  • 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.


Demon Shop closing from 9th February to 1st March

On a slightly related note, and because I didn’t want to start an entirely new topic - it’s time that we gave NB the flick. They’ve been great over a sustained period, but if you look at the range they have produced this year, it is boring, dull and unimaginative. The off-field range is literally just a navy canvas with patches stuck on it and a red zipper where appropriate. If that’s where we are at with merch, then we really don’t understand branding. 
 

while I’m on it…we have stuck the MFC monogram on the jumper. There was a thought when the logo was redesigned tht the MFC monogram would be what the Yankees NY in respect of city wide identity. It may have been a pipe dream, but sticking it on the the jumper demonstrates we haven’t given up on the idea. However, take a look at the merchandise on the Demon shop. Barely another item using the solo monogram. Not a single baseball hat that is just a monogram. It shows we really don’t get it at all. The idea and thought is there, the execution is appalling

Of course she's good 'picket'...

You don't have her level of sustained success if you're not.

Ahm Gary Glitter??

I said sustained success 'picket'...Glitter has had nowhere near the career.

She's been topping the charts for over 15 years now.

Personally I don't like stadium shows at all...much prefer more intimate venues with musicians really playing, taking chances and not just regurgitating the record.

She''s not my cup of tea is Taylor but the girl has got a load of talent.

This is how it looks today…

The large brown area is where the stage will be.

The MFC admin staff have to relocate and work from home and/or Casey and/or AAMI for 10 days. No functions will be held during this time. If a room that has windows which overlook the ground does have to be used during the lead-up to the concerts, the windows will be ‘blacked out.’ There are huge black curtains already erected between the concourse and the ground level seating. All this because Mz Swift demands total secrecy. She doesn’t want the details of her spectacle to be known before the event.

As for the Demon Shop, I was there today and asked about them shutting, and it seems one reason is because it’s not worth opening when there’ll be so few people wandering in and out of the ‘G. (Many people who visit the ‘G incorporate a visit to the Demon Shop.) I don’t know why they’re shutting for such a long time though.

That's where they've taken the drop-in wicket out. The main stage is at the city end.

Thanks Ben

Out off curiosity why are there no seats available on the mid level of the Northern Stand. Seems a massive area if that's the lighting and sound control area.

What time frame are there no functions?  The Coterie Season Launch is advertised as being in the MCC Dining Room on 22 February.

Whoever runs and whoever located the Demon Shop where it is  have no idea of business principles. 

they should have negotiated and got a demountable ( one exists near Gate 3)  Surely they could have one located near the MCC members. 

Just  seems as though they are taking a holiday as it is too long a break. 

Will they open up for replacement time like  a Sale afternoon to get more merch sold? 

Also why didn’t they let fans know about it weeks ago so they could cash in before the shut  down?  Too much effort ? 

Can’t believe MFC have to move from their office spaces. That’s ridiculous.

What about $$$ compensation from the MCC also to Admin and Demon Shop? 

Rant over but Pi.. off back to USA Tay Tay.

Demon shop is moving everything to Casey so maybe they are planning a "pop up" for the 18th. I would ring the shop and confirm.

Actually when posting previously I eodeted if that may be possible as Casey is used most frequently, big day on 18th it is a good move under the circumstances.

well done DSHop.

It looks to me that every bay has seating available in the Northern stand (apart from those behind the stage). It's comparatively emptier on the map compared to the Southern stand due to most of the Northern stand only having three levels for seating (apart from P42-45 in the MCC Members), compared to the Southern stand's four.

I know the admin have been told to move out by her security team to. Doubt they'd give 2 hoots. 

Do they know that we are a business trying to run things and make money? 

Imagine if a singer who was performing came to travis's team and said get out I'm playing.

If the option was to go to a Taylor Swift concert or cut off a finger, I’m losing a finger. 

Just another yank scrubber who likes taking her clothes off in front of millions to hide the fact she is no good and milking aussies for heaps of dollars

a teenager rang up the radio. said she got tickets at $1200. She's got tickets for all 3 concerts. Her family of 5 are all going to first one.  and ... she's been to 4 previous swift concerts (presumably overseas).

now 7 tickets at $1200 is a heck of a lot of spondulaks. even 1 ticket at $1200 is big time, and considering most attendees are young teens the bank of the parent must be working overtime

in times of inflation and thrift it all seems way over the top

    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,
