  • 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.

Same as last year

Love your positivity BFP!

Circumstances are a little different as our injury list is longer than this time last year. However all it takes is a little momentum within a game, confidence will come and we can hopefully chalk up a win.

After a win we can get on a roll during the season and really turn things around.

GO DEES!

incorrect...if white plays, and jamar and holland we wont win. ferguson and paul johnson have been riddled by injuries..they need to string a few together before we can criticise them. pj is better than the other two atm. the other 3 need to lift BIGTIME.

The only similarty is 0-3 & thats where it ends. As mentioned earlier, injuries a little more severe, but the biggest difference, is the form of our big names or lack thereof..

Correct.

Last year, we improved with each passing round.

Our loss in Round 3 was very encouraging, and was very nearly a win against a top side.

Sunday's loss was the worst of the three. The game plan, the skills and the attitude were vastly different to last year, as is the injury list.

Nothing similar about this year and last, except where we are in terms of games won.

We can still turn the season around and make the 8, but we'll only be making up numbers yet again.

This year was meant to be a step forward, at best we'll remain stagnant.

I agree with you Jaded, you could tell we were gonna climb the ladder losing the game against adelaide 'controversially'. But this year we will be headed for the bottom 4 due to our poor form and injuries. There is no use just making the top 8. If we want to win the flag, we need to aim for top 4 and make it happen. ND will probably be gone after this season and we'll have a fresh new start.

    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

    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
