    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.

You did well melbourne

i dont care what anyone sys but to me the boys did there best!! we really deserved that win but thats footy for you guys. seriously im really positive about our future! todays game gave us a glimpse. guys like sylvia, dunn, bate, PJ, davey and bell all did well. c'mon guys look at the bloke we have out. Robbo, brock, bartram, whelan and rivers.. and then u got kids like frawley, garland and petterd who are bright prospects. im very proud of melbourne and well we all know that we are not gonna make the finals but lets still get behind the boys and support them. As for ND well really i think one more year wouldn't hurt.. he does bleed for the club and without all these injurys i think we could have been a top 4 club these year but oh well. i wsh them well for the rest of the year! ;)

Go dees!

We were one good player off a win. If rivers or petterd, mclean , bartram or even a fit byron had played, we would have won!

Good to see some heart form the boys. Nice to see trapper, bruce and flash find some footy.

good on the boys, im proud of them, gutted, suicidal and depressed, but proud, go the boys. great effort. if that damn midget didn't pretend he was a magician we would've won. colin's mark deserved the goal. top effort.

footy is so much in the brains, as we have proved the past two weeks, attitude will make us win more than we lose from here on in, injuries or not

We are Rivers and Whelan away from a win. Would have made the difference today without a shadow of a doubt.

Hopefully we have those two and McLean back ASAP.

im not happy either. im not as dissapointed as i have been over the season so far. but still not happy.

Not many players seem to make a lead today and we were kicking in to 1 on 1's all day.

and our kicking was terrible at that.

have a look at the stats. i bet we had a lot more kicks than the bulldogs. i bet we were almost equal in clerances.

but we still lost.

no im not happy at all. i dont think i deserve to be shot. i belive this was our year to do well and we are doing really badly.

in fact we couldnt be doing much worse.

im not accepting average performances any more.

how can you say not well done when we put it such an effort. we were just a small backmen from repelling so many attacks with force and direction, i.e. matthew whelan.

110% effort, cant ask for more

Melbourne won a flag in 64 there is no well done until we get the next one. Sorry guys i am not HAPPY!

i agree with ya tooly, i ain't happy about the loss, but i was still impressed with the effort. At least this year we know that we will get some quality in the draft.

In footy it doesn't matter about a game like that, it all comes down to the last week in september

You forgot Whelan.

I was thinking exactly the same thing today.

Imagine if we had Brock, Rivers, Whelan, Bartram, Robbo, Pettard, Pickett all in that side...and fit!

The sooner we start planning for 2008, the sooner we get games into Newton, Petterd, Frawley - the sooner we get our structure organised for 2008. Port did this last year and it is paying dividends - they will be playing finals this year, we won't as we would have to win 12 out of 15 to be a chance, so let the club announce what it is doing and move on (even if that means announcing a 1 year extension to Dniher's contract). The sooner this happens the sooner the club can get it right, and more than likely we'll win a few games pretty quickly.

Was so proud of the boys today. I've been watching for two decades and I can't remember a time when we have tried so hard, regardless of the mistakes or the stuff-ups. Despite the fact are 0-7 I am loving coming to see us play. I hate losing but by geez they're showing some heart, some ticker, some FIGHT and thats what I want to see.

I have a feeling our culture is turning around.

"...and fit". I guess I worded it wrong. Pickett is not fit, but if he was, he would be in ahead of Warnock, Ward, Brown and Godfrey. Obviously if Pickett hadnt been dropped, Ward wouldnt have come in.

I can understand that.

I'm not happy we lost but i'm not disappointed cause they had a dig.

MFC kids show good signs with dunn really impressing. i knew bate and jones would be good but i was unsure about dunn.

I'm really glad i read that wrong.

    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,

    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.
