  • 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 was actually referring to a well known satirical piece (bigfooty iirc) about a day with the grog squad where shazza (iirc) was the fearsome head honcho. very politically incorrect

some other poster might remember a link?

Yeah.  It was one of Biffinators unofficial previews.  He wrote some funny stuff and had a particular knack of getting under the skin of Tiger fans.  I think he had one of their irate responses as his signature

Fists of Fury was a great video game in the 90's.

Now Fists of Fury is a great defender… and he’s all ours. Can’t wait to see him put those fists to work on Monday!

I don’t even know who Miller is. Honestly they’re rubbish in 2023 and I’ll be severely disappointed if we lost to them.

Those on twitter will know that Richmond have some of the most arrogant supporters. They would need to win the wooden spoon for them to accept that their dynasty is over.

I had to look him up after reading his name in this thread. 

He is Richmond's 23 year old regular vfl ruckman. Pick 63 in the 2017 draft 1.98m and has played 14 games of AFL. 

Edit: He is 6-3-5 in those 14 games.

Has played in 3 draws in 14 games, incredible stat.

Some years ago I was having a drink at a bar in The Castro district of San Francisco . Interesting place.

I'm relieved the merits of  "Fists of Fury" didn't come up in the  discussion.

I'm still reluctant to call then rubbish or write them off.

At the end if the day they still have some quality premiership players still playing and on their day they can still win the tough game.

And knowing our form, I'm not entirely sure I have full trust in our squad that we can just win the games we're suppose too. Gotta respect the competition and each team we come up again. Especially now after the Essendon loss.

Actually thought this would be the year where you'd feel pretty comfortable knowing you'd rock up each week and just bank in the ala Iike the Geelong of 2008/2009.

Me too. I was thinking Brad Miller retired ages ago?

Surprised to see Cotchin is still playing this year. I assumed he retired already… his numbers and impact back this up! 

I don't watch much of him, but the number of dog acts he pulls has increased.

    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

    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.
