  • 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.

Hi gang,

Barnesy from Talking Carlton just trying to gauge an interest of playing a forum game against you on either:

Sunday February 11th / 18th / or 25th starting at 2pm.

Possibly Glenferrie Oval or one of your choice.

Tried to PM your admin but got an error message so as to not start a topic straight up.

We were keen for one more game before the season starts and hoped we could get it organised with you guys and girls with a 4 week time table.

If you can give me some feedback we can organise a game or knock the idea on its head early. We are gauging the actual interest and availability with our crew now.

Hope you are enjoying your pre season and best wishes for 2007.

Barnesy

I'm sure we could get together a crew for it.

Name a day and we'll see you at Glenferrie.

How about -

First choice

Sunday 18th February - 2pm start

Second choice

Sunday 25th February - 2pm start

You start organising your crew, and we'll do the same and see where we are at at weeks end.

Cheers

Also, I was thinking about this whole thing the other day, and how about having a round-robin system with maybe 1 or 2 other forums (probably 4 teams in total max to make it easier to schedule games) in which either the 2 top teams play off in a final or the top team being crowned the champions?

Or Pagan.

Perhaps he might steer them to a rare win

Ok - lets go for

Sunday the 18th February

2pm start

We will focus on that date, and drop the 11th and 25th.

And the round robin for next season sounds good, if you guys like that idea we could approach the other forums soon about putting the idea up for next off season.

Talking Carlton

Demonland

Nicks Pies ?

BomberBlitz

Saintsational

Punt Road End

Who are the others (hawks etc)

I just want to get a grip on this so we don't mess anyone up, a few of our guys are no can do's for the 11th.

What time is your family day?

Can you still get a team together for the 18th?

We don't want to go back and forward, but just get a date (be it 11th or 18th) that the majority of all posters can play.

Our preference is still the 18th.

IMO it would be totally inappropriate for Demonland/Demonology to run a function in opposition to the club's family day just as it would be inappropriate for Talking Carlton to do the same thing on Carlton's family day.

I don't have a problem with that, it's just trying to organise everything to get the best possible outcome for us all. The 25th is our family day, so we come back to the 11th February.

We maybe having to leave it until the start of next season.

Unless you guys have another solution, I will go back to Talking Carlton crew ans float the idea of postponing until the end of the year.

No dramas, we just don't want to go back and forth and still have to many hurdles.

Are you guys cool with postponing until the end of the year?

Cheers

    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

    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
