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.

I'd give Mitch Brown another contract in a heartbeat if I had to make the decision. Surprisingly intelligent footballer.

This reminds me of a similar story that had a happy ending OX. In 2005 on the last day of the season Celtic just had to win at Motherwell to win the title. We (Rangers) were also playing away against Hibernian in the capital. Celtic were a goal up with just a few minutes to go and we were also a goal up in Edinburgh. Enter stage left a certain Scott McDonald. He not only scored an equaliser but also the winner, deep into injury time. 

The day is known as Helicopter Sunday as the chopper that was on it's way with the SPL trophy down to Lanarkshire had to change course mid flight and head east to Edinburgh instead. What makes the day so perfect is that Scott McDonald is an Australian international footballer and he son of a Celtic daft scottish dad that emigrated here.

That’s prob a once in a life time opportunity and you had the good ending u lucki bugger.

Hopefully the highlights today will include Melksham and Brown kicking a bag against their old Club and Hibberd, May and Lever stopping every entry into our back half! ?

God hasn’t melksham had a free ride this season. FMD he has been in putrid form all season and never dropped but promoted to captain temporarily.
Another awesome  decision by Goodwin.

It would be so Melbourne to lose this.  So Melbourne in fact that I don't think anyone here would be surprised.

I'll be more surprised if we win, and even win well.

Let's see if we can flip the script for a change.

For what it's worth, I can't see the Dogs losing tomorrow, so today's outcome is almost a moot point, but it would be nice to be in the game for at least 24 hours longer.

If we win today, Freo can get it done.  They have have played good footy this year and are getting better. If we win Dogs will free more pressure to win and that "may" lead to more errors etc.  Anyway, we need tow in today first before thats become relevant.

Look we stuffed our final chances up when we lost those games earlier in the season and against freo and sydney but we do need to finish the season on a winning note even if the dogs knock us out tomorrow. 

Beating essendon today and sending them off with a miserable loss would be awesome. Just to make the essenscum supporters be put through more misery.

We should win today and win well. Well I hope so anyway. Losing the final game to them would leave a bad taste.

Woke up in a great mood. Hoping to enjoy one last high-scoring win for the season and then maybe I can move on from my current coronavirus interrupted life. Probably won't watch tomorrow and just catch up with the news on Monday. If the Dogs win I'm unlikely to watch any finals for the first time in my life. Just put this [censored] season behind me and never think of it again. Go Dees!

Not sure why people care. We got taught a football lesson by Fremantle and Sydney. We don't deserve to play finals. And I'm not all that motivated to play finals only for our lack of structure and defensive pressure to rear its ugly head again.

One game at a time Skuit  it might turn out to be a good weekend The pressure will be on the Dogs with a win today. 

Freo is a chance IMO. ×

No more excuses for Weideman. After showing improvement hes done nothing the last 3 weeks.

Time for Sam to grow up and be a man and take the game by the balls today.  Youre 23 Sam not 18!

Agree on that one. His final against geelong we all thought he has broken though and that will set himself up now but he does need to establish himself more and take those marks.

You care.

And don't even try and deny it.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
