  • 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.


GOODBYE MR. CHIP FRAWLEY

So Waite has come out and said he is going so why hasn't Frawley said the anything yet?

Maybe loves the attention, surely all offers have been received by now. I hope that the story of our offer is off the table is true.

I would suggest that Waite had one suitor and the deal with the Roos has been finalised.

I would further suggest that once the ink is on the paper with either Freo/Hawks/Cats he will announce too.

Greg Swann currently on trade radio having a sook we might be getting pick 3 for Chip

His team Brisbane would move from pick 4 to 5

What a sook, shut the [censored] up Swann you clown

Greg Swan is on Trade Radio has brought up the issue of "Melbourne has done a really good job selling the idea of getting pick 3 for James Frawley, we dont!" Basically said that it effects the Lions as they are straight after them in picks and that pick 3 is too high for a player like James Frawley. Said an end of first round would make more sense.

Everyone is banging on how pick 3 is to high and how the hawks only got pick 19 for buddy. But if the hawks finished where we have they would of got pick 3 aswell I wish we finished 1st and we were only getting pick 19 for him

God I hate everyone who is saying this. The whole point of the compo weighting is to make sure lower clubs get well compensated. I'm sure Brisbane would want to be well compensated if one of their top players left through FA. I'll be so [censored] off if all the clubs start arking up and we don't get pick 3.

Dead set [censored]. Bet if the shoe was on the other foot and Brisbane were losing an AA key defender entering their prime, he'd be stomping his feet having a whinge about Brisbane needing a first round pick.

I do think we'll get pick 3 and I'm confident the AFL have promised it to us behind closed doors, but I also get the distinct feeling there will be faux outrage from other clubs once it happens, and the AFL will end up canceling compo picks as a result.

I can already hear the chorus of whine from other clubs.

Im pretty confident pick 3 has been telegraphed to the club.

We wouldnt be shopping it if we didn't have it.

Swan's a [censored] and he has plenty of mates around the comp who are as equality hypocritical.

In reality 4....5....what difference. ..they wont have it !!

I sure the Clark fiasco and the other stuff that has happened to us will get factored in to getting pick 3. PJ will be right into the AFLs ear and it will be part of the deal that meant we so readily accepted not getting a PP.

Let the others bleat as much as they like.

We have been stuffed by adherence to league rules and now people are suggesting we get further stuffed by ignoring them. What's next?

i thought i read somewhere that the AFL had raised the compensation issue with some of the other clubs and that they were comfortable with melbourne getting pick 3 for frawley.

Greg Swann is just a crybaby

If they had the pick before us we wouldn't hear a peep out of him

    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,

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. 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.
