  • 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.

You could well be right RTG

i forgot about the disgraceful MRP decisions last week

I was right...just. Good result for us but, no question, the non suspension of Wines and the ludicrous suspension of Redpath (following Davis' dive) tipped the balance.

what did he do? Try a torp that didn't work? 

Had a mark about 10 metres out from his own goal. Missed an easy 15 metre pass straight to dangerfield.

Port result good for us. GWS are playing arrogant footy up till quarter time. Hopefully they can improve a lot and win well. Wet Coke winning would be dreadful.

2/2 for results going our way so far! Brilliant!

You're up next GWS, beat these soft ducking Eagles into dust!

Then we need Essendon to blow another gimme win.

And finally, we need to not seriously [censored] everything up tomorrow like we did 3 weeks ago!:o

Lucky we have bye week this year, as Geel vs GWS would be another dead rubber where one team can rest one week and concede a home final and go full strength the following week while another goes full strength for both matches and burns themselves out.

Also go Saints for round 23. The game that could gift us an away strip white shorts final against Richmond, if we win our games.

[censored] hell, the Eagles must be the most boring team in the comp. Their entire gameplan consists of:

Kick from tall to tall around the boundary line until you fluke a mark in front of goal. All the while the midfield runs around aimlessly, uninvolved, diving for free kicks at every opportunity because they refuse to tackle or play contested ball. The only reason they manage so many wins is the umpiring advantage at Subiaco; they're scared to death of contested ball.

They are absolutely one of Macca's "teams who will get found out very quickly in finals."

GWS got out to 20 points in front then got real pretty with their play. They should at least be about 30 points in front but for their arrogance. I think I will start on the VBs now.

Can you believe that this time next week we could actually be celebrating the fact we are going to play finals. Sorry don't want to get carried away but it is an exciting thought. 

Just heard Treloar on the radio saying how they look forward to next week and they will set themselves to go out on a win. Also either Howe or Dunn said last week they want to win r23 against there old teammates and maybe wreck our final chances. Said with a smile of course and a laugh. 

Well as put in other posts I hope  a miracle occurs tonight and the suns win.  But the scum will be even more fired up because they know they can make the 8. 

Imagine the media going on about how good a story it is from what they have been through. I can just imagine it now. Uggh!

GWS arrogant as ever, they won't be in the Grand final, will probably blow a prelim against a team they expect to smash. 

 

Yeah I'm excited about the possibility same as everyone, but Brisbane looking to scrape a few wins at the end of season to build confidence into 2017, I'm not taking tomorrows game lightly.

    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,

    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
