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.

Todays defeat at the hands of the young Hawks at our beloved MCG has once again highlighted the amount of passengers we carry on our list.

First off lets reinforce Danihers inability to coach. Why isn't White thrown forward in matches for longer than 5 minutes when the games over. And the selection committee have to blood new blokes instead of muppets like Godfrey, Wheatley and to a lesser extent Nathan Brown.

Cameron Bruce: Can show glimpses of quality but our Rolls Royce continues to get soft possessions out wide on the wing and needs to kick more goals and add toughness to his game.

Brad Green: how long will we carry Greeny. so promising in his early years but hasn't done much since been thrown in the midfield. goes quiet and can be very soft at times... No longer seems to have his deadly kick.

Travis Johnstone: so lazy, can show glimpses but needs to make it to more packs around the ground and get over been tagged. You are an easy target TJ because you have long hair and haven't put weight on since your first year... A girl could beat you up.

Matthew Whelan: Where's the form you showed a couple years back. you are our only answer for opposition forwards. LIFT

Robbo: you could take so many more marks if you didn't try and chest mark everything. Get the dukes out so the defender cant spoil you. And stop watching vision of Lloyd, you fall to ground far too much and allow the opposition to run in out too easy.

Neita: Put the bloke in the goal square and let him have his way with the defender. He wins one on ones as much as any forward going around. He will kisck 60-80 goals every year if fit and played right.

Flash Davey: You get frustrated way to easy and have to learn when your having a bad day, putting cheap shots on the opposition is not the answer. You can lift the team with one act of brilliants.

Daniel Bell: Did i once see you run second to Delidio in a GF sprint. You are quick... Back yourself to carry the ball and run run run.

Yze: Well done on dropping yourself. However kick the ball long like you use too. use your skills to the full. Stop dicking about.

Chris Johnson: You are soft. Need to learn that running along the boundary line where you spent most of your time today is the not the place to find the footy. I thought you were going to be our Gilbee and you have showed nothing.

Good efforts to Ward, Rivers and Carrol and Miller to a lesser degree, you continue to try hard but lack some help from senior members..

Batey had a downer today but can play, McLean is a star and a professional, Sylvia is the missing link in midfield if ever can play and Bartram is overrated...

Stop playing Wheatley and Brown. Let them play their last years of their contracts for Sandy.

Overall the Demons have too many passengers and are professional enough. Lets model ourselves on Sydney, they have a good list and an excellent coach and play as a team. We have a good list, crap coach and play like crap... we lack depth and when injuries occur to senior players out match committee continue to bring morons in to cover the void.

what happened to our tackling. Last year we were awesome or was that just another one year wonder?

Im a passionate Melbourne supporter but why to i keep buying my membership when the same signs are there every year. Whats the point of finishing 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th and getting booted out of the finals early. We might as well do a Hawthorn and be a submarine. Lets spend some time on the bottom and see if we can pick up some professional, tough footballers.

What do you guys think about the above statements. I'd love to hear from you.

I think likewise 'Nicho', & reading your comments made me think that the preparedness to accept this same stuff year in / year out must start with the board. They need to start swingin' the boot into a few rumps.

Mate I agree with you and my posts ask the same questions about firstly Daniher needs to go 10yrs & the mental tougness issue raises its ugly head. Our so called leaders go missing. Need to make tough decisons cause this current list will not win a flag!

I honestly think that this is the year of reckoning for more than just Danners at the club.......I really don't see a lot of light at the end of the tunnel this season.....and yes I know we are only two games in.

If we have a change in coach, I would expect some pretty critical assessment of where the list is at.......and with previous reputations not so critical to a new coach, non performing players will be moved on!

We don't need a clean out, and we have some real positives at the club at present, but we definitely need some fine tuning to certain areas!

hahah coming from our former full back!

I can honestly say i am not related to that nicho.

i would like the think he will enjoy the rest of his days. Recruiting ex hockey goalkeepers to play full back for the demons is and indication their are some serious morons in charge of our Demons.

    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
