  • 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.

Lucky there aren’t limits on the face palm emoji - gave out a lot in this thread. 
Very happy that we haven’t ultimately been treated differently to others. 
The systems broke but I don’t trust AFL house to fix it.

One of the rare people with good taste who can't stand Whateley too. Very nice.

I reckon. It's amazing that GW makes comments on the physical side of the game when he never played and even now would not get a game in the under 12's and just follows up on the so called footy writer for the HS view. Not sure if Robbo played but he also would not know what physical stuff is as he would have been under the weather on the Saturday from Friday nights sessions. Both absolute useless and never bothered to mention their boyfriends incident in the GF last year which was worse than Fritta's and got off.

Mother of god, now I’m seeing this post in other threads, too. I’m so curious. Why “Good” for seemingly no reason?

And while the tribunal are at it, they can reverse the three week Jack Trengove suspension for a sling tackle!

A classic sliding doors moment...?  Jack Trengrove's promising footy career went into a downwards spiral, whilst Patrick Dangerfield began the ascent to AFL stardom.

Good grief!

Just watched the AFL 360 rant. Putting my bias aside, those two are out and out drama queens. 
Robinson is a moron and Whateley is on the fast road to a similar moronic level of commentary. 

 

Passive aggressive wankers.

My daughter just showed me some of the reactions on the socials.

” I reckon if he had a Geelong kit on he’d get weeks for that “ is one . ?

 

Yeah, like the same weeks Hawkins got rubbed out for breaking an eye socket.

I can't imagine the equivalent "I reckon if he had a Melbourne kit on he’d get weeks for that" would ever feature on this forum though ???

Luck looks like it's on the demons side in 2021

 

Fritsch free to play, on the same day Petracca signs for 7 years. 

"Good things come in threes"       I will take a win over Syd as the 3rd "good thing"

I think the right decision was made on the basis of precedent. It would have unfair that Bayley copped a ban while Danger and Cunnington didn’t so definitely justice served in that sense.

I don’t think raising your elbow, connecting with an opponents head and leaving them dazed is a good look. I think these incidences warrant a one game ban. I mean, we all thought (or most anyways) Hawkins should have been suspended for breaking May’s eye socket. 

The process is not working and needs to be reviewed. Too many incorrect interpretations and inconsistent decisions.

Love the fact it looks like butter wouldn't melt in Frittas mouth but he has the mean streak to dish out an elbow fend Dippa would have been proud of.

He has a bit of mongrel young Fritta. Those from Coldstream/Yarra Valley way will tell you the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
