  • 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.

Great to see so many new players in the votes...  good sign that our 2nd tier players are finding form after a slow start to the season.

6    J.Harmes   -  capped off a very good few weeks with his career best game.

5    T.McDonald   -     they had no answer for him and he was superb early when everyone else was missing goals.

4     M.Gawn -   another dominant performance and may well be top 3 in the Brownlow currently and a big chance to won it.

3    C.Salem -  he was everywhere and even got in on some goal action. Tough as nails.

2    C.Oliver -  a typical Oliver game ie. very damn good, an architect from the middle

1    A.Brayshaw - was on from the start.  Would have contended for BOG if he kicked straighter (1.3) but nice to see him have 4 scoring shots.

Came down from the rainforest to sell my vinyl at the West End Fair and that sat in the front row at the Gabba with the 53 other spectators. . I kid you not I counted them ..

A very different game on the fence then in the armchair and a suberb four quarter performance from the Dees. In the flesh let me say that ANB and Harmes will play every game this year bar injury not for their brilliance (unlike Clarry Gus and Chunk) but their ability to get from contest to contest and you don’t realise this on TV because your following the ball.

Best ...and you could do multiple versions..

only two lesser lights today who will be hoping Viney has a quiet one.. Petracca and Tyson... though you would expect they would survive on potential and that Spargo will be spelled.

6.  Clarry  - Even with a tag!

5.  Harmes  -  Best game (statistically) by an MFC player outside of Clarry's Rnd 2 vs Lions and last week vs Saints performances.  There is no chance he will be looked at for Viney against the Blues.

4.  Lewis  - Last week good, this week even better!  Repaying the faith.  Leadership was never an issue.  Performance now there.  Great win for the club.

3.  Hogan  - Bruce Banner eat your heart out!

2.  Salem  - A fabulous return.

1.  Fritsch  - Amazingly clean and starting to do the defensive things very well including intercepting!

It absolutely staggers me that TMac could not be in people’s top 6. Must have been the all time worst 5.1 game.

He was sensational in the first half, I gave my votes for 4 quarters of consistent footy. Admittedly, T. Mac's 4 first half goals were the difference.

Lever, T.Mac, Jetta could have won votes as well.

But don't you worry. Nasher, no-one on this site values the impact of T. Mac more than I do. He is the essential x factor in the Demon forward line. I'd love to now play Richmond, Hawthorn and Geelong with the T mac and the great Viney in the side...

    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. 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.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
