  • 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.

When Brown was at Gold Coast Suns he punched a young team mate. Broke his jaw.

Having Mal Brown as his father is a wonderful pedigree.

Clearly a top bloke.

Our very own Steven May 😡

I'm going through the games we've played this season, only the ones we won, and you can see the improvement as the year goes on. I can't see the point in watching the games we lost, why disappoint myself.

When I finish i'll watch the GF again, rinse and repeat.

I’m with you. I’m still looking for a vid of the season on you tube doesn’t include our losses

I just read that ‘story’ about the supposed nightclub incident. Imagined that this was your job? ‘well I heard that someone said something over a balcony and then all hell broke loss (but nothing happened)’.

I’d be embarrassed if I was Campbell Brown. Surely you can do something else with your time. There’s a job shortage. Take advantage.

Tom Browne is kicking himself he didn't break the story

I have recently started reviewing the season for youtube and whilst the wins are obviously great, I'm actually kind of excited to rewatch the Adelaide loss and see Oliver's performance again. The pies game not so much but it's all about the journey to be Premiers. The improvement and challenges in each game are great and there are some lessons in the losses.

This story sounds like a plot from Home and Away. Complete trash.

 

This is the way males in high school engineer confrontation.

Distort or obfuscate a story, hope neither party tries to build bridges to the other, hope heresay can’t be distinguished from reality  and that the tension boils up  to the point where punches are thrown.

Puerile stuff from a puerile newspaper.

A friend of mine sent me this pic. It’s from a friend of hers and although I’ve never met him I know he’s got at least two awesome qualities: (1) he’s a rescue-dog person, and (2) he’s a Dees man.

This was taken during the GF ❤️💙

He may be a rescue dog person, but it doesn't look like he had rescued any Bulldogs at that stage.

Probably a hell of a lot more needing rescue now.

Sounds like an old fashioned standoff at the OK Corral.

This reminds me of the story of the old empty barn.   There was nothing in it.

Over half their GF team is OOC next year including some of their finest:

  • Zaine Cordy

  • Josh Dunkley
  • Tim English
  • Mitch Hannan
  • Jason Johannisen
  • Jackson Macrae
  • Alex Keath
  • Stefan Martin

Can they keep the best 6 or 7 happy... ?

Just as well they didn't win the premiership or they would have a bigger sal cap problem!!!

Thanks Loges but in full disclosure, It doesnt include the thirty times I watched the last ten minutes of the third.

That third quarter is classic "Tale of Two Cities" material.

I think like most I find it far more satisfying than the last quarter

I know I should wash out my mouth, but I'm pretty much 'over' watching replays of the match.

I agree..............but i'm not tired of the second half against the Cats in Rd 23. The last passage of play starting with the the ridiculous insufficient intent call against Brayshaw and finishing with the mark and after the siren goal from Maxy WILL NEVER GET OLD

Most of our third quarters have been very good. The one thing that stood out early this season was us never giving up.

Reckon someone like Dale might get a silly club to throw some very good coin at him.

I'm not. In a post match interview a day or so later one of the older players relatively  (may have been salem but i can't recall exactly) noted the team discussions had turned to looking forward together to the 10 year reunion.

He said the weird thing was that jackson and pickett would still be playing then for the dees.

    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,

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    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
