  • 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.

Every game this year we have only played 3 quarters. And conceded 5+ goals in the poor quarter. Coaching or players?

This, 2 men down or not, is simply inexcusable.

Maybe Goody needs to look at how his structures are going?

Questions need to be raised with the FD. It isn't just one guy who selects the team.

Jones is a soldier

not a General. Never has been. 

He is tough, but his kicking has always been suspect.

Some of you guys are deadset flogs.

How many teams win games 2 men down in the modern game? Nothing anyone could have done about that.

 

The problem wasn't the 2 men down, the problem was the first half where we absolutely smashed them from here to hell and were only a couple of goals up.

Spencer going down was another kick in the balls, but doesnt excuse the lack of poise or leadership or fight.

Another game that we had and let go. Three weeks in a row.

 

Make all the excuses you want, season is slipping away at a rapid rate now.

Some of our so called  best players are just horrible with their decision making and disposal generally and get caught far to often standing flat footed (Hogan included). It's a very slow and combersum mid field, Clarry and Tracc excluded (when in there) heart. It's not beating up it just is what it is. We are a bunch of hard working potatoes with some pretty good outside talent and an outstanding Clarry on the inside with a bit of Jeffy up forward. Our mid field failed to see out the match again. Good teams find a way to win under adversity, we don't,

I  am concerned.

3rd week in a row we were in a winning position and we can't seal the deal.

For those who have been talking about 'who will be a part of our future', I hope you have paid the price for that type of thinking. We need to win games NOW. Nothing is guaranteed as our present shows us.

Hahaha some of our supporters are pathetic,you give us ruckman and we win that game, we lost 2 forwards straight away, hogan was up against it.  

Always excuses. How about just gritting the teeth and getting on with the job.

38 points to 2 says it all. We still have no idea how to tough it out.

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
