  • 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.

All aboard the reality bus!

I can't make up my mind and the only cheap seats are on the grassy hill - does anyone know if that is Hillbilly Hill at the Adelaide Oval?

I would love to see us fix up Port as I do with any oppo!

Have they changed much?

I could tell you about a bus trip to Sydney in the late 80s organised by the cheer squad but it would most likely be my last post on DL

Just got a seat for $75 to sit in the nose bleeds behind the goals at the river end.

Free for MFC members or $35 for the same seat Vs Adelaide in Gather Round 5 days later.

Stupid question, but what does a GA ticket cost at the G this year.  My tickets are also behind the goals at the river end for my family and in my opinion ticket prices are way too expensive in Adelaide.

Not worth the price, but convenient, comfortable and near facilities and bar/food/vendor-outlets and dunnies (although the latter have been well-hidden in the past). Lots of afternoon sun this time of the year, looking down the ground to the north-west. No, it's not the Southern Stand (MCG) by any means, but still good for individual occupation. Quieter, too, amid a stadium surrounded by the thousands of biased, overly-sensitive and thus rampantly noisy Port supporters with Crows supporters coming a close second. When we play there, Demon supporters tend to assemble providing a civilized collective of applauding reasonableness, good taste, civility and manners, and appreciative wins (depending on the umpires' moods and intents across the game).

GA is around $27 at the MCG.

$75 is absolutely expensive for a run of the mill home and away game.

Take your family of four with no concessions, parking and snacks and booze and you'd be lucky to be under 400 bucks.

Sheesh

Sheesh 

There are 5 of us, $268, for one game of footy and we are in the cheapest seats you can buy to reserve a seat.  I really think that 15 and 16 year olds should be included in the family ticket.  

But when all is said and done, I will enjoy every minute of being there.

    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.
