  • 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.


Richmond - delusional?

Viney would eat Martin and spit out the bones.

Not sure about that. He might be poisoned or slammed for taking illegal substances at his next urine  test.

I think this game is more about the tigers then us. 

We've seen over the first 4 rounds when teams press up on us in numbers (v essendon, gws and even v pies) turnovers will kill us due to lack of composure and experiemce.

If the tigs go head to head v us - as per the 1st qtr v pies and north game, I'll be bloody confident our boys can beat them. 

Hence why i say it's more about the tigers. If they csn take it up to us its going to be tough. Mind u if we dont turn up that could be an issue too. 

I wouldnt be too confident yet dees... Some key ins for the tigs and if they take the game to us.... i am not going to be as confident.

Where do they rank for contested possessions? I know their ball movement aint flash at the moment but Deludio will help fix that.

This weeks game is all about which demons appear the team that looses games. or the team that wins games. We have the chance to go way beyond two in a row with the saints and the gold coast before we play the dogs. All are winnable if the good demons turn up to play.

Lids won't play, they'll be concerned about the ruck battle, underdone Maric and Vickery will hand us a significant advantage. 

How many years is it now that Vickery has been underdone for?

Beating the Pies was enjoyable, but for me Richmond is the scalp I want. Their supporters continue to think they're part of something special. I want us to smash them and help them understand that they're part of nothing.

I like the philosophy that Roos and players have spoken about several times recently, that it doesn't matter who we're playing, we now believe we that our best is good enough against most, so we're just focusing on producing our best.

Wasn't Astbury injured against WCE?

Yeah he was, my bad. Injured his ankle may play again on Sunday. Was listening to 3AW / SEN whilst driving home and that was mentioned at some point.

During the Essendrug game that I watched on Fox with My daughter and grand daughter I was complaining bitterly and my Grand daughter said we are disgusting Pa.

From that moment on my day brightened substantially.

WE !

Brainwashing her while she is young, OD? I like it!

To give you some idea of what Tigers posters are saying about the Dees on Yellow and Black, I give you this gem:

"Have Dusty rucking against Gawn - the latter will be too [censored]-scared to contest"

This is only one of a number of equally stupid comments. Let's hope the team is just as delusional

Haha, this sums up that idea.

    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
