Posting Unsubstantiated Rumours on this Website is Strictly Forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    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 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.

Players can have a break CS, no problem. I just don’t like seeing the Captain on the other side of the world, looking like a Clown whilst the Finals are on. 

Looks very amateurish to me

Well would you prefer him to start his travels after the finals, and so be another four weeks away from starting preseason?

I don’t care that Jack is not at the finals. 

Why is it a bad look? I would suspect most non finals players are on their break, as mandated by the AFL.

I would be pretty sure most Bombers players will be on their break, as soon as exit interviews are completed early this week just like the loser of Giants v Dogs.

Most players need their break, unlike supporters.

You made your point, that you don’t care. Fine

i don’t like the look of our Captain stuffing his face into an ? ice cream in Rome, after the year we all endured, whilst The Finals are on. 

I would prefer him to be in the Crowd, soaking in the pressure of tonight’s game, then go away. 

But if he has to be in Rome now, do it quietly and not all over instagram

We disagree. No big deal

Is the footy still going.....how odd

Almost a non-event in this household - been that way for quite a few weeks, now - off o/seas in minutes. If we do not get rid of Goodwin, OMac (x 2) and Viney, the levels of current interest will not change, just like the pre-determined rejection of an MFC Membership for next year. Depressing, disloyal, selfish and morally gnarled as it might be, I feel justified after supporting this Club since 1956 (my earliest memory of 'supporter-status') to only one premiership back in '64; but, it is more than a mere premiership, isn't it?

I would have hoped The Captain of our team would have WANTED to be in the Crowd, watching Finals and learning whatever he can take out of it for next year. Considering how our year completely fell apart. 

Tonight’s game will be flat out. Neither side will want to play Meth Coke

Go and watch his 2 finals matches against Geelong and Hawks last year I think he knows about finals intensity 

Last night would have taught him SFA

Don't bomb in high and slow to the Eagles defence

You need to apply pressure at the ball carrier to prevent the Eagles from playing their kicking game

Essendon lack inside bulls and until they address it they won't be any good in September 

Don't play to many injured players

Cats at it again. Stanley out, Menegola in. A ruck for a midfielder.

At what point do they start getting called on this?

When Chris Scott is asked pre-game why the change, his answer is the conditions, we thought we were too tall in the conditions.

Have I completely misunderstood the reasons behind the emergencies? I thought it was for injuries, not tactical changes???

Good advertisment for compulsory clash jumpers.

Okay in the close ups but the moment the cameras zoom out they are almost identical.

And I can't stand Bruce the fawner. You think that Pendlebury was Black Caviar.

Yes, hard to watch.

10/0 inside 50s

If it were us it would still be a scoreless draw 

And FFS we are made to use “clash jumpers” v Essendon and Adelaide. Yet these two get away with it.

the whole jumper thing is a farce. The likes of Liverpool can play in grey,blue etc as well as their traditional red but.....

I’m really struggling watching on the TV.

How could the two clubs not want to fix this??

    DEE-RUBBING by George on the Outer

    For the second week in a row, the Demons had to endure some particularly oppressive match conditions — this time, playing in 30 degree temperatures at the MCG, following the humid sticky Sydney atmosphere of last week.   The warmer conditions didn’t seem to worry the Dee’s since the ball was so much easier to handle, and handle it with surety they did in handing out a 45 point drubbing to the much fancied Western Bulldogs.   After a slow start that saw the Dogs out to

    CROSSING THE PICKETT LINE by The Oracle

    Melbourne’s performance in losing its Round Zero contest in Sydney has certainly caused the club, the coach and the players to come firmly under the watchful eye of the football world and exposed all of its aspects to a microscopic lens.   Much of the commentary surrounding them has been less than complimentary and, while some might argue that this is unfair after only one round, leaving aside some of the scuttlebutt that surrounds a lot of the discussion around the game, a fair amoun
