  • 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.

I'd bet @Demonstone would want no apology and rather (like me) would welcome the continuing growth in this nerdy D'Land sub-culture!

Now, 'three parts to the answer' you say? I hear the sound of new ground breaking...

I just PMd you @Witches Hat but please ignore my guess as I just realised how stoopid it is.

Actually, maybe don’t ignore my guess. Maybe not so stoopid after all. I might be on to something.

or maybe I just want Tim and Demonstone to think they’re at risk of being beaten by a girl 😁

I was stung into action after WCW worked out Demonstone's last quiz, and I couldn't. 😁

Is this a clue, mo?

If not, can we please have a clue, @Witches Hat??????

Well I couldn't possibly figure this one out, can you??

I was ready to throw the towel in. I told Witches Hat I’m likely barking up the wrong tree. Witches Hat said I’m circling the tree and it’s the right tree. Now that I know that I feel I can’t give up.

I can elaborate on the previous clue.

Tony Jewell was a relatively easy choice as coach.

Jamie Elliott is another who is over qualified.

Two posters are sitting on two out of three but do have all three between them (no clue there, just a teaser for the two chasing second place).

Answer to be revealed this afternoon as I'll be offline for a few hours.

If the other poster contacts me, we could pool our resources and share silver and bronze!  :D

“Share silver and bronze” huh? I think I’m the poster who has two out of three, DS. If we go in cahoots, I’d expect no less than silver.

The clue hasn’t helped me at all. 
I’ve looked at players numbers, where they were drafted and where they played their junior footy. I would ask that this quiz is not wrapped up so quickly as some of us work anywhere between 8 & 13 hours a day.

 Thanks

Sunk cost fallacy. Pretty much every Dee is a victim of this syndrome @WalkingCivilWar@layzie.

While the protagonists for the podium ponder the last link @tilly18 has done a Bradbury and come from nowhere, although in this instance the colour is silver and not gold.

Well played.

Gold and silver to @tilly18 in the last two events! Building a reputation!

And that @mo64, eh? Very solid over the journey.

I've just returned after my initial post and the subsequent wasted hour or so. None the wiser. Shall now sleep (nightmare?) on it...

    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

    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.

    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
