  • 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.

Taylor Adams tests positive.

With De Goey suspended the Eagles might beat the Pies this weekend.

An interesting insight:  McRae also revealed that only five of his players have yet to contract the virus.

Tips from AFL folk:

Port Adelaide 2-10 Melbourne
Geelong 6-6 Brisbane
Sydney 12-0 North Melbourne
Collingwood 12-0 West Coast
Richmond 0-12 Western Bulldogs
Fremantle 9-3 Greater Western Sydney
Essendon 12-0 Adelaide
Hawthorn 4-8 St Kilda
Gold Coast 0-12 Carlton

Surprised at the lack of confidence in Richmond, Adelaide and to some extent GWS, and Hawks.

The result I wish for the most is for Lions to beat the little cats on their own turf.

Tipsters always play it safe. Generally base their tips on how a team performed the previous round.

Somehow we need the crows to beat essendon, because that would give me a laugh. The fans would go nuts. Walker back helps. 

Interesting Geelong are resting Selwood tomorrow night against Brisbane. I would have thought you are coming up against a pretty good midfield and would need your best. 

I know I put it in another thread but why do we have to travel again when some of these teams don't have there first interstate game until round 9 or longer?

Selwood is now a way from being their best.  They got him to the record # of games as an AFL captain last week so now he gets a rest.  He is their spiritual leader but not sure they will miss him.  Its been a while since he has put in a really good game, let alone a match winning one.

Scott learnt his lesson last year that his old team will run out of legs.  He is in preservation mode for finals.

Agreed.  I am tipping Giants, Freo are up and down.  Tigers absolutely have a good chance

and with Carlton limping over the line against the Hawks, GC have a good chance at home

If you add up the AFL and The Age Tipsters only 1 of 22 are backing Gold Coast.

Surprised me a little given how they played at home against us.

Who ya got this week?

FPtlD7IVgAIoM-x?format=jpg&name=4096x409

Geelong but is Brisbane are serious they should win 

If Sydney don’t win by over 10 goals I’m calling it a loss 

West Coast are rooted. Pies by plenty. 

Dogs but it’s a 50/50 at the G

Who knows. Two teams you never put money on  

Bombers finally 

Saints? Could go either way but MCG helps Hawks  

I hope GC! Time for Carlton to lose

3 interstate games out of the first 5.

What did we do wrong

Have I missed something? Next week's game is at the G right? We've only travelled twice to date.

Bumping for tonight. Isn’t it nice being able to enjoy the whole weekend of footy basking in a Thursday night victory. 

Also do we want to the Cats to win t to claim top spot or Lions to win just so Geelong lose?

Geelong to lose hopefully!

better than the end of the year...

I don't know if you've looked at our fixture for the end of the year, but our last 8 games include trips to Adelaide, Geelong, Alice Springs, Optus Stadium in Perth and the Gabba. 

It will be a fair test.

Was that another one of the games we didn't get out of first gear ? 🙂

People have laughed at us for years, came across this and found it amusing. Would love the Crows to beat Essendon  just to see the next instalment.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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,
