  • 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.

Anyone going to the game on Thursday?

Premier Marshmallow eased the rules for travelling Victorians today meaning we can actually head over to Adelaide without isolating or getting tested, and attending the ground. 

I was but I dont trust the premiers at the moment

I wouldn’t leave Vic for fear of not being able to return. With covid things can change in a heartbeat.

The tickets are handled by Ticketek, I see they have released tickets for the MCG this weekend. I gather the delay is due to the exact capacity of Adelaide Oval, 50%,100%.

Hoping to, does anyone know the time frame on ticket releases?

Need to act quickly Look up Adelaide papers Power website and the Ticketek or Ticketmaster whichever it may be. 
our membership Dept ring as well.

BTW our membership is up to 51, 924 and have about 500 to go to break our all time record. Wins vs Port Hawks and Suns should be a Monty to get there. !

You sure know how to kill any positivity OD. You are back to your Old Dee approach with no Hope and only fear. 
Maybe have a rest criticising and being negative and look for the positives.

Oh sorry you never make positive comments you always refer to the past and don't give any credit even when we play well.

Don't even go letting Covid  ( like 15,000 other Demons fans ) determine their decision making. 

Leopards don't change their spots.

Time us running out for  us oldies who can choose to sit and watch the world go by or join in and embrace what we are still able to do. 

Even Dan is in the recovery plan bandwagon team ( leading it in fact) and plenty of vaccine has been available to us all since its release earlier this year.

It’s time for changes at player level. The team over the last month looks tired. Tired players make a greater level of mistakes e.g. goal kicking. Add to this a five daybreak.  Team needs four changes at minimum to freshen the team, but they probably won’t so I struggle to see us beating  Port. Do you have any thoughts besides bagging me?

Yes OD but at least your post is a credible point. 
I have posted on other topics we need to be more positive in our approach take the game on more and give BBB a go at FG and perhaps get Lockhart in defence to get some running going.

All our mids and defenders are to take the game on when we get the ball like vs Lions in second half.. 

Msybe a couple of players are tired but I think  most of that is in the mind.

Our best is easily good enough to best Port if we bring it.

Our best has been missing for a month. Time for some player changes.

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
