  • 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.

Not surprising, Gawn, Salem, Lever, Jackson, Petracca, Kossie, BBB all looked sore, Viney, Melksham, May proppy!

On Footy Classified, Wilson said that if Yze gets the job, he'll try to take Mark Williams with him...

Adem - you leave to take this role with our blessing. Don't steal our resources on the way out!

I spoke to Chocko air training a month ages and,among other things , he told me that he lived in Hampton.If he went to Essendon he would be doing a lot of cross town driving . Very time consuming.

This is what I would have thought but no-one is saying anything in the media about it. I honestly thought it would put a hold on futures like Adem's but it doesn't seem that way for the moment.

yes, it's a tough one for the club and the media because it just opens up another huge can of worms, so i can understand why nothing is being said publicly by club or media.

if adem doesn't get the job we'll probably never know if this was a factor

I thought Essendon were looking for an experienced coach?

They were until they realised there was no-one and had to backpedal. I don't remember them coming out and saying anything but they've managed to sneak their changed plans under the radar nicely.

Josh Mahoney clarified that as meaning someone with plenty of coaching experience, not necessarily as a senior coach.

 

Nobody wants the job, is the bottom line. I hope Adem will survive the next few years

Certainly seems Yze, Hird, Solomon, Lade and possibly Caracella and Brad Scott do, so not sure I agree with the first part.

Definitely agree it's a high risk job though.

Essendrug will burn another Rookie because nobody wants the job.

You do see that as a ridiculous clarification though don’t you?

We want to pick a coach that has plenty of coaching experience… (looks around room and sees only weird looks from former senior coaches) …doesn’t have to be as a senior coach!!! Can be as an assistant!!!

Ruling out?? Jake Melksham? Luke Hodge? Like I don’t care but they wanted Lyon and Clarkson to be falling over themselves to come to them they are so deluded.

Not really tbh, thought it made perfect sense. They want a coach who has at least come up through the ranks, done the courses, done the training, been an understudy etc. Especially makes sense within the context of when they brought in Hird the first time and how that went for them.

But I bet you they'd welcome back Hird with open arms 🤣

    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,
