  • 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.

Should have been further up in front at 3/4 time but If the first 10 minutes of the last quarter isn’t a show of maturity and responding when things seem against you I don’t know what is. 

Enjoy it all, that was a brilliant team effort. 

Woooooo Hoooooooo!!!!

Lever for president. 
 

Tackling was insane, haven’t seen that many holding the balls since the vasectomy clinic. 
 

That Jetta BS was some [censored] BS. 

 

Langdon ?

Are Geelong now considered bad enough for people to continue saying "but the Demons haven't beaten anybody yet"?

We could be 22 and 0 we still won't have beaten anyone - all the teams have been teams below us on the ladder.

It's only an argument that defeatists and people who want to bring us down a peg make. It doesn't make any sense. Just ignore it.

Poor umpirng when they pay such bad free kicks that they have to repeat it later for balance.

Very trigger happy umps in the F50.

Sack them,demote them,get them out of the game .

on the bright side-Our best game in years..

The pressure applied was pure heat.

Good sign of maturity to put it to bed at the start of the last quarter. I’m still not used the team not folding when the heat is on!

Lever was huge today. With May out injured, he showed why we got him to the club and was the general out there today organizing the troops. His defensive positioning was perfect.

Good win that could have been a pasting. Thinking almost all the way through that Scott doubling down (again) on the old and slow strategy was a bad move. Suck that, Smith. 

Spirited work. More, please.

Great that the umpires are finally penalising the throwing in congestion, good to see.

Sorry Luther but you lost me there

 

Were shocking today on both sides of the ledger.

But the letting off the cats for incorrect disposal was atrocious.

The players did well not to let it demoralise them.

Agreed on Lever. A true leader.

4 or 5 years ago we would have panicked & gone into our shells & probably would have lost. 

But today we kept coming & managed to keep 2 or 3 goals in front. I also think Goodwin's calmness helps to.

Monday mornings don't seem to be as bad when you have to get up to start the working week after your team has a great win

You get weeks for causing a concussion with a bump. What do you get for an intentional or reckless swinging  arm to the head, which breaks a player’s eye socket?  Also what if the player has form for this type of incident?

My guess nothing to see here.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
