  • 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.

That wouldn’t happen.

The Dogs struggled to beat Geelong’s VFL side last night.

It was probably only match fitness of Cat’s younger guys in the last quarter that gave Dogs the win.

They look an unhappy team.

geelong are a shadow of last year.  Why isn't that the narrative in the media.  ?

Dogs absolutelt gettable y by anyone in the 8 in Week 1.

I would love the Dees to have such a goalkicking key forward. 

If Petty has an injury free season next year, bookmark him kicking 50 plus goals.

We had to do it in 1990 against Hawthorn. Won both games, but they were brutal and we had nothing else left in the tank. 

Half true. We had a week off before we played WC at Waverley in the SF due to their draw with Collingwood in the QF in week one and their replay. We should have beaten WC, we let a golden opportunity slip that year.

Bulldogs arent out of the woods yet.

GWS must be a huge chance today with Mr Toby right on form and one of the best defence teams. Those Carlton cheats will he lucky to kick 10 goals.

##&#%%##  F Carlton.

 

Stkilda will be praying for a Dees win. If not, Stkilda's run in Sept will crash into a wall in Week1.  Over and out.

Those 2 games against Hawthorn were all we had. The week off didn’t do anything 

we lost games mid year that cost us

Completely agree. The week's delay meant we were not tuned in in the day we played WC. You could tell in the warmup that we were in trouble.

it’s a joke. If we missed finals after winning the flag they’d be calling for Goodys head

not to mention the bombers not being dragged over the coals with their massive finals choke and 150pt loss.

Watching the Port Richmond game. Considering turning the commentary down. Brereton is just so full of himself.

I don’t mind the coverage having one person as ‘special’ comments, but they just talk way too much. They have a comment on just about every piece of play.

Real incentive for Carlton to beat GWS so they get the Bulldogs in Week 1. Reckon Carlton will rip the Doggies apart.

Another point is who would Port rather play next week. 

They’d rather not play Brisbane in Brisbane.

Incredibly Port have lost 4 straight up at the GABBA and 5 of their last 6 encounters against Brisbane.

They don’t match up well against Brisbane.

And Port are playing like a team that knows it can’t play a week 1 home final, albeit with a small lead.

Geez Butters and Rozee are going to be an issue for us if we play them in the finals.

We’ve already lost to them this year directly because of those 2. They weren’t just key contributors, they we’re the difference in round 10.

Hahahaha

Well we know they always get 3 from soft Curnow free kicks for a start.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
