Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

That was the best team win in eight and half yrs IMO.

I really hope that we now back it up for the rest of the season.

If we come out and get spanked or don't show as much team orientated footy it will be very very disappointing.

Yes but not to the point that everyone should crack it

We have seen what they can do - if they can't do it every week yet let's just keep our cool shall we

Wife had our baby, another boy and another demon member. Smoked my Montecristo with a bottle of Ron Zacapa and both are HIGHLY recommended. I've always spent my hard earned on expensive whiskey but the top shelf rum is really stating its case, will have to explore a few more

Congratulations! Hope all are well. It certainly sounds like Dad is doing well!

Paying top dollar for Ron Zacapa. Try Santiago de Cuba Anejo or Blanco. Much better rum without the rip off price. Spend the savings on your new dear one and congratulations.

A nice port or Sherry with a cigar is recommended.

And grata on the kid.

I had whiskey the first couple of times, Blue Label Johnnie Walker mainly but then tried a Glenfiddich and the blue label got the flick, I have a 21 year old bottle aged in rum barrels but that's for a flag.

I read online that a nice rum can complement a strong cigar well and I must say its better than the whiskey.

Never tried sherry but some penfolds grandfather would be good, never tried the great grandfather either.

Edit: Thanks for the kind words regarding my son all. I am 6'2 but my wife is only 5' and my first born is tiny, lucky to get a gig in the forward pocket so hoping for a big center half back

Every time I read or listen to people discussing alcohol in such a connoisseur-like way, I imagine they're doing it about heroin or meth or some other non-socially acceptable drug. It's good for a laugh.

Anyway, carry on.

I watched the replay again last night, it gets better with each viewing. Finally I don't have to worry about the big come back.

ANB and Stretch were better than I thought

Brayshaw, wow, this guy is just fantastic. His one percenters, follow up efforts, bullocking, tackling and game sense is just fantastic. If he is not our next brownlow medalist I will.......(careful) be surprised. A skilled no nonsense repeat effort natural footballer. We are very lucky to have him.

Dawes was more influential that I thought as was Spencer. Gawn was terrific, I hope he realises now how influential on a game he can be.

I think T Mac is carrying some sort of injury. His acceleration and pace was off.

Tyson is building.

Viney & N Jones are brilliant.

Watts was better that I thought, even his off ball work was good. His pressure acts surprised me.

All round it was a great team game.

Gawn, ANB, Brayshaw and Stretch probably played their best games for the club. (Easy for ANB & Stretch)

Are they quick, strongly built midfielders who can play inside or out? If so the top dollar would be worthwhile. Are they available for this year's draft?

Noticed him hobbling a bit...

Explains a bit if true.

I think he copped a corky in the first term. As well as a forearm to the head from Steve Drunk-Driving Johnson.

Glenfiddich growing up was my choice, is still good but I love Lark whiskey, from Tassie and Talisker is another good one to try.

I find the sweeter sherry and port is better than dryer whiskey with my cigars.

I have a bottle of chilli port at home I'd like to try soon. Might have it with a limited run cigar (Father's Day and Xmas only) where the leaves are kept in old cognac barrels.

Amazing.

A tin of VB and a pack of marlboro's does the job nicely, but I guess that just doesn't fit the bill.

Just watched the game again.

How disgusting is the cowardly bump Cam Guthrie lays from behind on Jetta as retaliation for Jetta's shepherd.

On that, how pathetic was Healy's attempt at justifying the bump. Healy, weak as [censored]

Guthrie is right up there as one of my new hated players.

Has a giant mouth on him but doesn't always back it up.

Congrats on the baby mate. Will have to give this Montecristo business a run, never gone classier than pusser's for rums so pretty curious what a decent one tastes like.

If you jump back on the whiskey bandwagon, have a go at Oban, it's all I drink at the moment, which was a lot after we crashed Enright's party.

Agree with that, Jetta used his experience to lay a shepherd simply by stepping into the path of the oncoming opposition player and allowing him to slam straight into his back, bravely taking one for the team. That pr1ck obviously didn't like it and retaliated with a cheapy. Should be shamed and embarrassed.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
