    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 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.

Jack Grimes!!! How can u be so poor with decisions??? Its not even under pressure. He should not be captain.

Grimes, what an absolute liability. Right at the end there, I said tongue in cheek watch Grimes turn this into another Port goal... and he nearly bloody did!

Lucky we have Salem, Tyson and The Pedotrain playing like absolute legends.

The only way I could've been happier with that quarter was if a certain co-captain hadn't turned over a simple kick. I really would've liked us to press the momentum right at the end as well but I understand they wanted to preserve the score line. It really could've been all squared at half time though!

Massive man crush on Salem and Tyson!

Salem - class and coolness under pressure. THe ability to hit up that kick and keep his cool, we have something special here.

Can you imagine how much better we'd be as a team without Terlich and Grimes constantly making idiotic mistakes? We'd easily be in front by now.

Far out. Impressive effort by the other 16 to pick up the slack.

Grimes decision making and disposal is pathetic. he is constantly delivering the ball to the opposition or to players under pressure. not good enough. needs to lift big time. as for the rest of the team well done, we have a chance if we can just eliminate these stupid turnovers aka Grimes and Terlich's we have a chance. JHK needs to think a bit more about what he is doing we had momentum and the wind and we kicked it back and forth until we turned it over. Need to go down the line if in doubt, trust our guys will fight for it or try to get it out of bounds so we can reset.

The boys are playing as a team. Loving Matt Jones today and some very clever plays by Watts, Salem and Bail.

Pedo also having another strong game

Unbelievable half from us. Hard to see how I can walk away from this match disappointed.

Whatever happens, and I expect us to lose, we can be so proud of this effort.

Roos too did well to adjust our set up after quarter time.

We still make silly decisions and turn it over, but the midfield is an 800% improvement on last year, as is the effort and intensity.

Keep it going in the second half and we can all be incredibly happy.

One hundred point margin coming up I fear.

At risk of being cited by the MRP ---- BUMP !!!

Half time.

I'm glad the Grimes reality has finally caught on.

Dumbest bloke we've had on the field in some time. He'd be last picked for mine.

Not to mentioned he's now even turned timid at the contest, always slowing down before he gets to the ball.

I love watching this team, yet Grimes is infuriating me and dominating my thoughts.

...anyway... The Jetta. Most improved? Giving everyone's love child a bath.

Pedo. Most improved? Marks everything.

Dunn. Most improved? Mr reliable.

See the theme here?

Last year this game would have been over 40 minutes ago, this year we fight like dogs.

Would be in front had they not gotten 2 BS goals.

Won't be surprised if we fall off in the last half. But I won't be surprised if we win either.

Roos is some bloke.

    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

    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
