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.

Does the club get the money for sales from the MCG shop? I hope so because that place was packed

Directly, no.

The MCG is controlled by the MCG Trust who have leased the MCG to the MCC.

Naturally the MCG Shop can only sell licensed products, in this case AFL products, so some of the money will come back indirectly via the AFL.

I think.

That's what I thought which is a shame. The ckub would've made a mint yesterday if they had merch to sell but I understand they're still waiting on most items to be restocked.

Yep if they had more premiership merch on sale, they would have sold out 3 times over.

The shop was packed and empty. 

I was impulse buying stuff I absolutely do not need.

Not sure if others have had the same problem but my Premiers hoodie arrived today and it's black, not navy as per the picture. 

Spoke to the club and they're aware of the issue. Apparently some of the jumper orders came back in a traditional navy, while others were in a darker 'ink blue' colour or something. Whatever it's called, it's not blue in any way, either close up or from a distance. It looks like an Essendon jumper. 

Will be swapping for something else.

Finally received order after placing it on 26th. What a disaster.

stubby holder - no bottom?!

the shipment didn’t have the youth cap ordered for my son in time for Christmas 

the premiers hat (grey one) is an horrible fit - it’s like some WW2 German Panzer gunner’s hat from a Spike Milligan novel. I had to check screen caps from Indiana Jones to check I wasn’t over egging things - nope. Gave that to my son so awaiting a black Premiers New Era one instead but alas no hats 

 

pretty poor experience with zero communication from the shop without prodding

Got my last order delivered that was the $2k framed jumper which the courier simply left on the front porch in plain sight while we were not home. Not impressed & lucky that some porch pirate didn't walk off with it. Had to get my son to send off an email as the certificate of authenticity inside the box was torn due to poor packing. They placed one of the corners of the frame hard up against it. Another certificate being sent out which l am happy about. The jumper does look pretty spectacular, though. As for the stubby holders, cheap & nasty idea not to put a bottom on them.

I just assumed that that was the colour it was meant to be. 

Did they mention whether it can be returned/exchanged for the real colour?

I've got nothing at all so far, I'm beginning to think they've forgotten me 😪

I highly suggest finding your original order confirmation email(s) and just reply to that politely inquiring about the status of your order. Two of my orders shipped within a day or two of doing just that and I don’t believe that it was a coincidence. 

I think the beanies were holding up my orders initially but they were already in stores for a week before I sent my emails.

They're happy to exchange but they won't necessarily have the navy in the correct size. They didn't for me. 

Apparently the same thing happened with some of the Mark Knight hoodies. The Mark Knight I've got is navy, but the wrong size, and when I asked about swapping it, she said they've only got it in the black in that size. Pretty annoying. 

Still waiting for the guernsey and the white New Balance t-shirt, and happy with the scarf and beanie, but otherwise underwhelmed by the premiership apparel, and will be happy to swap the 2 hoodies for some proper New Balance 2022 gear when it becomes available. 

The Mark Knight hoodie is pretty poor quality.

Yep, I found that out during a visit to the Demon Shop on Sunday at the Premiership Celebration. Had already ordered it via afl.com.au without the choice of hardcover 😡.

I ordered through the AFL site too. I would not have bought the softcover if I knew there was a hardcover.

I too am waiting for the white New Balance. I believe it is the final item I have that still hasn’t shipped.

    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
