  • 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.

Small forwards. Rioli and Ryan kicking goals and have set up most of the goals/scoring shots. 

Wingman. Gaff and Jetta gut running through the middle of the ground.

Ruck/midfield coheasion. Natanui tapping to advantage and down midfielders throats.

KPF. Kennedy, Darling and Waterman taking marks i50 and kicking straight.

All the above are things the MFC lacked in 2019.

Anyone else find these sort of nicknames childish and tedious or is it just me?

No everyone sticks it up us constantly. 

Give it to the p@%@k$ they've earned it and most of their supporters wouldn't think twice before rubbing our face in the dirt.  Particularly the scumsters.

Totally Agree RN. There isn't a team i despise more than the Scum.

Hopefully the Eagles continue the rout. Just making up the numbers are the druggies, they got there but they may as well not have.

Great ??

God Bruce is unbearable to listen too lol

Should've left with Dennis. Wait then we'd be left only with BT, Darce and Ling.

Richo gets a reprieve in my book, loved his emotion when he realised the tigs were gonna win it in 2017 (might happen again this year)

Amazing WC ? got away with it all

Players flat Lining and some dying. Benny still pinging around from trouble to trouble. 

Worsfold, a trained Chemist totally oblivious to the mayhem around him...Not. 

The last GF i have been to was 2006. Great game, but Meth Coke could have played another game, they were that juiced. Tonight the Chemist Coaches against them. 

The irony....

Let's not forget his mate Gardiner who was in it up to his 'Coffin Cheater' colours!

What a combo forward line Darling, Kennedy talks and Rioli and Ryan.

Match up nightmare.   

Throw in the underrated Jamie Cripps as well mono, a real goal poacher. Massive headaches for defences.

Does anyone else think the bye between Round 23 and the first weekend of finals kills off interest, at least for neutral supporters? I've spoken to a few avid AFL supporters whose teams didn't make the finals, and we all agree that interest levels haven't just dropped but have virtually disappeared.

For balance, I note that Gil MaClalchlan has said that since the bye was introduced, TV ratings, spectator numbers and (I think) revenues have all increased. It is a small sample (of seasons), and could be distorted by the teams playing, but it's only fair that I point out what he claims to be evidence which supports the bye.

The bye has certainly lessened my already waning interest.  Yet another typical AFL knee jerk reaction to Lyon’s failed tactic of resting his key players in a dead final round.  It was tried once,and failed, but they made the change anyway.  

Clueless.

Being overseas at present it only just struck me that there is only one match this weekend in Melbourne.

Is this a first for the first round of the finals.

 

And if whining Scott had his way there would be no games at the home of football!

From what I took from the “Brayshaw had a great season” article earlier in the week I wouldn’t be certain that they feel that the season was all that bad ?

Well I wasn't aware that WCE were shielded - I don't live in WA and journos elsewhere didn't bring it to my attention.   I'm not sure which is worse - a cover up of possible offences or excuses (and worse) made for the proven guilty.  Actually I do in terms of the effect on me - Essendon was particularly grating, especially after we got pilloried for tanking when lots of others had tanked, some more blatantly.  Essendon didn't need to try to make that 'defence' before journos were falling over themselves to protect and bolster them!  

Wasn't having a go Sue @McQueen @Bobby McKenzie @Ethan Tremblay can all tell you how bad the media are over here. They never say anything against the Eagles 

The West Australian and Channel 7 WA are absolute cheerleaders and the continued worship for Cousins, Kerr etc is an embarrassment

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
