  • 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.

Yea st kilda were ahead of us in the pre-season and now we are 2k members ahead of them. Also still ahead of the Doggies too :)! But Richmond and co are still way ahead of us (Richmond 68k - i thought it was about 3-1 richmond supporters there last week, no wonder)!!

Consecutive Victories will bring many out of the shadows.

34,068.

34,041 30 April 2014.

So looking like around the same result as last year. Although a very tough draw until July. Maybe a win against the Dogs & Saint. Its Freo, Sydney, Hawks, Doggies, Port in Alice, Pies, Saints (Etihad), Cats at Skilled, Bye. Membership tally for the year finishes after this run. Mind you we could well be 4-8 by then same as last year.

Wouldn't be surprised if the hype around Jessie brings in a few thousand more especially if we have a good game this week!

Even if people don't join up I suspect home crowds will be up just to see him play and launch himself at the ball!

I wonder if it bumped up on Sunday. Our first home game since round 1.

TBH I can't see us bettering last year's total, which would be pretty terrible.

I predict 34,900.

So now there is a $50 bait to get the unsigned members to put their hands in their pockets. I applaud the initiative but I wonder what it says to those of us who always sign up, pay full price for no special reward.

The Race to Renew is on!

Don't forget those who aren't yet members have missed two home games and five matches in all out of a total of 22 (or 26 if you want to be supremely optimistic and possibly considered to be certifiable.)

Not many were complimentary about the performance.If we increase our membership from here it will be a miracle

Finally renewed - kind of sad, going through a divorce, didn't know what to put down for an address. If there is a more complicated family membership in the Melbourne football club I'd be surprised...

35000 is still not enough.

Our membership record is above 37,000 achieved back in 2011. If this club is to survive, we need to grow our membership base, something we haven't been successful at in the last 4 years now.

Wins in the next two will see a lot of dees fans come out of the woodwork

We will crack 40,000 when we win a couple of our practise matches and stop getting a flogging in the first 7 or 8 games. The capitulation against GWS & the beltings from Freo & Hawthorn killed off the membership momentum. Supporters have been given too many false dawns.

    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

    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.
