Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

I’ll be there, over from Perf. At this stage I might snag myself a full blown drinks package and canapés in some corporate wankfest according to my work colleague.

If that doesn’t come thru, I’ll be in the same boat.

British Hotel, Finniss St, North Adelaide, good public bar and nice restaurant at the back. Upmarket. Good staff and pleasant patrons. Not the sort of place for a fight. Not the sort of place for Port Fans more the Crows type. You will be safe!  More likely to have a philosophical discussion with a retired academic from Adelaide Uni or pick up a middle aged lady from Unley.

Or in town, the Belgian Beer Cafe just off Rundle Street. Recommend it. Great Beer on tap, local and Belgian and good pub food. The mussels are superb with frites.

Just on Adelaide, for anyone on Instagram that isn't giving @shitadelaide a follow I highly recommend it.

Some comedy gold generated from those guys.

Good recommendation, but I like the Casino bars, still just the other side of the walkway across the Torrens River from the Adel Oval; their back bars (outdoor balcony) overlooking the river is pretty cool and the casino food is relatively cheap plus a great choice of snobby tucker all the way down to pizza and hot dogs - but these are internal yet you do not have to be a player to eat there. Cheap booze and a full beer range at the back bar (as mentioned) and it is a first-floor aspect like a beer garden. Someone once said it is pretty at night! My summation is that it is far Ken Awright.

How to get there: Front of casino is next the the main railway station in Adelaide, on North Terrace, across a little walkway from the SA Parliament House. Walk through the casino heading north to the back bar, cannot miss it. You will be looking at the river, the rear of the Arts Centre just on the right, with the Adel Oval just across that River by a great walkway. Have fun.

You could embark on a Simon Goodwin tribute bar crawl as a pre-match warm-up, kicking off at the Ramsgate Hotel in Henley Beach before heading to Raglans in the city (via the casino).  

Add in a post game Powell-Peppering drinking session along Hindley st (keeping ones hands to ones self) and it’s a complete night out.

    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.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
