  • 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.


GAMEDAY: SF vs Carlton

Just watched the 2000 Melbourne V Paper baggers on Foxtel with the volume up quite loud. I missed it back then as I was in Brisbane for work and recall being warned by the hotel management to keep the noise down as neighbours were complaining. After singing the song with the team I woke up around 10:30 pm wondering where I was. Oh dear.

I made a comment during the game and just watching it again now I said the same. Malcolm Blight just really HATES Melbourne and puts us down every time. His anti- Melbourne stance is repeated today with the current crop of commentators. Frustrating to listen to ( looking at you Brian Taylor) but just why? I realise we have been c--p for years but playing good footy now. Oh well the best we can do is keep winning and that will erk them even more.

At least no-one has posted anything about Kozzie's winning goal last year this time. 

The time is right now 

So good. So good.

One mate is messaging me saying Gawn is a late withdrawal.

Another is saying Yze has got the Richmond job. 

Can confirm Richmond job is no decision as yet but between Yze and Mini. Yze's preso was apparently outstanding.

I hope Yze has got the job and thus can focus on this game. 
 

I think it was Sanderson that mentioned that he thought Goodie needed to visit the box last week so he could more quickly see how our shallow entries were allowing their rebound game. 
 

Made me think that perhaps Yze has been distracted with interview prep etc. the past few weeks.

 

I hope your friend is wrong Max 😬

My tip is that Schache will be the sub. Provides coverage for Gawn and is a better forward than Grundy. Unless we can't mark anything in our forward 50, I suspect he'll get subbed in late. Maybe even for Gawn if we're 5 goals up.

Schache has all the skills and ability   but does not take enough agreession pills

On a lighter note,

Where are the MFC rooms ,are they permanent or do they get shafted from one room to another even though its our Home ground.

I noticed on Facebook a dees supporter filming dees running out from the cricket pavillion end or Ponsford stand last Thursday night.

Stand looked half empty. I thought we ran out from the Members wing but i havent lived in OZ for years.

Games that i have watched o/seas dont show the pre match run outs.

We are the home team I presume as we finished higher on the ladder. So usual rooms.

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.

Hopefully the first half isn’t like last time where we’d bomb it out of defence, straight too Carlton defenders set up behind the ball. 
 

They’re going to do that again so Hopefully Goody has a plan to work around that and we can force them to change their set up early days. 
 

Cmon Dees!

3 dees to about 20 carlton on my train

That's just because most are arriving at the G in the Range Rovers. 

In the Range Rovers we probably outnumber them 20:3 as well, so all good.

    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.

The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
