  • 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.

For selfish reasons, I only hope it doesn't have to be consecutive years!

I've clocked about 15 years overall, including some of the very worst years, but have a gap because a bunch of those things that happen, happened.

Personally, I think being a continuous member from 2007-2017 should also count for additional rewards. Like, a sympathetic hug from a player or a free 20-minute session in a sound proof padded room.

But, seriously, I think anything that recognises the deep durability of some members is a good idea.

Did anyone receive the email a bajillion times or was that just me?

I got a separate email for each member of the family even though we manage them all together. Is it possibly that?

And yeah, more off field goals for the club with this, really nailing it.

Yeah I got maybe 6.

Entered every one of them in a desperate and greedy grab at the free stuff.

Haha, I'm with you LG. Membership years between 2007 and 2017 should be like dog years

This morning I got an SMS from the club saying the email address on my membership account is invalid, and to reply with an up to date email.

But last night I received the team selection email and also the AFLW finals one twice.

Just to be sure, I logged on to my MFC Membership account and the email appears to be correct.

Not sure if there are issues from the club's end with this.

We are 30+ year members (Mr and Mrs) and have not yet received an email but know that it will come.

Rather than an afternoon tea with other old fuddie duddie members, we would prefer to attend a couple of training sessions where we could meet and talk casually and informally to the players like when they held open training sessions in mid season. I recall one at Prahran and another in East Malvern.

Preferable to a phone call or an online video call that puts unnecessary pressure on the players and coaches. They were fun and the kids (grandkids) could run around and meet the players. Jack Watts was a favourite.

In any event, success is it's own reward for long term supporters like us and, personally, we want and need no more.

A lot of duplicate emails for some, but none for me :-(

(18 years consecutive)

I think for some/many of those years, certain years should be converted to 5. Or 10 more years (hello, Neeld 'era') because it certainly felt like 10 at times. It took some herculean type efforts to not obliterate the membership at times.

    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

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
