  • 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.

Kozzie and Dogga are the personalities that would step up and relish a finals atmosphere.

And Oliver to pick up from last week.

For sure.

I haven't mentioned another under the radar player, Bowey. Finals after, what, 4-5 games. What a story, reliability, efficiency, selfless, supportive. Keep that cool head, give us an out and hit up those mids. Would love him to get a goal. 

Go Dees!

To the lucky demon fans living in SA who can go tonight, you are representing every fellow demon fan who cannot be there tonight. Just make more noise than the lion fans & when the boys run out tonight let them know the support is there. Have fun & lets hope we all see a victory

I have to admit that this game is more nerve-racking than the elimination final against Geelong in 2018. Before the elimination final against Geelong I didn't feel particularly nervous about what would happen because I was satisfied that we were able to make the finals in the first place. But today I feel extremely nervous because we finished on top of the ladder and my expectations are really high.

I'm not nervous yet. Maybe because we haven't been able to go to the games I feel a bit disconnected if that makes sense.

I think I'm more excited because for once we are the team to best & haven't just fallen into finals action. Maybe this will be our best chance yet.

Brisbane have bought in 2 very good ins but at least Hipwood isn't there. We just have to get off to a good start & not let them jump us.

With Harris Andrews, normally has a reasonable height advantage against most forwards, hopefully won't get that tonight with BB. Hope he can at least halve most contests.

If the rain comes as predicted at half time, I hope we are well up. Harder to score in the wet. 

Will suit us. Lions are a fast high scoring team.

Rain and we will grind them down with our surge footy.

My left knee is tingling..

Ive got a feeling Trac is going to rip lions apart Dusty style.

 

I hope so. He has become a sidekick to Oliver over the past 12 weeks. Time to just reassert your dominance my man.

I don't think there's any egos left in our side. Sometimes I wish Trac and sometimes Kozzy would be more selfish because they are such rare talents but they are playing a selfless game all of them, and that's obviously what it takes to finish on top...

 

Hopefully it's enough to go all the way?

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

    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
