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.

I don't understand why we always have red merchandise, blue merchandise with red would look far better.

Yeah im with you on that Clint, blue shirt red logo, would be much better. Guess they want them to stand out at games.

There is thought that too many other teams are producing dark blue / black gear now. Even sides like Adelaide ( God I hate them ) have produced some gear predominately dark blue.

Add in gear from Carlton, Bulldogs, Hawthorn ( believe it or not ) and the cats plus a lot of black and even Dark Purple from Fremantle.

So to be different the MFC are going mainly RED.

That is what was put to me when I asked the club this question.

Pretty sure its design is by Dave Larkins better known as lead singer of Dallas Crane, who also works for the Dees.

He showed me this design 6 months ago and it looked fabulous then, but it was late.... He has been working behind the scenes for a while now designing and re-branding.

Can play too.

Well done Larko!

Makes it even better. There arent too many things that are more Melbourne than Dallas Crane. Maybe The Smith Street Band singing "It's a Grand Ol' Flag"

I don't mind the rebrand (or rebland?) at all, I am just aware that the success of the team will define the success of the club's brand.

Well done to all in the city today, happened to be there on business today and got a free footy and a photo of Nat Jones graffiti. Smart marketing. Hope they get mileage out of it and commitment to it.

But, yeah, we won no fans with this - we all know what will...

Anyone else see Nathan jones Instagram and the top he is wearing? Blue with red on it just like some had suggest

I did and must say its the best polo top I have seen us have in a long time.. Considering ordering one myself to be honest.

Could it be that the shape is supposed to represent a heart? If so, that would make sense in several ways. Although, as an anatomist who has handled more than a few hearts, I can tell you that it's a very symbolic approximation of a heart!

The blue certainly looks better then the red.

“We tried doing the emblem in a few different shapes, but we decided on an emblem that said a little bit about the past and a lot about the future.”

Umm, it has the name of the club/city and the old monogram in a shield that is sometimes borderless.

How does it say all these things?

Love it

If I was a young player (AS IF)... I would be absolutely buzzing and loving Melbourne..... as a club that has turned the corner and will succeed.

The whole package of good financial report, Hogan, Viney, the strong midfield, the stable coaching panel, ....would have me itching to be picked up by Melbourne or be at Melbourne ......and be part of what is happening.

And now the early wins......

There really is something happening.

Someone in charge is doing a very good job.

    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.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    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
