  • 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.


THE MOST AWESOME POST MATCH THREAD EVER!!!

The person from the first half that should be rubbed out is Sicily, that was an old fashioned round arm on Bernie, a dog of an act that should get 3 weeks and the umpire who missed it should be dropped too

This has happened a lot lately. Was it Vince who was dropped in the square last week, only for the umpire to step over him and ignore the incident  

I was pretty tempted to take one for the team yesterday, jump the fence and drop David Neitz who was in a Hawks tracksuit helping them warm up. Why are our Melbourne greats helping the Hawks, especially against us on game day. Clarkson, Yze, Neitz. I'm sure there are others, perhaps the umpires were old Melbourne players trying to exact revenge against the old regime. I'm sure I saw a pair of Hawks undies under one of their pairs of shorts.

Not only that but the umpire singled, Play on Play on, why would he do that unless there was an incident?

If he saw it and didn't give a free, then why? If there was nothing there why did he throw his hands in the air and call play on?

BTW Derwayne, read this from the AFL website,

A COMPOSED Dom Tyson slotted back-to-back goals to ice Melbourne's giant-killing win over Hawthorn, but was just content to play his part in the biggest victory of his career.

In a performance that Demons coach Paul Roos lauded as "elite" by the midfielder, Tyson amassed 30 possessions (13 contested) and was particularly influential when the game was on the line.

Salem also says Hi.

When it rains it pours. The Essendrug game and the umpires from the WC game could cost us a spot in the 8. Lessons learned for next season

This has to be one of the worst lines that I have read here.

Humble apologies. Just shocked. Creative license on the anger.

You forgot the Roos game and 6-7 goals from frees to the Roos and the ones we didn't get and then we lose by under a goal, to their full side, at a ground we had never played at before.

I'm watching the replay, some early observations:

Dwayne is still an incompetent moron.

That 50 metre penalty against Viney was wrong on two counts, he was already within 10 metres when the ball was marked and he was running to be the man on the mark.

It shouldn't have even been Ceglar's ball, they shepherded Gawn out of the marking contest. Should have been Gawn's ball, but instead a Hawthorn 50.

No fifty metre penalty after the Rioli dump tackle when Langford kicked the ball away is a disgrace.

Agreed.

We could fill numerous threads with "in your face" type replies "redleg". But I personally prefer to sit back and watch these demon pessimists eat warm humble pie.

Would like to get barretts opinion on that trade now too. Only 6 weeks ago I recall he was questioning it again. But you and I both know he will be unable to admit he got that wrong countless times.

Gibson duck, free kick for to high on Petracca.

The umpire was BOG for the Hawks no doubt. I was surrounded by Hawks supporters who believed they were hard done by the umps. I think they were tounge in cheek.

Tongue in cheeks.

There was a small bit of contact with both players in the air AFTER the ball had past. No free kick at all, was in shock when it was paid and not just because it was for us

You're allowed to tunnel a player (one of the most dangerous things you can do) so long as the ball has gone past you?

    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,

    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
