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.

The AFL are [censored] id iots. This game should have been moved to Marvel for this afternoon during the week instead of Metricon. Gold Coast play Carlton next week in Melbourne so it made sense that

Geez, I'm stoked. Just landed at Coolangatta Airport and some nice bloke sold me his 5 tickets to today's game for my entire family and even gave me a 10% discount.

I’m nervous

Poor form, fly in fly out, the Suns showing some ticker recently. It will not be easy

But if we kick 12 goals i think we’ll win. Step forward BB

And I hope as many of our Queensland based brethren as possible can get along to the game to support the boys, and fingers crossed enjoy a Win

Big game in the context of our season. The sun's list is full of talent and will certainly take it up to us. Can easily see this game being close for 3 qtrs until we break away to win by 4 goals in the last.

This will say a lot.

The cards are being stacked against us for sure, but good teams overcome adversity. 

I’d say 2 out of 4 wins will see us in the top 4. Let’s make a start on that equation today.

Demons by 8 points.

Going to be a slog. The travel up on game day is one factor. Remember Maxy Gawn on an RSN interview said he personally struggled with this.

Huge must win game.

Is it going to be clear? When was the last time we played on a nice clear day and let our skills shine? (Pardon the pun)

The better side wins today, r points and move on. Let's start building towards a finals campaign. Gawn full time ruck, Trac and Clarry I'm the middle, Gus back tia wing, pork ribs on the smoker... Back to normal you know?

Oh to be able to kick 18.4 like the  Blues did last night! That’d be awesome. Provided the Suns kick 18.3 or less, that is. 
Them kicking 3.18 would be even better!

Forgot to wish ill on the Suns.

If Carlton can kick 18 what does that tell you?

Managed to snag one of the few tables at The Rose to watch this one. Don’t know how they’re going to accommodate so many overlapping games to be honest. Like everyone else I have no idea which version of Melbourne  will show up today but I’d feel sick to my stomach if we throw away another opportunity.

A magnificent morning on the Gold Coast. Bone dry and not a cloud in the sky.  Very suitable for tall, marking forwards and very quick smalls to impact the scoreboard.

I think we would need to win 3 to finish top 4. Win 2 and I have us finishing 5th or even 6th

    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
