  • 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.

norf would have had this game pencilled in as a win.

Really surprised they didn't bring in Preuss, as he manhandles Max, and could have curtailed his influence.

 

Anyway, eat a slimy bucket of dciks norf supporters.

A win like this makes it very tough for the players at Casey to get in the side, but that’s exactly as it should be! Itdhould be blooody difficult and once there don’t lose your spot.

i was a bit disappointed with the delivery inside 50. Seemed hap hazard at times. Other times it was gone.  What a win.  Go dees!!!

They shouldn't have even had a 4 goal lead, honestly the worst umpiring I have seen in a dees game in that first quarter

Ben Browns stats look inflated. 3/4 of his goals were from frees. (One where he faked it and another earnt by his team mate).

Wasnt the fanciest of wins, but boy does it feel good to put those campaigners back in their box.

Good team effort to come back from a super sloppy start.

Horrendous umpiring. Really needs to be looked at. That call on fritsch was the worst ive seen in a long timem

Jordan Lewis was very very good today.

If not for those silly umpires it would’ve been a ten goal win.

That's why Bugg gets a game hes not the cleanest player but he'll always give you a contest. Salem was very good as was Wagner. After the first 10 minutes it was a pretty clinical team effort despite still wasting some inside 50s and a couple of scares particularly late in the 3rd.

Agreed. Oscar is in my votes. Great game from him, helped by a much better defensive effort all around.

Really looking forward to watching the replay of this one, so many stupid losses to this rabble. Though I have a feeling I’m going spend some time confused about some frees. About bloody time we broke the curse. 

I believe that is most (if not all) of the crazy streaks/hoodoos gone. 

[EDIT] [censored] yeah!!!!!

Just clocking in for the first time in a while to say that this will 100% be the most satisfying win of the H&A season. We beat North. The last of our dark day hoodoos is dead. Thank the heavens.

Don't forget we still owe Carlton for last year. Also Essendon, Collingwood, Richmond, Hawthorn, .... well just pencil in the whole comp!

Max has gone to another level, those pick ups from his ankles to feed teammates, wow. Kent’s pressure inside our forward 50 was immense. 

Sorry Jordan Lewis for the spray in the second quarter. We will sleep well tonight, go Dees!

That was some shocking umpiring. Brown gets a free kick for elbowing Lever in the head... What The?

I am prepared to admit that Wagner is not a total waste of space and try to be mentally fairer on him in future. I have struggled to understand why he was in the team since some of the hideous butchery of the ball he produced last year. He seems to be fairly reasonable at the moment.

Kent seems to be back in form, wow, pressure on selection is going to get fairly fierce!

Go Dees! Great win, we needed that!

    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.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
