  • 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.

did dawes hit someone in the head again. People are talking about it on twitter.

Geez Bernie is having a day out. 25 possies and 3 goals.

People or halfwits?

To half time Melbourne has turned the ball over 7 times and the Roos have scored 7 goals from it.

We need to tighten up big time in the second half.

Also think Mckenzie might be in a bit trouble with the elbow to Thomas(I think) face who went down like a cheap suit.

The only thing I can think for his defence is that he was trying to tackle another player and swung his arm around to effect the tackle.

Just saw the replay of the incident and he wasn't trying to tackle and will get a couple I would think.

IMO he should be let off just cause of who he hit.

Half-time and we're only 14 points down despite being smashed for the second week in a row. We need to grow a collective brain during the break and play the way Roosy wants us to. Clean up our disposal and we can beat this umpire-loving, free-kick staging bunch of girlie-boys.

This is everything wrong with Grimes' game, it's ok to critique it as a collective but not single someone out because they're a captain?

Grimes and Garland killing us with mistakes across half back. Garland was so reliable the last couple of years, been woeful since returning this year.

I'd move Garland forward to man up their spare man, could take a mark and kick a lucky goal.

Far too many passengers. Cross and Jones keeping us in it.

Terrible decisions by a lot today, M Jones has been poor in his decisions, Grines is a terrible option on Harvey, Tmac is one of the worst kicks and I tremble every time he gets the ball.

So many players can lift.

I hate North.

Scott Thompson is an actor, who dived down and Dawesy clipped him.
Thompson was a major [censored] when i use to play against him in junior footy and he is a [censored] now still.
He actually broke my arm when i was younger by swing tackling me after i got rid of the ball, there's a fun fact for ya.

Apart from the usual cr@p kicks and turnovers, we are also playing extremely loose.

This reminds me a lot of last week. If we don't start to control the midfield we will get smacked.

God damn I loath North Melbourne. A bunch of sooks. Lindsay Thomas needs a good smack in the face!

People are pretty personal with Grimes. Critiquing the team is appropriate because the whole team is guilty of it. Critiquing Grimes is also appropriate, but I don't think it needs to be so harsh.

What a [censored].

Scott Thompson, Brent Harvey, Lindsy Thomas.

Easy to see why people dislike North.

Love it how Lindsy stayed down for about 30 seconds before getting up. You just know that he is a soft [censored].

North: the team of stagers, divers and divas. Good to see Kent give that dumbass ump a serve for that idiotic ducking free kick paid against him.

Of course, umps are so blind they fall for their Oscar worthy performances week in, week out. Fortunately you can't act your way into a premiership, which they'll never get close to.

Oh how I'd love to win today just to get them out of the top 8, yet the result would be Essendon moving to 8th place. What a miserable conundrum.

The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    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,
