    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.

Haha You are one strange lady WCW (notice I didn’t revert to calling you demented this time). Imagine if by some catastrophe we manage to lose. You’ll be sitting in the car with your DA mates driving all the way back from Adelaide with an extra couple of hundred $ in your account - and wondering if it will be wise to tell your car mates this news. They might leave on the side of the highway - Reach pledge or not. I certainly would! 

Nah ! Stick with demented Neil,  it is le mot juste !!!

I’m struggling to read past this bit. I’m in shock. That’s the nicest thing you’ve ever called me!

As for my DA buddies leaving me on the side of the highway… would never happen. At least I hope not. Incidentally, Pauline Fritsch might be joining us on the road trip. If that’s the case we’ll have a ball, win or lose. She’s almost as demented as me.

Absolutely no surprise there. Essendon fans are THE WORST of all. I hate everything about that club. Everything! I hate them almost as much as I love the Dees.  But you know what I hate the most about them? I hate that they evoke such a feeling of intense hatred, the likes of which I’ve never experienced before. I didn’t think I’d ever be capable of such a level of hate. It’s a lot of hate for one small person to feel. GOD HOW I HATE THEM. 

ok .i get it you are not fond of essendon

Up till now WCW, I thought by Demonland standards you were quite a well adjusted human! We'll win by six goals but it's just for the record it's only a game!

DON’T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!!

I’m enraged at the mere mention of that club. I can hear myself one day in the future saying, “But Your Honour, I had to kill him, he was an Essendon supporter!”

A reminder of how much I hate Essendon: every week I place a bet AGAINST the Dees, regardless of the odds (which I don’t really understand anyways). My reason is because if we win, fantastic! But if we lose, the $ cushions the blow a little. It’s only ever a $10-$20 bet… except for when it’s vs Essendon. Last year, round three, I lost $100 but skipped home from the ‘G happy as a pig in [censored]. I’ve put $100 on them again for this week. And the car trip home from Adelaide will be so sweet despite me being $100 poorer. THAT’S how much I detest this pack of uncultured cretins.

PS a few shock losses have resulted in decent “wins.” When this happens I make a donation to Reach (forever in my heart, Jimmy 💕). It turns dirty money into clean. 

Hahahs i also put money on the team we are playing against. I've also got $5 on each of the other 17 clubs to win the flag. At this point if we can't win it, go the saints lol

Thank you @WalkingCivilWar you have revived my god damned hatred of that football club.

This is a deep seated hatred that goes back as far as my football memory goes (mid 80s) - my most hated side ever.... it has unfortunately waned with them being pathetic and all, which has left Colonwood out in front of hatred. But if they ever even remotely come good again.... it will return. I'm sure there are multiple records on here of me venting about my hatred for that God awful club. I miss my pure unadulterated hatred of Essington 

Was at Windy Hill as a 12 or so year old for the bloodbath game with Strawbs O'Dwyer having his beautiful face rearranged. F*****g Hirdy pulling out 2 goals from his [censored] in the dying minute to beat us by a point or so in 99 or 2000 or whenever 

The desire to completely obliterate that football runs deep - and doesn't even include the drugs garbage...

You really are a one eyed supporter if you reckon Strawbs had a beautiful face.

Bummers were irrelevant to me until year 2000.

  • They won the grand final pumped on steroids (I will always maintain this, with their "weights program" and/or "physique development" looking impossible and dodgy)
  • They bashed a group of brilliant young Dees players out of the game

My despising of them went instantly to 11 on the dial, and has never abated. Leapfrogged Carlton and Collingwood. 

And then the jaw-dropping hubris during the drugs scandal headed by the most arrogant coach to ever grace our game - James Hird - moved my dial to 12.

I love seeing them struggling. I would prefer them finish position 13-15 each year so they are never wooden spooners so can't get the best young players, and therefore remain mediocre and irrelevant.

Having a parent and sibling barrack for an opposing team, for me, makes it very difficult to share all of your hatred for Essendon, as I have stated they are third in my team order. First obviously the Dees, 2nd Brisbane (I'm ex Fitzroy originally) 3rd the Don's. Funny thing is I love it when we beat them 🤪.

My Essendon loving mother and sister are to blame for this weakness, growing up with the Essendon games on the TV, after my team at the time had been merged, embedded something in me that cannot be removed short of a lobotomy. I tried very much during the peptides saga (which to this day they both still deny they did anything wrong) and all I could feel was their hurt, stupid empathy.

Collingwood is and will always be my most hated team. I know way to many "supporters" that are so quick to tell you how good they are when they are winning but you do not hear a thing from them when they're losing or it's "oh I haven't been watching this year are they doing badly?"

So there you have it, fire at will I, cannot change it.

I wish I could embrace my hatred for them like you do. I’d love to enjoy hating them. It’s difficult to hate them with every fibre of my being as well as hating the hating of them. It just makes me hate them even more. If that’s even possible.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    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
