  • 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.

I’m with @Binmans PA on our young debutant - no pressure; see ball, get ball. Everyone makes mistakes. Soak it up. As an example, Petts didn’t have the greatest of debut’s, it wasn’t the end of the world and he’s a ripper. 

Celebrate the good things that come your way - all the hours of slogging your guts out until now are for this moment.

100% the best Mullet in footy currently

Reminiscent of the the great mullets of the past - Allen Jakovich Wayne Carey Dermie and garry 'whiskers/Budda' hocking.

ABSOLUTELY!!

We'd have another flag if Melk and/or Petty didn't get injured. 

Aside from having those guys injured right before finals, and Fritter clearly not 100% - it would have been incredibly disruptive for the team to have to continue to move magnets/adapt strategies before/during finals. 

Our forward line is already looking better, even though it's only still settling. Imagine 2-3 months with Petty/McAdam finding rhythm, and then Melk to return in good time to find his feet and form for finals. 

Might not be able to fit them all in.

No sign of WCW on here yet,shes probably on her second pack of fags by now

She was on her second pack of fags at 5am. She’ll be coughing up a lung before the game even starts 😂

Nah, I steered clear of DL this morning; another thread on here last night being the reason. Anyways I’ll just give other threads a wide berth for now and stick to this one… until the first bounce, that is. Then it’s straight to the postgame thread to celebrate a resounding win over the Lions.

We’ve so got this it hurts. 🥳

Agree with those wholeheartedly. For a combination of reasons, he hasn't hit form since the end of 2021. I'm not writing him off and agree there's still value in him, but not in the defensive structure. 

Anecdotally, he also has seemed far more adverse to 'contact' over the past 18 months or so too.

For me Salem has lacked an intensity and hunger in his game since 2021 (though that could be said for several of our players).

I suggest you both watch Salem more closely. He's by far our hardest and best tackler. Opponents really feel it when he squeezes the life out of them with his crunching (but fair) tackles.

Is her full-time job stalking the MFC players 

Nah that’s her part-time job. You see, the trick is to stalk the entire team at the one time thereby freeing up time for other things, for example, my precious chooks. Speaking of, I was at the stove the other day, turned around and this is what I was faced with…

Can't wait. It's so nice to be back at the G. I think the rain will hold off ad it's still school holidays so there hopefully will be a good crowd. 

Please just kick accurately this week. The midfiled battle will be interetsing and hopefully daniher and hipwood have off nights. Don't have Hibbard to stop Cameron so hopefully somoene like McVee can.

also looking foward to seeing what Koltyn can do.

Just get the 4 points demons

I don't think Melk will get back in, and if he does, then we might be in trouble, that will mean there is a lot of injuries, 

In form he gets back in.

Plenty of room to find a seat, support loudly to what should be a cracker. Especially if we belt them. Come on down!

    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,

    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
