  • 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.

Isn't "flu like symptoms" the way they are describing it these days, presumably to prevent triggering the facebook certified medical experts? 

he could have anything from a 24 hour sniffle to covid

we just don't know

Not to raise the alarm but I’ve just come out the other side of the flu, 1 week properly bed ridden and then 2 weeks well below par to follow.

I’m not old (37) nor am I an elite athlete but I’m fitter than most. This is the sickest I’ve ever been 

Hope Clarry is ok 

I’ve had the flu twice over the years it’s horrible. First time I was literally imagining things with a temp in the 40’s. Second time bed ridden for 10 days.

alright i may have been triggered. i ain’t no doctor but i work for a company that makes a influenza vaccine. 

experiencing an influenza infection means you are out of action for two weeks and likely in bed for 5 days. 

people refer to flu as having a cold or more accurately flu like symptoms. We have not been told Clarry has an influenza infection. he has a cold or a random viral infection. let’s see how he pulls up. he’ll be fine. if he is hydrated and energetic on monday he will play

I’ve had some bad doses of man flu as well.

But if Clarry is training as reported (away from the group), it can’t be that bad.

Right? I TOUCHED YELLOW AND BLACK CREPE PAPER!

In desperation after a messy poo wiping ones bottom with crepe paper is de rigueur. I once used a tea bag but that's another story.

It's April 2023 and some people still think that the team will line up as announced on Thursday night.  :rolleyes:

yes, they never do, but Chandler at half back is just plain hilarious.

Is this a trick question? The players never toss the coin.

Between the lines I am asking as to who will captain the Dees on Monday.

"Tossing the coin" is just an old saying saying meaning who is captain today.

As much as I've always liked seeing a team named in position, they may as well just post the selected squad in alphabetical or jumper number order these days.

Reverse order please.

I bet Yeates, Yze and Ziebell were always annoyed at school when the teacher marking the roll started at A and said "You can go when I've called your name".

Do we need to purchase a ticket or can I use the my membership as general admission on the mfc app?

It's a home game so should have GA access on your membership.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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

    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,
