  • 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.

Here's my favorite's from their changes thread lol

  • who gives a sh*t.
  • Can no we also get rid of that big fat bloke in charge of recruiting? Number 1 he’s crap. Number 2 fat = lazy, it sets a bad culture
  • Out: Adam Simpson, Midfield.
    In: Inanimate Carbon Rod, Witches hats.
  • Seriously, who cares? The players don’t so why should we.
    We are lost.
  • Out: Darling, OA, Gaff, Sheed
    In: Blue Wiggle, Baby giraffe, Dicky Knee, inanimate carbon rod.
  • I look forward to another 3 x possession Vardy special, again. To add to his overflowing 3 possession trophy cabinet.
  • Out - me
  • I wish Simmo was my weed dealer when I was broke in high school - the amount of tic I could have built up...
  • I can only imagine the gigantic erection Gary Lyon gets every time he thinks about the demolition job the Dees are going to perform on us.
    Surely they have him on the comms somewhere to really stick it to us. Jordy Lewis too, I'm sure he'll enjoy it after starting the rot in the '18 prelim.
  • Out me.
    In cleaning gutters, weeding garden, washing car, sex with wife on footy day.
  • Seriously who the f**k cares anymore
    The players don't so why the f**k should we ??
  • Only change I want to see is west play a full four in the midfield.
    Pathetic campaigners again showing their lack of body work and intent
  • No change, they all absolutely deserve the punsihment in front of a crowd.
    There can be no hiding.
  • It's going to be a massacre next week, Dees are towelling up the Suns as we speak. Honestly time to just put Edwards, Trew and Johnson in as well give kids a crack see if they show something at AFL level.
  • This no second Ruckman business is such a massive problem for us and I don't think the club has realised that until now. Seeing Gawn and Jackson tear it up for Melbourne today gives me the chills thinking about next week

 

I hope the players are as despondent as their supporters.

Back on their own dung heap they will be a much tougher opponent

If we are not 100% on from the beginning it could be a disappointing result

Odds for them at $3 look like overs to me

The Eagles are the ultimate home town heroes.

It will take our absolute best to win this game.

I’m worried. They are under immense pressure to perform and they’ll want to put a better performance in front of their home crowd for fear of copping the booing.

If we are a serious top 4 side we should account for them easily. They are not even a top 8 side but then again we got done by the crows and the filth so toss your coins in the air.

Thinking about the Eagles copping the full brunt of an Optus Stadium booing should be extra motivation for our boys to do a proper job on them.  Would be a real highlight of our season if we could make that happen.

In the early nineties I recorded a match between Eagles and Dees in Perth.

I was surprised to see a woman in the front row breast feeding an infant. Talk about mother’s milk.

They’re serious about their football.

I saw that. Pretty sure it wasnt was an infant?

Adding the ‘Ph’ to Fat and the dollar sign to Scully makes him sound less like a recruiter and more like a gangster rapper! ?

They are cooked. Good teams smack them - average make them seem a threat - crap teams are their points. 
 

Loathe the supporters, I will be going nuts and most likely drunk with a fair chance of a sickie Tuesday.

i get the sentiment as they’re below us and coming off a bad loss. but since when is playing the Eagles in Perth a “ danger game”?  they lift in front of their crowd and the eagles this season, at their best at home, can match it and more  w anyone. coming off such a publicised crappy loss i’m thinking a win fr us will be a big achievement. i’d more label this game  a big ladder shaping contest , critical fr both sides and on a par with the geelong game round 23. 

They lost to North at home a few weeks ago and Essendon a month or so before that. Geelong and Swans both absolutely belted them this year. Not to mention Collingwood last week. We generally play well in Perth in recent years besides the 2018 PF. I'll be pretty surprised and very annoyed if we drop this one.

Think we won 10 between 38 and 64 or similar

Back when there was 6-8 teams and you could (in the early early days) have the right to challenge a GF winner to a rematch if you lost as the reigning premiere.

There was also a little thing called WW2 in the midst of that!

Same here. I actually met a bloke on a contiki tour 6 years back who is first cousins with one of the 2018 GF players.

He is actually incredibly level headed and gets good mail! He said that in the 2018 prelim, we looked scared and that certain members of our midfield wouldn't shut up and kept chirping the entire time.

    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

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
