  • 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.

I haven't kept up with this. PJ must have something in the works for the BOJ, otherwise why wouldn't they have kept the same AHG deal? Unless something fell through with another sponsor or AHG only wanted to commit to the FOJ...? *speculation*

I have spent my whole life in sales.

There  are usually two main reasons a product does not sell.

One is the price is too high and the second is that the product is poor.

Of course it can be a combination of both.

Perhaps we are simply asking for too much.

Because we didn't meet the 40,000 members during Roos' tenure? Maybe we didn't quite hit the targets we were after and it's left a gap? Or perhaps we're aiming high.

Why'd we announce it prior to at least the practice games? 

Our and any new sponsors goal would be to maximise publicity, so now is low value...

Remedy Kombucha wanted to come on board but couldn't meet financials and have since signed with North. 

Having looked at their website, it looks like a 'cottage industry' business.  http://www.remedykombucha.com.au/

A very reputable product, albeit one that falls into the 'fad' category.  I doubt the business is big enough for a BOJ sponsorship or as a major partner.  A minor sponsor perhaps.  If the club has declined the opportunity it would be for a very good reason.  I wish R K well at North.

Maybe we have poor sales people!

Sorry OD but sales people who don't sell always blame something or someone :(

"The Demons are a beautiful team - beautiful  - I know because I am smart. They are going to win bigly. We are going to win so much and so often we are gonna get sick of winning. I told Goodwin that our defense is going to be so strong. so strong. We are going to build a wall across the half back line and keep all other teams out. And we are going to get the AFL to pay for it.  I will place a travel ban on any other team coming into our defensive half.  I think I can also say that we are sick.. so sick.. yes we are sick..  of the dishonest hawks and their fake premierships ( lock them up)."  - Founder and owner of Trump Enterprises.

Hmmm....
I'm a little worried about the lack of BOJ sponsor. PJ hasn't put a foot wrong really since arriving but I think he will need to get cracking on this one.
That being said, it should happen before round 1. I just would like it to happen sooner.

    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

    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,
