  • 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.

6 Gawn - his harassment in the first half was amazing. Needs to look at how he gave away free kicks though and got nothing back from maggots.

5 Petracca - with Oliver copping a hard tag he stepped up with Salem for three quarters. Smart arse in last term though.

4 Hogan - how mobile was he up forward and he kept presenting. If he could figure out how to kick a long ball he’d be a superstar.

3 Wagner - our best defender today - Anybody who puts him in their possible outs this week is brain dead.

2 Jones - play of the day when he set up Garlett and really lifted after half time when pace came off game.

1 Bugg - clever at times,’wasteful at others but kept working and finally things paid off for him.

6 - Gawn -  He will walk into the AA side unopposed., He is just too dominant and gave Goldstein a footy lesson.

5 - Hogan -  He will join Gawny there too.  Dominant.  No team has a matchup for him when he gor in the midfield. He is massive and can has a big tank. Usdes the ball very well in there too. Superstar. 

4 -  Petracca -  He is getting plenty of the ball and thats what we needed to see for the next step in his evolution. Exciting times.

3 - Wagner -  glad to say I have always been a fan of him. Rock solid today.  Let the improvement continue.

2 - Bugg  -  Redemption.    Kicked the sealer, and you just know that would have [censored] off the North supporters.  Thanks Buggy.

1 -  Lewis -  best game for a while from the veteran.  Perfect time to hit form heading into the Hawthorn game

Wagner. 

Amazed that anyone could leave out Jones.   His cool head in the last put the game beyond reach. He had a huge finish. Had a hand in nearly every goal.

Boy this one is tough.

6 - Gawn

What can I say? Best player on the park. Good in the air when needed and torched the hit outs against a quality ruckman.

5 - Hogan

We all want to see him kick goals but geez I love what this guy offers around the ground. His field kicking is brilliant and more often than not uses it well. 

4 - Lewis

The game he needed to play. Composed when we needed it, won a few good 50-50s, glad he’s there.

3 - Petracca

Getting plenty of it. Loved the confidence to just play on and dob it even when he had recently had the yips. Song of a true great.

2 - Jones

Came into it after half time doing what he does best. 25 touches 11 contested and 7 tackles.

1 - Kent

This could have easily gone to Bugg but I was just so impressed with the way Kent stood up when it mattered. Especially in the 3rd when we found it so hard to break through. Welcome back son!

Apologies to Bugg, Salem and Wagner

6.  Gawn  -  No superlative is good enough!

5.  Hogan  -  Outstanding.  Confirmed that he is more than a KPF.

4.  Jones  -  Back to his best and still cuts it as an inside mid.

3.  Petracca  -  So strong and finding more of the ball every week

2.  Wagner  -  Composure is improving with game time and getting better all the time.

1.  Bugg  -  Great work ethic and kicked 4 critical goals.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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
