  • 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 might reply if I could actually understand what you are saying here.

Fair enough i read it and it was a bit jumbled. The point being is i find it quite difficult to cope with the Media week in and week out so i hope they don't think we are going to cop it.

Ditto.... mumbo jumbo

You can see the disdain that players have for the indecision making process that goes on week in and week out. 

How decisions that are completely incongruous to the whole game except for the last minute pop up and a team loses.

How players do not get penalised for being in the protected zone in one game this week yet last week were, by the same umpire, in a different game at a crucial stage.

How players get regularly warned going over a mark, from some clubs and when others from other clubs do it they are penalised. How angles regularly get changed  to play on and not play on calls

Tonight's Special Privilege for Collingwood.

 Coll Player puts hand up. Carlton on mark. Player kicks ball after extra seconds have elapsed. All we hear in our games is play on.

HAPPENS EVERY WEEK

Heard from confidant that we are all the AFL talk about every Monday or Tuesday. Stop laughing at the AFL, boys.

Which umpires to do our game and which umpires not to...

How to catch us unprepared, different rule to be regurgitated and enforced. How cocky we are. How our senior/leaders players talk back to the Media all the time, to the point of no communication for fear of retribution back on the field.

Bollocks

If I need to use three words consistent with the thread: Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks

This thread is a joke.  I didnt see the game but how can virtually every player get a negative write up when one lousy kick would of won the game for us and we'd be sitting pretty heading towards Sept.  Huge ask for MFC to win on the road for the fifth time against the 2nd most in form side over in Adelaide.

Please stop wearing those ridiculous theme tops. All the teams look awful in them. NRL is laughing at us.

The AFL has lost its mind over the past 13 years or so. I reckon the rot started with the Meatloaf GF  debacle.

Perhaps you might have stopped with that.

Had you....

    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

    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.
