  • 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.


2015 - the year to remove all the BS records

Recommended Posts

Ok so having just finally got rid of the haven't won a round one game in 10 years tag i thought we should make this year the year to remove all the embarrassing records that are trailing us. If we can do that and push for finals it will go along way to earning back some respect. I'm sure some others will know of more but the few i can think of to start with are

Etihad - We must win here - seriously its time to beat the Saints here surely!

North - We need to knock them over this year

Perth - A win against WC or the Dockers would be handy!

Some of the Melbourne based teams they reckon we havent beaten in years apart from Richmond and Essendon lol

Any others?

The only one I care about is no premiership since 1964. Fix that one and I'll be happy

Most of them are disgustingly embarrassing (ie the decade long round one win drought), so I can't say I don't care about them. The flag is obviously the ultimate one though.

We've got a bad record everywhere and against everyone, because for the last 9 years we've been pathetic. I never saw anything as a hoodoo (ok maybe round 1) but the rest are just a product of us being so bad.

Having said that I'd love to taste victory at Etihad and against North.

North Melbourne is one I would love to break. Can't stand them, don't rate them, and we are a huge chance of beating them depending on which North Melbourne turn up on the day.

Yup, definitely this

and also those West Coast wankers (who are now down their two best KPD's so we should have a big advantage up forward)

Queen's Birthday

Full House.

It's not our "Grand Final" anymore

It's the Queens Birthday war against the Filth. September is later in the year.

Beating Whorethorn is top of the pile though.

We taught that club how to play tough way back and forgot to do it ourselves

Beating Geelong in Geelong for first time in a long time on Sunday June 21st. Just imagine what it would do for players and supporters given everything that has happened since 186.

That's the one thing that will signal we have moved on from the pain and heartbreak that has surrounded this club for so long.

That will announce to the competition our resurgence. That we are no longer the leagues bunnies.

We are coming [censored], and we are breathing fire and vengeance!

We're not going to roll the Hawks but any one of them, Geelong or Essendon would be a good team to knock over. Mostly because we all know some [censored] head supporter of one of those clubs who lectures us about where we went wrong and then who points out why their club is the template we should be looking at. The truth is Geelong and Hawthorn actually have something backing them up when their fans cite them but it does s*** me when some Essendon numptie tries to tell me how the Bombers are so awesome and where we failed. Trust me, these Essendon fans, without shame if you consider the last two years, do exist. Take it from someone living in Essendon!

Last year beating Adelaide and Carlton was massive..

This year I wanna beat Nth Pies (on QB) and WCE.. The eagles have been beating up on us for years!

So much so I couldn't give two shits that Waters had to retire.. That [censored] got away with murder against us.. Broke sylvias jaw and someone elses.. Never got weeks!

We need an out of the blue year.. And steal a spot in the 8!!

Haven't been to Essendon since 1990

Is it still the same?

Hard to say as I have been here about 6 months. What was it like back in the day WYL?

scary

I live in Aberfeldie (around Buckley Street) and have yet to really venture towards Windy Hill. If I head towards Napier Street for some unforeseen reason, I will let you know. Sad thing is it must be the football team that is turning the locals into nuffies as there are no bloody pubs around here.

    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
