  • 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.

It sounds good but if you can only get a photo holding it wearing a mask, I’d rather not bother 

Hopefully by then no masks outdoors

The queue of 40k plus might be issue

any charge ( for anything) , hope half goes to reach

Honestly, do you think when you look back at this moment in the future you’ll think ‘it’s such a shame no one can see the bottom 3rd of my face. That’s the real story here’?

Enjoy it for what it is. It’s a Premiership cup, with our name on it!

Hells, I’d happily wear full PPE complete with gas mask if it meant getting anywhere near the PREMIERSHIP CUP. You know, the one that says WON BY MELBOURNE. 😉

Actually yes I do. I don’t want to look back on it and be reminded of COVID. My face covered, I may as well not even be in the photo.

I’ll wait for the next one

I seriously doubt that you will be able to have a photo with the Premiership Cup at this event anyway. Can you imagine the line for that? With 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50,000 plus people there (or whatever the cap is) there is simply no way that is logistically possible.

Just crossed my mind that by then it might even be realistic for me to make the trip down. Visit family (not one of whom I've seen in six months), visit friends (almost as sparse), do birthday stuff, and go nuts at the 'G.

Should we be planning a Demonland rally point? Should someone bring a banner?

Again it’s my personal choice. I do not want to be reminded of COVID and really this is a time I’d much want to put behind me and forget. Maybe I’m too vain, but a photo of my completely covered up may as well be a photo of someone else. I do not like wearing a mask and hate the way I look when I am wearing one. Every time I’m asked to take a photo, I always take it off. I wear it to help out and because it’s law, but it’s a thing I don’t like. I do not want my one chance ruined by having a photo of me where I hate the way I look like in it. Like I say if that’s the cost I’d rather not have the photo. I’m grateful for the premiership, but as for a photo with the cup having me in a mask is akin to having a stand-in be taken with it. It’s my personal choice

Maybe think of it this way, Cassie: a pic with the Cup isn’t as important as a pic with the Cup in your memory. (If you know what I mean.) 🙂

well if you go and get a chance for a photo with the cup.....

then just before camera clicks, whip off mask, camera clicks, put mask back on

i'm sure no-one will arrest or shoot you for a 3 second de-masking

But that is the topic. Us seeing the cup. IF there is a photo opportunity it won’t be worthwhile with a mask

Oh Daisy… I bet you were that kid at school who’d encourage another kid to wait ‘til the teacher is almost sitting before pulling the chair away.

I'm pretty sure once the beer starts to flow the mask compliance will start to slip. Pardon the pun

    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.
