  • 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.


If we lose to Essendon

I’ll not bother watching another live game until we win one and then I might bother with a replay.

A heavy loss to the Bombers would be devastating for the Club, players, sponsors and us supporters.

And I’d like to send a big FU to the media who made us out to be the next big thing all off season.

Season over if we lose to Essendon an honourable loss won't be good enough and it will be another wasted year.

Similar position to last year. We had just lost 3 in a row (Geelong, Freo and Richmond) and we just had to beat Essendon. Thankfully Danniher couldn't kick the side of a barn that day and we ran over the top of them in the second half. Watts and Petracca both kicked 4 that day. If Hurley or Hooker nullify Hogan, I just can't see us winning.

If we can keep Daniher in his current rut we will most likely win. 

Our game plan is much better suited to Etihad (as it is 20m narrow than the MCG) so its much harder for a team to find an outside player from a stoppage and stream forward. 

We have had good success at Etihad and we find it easier to defend.

It may well be a Bradbury game - last team standing depending on when the fatigue of a short break sets in.   I think we will win!

If we lose to Essendon I think finals are off the cards for 2018. We’re a quarter of the season down and we’re a rabble at the moment. We’ve had a good run of games in Melbourne and are yet to play a number of top teams or travel. What a horribly disappointment this season is turning into.

You think I’d get used to it after following this loser club for decades, yet here I am getting disappointed still!

Just watched the pies dons game and it made me want to change to pies

 

beyond that telling admission, I hope that someone (anyone) from the MFC FD watched because it showed how to [censored] the EFC (I can't remember the last time we won by 60pts). No doubt though everyone from the MFC was at a johnny walker promo party laughing at our improvement . 

 

Of course it all turns on us actually kicking goals

I'll tear up my MFC/MCC Supporter Membership that doesn't include game day access. ?

God I absolutely hate the Bombers and their arrogant self-entitled supporters. Watch Joe Daniher TURN IT ON against us!

The only silver lining of us losing will be that it might force a significant change in this club of perpetual F-ups.

If we lose to essenscum and then the saints it is all over. Adelaide will be laughing at us.

The whole comp is at the moment. We all know what it will take to stop the sniggering, but we are rock bottom in form and confidence.

I actually see the Druggies winning this one.

What will i do?.... I will ask the person in charge of my roster to find me shifts on all the Saturdays/Sundays i decided to take off to watch my miserable club play footy. Might as well get time and a half and ignore our stinkfests. I will drink less, stress less, and have more money in the bank.

Massive game for both teams, so I’d expect a big response from the Bombers. We need to be prepared to run this game out better than them, we’ve got the extra day and they also had to play much of today two men down. 

As for what I’ll do we lose, I’ll just give up on this year. Doesn’t sound like much but I feel like this was a year for us to move forward past our horrific recent history. We will be a laughing stock if this year is a bust.

I would hate to be an administrator at the MFC! Poor sods who have to look after sponsors, get new sponsors, etc etc.  It must be a nightmare for our behind the scenes team trying to keep this club financially afloat!

If we lose to bummers it’s curtains!  Membership will again grind to a halt.

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. 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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.
