Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

Yep saw him on podcast the other day and ch 9 re keeping blockbusters next year? This is the sort of disrespectful comment that f$&ks this club bloke works his [censored] off for this Club.  Why don’t you seek him out and ask? You are probably scared of your own shadow I suspect Go Dees

btw you should talk to administrators they’ll find you a mate

Well someone just got highly triggered, and kickers in a knot ? I've actually had the privilege of meeting Glenn. Really warm guy.

By the way I really was asking for a mate??

The truth is there is no virus, or very week, in Victoria there are 127 active cases, only a hand full are in hospital, and only 2 in ICU,

I work in abattoirs, person at my work knows many at Cedar meats, out of all the postive test, no one went to hospital, no one had more then a small cold, we live in a nanny state. Say goodbye to freedom, this is the start of the nanny state, they are setting the bar low for lockdowns, be prepared for lockdown every few years, flu kill way more then 100 people every year, that's right over 7400 cases only 100 death, average age 77, sorry to say people die, the price to pay  to save everyone is your freedom 

Except Covid is now the biggest global killer this year.  Please feel free to lick people’s faces or whatever freedom looks like to you.

I do think we got an advantage,  being able to have a full-scale practice match on the  'G'

But is a intra club match conditioning the same as a real match on a 2pm Saturday?

It could go either. We are a bit more fresher in the legs, or we just simply lack good conditioning match fitness.

I suppose time will time against the catters.. eek.

One big advantage is for the players who were not selected for the don's game as they got a 20 v 20 game under their belt, which according to Ben Matthews on the zoom members meeting tonight was 4  x 20 minute quarters

Also, 4.2 million deaths annually from air pollution... which ironically dropped during lockdown for CoVID.

weird world, and even weirder footy forum thread.

So what are your thoughts on 17,500 people dying in New York City alone?

The reason we are nowhere near that is due to the actions that have been taken

Two points,

1. Wasn't aware you were a woman. When I see the name 'Jack Russell', I would and many other would have though that. So I do apologise for that remark.

2. I've seen some of your work. You'll berate anyone that has an opposite opinion, or might have a construction football opinion regarding the board, right down to the playing playing list. And no its not a "worse" comment just because I've met the bloke. The fact you kicked up a big hissy fit over that comment, says more about you.

P.s If you cannot handle some of the constructive debate that goes on in here then it's best you leave, otherwise you're in for world of pain.

I will leave it at that as I do not want this thread derailed any further. Have further concerns, pm me.

I think that they are holding back on our game as they are expecting others to also be postponed during the season. The AFL could then organise a bye/makeup round for all postponed games. 

Have they thought about how this would work if one team is impacted twice (or more)??

So, McKenna now testing NEGATIVE to the virus!!  So, does that mean they stuffed up the original testing, and the game could have (should have) been played after all??!!!!!

Gravity is also a big hoax, designed to stop the people from rising up.

Love your work demonstone. You have similar posting strategy to my my dad joke strategy - fire off as many as possible and by weight of numbers some will hit their target and get a laugh. This one gave me chuckle

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
