  • 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.

No they're not.

She digs hard because we've been a basket case.

My view is that whilst she occasionally hits the target , many will if firing enough arrows :rolleyes::unsure:

She seems somewhat 'selective" in not only her targets but the voracity with which she writes

You only need to line up articles on Melbourne and Richmond to understand her hypocrisy

i hated Caro during the tanking saga

I love her for the last 12 months though, shes one of the few journos who are telling it how it is re: Hird and Essendon

Patrick Smith is another who has been great

If there is no drama, Caro will create some, it's her job

I find myself constantly thinking she has pushed the relevant point at the time too far

I thought drama the preserve of Playwrights.....and Facts/The discoursing of information the relative field of endeavour for Journalists !!

I hadn't taken much notice of her until seeing her on footy classified where her only questions centred around trying to draw controversy out of Roosy missing an informal dinner because of other commitments. She was trying to draw scandal out of nothing at all and it just came across as bitter.

Why don't you just critique what was said and mock her intent?

Roos is a polished media performer, he gave her nothing.

So are you going to research the correct definition of misogynistic and revise your earlier comments?

I'd recommend it, otherwise you'll just continue to look like a dill.

And you still continue to be a mysogynist.

Further, anything you recommend would be the last thing I would do.

Fool.

She digs hard cos she doesn't care about the game, just the scandal.

She is a bitter person.

First Lady of football my ar$e.

so JR you are all ok with her PERSONAL ATTACK on both CC & CS last year?

Without a word from either of them.

Now they both made business mistakes but Caro took it a lot further than just business.

I'm not sure what you're referring to, WYL. Can't remember those reports.

Her stories are okay and she's just a journo.

What I'm against is the commentary around posters maligning the way she speaks, and her gender - they're not funny.

Not sure about the gender agenda ( sorry I plagiarized that term) because I reckon Caro has one [censored]. In the same way, I reckon Robbo has no testicles. Can't account for the missing [censored] though.

Maybe Caro got them? she doesn't seem to be afraid of any big hitters around the league

She is not just a journo. She is the chief writer for the Age.

She goes too hard imo. That said. We fcuked up. But she made it personal.

Wow! You're hilarious!

Must be fun being that grumpy. I know one of my favourite things is sitting down and being angry in front of the internet. Makes bananas taste so much sweeter after a good bout of nonsensical vitriol unleashed on a footy forum.

She has a very annoying voice, yes. But I'm still waiting for the evidence on these 'gender attacks', jumbo.

    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
