  • 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.

"Bugg - was rarely noticed"...he was certainly noticed by a number of Tiges players and that's all that matters...he unsettled them and put them off their game. I loved the way he went about his game today!

Tmac - great intercept marks

And horrible kicks to follow.

Really love Jayden Hunt's attack, dash and creativity. I think we have a fantastic player on our hands with Hunt.

Definitely did some nice things, but there was a patch of a couple of minutes where he kicked three straight to the opposition and one out of bounds. Just refrain from kicking - I have to close my eyes when he has the ball now.

Otherwise, he's fantastic.

I like Hunt but absolutely love Josh Wagner. I feel at peace when has the ball, he doesn't panic and makes good decisions.

Wagner is going to be a good player, whenever he has the ball I feel at ease.

Wagner has absolutely shocked me the last fortnight. So composed.

... especially considering his early games. He's easily best 22. Big tick to the recruiters.

Yeah I must apologise, he has been a revelation. Sheeit I was wrong abut this Kid, but happy to admit a mistake I see a Lot of Anthony Ingerson in him and he's a better Kick!

Loved Bugg's game. Good in the clinches.

Disappointed with Dunn's game. Continues to do more stupid things than beneficial things.

It is no coincidence that the team plays better with Lynden Dunn in it! Should never ever have been out of the side! A fixture methinks!

yeah didn't notice him at all..

maybe watch the game next time..

Bugg wasnt bad for mine. He certainly put a few richmond players off their game. Dunn a few errors but still worth his spot in the team. He has missed a few this year. Will get better. Still wouldnt mind him having a go up forward and moving Pederson back. While Pedo is only averging half a goal a game, his marking and effort has lifted.

Petracca may come in for Brayshaw next week.

    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

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
