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 reckon they're getting their money's worth out of the club website 'All of the Melbourne Goals' segment this year!!!

(They're also getting their money's worth out of my current renovations, too!)

The paint on the laundry ceiling of my apartment is already peeling off in large flakes despite allegedly having been redone before we moved in. Clearly an inferior brand of non-Melbourne-sponsoring paint. You'd never get such failure from our esteemed friends at Haymes Paint!

Only one small outlet in my part of the world (Canberra), but I make the effort to buy Haymes whenever I need paint.  Excellent product and worth the effort ....... and thanks Haymes for being long-term sponsors of our Club!

I'd buy Haymes but in NNSW it's hard to get and certainly impossible with the member discounts.

Never heard of them and never noticed their logo at any of our games. Their marketing team needs to lift.

Pretty sure they sponsor all the quarter time/half time activities the Robbo hosts like kicking the footy into the giant paint tin or whatever else they do. They used to do the speckies until some guy almost necked himself

Bump, this is what I wrote in another thread and no I don't have any other connection with the company.

Great Sponsor, great product. Get behind a Victorian company.

I've been sprucing up the property recently and the double discount has been saving me a lot of dollars. Sign up for a Haymes discount card and then show your MFC members card.

Yes I live in Ballarat but seriously the product they produce is awesome and at a seriously competitive price.

For full effect, they should rebrand as Harmes Paint 

Or he could change his listed name for a week to James Haymes! ?

Being in the business of specifying paint brands/colours, Haymes stands out for coverage and colour saturation. Great product and loyal sponsor. 

Might have to make use of that coverage and saturation to paint my boys bedroom in navy blue with red V's.  My laundry needs a paint too, so might give that the same treatment.

Heck, if we win a premiership, I'll paint the whole of [censored] Brisbane red and blue in quality Haymes paint.  Making me think that Haymes should officially mix up and brand a MFC paint range of red and blue paints (they can forget about the white used in those pox clash strips consigned to the garbage).

Workman doing renovation at my house use Haymes Paint. They said it's the best quality.

I personally have used their Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau on the outside deck. Comes up a treat and lasts much longer with more "lustre"than Cabots or British paints that I have used before.

What a coincidence.

I directed my on call work crew to strip the Cabots they just put on my deck at my chalet at Thredbo and replace with the Woodcare "Dexpress" Merbau.

Then asked them to do the same for my little shack at Wye River.

    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
