  • 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.

And again Petty goes unheralded for a sensational performance and a great last quarter. He is a star and he’s only 22.

Brown comes from the era of “if you’re someone who cries…a cry-baby, you shouldn’t be playing football”. It wasn’t that long ago, so things are changing rapidly. Listening to the game commentary - BT,

Jonathan Brown last night: "I think Harrison Petty would be embarrassed with his part in this situation " Yes, he absolutely said that.

It'll be something like, Zorko said "your sister wears army boots", not knowing that during the week, Petty's sister was indeed found to be wearing army boots.

For "army boots", substitute something far more intensely personal.

Zorko probably didn't know that he'd touched a raw nerve, but when you're playing Mr Tough Guy, things can backfire on you.

Wouldn't say sombre, more 'distracted' if that makes sense at all?

Could be distracted by the Petty issue or could be focused on finals because that is all that counts.

Alan Richardson commented on it post game, Goody spoke about it in the presser, May talked about it post-match, so have most players. Clearly it's on their minds.

They're trying to stay professional. They will let the relevant parties sort it out.

Not that 'Nev' your talk about the players reaction in the rooms after the game is what I'm talking about and you know it.

What are you on tonight???

The Petty/Zorko thing is big, we all know that.

They were all asked about it, they didn’t bring it up themselves… it’s funny how you tend to think about something when asked about it. Why the need to dramatise everything?

Goodwin punting to the AFL means he is pretty filthy about it - didn’t diffuse it, just played a straight bat.

The Lions head of footy didn’t contest what was said - only that Zorko apologised and so did the Lions.

The best thing that could happen for the Lions heading into a game with the Tigers is for Zorko to be suspended.

Give them a chance to win…

Zorko is shizen under the finger nails. You can call somebody a [censored] on the field but if you call out some ones family member a [censored] you have crossed a bridge too far.

Right, so it's a big thing, they're all commenting on it, but it's totally not effecting them... ok.

Richardson literally sough out an interview after the game.

Embarrassing how much you follow me around. Stick to the 'make off it what you will' routine.

I've always felt like Dayne Zorko is a [censored]. I suppose this confirms it.

They're copping heat already online for "faux toughness", which is very accurate. Zorko, Mathieson, Robinson, all pretty rubbish fellows.

Zorko got caught stone cold holding the ball by Langdon in the first quarter and reacted by grabbing Langdon's hair and putting him in a headlock. [censored].

I might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were.

Zorko has always been a crap bloke. Look at his run ins with Touk Miller. He is the worst captain in the AFL by a mile. They will never win a premiership with him as captain

    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,

    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
