Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

VOTES: SF vs Brisbane

So sad and farewell 2022 

6-Trac ⭐️- battled through pain. Clearly our best. On one leg and he’s still a star. 

5-Clarry ⭐️- scragged and gouged all night. Battled and tackled (12 tackles) and showed he’s a warrior 

4-Petty ⭐️- battled all night and saved 3 certain goals. Great effort. Great year. 

3-Harmes 👍🏻- better. Clean disposal. One grab footy. 

2-Langdon 👍🏻- ran and ran and ran and kicked and was again in the best 

1- ANB. Ok. Just gets a vote due to his 1st half. But generally disappeared after 1/2 time. Runs into trouble. At least got two good goals. 

 

Kozzzy ok - good 1st half but his miss in the 4th (in the goalsquare… No lions ) was unforgivable 

Hibbo Ok - battled and generally beat Cameron 

May - ok. Beaten but battling on. Hipwood showed his athletic ability and perhaps batter without competing with Daniher. 

Brayshaw ok - tagged Neale(why?) but generally looked tired. Good goal in 4th. 

Hunt - ok. Nothing terrible but nothing enlightening. Did his job. 

Fritsch - ok had a great year but had two costly turnovers. Two goals but was a little off tonight.

💩Salem -just looked slow. Was he even fit. Disposal not sharp at all. Kicks to the clouds not direct. Disappointed. 

🤯Viney - ouch - had to say, heart of a lion and tackles all night but too often took wrong decision. Missed goal chance in 3rd quarter was costly. 

🤯Gawn - start of ‘22, mentioned at best in the comp. But he looked tired. Hitouts to no one. Better with a big punch. Tapped it mostly to Neale and Zorko in 2nd half. 

🤯Lever - good discipline in defence so then why???? A goal down and gives up an obvious 50. Why?? Arrogance ?? 

The spuds 

-1🥶Melksham- one good play then disappears. Wtf. Very disappointing. 

-2🥔Ben Brown - unable to mark and lead. Is he fit or strong enough. Dropped countless marks. 

-3🥔Jackson - omg. Fumbles all the time. So many dropped marks. Handballing to other players under pressure. Shines in 2-3 passages then nothing. Ummm. So disappointing.  

-4🥔Spargo - smart but essentially physically too weak. Tackled too easily. 

-5🥔Rivers - ran into trouble and panicked and fumbled. Costly mistakes. 

-6🥔 Sparrow - terrible all night. Missed goals. Missed opportunities. Cost us. Dumb tackles. Career worst game by far.

Referring to our players as 'spuds' says more about you than it does the players.

Excellent and accurate summary.

As bad as Sparrow was last night, his career worst games was the Queens Bday game in Sydney last year.

Posted whilst angry, disappointed, frustrated etc etc. Feel like for all the years we’ve been downtrodden, our team is really good and could’ve won it again. Really disappointed in the decisions made by several repeat offenders. I know they’re not spuds.  
 

Btw there was some positives in the star ⭐️ ratings.

Learn from it and don’t do it, seriously it’s absolutely cringeworthy (not just directed at you) to read posts clearly made solely based on emotion and frustration

6 - Tracc - hampered but tough and skilled, goal kicking has fallen away

5 - Harmes - provided the link option and one of few who can mark one on one

4 - Petty - saved us time and time again what an asset he is

3 - Langdon - tried his heart out but disposal a bit off tonight

2 - Clayton - Umpires enemy got no protection is a tough champion

1 - ANB for a good 1st half - needs to back himself more

After half time we couldn’t buy a mark or kick a clean goal, they were slotting them from 50, perfect playing conditions in front of 62,000 mainly MFC and couldn’t get it done. Vey sad second half at the G last night.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you his observations from this morning's Captain's Run including some hints at the changes for our ANZAC Eve clash against the Tigers. Sunny, though a touch windy, this morning, 23 of them no emergencies.  Forwards out first. Harrison Petty, JvR, Jack Billings, Kade Chandler, Kozzy, Bayley Fritsch, and coach Stafford.  The backs join them, Steven May, Jake Lever, Woey, Judd McVee, Blake Howes, Tom McDonald

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim
