  • 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.

Whew. That was a lot less comfortable than we were expecting and took a lot longer, but we made it. Welcome to the new server!

Demonland has left a trail of servers in it's wake over the years. How many is that now?

Thanks Nasher. Really appreciate all the work you and the other administrators put in.

Thanks. We really shouldn’t overlook the efforts Andy ( @Demonland) puts in either - we’ve both been stuffing about with this since early this morning to get it going. It takes a team to do this stuff!

This is number 6 that I can think of. This migration was nowhere near as painful for me as the previous one, which took several days. Hopefully the last for some time!

@Nasher @Demonland

It means it might be sending your password from you to the server in plain text instead of being encrypted - it increases your risk of having your Demonland account hacked from minuscule to minusculy less minuscule. Up to you whether you want to live with that (I am) - I’m 99% sure it’s always been that way anyway.

Was hoping this would go, I use my iPad on the site and whenever I open a new page a little Collingwood symbol appears at the top, next to the Demonland in the tabs at the top, has been this way for a while and presume you know about it, but pointing it out just in case

Actually, seems to have stopped

? 

It should be a Demon jumper logo but I'll check it out. Could you send a screenshot if possible?

I know it's only 24 hours but for me the site seems to be loading a lot faster.

Well done guys.

I see we are nearly half way to our donation target.... Come on let's keep this great site going

Site is definitely loading faster. 

Telstra Bigpond still hasn't caught up with the new server yet. My phone's 4G can access the site but not my home or work Telstra Bigpond accounts. 

Propagation can usually take 24 to 48 hours and Telstra is always the slowest of the ISPs. Also the most expensive. Go figure.

....just bumping this up again....

Andy has only received contributions of $1200 toward a target of $3k that has been spent to ensure that the site stays available for all of us. 

Every little bit helps, because otherwise it is out of his pocket and Nashers in terms of both $'s and time. 

Take out a subscription, or just find some loose change in the pocket. 

What would we do without Demonland?

    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

    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
