  • 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.


NON-MFC: Round 05

Wouldn't be surprised if Bevo wasn't coaching next week. He needs to go some kind of spiritual retreat or something. Not be coaching.

This Bulldog team, despite having a horrible backline, has way too much talent in the midfield and up forward to be this shizen. Bevo needs to go. Or stay. I don’t really care to be honest. 

But they are not that Talented…

Bontempelli has talent, everyone else is way below his standards

Pretty much the whole league is below the Bont's talent

Incorrect. Bont, Libba and McRae (why is he in the VFL) plus English is an A midfield. Inside 50 they have JUH, Naughton and Weightman. Plus Dale is excellent at half back. 
They have a list good enough to not lose to Essendon. End of story.

When have they been in the Top 4?

You are listening to the Media, who have this elevated opinion of the Footscray Midfield. They are continually wrong 

The Bulldog Midfield is the epitome of Downhill Skier. 
look at what we did to them in ‘21. Absolutely Tore them to shreds without a wimper, and what has happened since then?

Bevo should resign on Monday 

i would take Bont and JUH

Naughton is a fraud. 7 years. What a joke

Most definitely underachieving for the list they have. Bevo has just been there too long. He and the Doggies need a change.

This situation with Liberatore collapsing towards the end of the game is very interesting. He and the club are claiming it was a tweaked ankle, but the vision clearly shows him being very groggy, and then collapsing into the ground. Parish was clearly concerned about him, as was Duryea. He took 2 hard knocks in the last quarter.

Surely the independent AFL doctor needs to investigate that.

Bevo has never finished top 4 at the end of H&A. 

Their defense has never been good enough to finish top 4 and that’s the truth. A strong defense can make up for lackluster performances, which every side has during the season. Hell we got destroyed on Thursday night but we still kept our opponent to under 100 points. 
 

Having said that, they’re good enough to make the 8, but I doubt they will.

Bevo is a very overated coach! 1 extremely flukey premiership, not a great media performer either, footascray almost cooked!

There will be a mass exodus from the Dogs if they keep losing this year. 
This is a Club who lost a home game to Meth Coke last year

I tried to post this last night but for some reason it was on hold.

I did t watch one second of the Dogs vDrugs game but seriously when is the blowtorch from the media going to focus on Beveridge and the Footscray “culture”??

Essendon Fans Blaming Umpires page on FB a bit redundant at the moment. They are getting a Carlton like run.

Bevo gets off light as so many ex Dogs in the media.

The defence saved our arzes so often through the middle of the season during 2021 it wasn't funny.

Didn't realise this. No way he is still coaching if they don't win in 2016.

    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.
