell what they want to, and what they think will sell.

Unless MFC runs the shop themselves.

Which is the same argument as moving the MFC shop out of the MCG.

    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

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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
