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.

you know nuthing H_T.

 

I judge people who do not watch this !

 

It is a fantastic show - read all the books and besides watching copious quantities of sport, it is the only non sport  program that i must religiously watch.

For the opening night of every season we have a game of thrones feast ( yes ..there is a GOT cookbook) and this season i made roast swan  - which was actually turkey but lets keep that our secret.....

Getting my hands on Season 5 the end of this week. I'm going back-2-back - I'll be feeling like that bloke who caught up before his date. Tired.

Well that was awesome. 

Except that one part, RIP old friend.

As for Stannis not being dead (mentioned earlier), why would Brienne lie about killing him. Makes no sense. He's dead. 

 

Geez I hope that high sparrow gets [censored] up, anyone that makes me prefer Cercei needs to die.

Really interested to find out what Varys is up to on his secret mission...

Is there a connection with Jon Snow & Daenerys? I think there is.

When do the white walkers come over the wall?

All quiet in Dorn...I miss the sand snakes

What happens when and if Tyrion comes up against his brother...who choses who?

What part does the Hound play now?

When & where does Arya connect?

Will Bron get his castle?

Lots of dots to connect........

I think the next series will sort out the iron throne and then we will get serious with the whites....

I think you'll like Sansa again after the 9th episode of the current series 

 

Ripper episode, still dislike her Sauce, even more so when she was in the dungeon, high born know nothing princess!

I think Jon is not going to be very happy with her either, went behind his back!  Little finger wants what is owed to him now.

Cant wait for the next.

Big rumours going around is that Sansa is preggers by Ramsey...ewww

If I was Jon I would be more than a little unhappy with Sansa - if he had known that Little Finger was coming surely his plan may have been different ? Obviously Sansa knew as she was on her gee gee right next to Little Finger.

Also Rickon  - you are a d!ck - have you not heard of zig zagging ? Also Ramsey was looping arrows up in the air at him for a significant distance - surely you could turn around and look at him firing at you and see where the arrow is going. An arrow from the distance he was shooting , looping, you could take evasive action by watching the single arrow coming at you.( couldn't you ?)

Spot on Nutters, in fact i said that exact thing to Mrs Kika while watching.  Funny thing is Jon avoids hundreds of them and Rickon cant avoid 1 lol

Sansa knew all right, and she may have cost he little brothers life.

I'll do a bit of big noting.

 

I was in Spain last year.

We went the "water gardens of Dorne" which is the Alcazar in Seville which was magnificent but even more interesting was our trek to Girona an hour and a bit outside Barcelona. A lot of the filming for GOT is done there and they were filming at the time we were there. A lot of the town was cyclone fenced with black fabric so you couldn't see through. The local residents were paid twice the value of any inconvenience to film - so if a TV aerial had to come down  - they would pay for aerial going down and going up again and then the same amount again for the approximate cost of doing so. They were also paid 200 euro a day to keep their windows shut. We had a lunch at a local cafe and enquired how much extra money the filming had brought in and he said not a cent. The actors were not allowed off the enclosed area for as much as coffee as they didnt want people to know in the upcoming season who was alive and who wasn't. I asked our guide if Jon Snow was alive or dead - she said dead so I am guessing she didn't know.

Well...a few of the questions have been answered.

Jon & Daenerys are very close...

No white walkers yet but winter isn't coming, it's here.

The sand snakes are back and good to see, so that's what Varys has been up to.

Tyrion may not have to worry about his brother.

Arya's back and has a few more on her list.

No castle for Bron yet, somethings else on his plate and the hound is still out there wondering around

Now we wait to see what happens next year.

Winter is here and it's going to be a long [censored] 9 months of waiting. 

High Sparrow got his, tiny bit of collateral damage...

His nun sidekick might cop a bit of damage too...

Can someone please kill Littlefinger S07E01, it's going to be too uneasy with him creeping about.

Arya went full Cartman.

All I ask for now is The Hound v The Mountain.

No a bad ending after a pretty slow start to the season.

I HATE CERSEI, now your a warrior? Look at me I'm dressed all in black with my peroxide orange hair!

Another King bites the dust...pun intended!  Was it just me or did the people in the throne room not look very impressed that Cersei was back on the throne?

And can we please have a moments silence for Margaery and her twins, we will miss your incredible......eyes.

Lets hope this King of the North can last longer than the last!

Tyrion has the hots for Daenerys, maybe he will be the one to marry her? Lannister & Targaryen bringing peace to the world.

Next year is way to long to wait.

I always thought it was a pity she didn't do her walk of atonement.

Ok, I'll see your big noting and raise you...

Firstly it should be understood that I have not seen any of GoT...not even a preview so I can't vouch for the veracity of this B.N..  

Now, if you have seen the clip of my song that I posted a link to here for YouTube (song was Don't Blame Me), the guitarist in that clip Steve Ralphs is the advisor on correct use of long bows (he makes them) and has worked in that capacity on GoT since the beginning, or so I'm led to believe. Check out the credits and see if you can find him.

Here endeth my big note.

Not only is it big noting - it is fantastic big noting - it is a gig I would love to have. How good would that be .. "So, what do you do for a living ?"  - "I make long bows for GOT".

I actually thought Battle of the Bastards (2nd last episode) was the finale and was pleasantly surprised on Monday at work to find out there was still one to go. 

Did anyone notice that Varys seemed to travel between places very quickly?

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
