  • 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.


GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Adelaide

11 rounds in  and it has finally clicked.  But still a half to go.

Get the job done  vs Crows and  then get back possibly all of Lever , May and Salem for QB.  Finals will be in our sights.

Just slow cooked and ate the most amazing lamb shanks whilst watching the footy. 

At last our football is looking as tasty as those shanks. 

Let’s keep it up boys!

Forward line looks Dangerously dangerous for the first time in a while.

Jeffy and Weed doing great.

I thinks sometimes it’s just finding that perfect balance.

A good quarter. Oliver and Gawn just smashing it. Hannan does look a tad rusty but that's to be expected first game back. 

Them losing Sloane helps. Memo to the ch7 camera man. Keep it on the footy. Christ nearly missed Jeffy's goal when Petracca passed it over because we had to see Pyke in the coaches box. 

anyway lets keep it going melbourne. So far so good.

Crows have applied basically no pressure so far. Our midfield is dominating.

Game would be over if Tom Lynch wasn’t playing. He’s been there only really good player. 

Sloane out is big - need to take advantage of this and put it beyond doubt this 3rd qtr.

A lot of players that were copping early flak from you lot, have done some redeemable things. All except one. Are we watching Omac’s last game tonight?

This year, shank has had a completely different meaning for us. Thanks for reclaiming it for a much greater purpose.

Yep, been better than the likes of Spargo, Stretch and Hannan.

I was thinking Stretch was playing a role in defence and on the wing rather well. But there you go.

Hot Slippery conditions is going to really stretch the fitness of the group later in the night. They’re down Sloane, which is a lucky break fr us. Go dees. Let’s bring this one home and light up a bit of hope fr the season!

This is exactly the style of play that got us into finals last year and boy when it clicks like it has so far then we look bloody impressive.

JKH with 12 disposals and really cracking in. Not bad for a bloke in his 2nd game from missing 8 weeks of footy.

Nathan Jones down back for me is a big win so far. Bilky Stretch also doing well down there also.

Jeffy back to his brilliant Jeffy best

I [censored] love Frosty

No I am not.

He always make a good contest and puts in good second efforts.Sometimes it not just kicks and marks.

He came in last minute and is putting in a good show, even Darcy has been giving him a rap.

Are you being serious?

Just a coup,e of minutes ago i i heard the ABC radio commentators giving him a big wrap. Yuo know, paid objective observers 

Doing his job. Again. Laid a couple of crunching tackles late in the lst quarter too which should satisy his critiics who think he is not aggressive enough

Watch with your eyes not your confirmation bias.

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
