  • 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 would rather MC says to the club he needs the yr off to get things right rather than retire now go home to WA and freo pick him up next season for sfa. (And u know if that happens he will kill it on the field)

D day is either tue or wed as PR has stated.

Roosy said that he thinks there'll be a meeting later in the week.

One of the most clear pressers you'll ever see http://www.melbournefc.com.au/video/2014-04-07/roos-on-mitch-clark

Mitch is surely gone.

My take on Roos' body language is that he simply does not know what Clark's movements will be.

I think 95% of the posters here would appreciate it if the usual posters don't clog up yet another thread with dick measuring posts and cheap shots. Get over yourselves.

Hopefully Hutchy and Robbo are both on the money and that Clark is working towards playing for the club again and not the alternative. Some positive news is just what we need.

Works both ways, I hope you realise.

Not just you, but all the other predictors of impending doom.

Of course it works both ways. What doom do I predict in the case of Mitch Clark...someone who's had far more influence off field than on, because he can't get on.

Seems to be a point many are prepared to gloss over. This is after all a football club, whereby the primary objective of any player is to play. That is after all what they are paid to do.

15 games in how long ? Marvelous.

My most fervent hope would be for a full and complete recovery so he can go out and repay the faith and belief of not only the club but its followers.

I get no joy nor satisfaction with him being sidelined. He was a rare breath of fresh air and ability amongst this sorry band of ne're-do-wells.

Do I expect this ? No

would I be wrong.... happily so

Dude, he's on the long term injury list.

Clearly a joke!

Probably is, but not a funny one.

And what's to say Clark can't be brought off the LTI list?

Has to happen at some stage, if he recovers - why can't it be this week?

He has to miss eight weeks from the moment he is placed on the LTI list. Even if he is ready early.

Its ok...many a folk like to overlook minor detail.

My understanding is 8 rounds, but he was put on the LTI prior to our season commencing, so I'm not sure he'd need to stay out the entire 8 weeks.

Just stop.

You complain about there being no information and then put up post after post with no information.

Give it a rest.

Difference is our membership funds are not paying him to give us information.

Has to be 8 weeks. Minimum.

Don't know that it's going to be factored in here at all though.

Keep in mind.. Robbo thinks Essendon is hard done by

not a person whos judgement for mine is worthy.

This has zero to do with judgement, though. This is him reporting on what he has supposedly heard from an inside source.

And no-one is "hanging their hat" on it either. God forbid a report he is staying is a cause for some hope.

You're a very desperate poster Stuie.

Hint, go look up words like "context' , 'clarity' , 'relevance' etc

Also go look up Stawman ...

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

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.

    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
