  • 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.

the block on dunkley before trac's dribbler would've earned him a premiership medallion if it was the ONLY team thing he did - instead he had 23 pressure acts, and was 'on' right from the start when he stopped footscray getting low pressure exits from d50 due to his constant harassment 

how many second year key forwards have kicked the amount of goals he has and put the sort of pressure on that he's able to exert on a continual basis?

what a draft 2019 was!

He’s done this from day one, hits a body every single time he’s near one, I noticed it early and kept watch ever since. I always expect him to give a way a free as some have been a tad late, but as far as I can remember never has. 
Ultimate team player, great awareness, hard position to play but is always involved even if the stats don’t show it. 
He is a ripper.

Good shepherd, but Dunkley was playing for the free with his tumble.

Might've been Dunkley's bad shoulder but I reckon Koz has actually moved him sideways a lot. Like uncle Byron he has the sweet sweet timing. You can see he gets it spot on. Dunkley might've gone down more out of shock than looking for the free.

Uncle Byron says it all really…

Agreed, not a great game but just   little things for TMac and Kozzie, both were involved in this one. Tmac gets the hand on it that deflects it to Petracca when otherwise Duryea would have spoiled it out and then the Kozzie shepherd was gold.

KK had a fairly quiet game by his standards BUT his shepherd, allowing Tracc to kick his 2nd. 
i have only just noticed what he did. 
incredible

Grand Final moment 

That was the goal that broke the Dog

Watch it again. Kozzie opened the door

The more you watch the replays the more you realise his "quiet" game was actually a very good, team oriented game. Evey single player did some hard yards and all are deserving :)

Yes, Sparrow gets that goal, because Tom pushed the Dogs player back through the goals, allowing the ball to clear the goal line.

You don't win GF's without selfless acts.

Yep, I was going to bring that up too. TMac and Cordy (I think) were locked hand on shoulder pushing each other. By the time the ball arrived, Tom had just about pushed him to the fence. Great display of strength.

Tmac also involved early in this sequence too. Salem kicks out of defence to a Gawn/Keath contest and the ball goes over them both and Tmac is there for an easy mark. He then kicks it to Brown who can't quite grab it but gets the free for HTB with ~70 seconds left - Brown bombs it in and then the rest is history.

That’s one of those acts known as contributing without the football.

Spot on. Fantastic on-body work on his opponent to allow that Sparrow goal to get over the line. It was brilliant. Noticed by Hodge on the commentary. (Don't get me started on Sparrow - did some great things. Big big future.)

    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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

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

    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
