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.

You know dee-luded Most people who know me tell me I am positive person.

I understand why some people on Demonland think the reverse.

I believe I put the real situation case, as it happens the MFC has been a sorry mess both on and off the field for now the better part of a decade.

So putting that position naturally looks negative, I am not into gilding the lily.

I actually admire people like the Reverend who seem to be able to find some good amongst a hay stack of crap.

But if I live long enough I will be very positive when we are in the top four.

Go Dees

I desperately need a win on Saturday

HaHaHa, just taking the pissz OD...

but you do sound more enthused than past years.

I'm sure we're all pessimistic around footy season @ Melbourne, especially if you've barracked for them for over 50 Years.

Just to set you straight on Richo.....he actually tore his quad muscle completely doing squats. He has a very large scar across his buttock which he isn't happy with. It was never reported in the media & they went with the hamstring issue. Also I am sure Mitch & Richo have talked....but they are two different individuals & people cope with things differently .

Ban this imbecile once and for all.

Done.

Earlier this evening, a decision was made to ban this poster for a month.

On reviewing his posts and his record over time, I've overruled that decision.

The ban is now permanent.

Please let that be a warning to posters who believe they can constantly offend against our code of conduct and behave in an offensive manner to others on this site.

And finally, please show the appropriate respect to Mitch and to all players on the club's list.

Well said. I don't mind alternative opinions. I don't even mind what I consider backward and even plain stupid opinions. But you got to back them up with some logic and discussion otherwise you are plainly trolling. Add insult to other posters and it's a step too far. And plain insults with no respect to players and

It's a shame you have to spend precious time and energy dealing with this crap and you have no place here.

I really hope we can get a handful of wins or more this season. This place needs it nearly as much as the club.

Found it interesting that just last night H.MacIntosh played just his 7th game in over two seasons after battling constant injury, including no games in 2013.

Hopefully there's something in that for those trying to end Mitch's playing career due to his injury concerns.

What sort of insurance is this? Is it the use of insurance to pay out injured players? If so, I've never heard of this before. Can someone confirm whether such a thing exists? (Note: I'm asking a generic question about the use of insurance - not specific to Mitch Clark and whether he will continue to play or not).

Yes it does - every club has some form of insurance and all pay a healthy premium.

The analogy sounds heartless, but it's similar to horse owners taking out insurance on their gee gees.

I hope that whatever unfolds is done with respectful relationships, tact and empathy (assuming Mitch makes the dreaded call)

For mine,it's both brave and admirable that Mitch has clearly indicated that, for whatever reason, he is not travelling well. I would think that this would be daunting within an environment with such expectation.

I agree, it's great that he's spoken up.

It started in 2012' continued in 2013 and firmly into 2014.

Three is beginning to look a real possibility.

Are you looking for him to set a record?

not in favour of censorship, we will end up with a collective of monotonous conversations, mjt attacks mitch and gets attacked himself to the point of extinction by some moral high grounders who think only they have the mental fortitude and reason to decide what is right or wrong, some of you act like mitch is your only son ffs, it will be a very dull and self serving forum is this continues, he is a demon supporter and deserves a place on here

There are ways to have a stance on the topic without going overboard. Demonland done the right thing, mjt went a bit overboard in the end.

    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
