  • 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.

Old 6 whether you’re the beneficiary of a press pass or you’ve hit the sweet spot and shooting with some very nice teleglass. The resulting pictures capture the action moments fluidly. Cheers!

Doing draft research earlier in the year I came across two names that were in the NT academy. 

Ricky Mentha and Clay Shadforth. Could be one of these two.

I haven't been able to ascertain if either are part of our NGA, or any names for that matter.

Bailey Laurie has completely trimmed down. There have certainly been talk that he's been carrying some puppy fat, but looks like he's worked incredibly hard this off season.

Taj Woewodin looks in ridiculous shape for 20 year old kid.

You are certainly correct, it's Ricky Mentha.

@Nascent

Gippsland Power

Ricky Mentha: X-Factor is the best way to describe Mentha. The boy from the Northern Territory loves a goal and doesn’t just rely on his forward craft to impact on the field. Mentha is an electric player who pounces on the loose ball inside 50 and can daze opponents on the fly. At 180cm, he’s also able to generate run and drive through the corridor and present as an agile midfielder at times. A lot of polish to be added, but it’s hard to miss him with his engaging style of footy.

No such luck, no press pass for the devil. All the result of the glass. I had to find a descent hole in the fence that gave me a clear view without cyclone wire. The guy on the gate was not going to entertain letting me in.

Wouldn’t another player in the mould of Aaron Davey just make us all feel better about the complete schemozzle we made of the finals last year. Chances that good don’t come around often.

Great photos as usual. Thanks 666

Rivers looks like he has zero fat on him, Woey as well. Intensity is high.

I know it's just December, but the boys look like they've come back in great knick.

What's that saying about no premierships are won in preseason, but they can certainly be lost due to a bad summer.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. 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,
