  • 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 know where the best place is to get frames for these posters? What size frame do you need?

I've got the weg posters from 1900 through to 1948 which have been sitting in storage waiting until I can put them up with pride now need to get the 55-64 ones to complete the collection and want to frame them all up on the wall in my study. I bought the block mounted Knight poster but want to frame the rest.

Approx 60cm x 45cm mate.

I ordered a pre-framed poster from walltowall.net.au and that’s the size they’ve listed.

Has anyone received the link to the Premium Edition poster yet? Curious to see if it's been sent out (and hence if I've missed out 😕)...

Just got my email (just after 4pm). Did you get one in the end?

My WEG one looks wonderful. I briefly unraveled it, had a look and put it back in. I’m paranoid I’ll get a rip on it. I just can’t wait to get it framed. Hopefully somewhere accessible like K-Mart have the right size frames.

The Mark Knight one is really nice too. I like the colour and frankly, it was much better than I expected (after seeing his ones for the cats and magpies.) I hope he keeps up the good work if we get another one. Only thing I didn’t like was the 1964 tattoo and the “Norm Smith curse” (which I don’t subscribe to) comment. But apart from that, it’s a really great poster that I show with pride on my wall. He’s no WEG, but I think the grand final poster art is in good hands.

Fabulous. Thanks for the heads up Cass!

Sorry but after getting my one, I stand corrected. It most definitely does have that watermark on it.

Hi Cassie. Yeah, I saw that when it arrived a couple of weeks ago. To be honest I'm not as blown away with the poster as I was initially and it's still sitting in the tube it came in. I'll sure I'll end up getting it framed though at some point and place it in a prominent place in the house.

I ordered two of the HUN posters ($4 job... I'm cheap) almost immediately after we won the premiership... they are yet to arrive.

I ordered them through the Good Friday appeal, not the club so it may be different. Nothing from the club has arrived of yet

Mine were ordered directly from the HUN shop via the Good Friday Appeal link. I sent a message to them two days ago, but no response to that either.

Did you keep a copy of your order? I have the shop app that allows you to track it down. Would you like its link?

UPDATE: My hoodie and Premiers t-shirt arrived today

I’m glad(?) to see I’m not alone with the tardy merchandise. Though as I am OS, I did get a DHS update to say my goods have been shipped so I guess that’s something.

In comparison, I also ordered a new Liverpool scarf direct from their UK provider, and that will arrive tomorrow; one week after it was ordered.

Take that for what you will.

I can’t find the link to it but the 1988 was sensational. It was by far the best poster he did for us.

Now that he’s selling them and if by some chance we do lose, is he going to reuse it again if we make another one?

I found a very tiny image of the 1988 Melbourne losing VFL Grand Final poster.

Here is the link on Big Footy with all the losing Grand Final posters:losingweg-png.150229

I have looked everywhere on the Internet for a larger version of the 1988 one. However, if someone could find a larger version of the image it would be greatly appreciated.

Gotta love how many of these are for the Pies. 😁

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
