  • 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.

TWO HOURS TO GO

My 4yo just asked me to watch Home Alone after I finish work (lol) - it's his first 'grown up' kid film and has watched it on repeat the last couple of weeks. 

That should time nicely for first bounce. And there are parallels for bonus points...

"This is my house, I have to defend it"

TRUE, KEVIN!

What a great night for the Footy. I wish we were in Collingwoods position, we gave ourselves every chance but just come up short but still playing in a Final on a warm September night I'll take over the alternative. I hope we've all got bigger smiles on when that Final siren goes tonight. Go D's Go Storm Go.

Make of it what you will....

Ye olde Barassi pub in Richmond, Mt View, usually flies the two club's flags and almost always both flags are on show.

The Demons flag is in full flight

While the Blues one is tangled around the pole and not on show

So youre saying Dees dont have their own permanent change rooms. They take what theyre given on the day according to home away status.

Sounds about right for MCC\AFL.

Because there are different home teams at the G depending on who is playing. When we are the home team we have the home team rooms that get fitted out with sponsor signage etc

Where does this BT hate come from? I re-watched the Collingwood second half and he was fanning our embers from early in Q3 - even though the Filth out-scored us in Q3. He was saying "4 goals, it's stlll very do-able". I don't get this argument that he's anti-Dee. I do get the argument that the AFL (and the Tribunal) are pro-Filth, though. Same as they are pro-Swans. (Like Keating says, never bet against self-interest.)

He was the football coach when I was at school back in the day. The bloke loves himself. He hasn’t changed in 24 years. Tota f-l-o-g.

Is your kid aware of the infinitely better sequel? I just about died of laughter as a young fella watching the trap scenes in that one.

About 50:50 supporters on my train. The Sunderland AFC bloke got off the train already.

Eh?? I live in Sunderland and SAFC is my other sporting love - off to see us at QPR tomorrow. Hope he didn’t embarrass us. If you’d asked him, he’d have willingly sung a few songs about hating the magpies.

Go Dees.

Heatherdale station like a ghost town compared to last week. 

Lilydale line train actually much busier this week. Melbourne Storm playing tonight also so it’s packed!

I strangely feel calm.

Not sure why?!

I am excited about tonight deep down though.

I feel we can win against the Blues.

Definitely more anxious last week compared to this week.

More confident in winning this game. Fingers crossed I am right! 🤞

Hoping that Brodie Grundy will be the "super sub" tonight.

GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS!!! 🔴🔵👹

And for those electing Shabbat, a prayer for a old testament style flogging tonight couldn't hurt. Tx.

Our game plan is territory, so the long kicks will continue. We would only look for short targets in the forward line if players were one-out, and this will only happen if we win the ball on transition and use speed to get down to the forward line. Unfortunately we are just too slow, or risk adverse, to move the ball with any speed to enable this to happen.

    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.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
