    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 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.

Holy hell, Essendon not only made the finals but are leading Geelong in the EF? Casey absolutely destroyed them.

Their team is basically the 12 top up players and some young dons as well. It's quite a strong team now. Will do some damage in finals.

Salem is out due to a cut lip earned at training. Had stitches inside his mouth but should be right to get back in the finals once healed. 

Is Newton or Tim Smith playing ?

We lead the Dogs 7.6 (48) to 6.4 (40) in a close contest

Disposals - M. Jones 17 (6 for the term), Neal-Bullen 15 (6), Michie 14 (4).

Goals - Grimes, McInerney, Oliver, Scott, Terlich, Weideman, White.

Interesting where we go from here. 

Tim Smith playing - havent heard about Newton. Newton is there - heard his name called in the third.

What's the score? got the Essendon-Geelong game televised, which is nuts when there is a qualifying final at the same time, surely you'd want to televise the best game to promote the VFL as much as possible.

That qtr I saw a lot more of our AFL guys in the action. Clarrie, Trenners, Grimes, Nibbler, Newton, Dunn, Garland, Weed. Some really nice controlled consecutive possessions, switching with clean kicking, running onto a nicely placed markable kick. A much cleaner style.

But when the Doggies got it, they also have free player options and can get through and around us quickly.

That we are. The depth is starting to show and hopefully it will as the game goes on. The Dogs are very well coached today and they are trying to implement the same game plan that Geelong used to beat us last week. Shut down Dunn and Garland, stop our uncontested possession. They are doing really well so far the Dogs but our experience hopefully should win out. 

In saying all this - if Terlich kicked 5.0 instead of 1.3 (1 OOTF), this game would be over. All getable goals. He's playing well but he'd have a contract somewhere if he was kicking straight. Trying really hard.

Why the f**k would Channel 7 show Essendon v Geelong when there is a QUALIFYING final with 1st vs 4th? Absolutely hate that channel sometimes.

Because our game doesn't feature the club name of any AFL teams.  Dur.

They (7 now and ABC in the past) only ever showed finals from Port Melbourne or the designated finals venues before that. Obvious disadvantage to highly ranked teams winning a home ground final = no tv coverage. Beats my why there are three games this arvo and only one tomorrow.

They show the elimination finals so that everyone gets a chance to see their team play in a final. Losers of the elimination finals drop out.

Terlich has been reported! He is just everywhere this game. Gives away a free kick (obviously) and its gone inside the Dogs 50 (but Michie gets it out of there). 

whilst he is insipid at senuior level, he is handy at VFL (all set shot misses aside). How many will he miss?

Funnily enough Oliver has started to have an influence and he has delivered the last 2 inside 50's and hit Weideman (goal) and Scott (goal) and we have now taken control with a 19 point lead. 

Sorry - radio said Oliver, twitter said ANB. 

Anyway Terls to Weideman into the 50 and Weideman kicks his 3rd. The AFL listed players are doing everything this term and we are now 25 points in front. The Radio so excited about Weid's set shot.

Spoke to Macca at the game. He is confident we can settle and get back on top. Says the boys panicked because it's finals. They just need to get out there and play as normal.

They already look more composed this qtr. Much more playing on and kicking cleanly up field to more free Scorps players. 

Macca didn't hand out this week's lotto numbers as well by any chance? Was spot on by the sounds of it.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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

    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
