  • 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.

Ferguson should be in he is our best tall backman if they would only give him a go

That is a dangerous comment on this website!

I'm not gonna have a go at Daniher not playing the kids just yet. Sure I'd prefer CJ in instead of Brown but don't forget we are still trying to resurect the season. Both are out of form but Brown has experience, and that's why he is in.

As for the kids like Buckley, Garland and Newtown, we will be seeing plenty of them in the second half of the year.

Brown over CJ what a joke... Yze Magic can you honestly tell me Brown is of more worth to the side... at least CJ can kick the ball properly not these pissy little under 10 chip kicks brown does..... sure he was great a few years ago but move on ND develop our team for 2008!!!

this is appaling... you can tell CJ will be a player but if he keeps getting dropped... he will end up like Jolly and Armstrong... playing great footy elsewhere.... Nd just doesnt have a clue how to develop young players..... not good enough... quite playing your old little "favourites" ND... u disgrace.

No question Browny is still AFL standard.

BUT, who is better for the future of the club. CJ hands down.

Do not get me wrong Nathan has been a great player for our club and i appreciate that.

BUT our list is not a premiership list so we have tp play the kids. and take advantage of this years draft.

At zip 5 we will most likely get a top 5 so we have to be tough in oure assessments of players at the moment.

lol

i believe byron should line up on chad cornes, the cornes boys arent the toughest customers going around, and especially if chad knows byron is always going to be around him somewhere, he'll think twice about trying to get the ball

Agree 100%

Agree 300%. Chris Johnson has been very ordinary in every game he has played. What is everybody basing this great talent on? His breeding?, Practice match or Sandy games?....when he has represented the red and blue, he has looked well out of his depth. Seems to have a decent kick on him, his awareness is poor, is slow and weak. Would love to see him make it as much as anybody, but needs to improve rapidly.

hard to take the step up if you know one mistake will likely cost you your place in the side, they also need to leave him in pretty much one position so he can get settled, which is why i think he should be told you have 3 or so games to prove yourself, atleast with some pressure of him he might relax a bit

as for your comments he is slow and weak, i dont think he is slow, ive seen him go in for the ball when its his turn and as for awareness i agree he can be a bit unaware of his surrounds but how many times does brown get caught? how better to gain awarness (like bell is) other than to play a number of games in the senoirs to get use to the pace of the game

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    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

    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
