  • 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.

How sweet that moment must have been.

Yes ok Good for Jack but let's not forget that Watts was principally responsible for us being 28 points down in the first half !!!!

Either brilliant and supernaturally subtle irony ... or you're about 3 whipping-boys behind the rest of us.

I choose the former.

The real "ME"?  Or, the real Barrie Vagg?  (Hard to believe, but I really aint he!  -- Just loved hearing him kick goals as I sat in front of the Radiogram on many a cold Winter's arvo in wind blown Sale back in the day...)

"Old"??  Nah!  I prefer the term "Classic"!!  LOL

Our Radiogram was a "His Master's Voice (HMV)".  Classic, ornate timber cabinet.  Was a gem!

Another one... Watts in particular looked like he was really waiting his full 30 seconds when having shots on goal. I've always wondered why no player/team absolutely waits the full 30 seconds to begin the goal kicking run up. Especially with the gut busting running now days.

Someone mentioned it earlier but I didn't actually catch on to it, when did they start running a countdown clock at the game? I've always thought the theatre of not knowing how long is left when you're at the game is one of the things that makes our game unique. On the broadcast is different but is the countdown at the venue a permanent fixture?

Sorry if this one has already been posted, but Jack's matchwinner with the 3AW commentary:

 

 

So much better than Hamish's "Oscar-Elliot" and "Watts, kick, goal". 

Seven are really pushing him but I'm simply not a fan. Hell I'd even take BT over him.

Maybe they are referring to the shot clock?  I think they do have a countdown clock along the electronic fence but only goes down to 2 mins but I didn't take my eyes off the footy on Monday so can't be sure

That is one of the funniest thing's I have ever seen! Of the ones they highlighted I would say 20-30% of them they'd have legitimate causes to argue, the rest you wonder whether they even know the rules! 

In fact by highlighting those argued decisions it has only proven how ignorant they are! Are they going to do the same thing the next match they get a good run of decisions? When we lost to the Roos it was one of the most one sided umpiring displays I've seen, I was furious but I'd say close to everyone on here recognised that while they're a factor it's ultimately up to the players to do their job. The one passage of play that was of importance in the context of the game was the push by ANB and potential HTB following up.

Apart from that they are bloody sooks.

    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
