  • 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.

How's the Saints reaction after the siren though....

YOU BEAT MELBOURNE YOU FLOGS, ........ NOBODY CELEBRATES THAT.

Wankerz.

To be fair you could say the exact same thing about them, and I guarantee you I would've been carrying on like a pork chop if we'd actaully done the right thing.

It's a shitsandwich but put Salem, Frost, Kent and Petracca in that line up and it's not all doom and gloom. In the meantime, I'm just taking the hose out to the car.

Didn't watch it, knew we'd lose.

Been a member for 20 odd years, constantly brainwashing my kids in an attempt to instill into them to become members forever. This is the final straw, I'm done. Sick of this constant crap we dish up.....Got better things to do in life to do than be constantly disappointed with this.

So for the last time, Wormburner signing out.

Nice grandstanding. So long.

Experienced leaders are our problem week in and week out.

We didn't deserve to win. Our leaders went missing when we needed them the most.

But honestly, if you're game enough to watch that game again, you'll see we were lucky to be that close for most of the game.

Which is pretty pathetic given how even the teams are.

We also dominated the key stats and still never really looked like it. We need more midfield class. I'll say it again. We need more midfield class.

Answer me this. How can someone take a mark roughly 80 metres out, wait, wait, wait, and then bomb it in high only for an opposition defender to take an almost uncontested mark. Happened all last week and fairly regularly again today.

Just watched the last centre bounce,the camera was on Roos screaming into the phone "Push Back,Push Back" but it's not enough time with 41 seconds to go to get the message to the players from the box.

Jones and Vince are responsible for not getting numbers back,our onfield leaders are to blame.

Toumpas followed Montagna all the way from the centre and when Montagna won possession,Toumpas was at least 7-8 metres behind,game over

Back to casey Riley and Michie, Neal-Bullen a mile off being AFL ready as well.

He was on the ground for 29% of the game. Yes he had two clangers but he is still one of the most efficient in the squad. He needss to be given a few games in a row to see what he has.

Agree that AND is not ready, fitness wise but I loved it when he went in to help Hogan in the second quarter when the pillock on him started to push him around. Hogan does not need help and would have crushed the dud on him but it was great to see a first gamer standing up.

Paul Roos is 99% to blame today

We get in front with minutes to go. He doesn't put Jones in the guts. He doesn't put 3 extra back. He does sweet [censored] all.

This team is a joke. I've had a gutful.

You have got to be fucken kidding me? So in 30 seconds after we kicked that goal, Roos had time to call down to the runner to get the message out?!?!? Point the finger at our fucken retarded players & leaders, you're up, get the [censored] behind the ball!!!!!

Enough with the Roos bagging it's the fucken players for [censored] sake!!!!!!!!!!!!

No way... You can not in 40 seconds relay a message to get players back. That is a players driven to push numbers back... This loss is %100 on the players. Roos couldn't do anything

BS. You hear players from every other club say that they practice for that exact situation. It clearly wasn't ingrained into the players, and that sits with the coach. Love to hear who Roos blames this week...

Our depth players are just not good enough - Riley, Michie, Bail, Pedersen, M. Jones, Newton and the newbies apart from Brayshaw and Hogan are not ready so we can't cover Garland, Kent, Salem, JKH, Vanders.

Another list clean out needed.

Positives - Toumpas, Watts, Gawn, Grimes, Brayshaw, Hogan.

Garlett needs a boot in the backside.

Lack of older type leadership players again.( Soon to be the past ). We are very very slow and a few of the main problems are in the previous group. Kids were good Toumpas, Hogan, Viney ( the future ). Nonetheless one of our better performances at Etihad for a while, we'll be bottom four this year and have something very handy to trade for somebody really good. Sloan I hope..Still believe we will finish better than we have started. We were always going to finish bottom six so bottom four just means we get some better candy to trade well with. Onballers leg speed a really serious concern, Hogan good , the rest of the forward line has little capacity to hurt and don't kick enough goals.

    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

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
