    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.

The first upset has already occurred. I'm upset that Carlton are part of another televised Friday night game. It's an outrage!

That worked well last year.

Crows fans will be really happy.  They've just been tipped out of the eight by a bee's and replaced by .... Port Adelaide.

Classic Luke Darcy getting excited by Rance when he allowed an uncontested Essendon mark in their forward line.

Just the standard commentary by the commentators and media about Rance. Back before half time he marked uncontested in the backline, then took off and kicked long to a two on one with his teammate out-numbered. Ball turned over immediately due to a bad decision and bad kick by Rance, but commentators blew their load about how good he is at rebounding! It's excruciating every week listening to the hype around a guy who repeatedly f*cks up and gets smashed one-on-one. He wouldn't be in the top 10 backmen this year, let alone in the conversation about best of all time!

Two dogs breakfasts of games tonight on "primetime" television. No wonder TV ratings are in the toilet if this is the rubbish being served up.

That was embarrassing by Essendon defence just then. Would've been nice to be 2nd on the ladder tonight, you useless drug cheats!

Not unhappy to see them brought back to Earth though.

LOL at Rance's dive just then, pathetic! I'm actually convinced that the commentary and hype around him is a giant prank on me and I'm part of a Trueman Show type thing this year. Absolute batshit crazy!

Tigers smashing them now and getting a percentage boost. Looks like both them and the Eagles will overtake our percentage tonight. We still have a firm hold on third place though with Swans over 20% behind us.

Pathetic dive from Rance. Of course, every commentator in the boys club will remain on their knees undoing his fly every night, gushing pleasantries about his extraordinary defending.

Surely the most overrated defender in the comp.

And then he blamed it on Floss-Stone (I mean, he DID slip over, but I feel like Jake Lever would have still punched that ball into next century).

better for the top sides to win (eagles/tigers) and put more space between us and those below.  

IMVHO it is always best for the lower side to beat the higher side, Demons games excepted.

I believe in bone bruising and will continue to do so until the medical profession is completely overthrown resulting in the execution of all doctors and their wholesale replacement with holistic crystal-lovers.

Thank God Essendon are poo again, I was starting to worry. The temporary seat in 2nd was nice, but it’s important that order is restored. We can always pass the Tiges later.

I hope Richmond are aware that this thrashing they’re dealing out doesn’t count, though.

They are a disgrace they are that bad they should hand over Anzac day and Dream Time to us.

Is anyone else not surprised with how bad the Saints are?  I would like to think most could see them falling off a cliff the moment Riewoldt retired.  That bloke is a superstar for keeping them competitive over his last few years in the game.  They might have kicked a few in junk time but make no mistake, they have 1 win and 1 draw after 11 rounds and look like going nowhere.

Also, thanks to the Drug Cheats for allowing the Tigers to give their percentage a huge boost.  Pricks.

When are we going to hear more noise about the free kick differential in Perth particularly west coast currently 25-11 Seems week after week it happens 

There’s been noise about West Coast’s free kick advantage for at least four years. Nobody knows what to do about it.

The drug cheats are excruciatingly bad. Goddard should retire. I hate Goddard, I hate the drug cheats, I hate the Toiges. What a crap match. I think I'll do a cryptic crossword.

Mad Dogs on me makes rousing cheer (2-6)

Yes the won again, this time they limped over the line at home to a struggling Saints.

The big think they achieved is once again they won the free kick count comprehensively at home by 25 to 12, they are simply a juggernaut, it’s amazing such consistency.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    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
