    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.

Looked at Scotts media conference...it pains me to say that it was all class.  Check out his first comment

He is also delusional saying it was even after quarter time, had we not kicked 1.11 after quarter time it would've been an 80 point win. We bullied them all night.

Oh, I thought it was evident. My bad.

I was most bullish about us beating Geelong and even wanting to play Geelong in the first round of finals and you thought they were a side to avoid...

i stand by the gif tho...

Fair call, their “stars” did scare me a bit but I was secretly confident before the game due to our manic pressure of recent weeks.

How many times did the Holy Trinity, Ablett, Duckwood, Dangerfield, plus Hawkins whinge  to the umpires wherever we did get, or they did not get a free kick?

Clearly they play so many games at KP when where they get away with murder, and get gifted the ride, they don’t realize that there are actually rules in the game  that apply to both sides

They've got six months to process that fact now...

Scott is the luckiest coach in history, took over a great team in 2011 that coached it's self, has been living on that for the last 7 years. Geelong  put everything into the Ablett and danger basket lost Motlop and the  compo pick they traded for Ablett. I was so happy when they wanted Gary back I predicted that would take them backwards. Motlop is a better player then Gary now, he won them their semi final  last year played a great game. The holy  Trinity might have worked 3 years ago, selwood is cooked, I bet in year to come selwood will tell everyone he played on after getting concussion in games, Scott is the type of coach who would tell his doctors to lie when it comes to his stars.

He is right both teams missed many easy goals after qtr time, bad goal kicking is bad football, that being said we controlled the game after qtr time, that's what good teams do they get a lead and  then control the game.

Those are good comments but honestly I’m not interested in what people from other clubs are saying about us. Seriously I just saw on Twitter Xavier Ellis saying “We all have that one annoying Melbourne friend, I couldn’t bare it if they had a tilt at the flag.” Seriously I now know why I don’t trawl through social media, because it’s garbage.

Demons also weren't that great?

What are they on? Otherwise, pretty classy I thought by the (few) Cats supporters I was around. Plenty saying good luck next week.

Yeah lots leaving as the siren went were saying “enjoy” “good luck” “smash the Hawks!”

13 wins which 8 out of 9 came from our ground.

Perhaps I have been too generous saying cats are a very good team. Above stat reveals what a massive home advantagethey have. Its huge.

Take it away and I now wonder how they would fare. May explain their poor finals record.

Social media has given idiots and morons a voice. That is all. 

It’s a surefire way to ruin your self esteem that’s for sure. If you’re on cloud 9 just read a few tweets and it will sort you right out.

This.

Me and me mates have started calling them the Pointer Sisters. Lots of finger pointing down there. 

They are in a world of pain IMHO . . . their list is aging, full of c-graders and virtually nothing coming through.

It is a sign of growing maturity in our list that despite our being unable to goal, we did not give up and continued to apply incredible pressure on the opposition, then break clear.

Only a couple of months ago we would have involuted and been run over.

Definite progress, despite the agonising frustration of wasted opportunities.

And it was amusing to hear the Cats' fans gloating over their two runaway wins in the final two rounds: just shows that easy games coming into the finals is in fact NOT good preparation.  

We had two pressure games, that we won: far better preparation.

the whateley and hudson delusion about the quality of their list going forward on sen on saturday arvo was gloriously salty

 

Hudson has really lost it. He's an absolute pill these days. Even managed to make a little snow joke during the commentary that we heard when listening back to the game. What a smarmy little fuckstick.

    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

    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
