  • 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.

My strategy would be to let Collingwood make all their other moves, delay a bit in the trade period, and then hopefully they still need to move him for everybody's sanity as well as their list balance after preparing for life without Harry...

Then at the last minute, once they have to move him... lowball them like crazy.

Amazing amount of bile here for someone who wanted to take a moral stance about material that was clearly anti-gay. Just because you complain about such discrimination doesn't make you a 'nutter', 'sc

Pies have said they think it's best that Lumumba moves on for both parties, they have made their decision and whilst they wont off load him for nothing they really can't justify now asking for a high pick

"I think when you go through those times ... I mean I had to work out – H and I both had to work out – if we thought that we had a relationship that could continue," Buckley said earlier this year.

A year on, Buckley has decided that the contracted premiership player should look at his options to play elsewhere next year

When you compare a bloke like Buckley, who shoots his mouth off in press conferences and doesn't consider the consequences, and then you look at our bloke, they are world's apart. Roos is always angling at something, always very considered. We're very lucky.

Lumumba getting under Buckley's skin is worth extra brownie points.

I'm comfortable with HL, Roos is light years ahead of Buckley in terms of soft skills. And watching HL shepherd Barry Hall for Maxwell shows he's got a big heart (see 50 second mark) pick 23 or 28 not fussed. Vince was supposed to be a problem child, had a great year. Cross was solid for his games, Pederson and Dunn both re-born. Hell he even got a hug from the Dalai Lama, he's practically anointed. And can kick a 65m goal...

DC, a fan produced video? whats your point? he can play, he has heart, couldn't kill him with an iron bar, how is it ok for Brett Kirk to be alternative and not HL, it actually makes me think if he says he wants to come hear he might actually mean it.

I wonder where the name thing came from?

Was it his original birth name, or did he make it up himself?

Funny.....as I was typing this I was thinking of how many times the Collingwood fans would have discussed exactly the same topic.

Far beyond their intellectual capacity I would imagine - many probably didn't even notice the name change

"the prince... the one who will have the last laugh , and is gifted"

lol this bloke is hilarious

hilarious maybe - I just hope he don't really take himself too seriously

The Beams deal has just gone through. Beams for picks 5 & 25 and some other Lions player i have never heard of.

Apparently, this will allow this 5 team mega deal to go ahead.

Not officially?

and they got ripped off

Losing a proven superstar for draft picks is hilarious, and they wont get any of Petracca, Brayshaw or McCartin

I love it

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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
