  • 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.

Stuart Dew: can eat pies, can't coach.

Will have lots of free time to lose a few kgs next year methinks.

Dont need to worry about a 20th licence, either Suns should fold or merge with GWS and keep the comp at 18 teams.

Pathetic from the Suns

They keep making me lose in my tipping competition 😡😡, I have lost 4 rounds because of them. Don't know why I keep trusting them.

Pies just look like they are centrally by by AI. Their game at times looks so ridiculously in sync that you would say it’s flukey - but it is not.
 

Yes the Suns really suck and I think this game will just about seal Dewy’s fate. Poor fella - had a Rolls Royce list but could never really create a team environment. They need to bring in Hardwick and a brand new coaching panel.

Collingwood remind me so much of the 2021 Bulldogs.

Yes. But I reckon they’re more deliberately creative - and they pull it off so many times. And a feature in this game has been the breakneck speed running past the ball carrier - incredible. They get 20-25 meters instantly each time. But then a silky delivery into 50. Very impressive.

No pressure in this game of course. We showed what can happen if you hassle and block and choke their ball movement.

But the Pies style looks very, very good if you give them an inch.

This game is all about the meaningless of the Suns. I’d love to know their stats in the last 10 weeks of a season since their inception. They still can’t hang in when it matters.

They don’t mean anything, and nobody cares. I bet Fitzroy wish they were given this much grace.

Just send them to Tasmania and keep the competition at 18 teams.

Collingwood showing what a genuine contender should do against a bottom 10 team.

We should do similar against GWS tomorrow.

If we were doing this to the Suns, Demonlanders would say, well, it's only Gold Coast, this is the bare minimum.

We love a good re-frame on Demonland though.

I mean we barely got out of Metricon alive. 
But the Suns don’t play second halves of seasons. The bye is their end of season trip.

That's it. I'd be quite happy to play the Suns between Round 16-24. Remember what we did to them at Marvel in 2021? They throw in the towel pretty quickly.

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
