  • 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...

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
