  • 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.


Why I won't be heart broken if Richmond bomb out in the finals

I CGAF who wins or who loses during the finals. I hope each team gets smashed into oblivion injury wise.  My only joy would be seeing the likes of Riewoldt, Martin, Toby Greene, Lewis Jetta, Rance, Franklin and especially that sea hunt Scully stretchered from the ground in agony.

After the bombers there one of my most hated teams. But the AFL wants them to make the GF,  just wait.

I am afraid that I have got Carlton, Collingwood, the Bombers and Hawks all ahead of the Tigers. Rather see the Cats win tomorrow evening even if it means watching the Tigers two weeks running.

Would love to see them go out in straight sets.  The only decent thing to come out of that club was one of Melbourne's best music venues in the late 70's early 80's, the Tiger Lounge at the Royal Oak Hotel in Richmond... it was managed by former captain Francis Bourke who was a really nice guy.

Remember going to a 21st there and seeing my first stripper! 

Something to forget.

Now that's real pathological hate.

I'm finding it very hard to get interested in the finals after our capitulation, but the only things that would bring a small smile to my face would be...

1) Richmond go out in straight sets

2) Essendon get absolutely thumped by Sydney

And in addition  to 1, Sydney massacre Richmond in the Semi. 100 points would be nice but I'd settle for 50..

Like the Dogs last year, i'll barrack for them until i see that the umpires are manipulating the result at which point ill switch barracking sides eg the mark infringement non-50 at the end of the dogs vs gws. How could we deny the fairytale by paying a technically correct free we've payed all year! Followed by the Sydney gf.

What a delightful malaise for our yellow maggot flogs!!!!

They will have no idea of who to give the most frees to, all being their favourite idols on the ground and off.

Will i (umpire) favor Martin, the "gadget man" or "Reichwoldt", my dearest friend, or so he tells me?

What about Selwood, Dangerfield and Hawkins. The love knows no bounds.

One walks around as if he is on the Set. The other walks around as if he's got more than "one set" and the third, is king of the jumper punch set.......

I'd prefer GWS going out in straight sets than Richmond. That said there would be something enjoyable about Richmond going out in whimper.

I used to enjoy going to the Tiger Lounge to watch Paul Madigan and the Humans winding up the "radical feminists".  Joined by Ross Hannaford, Wayne Duncan and Fred Strauks, Madigan certainly had a way with words, set to the best possible musical accompaniment.

After reading Big Footy, all I can say is years of losing finals and finishing 9th has left them terribly bitter and twisted, I'd hate to see their response if they go out in straight sets.

    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.

    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
