  • 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.

Looks great. Seems to have a few triggered on the socials which is a bonus.

My feeling is that your comment will be a foreboding of events to come in this thread....

I know people get a bit antsy about the Afl and causes for want of a better word.

However this and mental health are definitely worth rallying around. And so often these two things are sadly connected.The suicide rate in Oz is becoming a national tragedy. 

Reach out anyone, I beg you if you are struggling.

I like it. Blends naturally with our traditional colors...as opposed to this shocker from the doggies

That looks like the bodysuits they were wearing in Tron! They just need one of those goofy bike helmets to add to it.

I love, love, love it. I would buy it for my daughter and myself for us to wear to most games - AFLW and mens. Does anyone know if we're selling it? Can't see anything in the Demons shop. And hopefully we make it in mens size.

I've seen a few people asking on socials, so hopefully someone will be able to answer.

Definitely one of the nicer guernseys I've seen for this round. Carlton had a shocker the other year that looked some rainbow coloured sick running out from the bottom right hand corner of their CFC logo.

Gotta love the number 14 Lily Mithen.  She’s a dynamo both on field as she plays with great intensity but also her fun vibrant fast thinking personality off field.  Daisy. Lily. Libby. Such great teammates and leaders for this Dees team. 

Totally agree  NS and think that the Pride guernsey is fantastic in design and colour. Also in its meaning.

Magnificent and totally blows the Pies token effort to bits.

It's a ripper, isn't it! (would have been even nicer if the colour transitioning in the numbers had matched the subtlety of the yoke's).

Men's shape, too, Allus? I think the women's guernsey has a gathered(?) waist and flare(?) over the hips? (not such a prob, though, if you'll be wearing it Zanker-style!😉

I noticed, in the club site vid about the guernsey, that the girls, and Stinear, were at pains to tell it is for diversity of all sorts, not just in sexuality and gender (indeed, the lack of reference to LGBTQI+ - save for the appreciation of the Ruby Demons - was noticeable). I'm not well versed in these things: does the rainbow's embrace extend beyond those letters (and their '+')?

Just saw that the Pies have theirs on sale so checked if happening for ours too - unfortunately, doesn't look like it.

There's are tshirts available at Cotton On though, not nearly as nice!

Would you seriously consider the Pies jumper in the same category as Ours?

Very underwhelming on the front makes a joke of  the Effort IMO.

I didn’t really consider it given it’s a Pies jumper. Always looks ugly to me! But at least they’re selling them…

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    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,
