  • 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.


Coburg Lions v Casey Scorpions


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts


footy under the AFL, has become very orchestrated, manipulated, adulterated.

IMO its no wonder these results happen when they throw games in the interest of picks, & also in the name of development & next years season...

what abut the now, & the people who put their heart soul into helping, or supporting with time, driving hours, & money, gate costs, etc...

respect has left the building in footy, gradually over the past 17 years.

I'm over it. they're playing so they can miss finals (not), is totally disrespectful to people.

KC how did Kent go? Hoping he got through unscathed.

Do you think Tom Papley is a serious chance to get drafted? Has kicked 25 goals at TAC Cup for Gippsland Power this year and he seems to bob up for a goal every time he plays for Casey. I think he is a solid built half forward?

I'm interested in Papley too. The goal totals and possesion totals for his TAC stats seem solid and the Casey twitter guy is obviously a fan.

I wonder what his athleticism is like because he seems to have the skills for VFL at least.

Apologies if it's been mentioned previously, but is Tom Papley the grandson of former Swan Max Papley?

I know Max moved to Bunyip and has a son David. Tom is from Bunyip.

Pretty sure he is.

I vaguely remember Justin Plapp mention that and that he is a player to watch out for at the Round 1 Casey luncheon.

Apt choice of user name.

what, you think not trying to win games of VFL, & play finals is good for footy. pulling player away at selection, & mystery disappearances throughout the season, you really need to take of your afl coloured glasses, & look thru clear lenses for once.

Well they didn't do that very well today, coming back from 20 points down to win....

I'll tell you what, I'm over you having a go at me whenever I have something to say. What say I catch up with you before the Carlton game and or any other time and we can just have a little chat. I don't care what this costs, I have had enough of your continued criticisms of my posts and personal attacks.

So is this happening or not? Anyone going to be streaming it online?

I don't know if they are doing it this year, & at the halfway mark of this season I thought they'd changed, but over the last 7 weeks or so, I'm not so sure things have changed... its not trying to lose every game, come on, but if you want to miss going deep into September, then finishing 7th or below is close enough for many AFL affiliates, who want they're players rested thru September/October.

this is bad, very bad, for the game.

A month or so ago when the MFC injury list was dwindling and Casey was playing up to 15-16 Demons in their side, they were winning games. It's quite likely that today they will be down to 9 or 10 and, if he plays, I don't see Dean Kent having a big role in the outcome because of his lack of match fitness. That doesn't augur well for Casey's finals prospects because next week they take on top four team Sandringham at the Beach Oval.

And for those who will miss big Jack ~

Is Fitzy injured or ill again?

OMG he showed a turn of pace for anyone, let alone a giraffe.

    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.

    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
