  • 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.

Gee I wish I was in Darwin to get some warm weather. Would feel more confident if this game was at the G.

I wouldn't.  We suck there and they beat us there last season.

I did during the week. I think we're a 50 50 proposition. $6 against MFC is insane

Its tempting but then I'll enjoy the game less if we win. The alternative might be to not watch live and only watch replay if we win.

I will miss the bulk of the game. My wife has organised dinner out with an old friend of hers (who, frankly I don't really like ) How can wives be so thoughtless ? My next wife might be better on that score.

I’m currently hydrating on VB and will

head off to the ground soon. There will likely  be a pub stop on route. It’s rather hot atm

Im pumped over this game. I’ve followed Melbourne to Sydney, Canberra and Darwin previously and never seen a win

I’ll break the ice tonight 

Sadly the maid remained at The Manor so my celebrations will probably be a solitary affair - still they can be quite enjoyable

Eat some “off” food immediately

Better to be home in the smallest room watching a feed than being with the wife’s friend

I'm taking care of the manor for you ( the maid let me in).

Some of your cellar needs updating so I'm helping to clear out the old stock.

Also, the maids outfit is a little bit formal for my liking so I've bought over a French frilly number for her .

Please don't barrack too loudly-you'll mozz the team as you tend to do when interstate.

Don't hurry back-just send her wages through plus some extra house keeping money.

I'll keep her busy .

How in the front doors are the Dees $1.12 to win this match? Similar odds to last week...the books are usually very switched but this one has me stumped.

Do yourselves a favour and put $50 on the purples...be happy either way...

You’re just being vindictive and trying to spoil my well earned break

”The Lads” would never allow one of your status admission to the hallowed Manor

The lads are roasting up nicely. Unfortunately someone bumped into the Merc whilst I was putting some essentials on your account at the grocer.

Even though I'm from the Macedon ranges I'm always shocked when I visit mum in malmsbury and it's inevitably cold. 

Very very cold

Bitter has risen in Katherine 

I shall end my perilous outback odyssey in Darwin this afternoon and make a grand entrance at the football this evening 

I expect the team to be inspired by my presence and thrash those Westralians soundly!

Inn Katherine Bitter's, uncle?

 

tonight's garb, uncle ?

I have never gambled on footy, but it is seriously tempting to throw a few dollars at the Dockers.

We should win, but we should have won several times lately. 

Thats how they make there money.

    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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

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
