  • 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.

That is soooooo good.

Wish I'd thought of it.

As for the WEG poster, I love it. It's classic and evokes the posters of the '50s and '60s whereas Mark Knight's effort is some sort of weird horror movie scene. Of course I have both.

Although I felt dirty going there, I headed to the Blues shop with a mate when we were down for round 1 and then we headed to the Dee’s shop after.

The difference in the options the blues have versus the Dee’s is light years apart.  The amount of t-shirts, jumpers, jackets, shorts Carlton have is unbelievable.  Even my mate mentioned that weren’t many options for the Dee’s supporters.

is there a reason behind this? I spoke to the Demons shop before Easter asking when new gear was coming in (no sizes) and they said it’s hard getting answers out of New Balance.  Is it NB who are providing limited options?

That new indigenous guernsey is definitely face palm worthy.  The lower half looks like a homage to West Coast via Collingwood while to top half looks like a clown’s face.  It’s far far far too busy. It’s an abomination I tells ya!

Some of the past jumpers have looked quite good.  Hopefully it looks much better on.  The symbols on their own are good, just too busy.

For a minute I thought it was an add for Moomba.

This is part of a dees jumper with 11 of the 1964 team autographs. 

I would like some help deciphering those between Graeme Jacobs 20, and Hassa 29.  I think the first below Jacobs is Tassie Johnson, then John Lord but am at a complete loss as to the next.

Any help would be appreciated.

Edit:  autographs were obtained at the 2014, 50th anniversary player reunion.

I can help explain the 17410 the Ron Barassi signs under his name, if that would help..? i.e. 17-4 (for)-10 what a champ!!

Thanks, I was aware of that.  He seemed very proud of it!

I'm hoping someone has old footy cards with autographs on them.

4 is his shorthand for won 'four'.

You might want to check his web site.

Ron wore 31, a number he made famous, in honour of his father. The number 17410 signifies “17 Grand Finals for 10 Premierships” during his career at four different clubs.

By amazing coincidence, 17+4+10 equals 31.

    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

    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
