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.

Time to get on the phone and ring  membership if you are unhappy.

Not ONE D/L er can assist you  really no matter what you say. Good Luck from  Consecutive 58 year adult MFC member who can wait for the present. 

You may be the club house leader 58er, 58 years - nice one.  As I said, I wasn't concerned or complaining nor expected anyone here to assist, merely like several others mentioning it hadn't yet arrived.  All that said, I checked the Aus Post tracking number and apparantley it's been sitting at the local PO since Friday 😂

Last time I lived in Melbourne - I was trident club. Hanging out at the Betty  Cuthbert Bar. Was good. Moved interstate (again) and went back to country/interstate member. 

Moved back to Melbourne the start of this year - best I could get was Demon seats in the Shane Warne Stand. They're OK. But would much rather be back where I used to be :( 

Membership team have me waitlisted...... bloody annoying 🙄  and unlikely to change I'd reckon after the rise in  Memberships now that we kinda good these days

Yeh, that's why I refuse to give up my Redlegs membership, because like Tridents, there's a waiting list.  I've been a Redlegs member since 1988 when I was 17.  Even with around 8 years living in the country I kept my Redlegs alive.

Bummer! Parcel from MFC was for my granddaughter who lives in Canberra.  Why it was sent to me I don't know as she gets special deal offers from the club when we play at Manuka, being a Canberra member, so they know!  Confusing. Don't worry 58er, I'll call the club tomorrow, I just didn't want to leave Demonlanders hanging 🤣

I have the past 25 years worth of membership cards in a shoe box in the bottom of my cupboard. I suspect I was a member before that but my dad's memory is no better than mine. Got the 25 printed on the card, but no pin that was supposed to come with my membership

Received mine today.  The presentation is so professional, and to me, this demonstrates the genuine high regard with which we members are now held by our great Club.  Well done to the current Board, CEO, Membership Department, and everyone else involved.

Just spoke to the club.  They told me my pack will be sent in the next two weeks. I expressed how upsetting it is that:

- despite the fact I renewed in late September, I was not in the first batch to get my pack

- last season, despite the fact I renewed both my AFL and AFLW memberships in October last year I didn't get my pack until March this year, and by the time I got it, they'd run out of the membership items for the AFLW and the season was just about over anyway.

- because I renewed my AFLW membership in October, I paid $99, even though by January the price was reduced to $60, and so I paid more and got less (I didn't even get stickers)

- when season 7 AFLW memberships were announced I paid $60 for my membership, but was then told 2 weeks later season 6 memberships would be automatically rolled over.  

- Season 7 memberships were meant to come with stickers.  Guess what?  I got no bloody stickers.  Guess what else?  They've run out. So I paid $159 for two seasons of AFLW memberships, even though it was mean to be only $60, and I got nothing to show for it.  This is despite being a foundation AFLW member and season 8 silver player sponsor.

I'm a 38 year member of the club, 35 year member of Redlegs, I'm a member of the Demon Army, and Ruby Demons. Each year I pay close to $1000 for AFL and AFLW memberships for myself and my two nephews. I'm either the unluckiest member of the club, or the club genuinely hates me.....

Needless to say I have no confidence my pack is even going to come.

Hmm you seem to have a genuine case of continuing troubles KDF. I hope sounding off here helps you. I have to admit if I were you I would have seriously considered pulling the plug. Have a coffee, go for a walk and then write a letter, not an email they are too easily dismissed or lost, send it by registered post to the President explaining your problems and asking in light  of your loyal support over decades and problems for some compensation. The club is no longer in a begging bowl state due to people like you they can afford and should give you some compensation. Good luck and  go Dees

I had a similar experience a while back D4L.  It seems that records of memberships in the 1960s, 70s and 80s were a shambles, and I was only credited with continuous membership from the time that record keeping improved. 

I'm quite proud of my unbroken years of membership, especially given our many years in the 'doldrums', so I wrote to the Club, and included copies of all the cards in my shoe box (like you, I suspect that some earlier cards were missing, but I was unable to verify this). 

Bottom line:  I thought the Club handled it in a  professional way, and I've experienced no subsequent hiccups.  Hopefully it will be the same for you in future years!

Sadly for me I don’t have the old membership cards to prove my membership. My first membership was 1974, from then till now I have missed four years membership during the 80s and 90’s. No big deal that I have no proof I am happy with what  has been credited to me. I know I have been a member since 74 so that is all that matters. I wonder how many more I have to go?

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
