  • 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.

Pies making the Dons look like a EFL team, if that.

That's what happens when selectors choose O Mac over Dunn

Did I hear correctly on the radio that Rance copped two weeks? 

Yep...and both Viney and Vince in the clear.

is there a possibility with the current software to put a 6 hour block on offending posters as soon as these weak ass, [censored] for tat defenses of fragile egos break out so that informative discussion of the topic at hand can be allowed to carry on unhindered. This garbage that's allowed to play out is a cancer to every discussion it invades. The rest of us aren't interested in watching these social misfits defending their little online kingdoms. We just want to talk football. 

Site admin, please look in to it. Freeze the offending posters for a few hours so by the time they can post again, the discussion has carried on beyond them.

I think this could be easily resolved by auto-correct.

When someone posts something that begins with "Shhheeeiiiiitttt" it auto-corrects the entire paragraph to "Jack Viney played a great game".

Just walked home from the Anzac Day clash with the pies leading the bombers by 12 goals at half time. I cannot believe that we let this rabble beat us in Round 2!

Losing against Essendon will cost us dearly this season. In such a tight competition, to lose to such a lowly rubbish team, is a sign that we don't really deserve to make finals yet. 

Will need to pull of another miracle win to make up for it.

Exactly right. We will need a 10 game winning streak at least to make up for it. Lotta teams play them twice...

We didn't turn up. If we played them next week we'd beat them easily.

Jeremy Howes second efforts are still non existent

and he's not nearly hard enough at the ball, he just wants soft kicks.

Well, they did beat us and there's nothing we can do about it.

Except use it as a spur to continue our good form, especially if we see other teams whipping them.

As others have said, it could end up being a virtue that they beat us. Knocked out any false confidence and forced us to bring the right attitude every week.

Can never understand this line of thought.

Who's to say the loss to Essendon hasn't directly resulted in the last three performances? Clearly something has switched because our last three games have been consistently good.

We'll never know. It was a [censored] loss. But to hell with living in the past. 

It gave the entire group the lift they needed.

If i were a pies supporter i'd be so annoyed with how they've gone to sleep here, they're going to turn what should have been a 120 point win into a 60 point win, and in a tight competition that's massive.

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
