  • 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.

Hope we kick up a stink about playing our home game at St Kildas HOME GROUND. Ffs 

Stop making excuses. We haven't brought the required work rate and we've been unclean with our ball handling and decision making all game.

Once again we can't live up to the flucking hype.  No doubt pencilled in a win just like Essendon.

Too many on here drink their own bath water and think we are better than we are.  

We needed fresh legs on a short week but no. 

We we needed to change and man up on Reiwoldt but no. 

We needed a sweeper to stop their loose man up forwarding every single 50 entry but no. 

Poor play and poor coaching and selecting.

This is a massive test for us. 5 day break, ground we don't like against an opponent who knows they can beat us. Will our players respond? Everything I know about this club says they won't. Is this "New Melbourne" real, or just a mirage. 

Yeah...

Well I've freed myself of an expectation of a win, which is a relief. Hopefully we can at least restore a little bit of respect. 

What a bitter disappointment. 

Did you free yourself midway through the second or at the start of the third?

Terrible ground.

Terrible ticketing

same f. Wittery from the umpires.

paul Roos on 1.5mill as I watch Riewoldt run rampant as H and Tmac point at each other.

Dunn is selfish,useless ,fat and finished.

Reiwoldt again.FMD

our backs are makeshift,reactive and have no aerial skill.

Two things stand out,

1.  Leg speed.   Keep thinking of lethal Mathews after the bombers game saying any side with good leg speed would beat or trouble Dee's.

2. Coaching.   Everyone could see 3rd quarter coming, but nothing changed after half time -  look clueless to clog up and defend saints fwd line,

We are playing st kilda, not Hawthorn, it's a disgraceful performance, not even competitive

St. Kilda would have beaten Hawthorn but for a disgraceful incorrect disposal decision at the end of the game.

Every  team, even Essendon and Carlton have to be taken as seriously as Vladimir Putin

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
