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.

Id put it down as inertia. The momentum will have dropped off after the Hawks. Will all but come to standstill after Crows.

Thats not negative nancy, just a 'what is ' 

41 or thereabouts a sterling effort by the deluded faithful.

Time for the well paid to start repaying that faith or it'll slide back quicker than a rat down a drainpipe.

The additions at Sunday's game were held over for reporting this week bb.

"Figure out Aussie Rules footy" 

Enjoy a uniquely Melbourne experience with an afternoon of AFL at the MCG!

Aussie Rules football is a huge part of Melbourne’s sporting culture, and the mighty Demons (Melbourne Football Club) want you to catch the fire! They’ve organised an AFL familiarisation event for uni students who are intrigued, but can’t quite make sense of, the game – or just looking for a fun and active way to spend a Sunday.

Come along to a Footy 101 workshop, starting with a game intro, an active session on the field, then head over to the MCG to watch the Round 9 game between the Dees and North Melbourne, enjoy some ‘traditional’ footy fare, and a beer if you like. ALL FREE.

Sunday 21 May
Arrive from 11.45 for a 12-1pm hands on session:
Gosch’s Paddock (Corner of Punt Road and Olympic Boulevard, East Melbourne)
www.mopt.com.au/about/sports-precinct/goschs-paddock/

Register to attend:
www.melbournefc.com.au/fans/engaging-melbourne

Looks like the football club is trying to attract international university students as this was posted on the University of Melbourne home page. Could this be the way we end up cracking 45k next year?

I've thought for a long time they could tap into this, especially at Melbourne Uni. Think they did something similar with a Lions game a couple of years back (maybe 2010?)

It's a great way for overseas students/travellers to "assimilate" as much as I hate the connotations of that word. Sport gives people a commonality.

I'm all for assimilation, regardless of "connotations"

Good initiative from the club, although I must admit I'm one of the minority who thought the China thing was worth pursuing.

I'm an MCC member, so my membership is nothing more than a donation.  

I'm not rushing out to get one by Christmas.

Back in that day i too thought the China thing had merit. Maybe non Premiership point games might still have a place. There's a huge untapped market amongst those 'travelling' through for 4-5 years and they might help disseminate the joys of our game, and so why not try to harness some of that for us, but here in Oz.

Good initiative by the club to do this footy 101 idea. I hope the club gives them a scarf or something to wear, once you give someone your teams colour it's hard for them to look at anyone else.

    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

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
