  • 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.

Bottom placed Brisbane made Melbourne look like a side of amateurs

Rubbish. Brisbane are finishing strong, are well coached and have handful of extremely good players. We had 2-3 bursts that won us the game. We never left 2nd gear which taking nothing away from Brisbane is the reality of the contest. We looked great in patches and poor in others but we never really looked like losing. Sure, the fear was there, but we closed out and held on like finals sides do. 

Brisbane is better than North and Freo. Those losses still anger me. Yesterday was always going to be close. Brisbane are a side of guns that's just lacking some finishing touches.

There's a bloke who's been sitting in N12 on 2nd level of Southern Stand for the last decade who has every game and all game (this is no exaggeration) bagged any Melbourne player who's made a mistake.  He does this by shouting his abuse, obviously getting his rocks off hearing his own voice above everyone else.

It's got a bit heated a few times when those sitting around this idiot often tell him to shut up. Why would you bother going to the footy when all you do is whinge and abuse the team your supposedly barracking for?  

Today his abuse was mostly targeted at Tyson, Stretch and Gartlett. He often questions players courage, but I bet the soft [censored] never put his head over a ping pong ball let alone a footy. 

Anyone else in N12 having the pleasure of listening to this idiot's abuse every home game?

I didnt have that pleasure however i had the pleasure of sitting in n45 in the mcc where i was next to an essendon nuff nuff who kept wanting to talk about essendon and behind me were 2 old blokes who kept asking for 50m penalties for everything. Think ill go back to the standing area on the ground level next week

I think every section has at least 1 bloke that never shuts up. Yeah i yell and shout abuse, at the umps & opposition, for the most part I don't shout anything, however there is a guy behind me in M51 that does not STFU.  Get it out of the center melbourne, use it *insert players name*, are his general catchphrases, even when the ump is waiting for his little flashing light so he can bounce the ball he will still be commentating like play is still going on.  Mrs. KikA does not like him very much at all, nor do the older ladies a few rows in front of me.

There's a woman near us on who is always screaming to 'kick the bloody thing' and one time when we finally did she belts out 'to a Melbourne player'. Noise pollution!

I love Jeff Garlett and live in Europe, but my neighbours probably wonder why the odd foreigner downstairs keeps screaming out 'Pedo' so joyfully every Saturday morning around 6am.

Great Post.

Brisbane are the best bottom side i have ever seen. 

Our effort wasn't perfect, but the players were switched on, it was just plain hard work.

But Praha didn't you nearly break your hand hitting a seat at half time? And by the way did you do that in the northern stand in Melbourne Reserved area where I was sitting nearby?

That was because they ran from one of the ground to the other and scored a goal on the half time siren without a Melbourne player touching the ball. I was referencing that. And no I sit in the peasants section (afl members).

I was in some sort of Melbourne membership for a couple of seasons that sat around that Bay N12 N13 and to be honest I stopped going because it was so sterile and boring.  I love a bit of the banter & cut & thrust between opposition supporters. I found that N13 area to be very much the "go dees" brigade and you even got a tut tut should you dare get stuck into the white maggots. 

I guess you can't take the old VFA days out of the boy

Firstly, if you've been turning up every week for 10 years to support this [censored] weak mob you deserve more than some keyboard warrior on Demonland starting an internet thread to condemn you.

Secondly, if flogs like you can't see how pathetic players like Tyson and Garlett are (just watch their turnovers and missed goals in the first half) then you must be super happy accepting mediocrity and being a mid-table team.

Another win for the PC crew ensuring that everything said at the footy is 100% positive. Flogs.

Agree your sentiments on Tyson.
Turnover merchant of the highest order.
Put him up for trade.

Problem is .... Most of our players are butchers with the Cpt Jones being one of the worst.

Brisbane are finishing strong? Better than north? Last week was a warning signal

    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

    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
