  • 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.

Farewell Dom Tyson

It's a shame things didn't work out for him at North. I've seen him a few times at the Cherry Tree down in Cremorne and the Denis The Menace cafe round the corner. I think he has a golf apparel business with his brother that should keep him busy post AFL. 

Sports equipment business in the parental family as well. They’re good people. All the best post footy, Dom, and thanks for your service at the Dees during a tough period. Will always remember his big last quarter snap from the southern Punt Rd. corner at the MCG when we beat the Hawks for the first time in whenever. Hope he can get around the boys now.

It’s thoroughly ridiculous to declare the Tyson trade a bust because we might trade him out 5 seasons after the fact. He was a ready to go inside mid, who instantly made us better at the time. He migh

Many struggle with the concept of "win win" and think there has to be a loser.  I know it's a hard concept.  My son was 8 before he got it.

I will always remember the pivotal role that Dom played in that amazing first up win at the Adelaide oval. He was a valuable pick up for the time in that he was ready to go straight into the team and make an impact. Importantly when Roos brought him over he made it clear that Dom was expected to play his role, nothing more. 

Thanks for your time at the Dees, hope he gets on us for the finals!

Given my display name, I feel obligated to post in this thread and I'm disappointed that I haven't already done so. 

Really rated Dom when he was at his peak and played a good role for us, still remember that goal against the Hawks in 2016 which helped to break that run of losses to them. 

hope he gets another shot at it if he wants to. 

Thanks for everything Dom!

I've been heavily considering Meven Stay or Gax Mawn, but Sparlie Chargo now has to be contemplated.

It did work out. We got him during his best years, he was a valuable contributor during the rebuild, we continued to build after he was traded out, and he got a much longer career than the average AFL player.

Only pity for mine is he couldn’t quite notch up 100 games for the club.

Sorry Nasher. I meant for him. I liked him, hence the 'Dom' in Domgus Petrogan.

Should stick with a midfielder in honour of Tom Dyson. I suggest James Jordon - which will then become James Jordon

Harking back to an earlier era ... Flobbie Rower

That is one name that should be respected. How about Darl Citterich instead. Both champions, sadly Robbie was taken too early. Imagine if we had him on one wing and Langers on the other.

Yeah I realised that. I  didn't mean to sound like I was having a go at you it's just that Flower was such a special player and he's gone like Wight and Stynes.

    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
