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.

Melbourne should continue on their fine form with what should be a comfortable win against the Suns which is on Saturday 15th of October 7:40 pm. Gold Coast's form hasn't been too bad with 3 wins in the last 4 games winning their last game by 34 points against bottom of the ladder Sydney. While Melbourne has been in red hot form just belting the Bulldogs by 64 points. I'm predicting the Dees to get up by 6 goals.

Possible team

B: Birch, Gillard

HB: Goldrick, Lampard, Heath

C: Mithen, Hanks, Paxman

HF: Bannan, Zanker, Hore

F: D.Pearce, Harris

Foll: Caris, Purcell, West

IC: Duffy, Chaplin, Fitzsimon, Mackin, Sherriff

 

Not sure if Gay gets up for this one if she does she replaces Chaplin. L.Pearce has concussion so more likely Caris the raw ruckman will get her chance.

That was brilliant wasn't it. The players you mention above are all such natural footballers. Add daisy, paxy, bannon, heath and hanks (who has the one thing that only the best players have

Ah the reverse jinx, works every time! Great win, especially considering the outs. Didn't miss a beat really. 15/21 who played in the GF earlier this year. How good is Purcell? I reckon even

It’s a pleasure to watch this team. There’s talent to burn on every line, and a real connection in the game-play. Between the men’s the women’s and Casey, it really is a magical time to be a

Pearce is a massive out. She and Harris are the two players we can't replace. Perhaps Zanker can do some more rucking, and what she lacks in hit outs will hopefully be offset by her work at ground level.

Hopefully we can take enough chances to keep the game reasonably stress free in the second half.

Ultimately we just need to keep winning to lock in a couple of finals at Casey Fields.

Huge game tonight between the Lions and Crows. A draw would be a great outcome for us (remote but not impossible given the low scoring in a AFLW games) as it means we will be top the table with a win v the Suns. Given our soft run home we just need to win our remaining games rather than make up percentage and it won't matter what the Crows or Lions do. Finishing top is crucial as playing Lions or Crows away in a final is a tough ask

Sammie Johnson’s injury is listed as “personal” which in this case is pregnancy. First ever AFLW player to have played while pregnant. I’m surprised it’s taken seven seasons for this to happen.

The side a little bit weaker with L.Pearce, Goldrick and Sherriff out but they still should get it done comfortably against the Suns.

Agree Werridee, we are weaker but I am looking forward to seeing if Caris can step up. At only 19 and 190cm she is one of the new breed of AFLW footballers. It would be great to see her progress and eventually take over when L Pearce hangs up the boots.

    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

    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.

    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
