  • 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.

Game over. Season over. At least it was a better defensive effort tonight really does feel like we have gone back to year 2 of Roos' coaching tenure having to sacrifice all offensive to not leak goals. Really dissapointed in how this season has gone but there is just no coming back from here.

Let's give some fridge players bigger roles, ie stretch, t smith, baker, keilty, petty and see what they can offer. Start planning for 2020. 

Steven may had better be in the best [censored] shape of his life come pre season 

Backline did ok, defensive effort of the mids was pitiful.

We have gone back 5 years in the space of 6 months.

Player's have gone backwards and so have the coaches.

Heads have to roll, players' need a rocket (but not from the coaching department, as they seem to have no clue), coaching group needs fresh blood and new ideas, Goodwin needs to be held accountable, and the board needs a massive wrap over their knuckles for re-signing Goodwin way too early in the season.

Simply unacceptable.

Where do we get our own Stack?

I wish our boys would play like their jobs depended on it. If I was this garbage at my job, there is no way I'd keep my job.

Goody can talk about connection all he wants, but we don't even have the basic skills in check.

No dangerous tackle on Hibberd from Martin. Thanks umps. Then a nice elbow in the head to top it off and still nothin. 

Umps have been hopeless but that’s not why we lost.

"we will see a better performance" Goodwin said.

 

5 goals for the game, smashed physically, and 2/3 the tackles even after chasing tail all night.

 

We are Melbourne.

Pls move Misson on.  Too many fellas that should be able to burst free from congestion or opponent just have nothing at all and so easily caught.  This early in the season we should have come bursting out of the blocks running on top of the ground yet apart from Frosty we've shown nothing in this area!

I love how they keep gushing about the Stack bump.  That's right, tried to run through a bloke running back with the flight.  So courageous.  Did so much damage that Jack's already back on the ground.

I err on the side of optimism and I think you said you wouldn't panic until we were 5-0, but this is not good mate.

I've seen some Monty Python pics today, but if you can be optimistic after today.... I think there are some Black Knight pics coming your way :)

    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

    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
