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.

I just had a look at the Norf's big footy page to see what they had to say about BBB. 

While there was some to and fro about him, what infuriated and disgusted me were some vile and disgusting posts about Daisy Pearce by a couple of absolute pigswill and moronic posters.

It stems (they claim) from a comment Daisy made about BBB leaving Norf for Melbourne.

I have now moved Norf  to the top of my most hated oppo supporters list and fervently hope that their ****ty club remains cellar dwellers until they are disbanded.

It was nice to read the positive comments of our win. Especially about Pettracca being the most worthy Norm Smith medalist ever and we are the best team of the season. Poor Tom English coped a fair bit of heat though. 

It is one of the best GF performances of all time. I think it beats any of the 3 that Dusty won. 
 

The debate about Oliver or Trac being the best in the comp will go on. Heck I change my mind every week. And to think we have both of them in our team!

This was my favourite from the BF forum:

Since Gary Rohan kicked a goal to put Geelong 44 points up in round 23, Melbourne has scored 409 to 171, a percentage of 239.2

To have that dominance in the last 4 games, including finals, against the top 4 teams..we were truly a class above.

Another good read over on BF re our 16.4.100 to 1.1.7 run...

Bit inaccurate. It should read '4 of their last 4 matches'. Our second quarter against the Lions was akin to our last quarter against Cats in Round 23, 3rd quarter against Geelong and last 28 mins yesterday, we just didn't capitalise and kick straight. We should have been up by 10 goals at half time in that game!

Dogs are a great football club with a long history of scrapping and giving their fans something to be proud of. Was unusual for them to go out like they did last night...hard to say how much of it was the toll of the last month of travel and how much was just an over powering by our mids.

I generally think the MFC have handled themselves pretty well in showing some class and humity in winning. Hopefully it continues club wide (including supporters).

I thought the doggies blog site was more balanced than ours would have been should the shoe have been on the other foot.

My favourite observation was "How will teams counter Melbourne? They are like a freight train that runs you over."

'Enjoy this now mate' 

- text message I received from a quality human (and mad doggies fan) early in the 4th qtr

I got a similar one early in the last quarter from another gentleman and good friend Doggies long term member  

”All over. Well played and well done to the Dees.  Enjoy the celebrations. Worthy premiers”

What do you expect from a club that created the ‘Boris the Chicken’ videos?

That was an excellent read, never seen any of their work before. 
Some comments about Max were very interesting.

I may have double-standards (at least I have some) in that I'd rip into Cats, Hawks, Pies & Bombers supporters. However would not want to ridicule/humiliate Bulldogs supporters.

And for clarification - Roger the Demon Dog was a pre-game omen, not post-game ridicule.

Just read 30 pages from 100. Was great to read and see various teams supporters point of view. 
Hope someone has the time to turn it into a podcast/talking book. Would love to drive into work hearing the comments.

Gees that Bigfooty thread was a beauty, apart from the [censored] Collingwood poster posting 1000+ whinges about it being a blowout.

The Dogs supporters were great and the neutrals were 90%+ for us.

Brilliant read.

Best thing I read was from a Hawks supporter H2F who posted this. Looks like our dreams have come true.

"Petracca and Oliver are like nothing I’ve seen. It’s like having Buckley and Voss together or Danger and Dusty. Amazing."

Agreed.,i have a friend who’s hard core doggies and his graciousness in defeat  has been amazing. Reckon they’ve suffered too much in the same kinda ways we have  to hate.

Very true.  One of my Dogs-supporting co-workers brought me a Melbourne-themed cupcake at work today.  One of my mates was very insistent that they got the worst of the umpiring, but concedes that we were just way too good and controlled the game.  The consensus is pretty much that we deserved the win and no hard feelings.

I was lucky enough to watch the game with a sizeable crowd at the star garden bar. 

I had an absolute [censored] of a Doggies supporter get in my face as he walked off to go get a beer after bont just snapped his third putting them 19 up.

The little [censored] walked back about 10 mins later as clarry just put us 24 up. I just gave him a little smirk and winked at him, he clearly hadn't seen the scores yet and didn't know his team had completely [censored] the bed.

He was so weak every time he walked passed our table for the rest of the night he pretended to be on a phone call 😄

    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
