    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.

Doesn't this win make Demonland the number 1 forum with these matches now? I think Saintsational are pretty highly rated.

Anyway well done guys, wish I could of been there (can't believe I forgot my sisters birthday and had to miss the game lol)

I'm closest to the top right hand corner.

Great match today boys. Wise, you nailed a perfect match report. Good work.

Had I not been a bit sore {thanks to the Corporate Games yesterday all day} I would have ran a bit more and maybe kicked 6, rather than 3 big ones... ;)

Sorry I had to shoot through so quickly after the match, but I had an entourage with me who had to move on. Next time, I will stay for a snag on the barby. Wise, thanks for letting me take the first swig out of the cup... the taste of victory. :)

Boys, I've got some other photos from today which I can send through. PM me or send reply on here and I can send on the goods. Hards, Rollo thanks for organising a great day. Hope to be back for the next one in '07.

I have our stirring rendition of "Grand Old Flag" on footage too if anyone wants a peak.... :D

Well done guys. Brought a tear to my eye seeing us dominate so well. Is there any chance of the rematch being played in Feb? I'll be back in Melbourne then, and relatively fit. I can also line up perhaps Before2Long and DreamTeam. All 3 of us would be handy at worst. It hurt to miss the day, I want to at least be there for the next one.

Well done lads. Sorry I couldn't be there but she who must be obeyed decided to have her birthday at the weekend and let's face it, when you meet a girl who's birthday's in November, you automatically think that's not going to interfere with footy.

Cheers and well done to the players and to Rollo - our chief organiser and manager!

And just to show our even handedness this is how our opposition saw the game - http://www.saintsational.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25881 (if you think some of the photos are out of focus then you had too much to drink after the game)

Ah he was a mate of Oxx's, who came along to help with the numbers in the second half. A really nice bloke. He's got a background in Rugby Union and would have blitzed today had he possessed any idea of the rules!

It's Oxx's job to get him up to speed on the rules by the new year, cause aside from his obvious size, he's got decent skills and a good engine. Best yet though, no Saint went near him! I wonder if it was the leather gloves he was wearing?

Yeah, when we organise the next game I'll make sure that I take him down to a track somewhere a few weeks before the game & teach him some of the basics. If I just teach him how to bounce, kick & handpass then we should just let him loose in the midfield.

btw I'm the head up the back with the eyes shut.

Haha, that's brilliant. Melbourne players themselves couldn't have done that better.

And just how tall is the guy playing ruck, and can we rookie him? :o:o

I reckon we did a sensational job at singin' it!

If only they let us into the Sydney Opera House that night. :P

The tall guy is my mate Cribbes. He blitzed it last year, kicked 3 goals and won every hit out.

If the lazy [censored] put a bit of effort into his footy about 4 years ago he'd be a fair chance!!

He's 203 cm and still growing!

How is the knee coming along?

It hasn't really improved much since yesterday, if anything i've got less movement in it now. Its massively bruised, and hopefully i can find some time this Wednesday or Thursday to see a physio.

Thanks to the guys that helped me off the ground, and sorry for stopping play for a bit there.

Would it be up to us to challenge a different forum for a game? I dont think we'll be beaten.. Even with 15 players

A friend of mine who was there yesterday reckons that she has had heaps of interest from "Mighty Hawks". I think they are keen to give us a game. I reckon we should.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 08 vs Geelong

    It's Game Day and the two oldest teams in the competition, the Demons and the Cats, come face to face in a true 8 point game. The Cats are unbeaten after 8 rounds whilst the Dees will be keen to take a scalp and stamp their credentials on the 2024 season. May the 4th Be With You Melbourne.

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
