  • 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.

Can't be bothered trying to rank the players, but thought our best defenders were McDonald (BOG), Frawley and Garland (much better than has been recently), our best mids were the Jones brothers, and our best forward was Kent.

... or none of the above such as when you place 22 pieces of paper each with a player's name and pick the last six that go down the gurgler.

It's a way to add some excitement to an otherwise dull night.

6 - McDonald ( made mistakes , but played with passion and purpose )

5 - M.Jones ( prolific possessions though he rarely hurt the opposition)

4 - Dunn ( continued to try , and at least broke even with opponent )

3 - Vince ( quiet until last quarter , but at least kept trying)

2 - Kent ( kept presenting)

1 - Viney ( tried , but his disposal is amateurish )

Horrible: GAWN, Grimes, Dawes, Garland, Watts, Salem, McKenzie,

Seems there's not much interest this week. Nevertheless, with Tom McDonald and Matt Jones picking up the big votes, Nathan Jones did manage to increase his lead to 50 so, with seven rounds to go, his grip on a third consecutive win is becoming very strong.

156. Nathan Jones

106. Dom Tyson

100. Lynden Dunn

71. Bernie Vince

60. Daniel Cross

56. Jack Viney

44. Matt Jones

41. Tom McDonald

40. Jack Watts

37. James Frawley

35. Mark Jamar

34. Chris Dawes

32. Jeremy Howe

31. Cam Pedersen

18. Jack Grimes

13. Dean Kent

12. Neville Jetta

11. Rohan Bail

8. Jay Kennedy-Harris Jordie McKenzie

6. Alexis Georgiou Jimmy Toumpas

4. Dean Terlich

3. Jack Trengove

2. Shannon Byrnes Jake Spencer

1. Max Gawn

Garland was horrible?!

We all have our biases - not sure if it's me or C&B on this occasion.

the ball came in 61 times and he had 9 disposals, wtf was he all night?

also waltzed straight into a tackle in the middle of the ground and got caught holding it, far too stupid for a 109 game player

I love him but he has been super super average all year

    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. 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.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
