  • 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.


Thank you Demonland

Only joined recently after reading DL content and listening to DL podcasts for many years. Also have posted on BigFooty  for years. Finally joined because:

1. I think the standard of the Pod is first class and offers the best analysis going around.

2. The DL forum discussion is deeper and much more varied and informative than on BF.

All in all thank you Andy and all involved. I spend far too much time on here.

This site is part of the fabric of society!!

I mean, with all that this club has been through since it began. For it to have survived is a credit to all involved. 
It should be heritage listed.

I remember years ago on SEN late at night, there was a discussion on club supporter websites and Demonland was way out in front. 
It is also a great companion when traveling as long as WiFi is connected!!

Let’s all go back to back

and no bagging players on the Gameday Threads!!

I once had a tradesman over at my place who also must have seen some Demon's paraphernalia and asked if I go for the Demons. We had about the Demons for about 20 mins and he told me that I must go to Demonland to read about the Demons.

True Story.

I’m thinking we all want to read the next bit of that story. The bit where you reply to him -  “funny you should say that, cos…….”, and what comes after.

So many club forums have come and gone over the years across all clubs. It really is amazing how long DL has stood the test of time.

Many of us have had bursts of posting often and periods of not being on here at all. I went through some very long periods where I would just come on here and read what other people were saying but the fact is it's always been there for us. I don't go on Facebook groups for MFC discussion, this is the only place for me.

Me mate says to me,

  • did you read x, y and zed in the paper?
  • what do you think about Dermie's rant,

I say, was it on Demonland? If it's not on 'Land, I really don't care. It's the only source I trust.

Thanks Andy and all.

This.

Mike Gibson once said the following:

"The average person's not interested in front-page political stories. For the average bloke, Canberra is a cold, horrible place he went to once. He's not interested in Canberra, but Parramatta - he might be interested in what's going on there."

That's how I feel about DL and the Herald Sun is a cold place.

The majority of the users of this site are readers and not posters/people who have signed up an account.

You guys are actually in the minority by a considerable margin.

I said I'd never heard of it.

And then I told him I was just joking and that I started it. It's actually a little bit embarrassing but he was then treating me like I was a celebrity. I had to leave but my wife told me that for the rest of the day he kept saying that he couldn't believe he was in Demonland HQ. He still charged me though so there's that. So much for being a celebrity if there are no perks.

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
