  • 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.

Sorry but how many other players punched the ball away into the crowd when it was clearly over the boundary? The look on Dawes face when he did that and got pinged indicated he knew he'd be lucky to get a senior game next week.

WEll I can't blame him for being frustrated, I felt like punching the ball away too and I was 700kms away

I am ANGRY not sad or moping

ANGRY...that is what we must be

13 goals to 1 in the second half

ANGRY....Don't let the players off..

THIS IS EXACTLY WHY N. JONES IS NOT AN A GRADE CHAMPION

He Goes Missing when he must LEAD

Not the only one....all our leaders failed dismally. I reckon Jones is injured.

Davis got on top of Hogan, Ward did so many brave things and Mummy punched everybody up.

Why are you angry? GWS have got a magnificent midfield and they unearthed another one today in Wilson....they've also got 15 first round picks that didn't even play today!

We're a long way from being competitive against real talent.

Lets get it clear as there seems to be some falsehood in the game summary by posters on here. We stopped running in the early 2nd qtr. The overlap stopped and we started playing down the line. There was one decent quarter in this game. The only differences between the 2nd qtr and the 2nd half was GWS conversion ability and the self confidence that grew with that

some said last week that the hard MCG will tell in the legs over the next couple of weeks... the 'g's' grass was short, the soil hard, & it was mentioned that players legs will be sore for weeks.

Why can't we come out in the 3rd quarter and steam roll a team for once??

They better respond next week against Adelaide.

Yes i wouldn't like to see another 186 which is what will happen if they play a whole game like they did in that 2nd half

Be great if we can keep it to less than a 100 points

If you are not angry tonight then you are forever accepting nothing

33 points up and the players went soft upstairs

That is why I am angry...

I'm worried about next week, Adelaide are amazing!! They are so skilful, so much pressure on the opposition... We're screwed if we play the way we did today next week.

That's an excuse, we were just beaten by a much more talented side, which are starting to get their act together. The lower clubs can never be expected to compete with a club that has been given so many concessions, AFL know that it HAS to work in Western Sydney if they are to save face, They have invested a lot of money to ensure it works. We cannot begin to compete with those odds.FACT!!!!

Angry after 8 years of shite?

Nay, fkn exhausted.

I actually don't even care, strange really. Have just decided I'm not going to do this to myself anymore.

I'll check the scores occasionally but not going to put other things off or turn other offers down to watch the MFC anymore.

Disappointing that we had control and lost it. We've heard a lot about how to stop a team getting a run on but it didn't work today. Obviously we need another string to our bow! GWS outrun us... after the pre-season we have had, that is demoralising! This was a winnable game up to half time! We did not get back into the game on any level... Don't tell me that GWS have arrived! They are not going to make the cut against any top 8 side... ever!!! OK, good time to re-assess

Jones... must be injured

Dawes... JKH may have been better

Viney... where did he go?

Howe... where are you playing in 2016?

    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
