  • 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.

Thats a pretty good assessment. Yze_Magic posted there a bit a year ago.

Is there some kind of 'code of ethics' or similiar whereby Demonlanders who post on "ology are hereby despised, shunned or whatever?

As far as I am concerned Demonlanders are welome at Demonology, just as I believe Demonologists are welcome here. We all support the same team!

Well I left that forum about 6 months ago, too many serious twats who seem to think they are far superior to regular demonlanders...

EDIT: What a 300th! :P

I agree totally with Tim. It's only a small number of the fringe posters on both sites who stir up a bit of aggro from time to time. They are best ignored because we're here for the same cause - to support the MFC.

well said WJ but an interesting point here is that in general it is always going to be just a small fringe group that give a larger majority their traits. take a random cross section of melbourne according to football team they support. ok there might be some trends but in general people are people. it just so happens that mfc get the upper class tag while richmond get the scum.

in all honesty i love the upper class tag. since when has it ever been an insult to call someone wealthy and cultured? pfft. collingwood however are a bunch of no brainers, and the perfect example of this was their supporters behaviour in relation to the umpiring last week. they clearly had no idea of the rules.

I post relatively the same amount on both... I found 'ology much earlier than Demonland so that probably influenced my preference early on. Both sites have their pluses in different areas. I find Demonland gets the breaking news about Ins and Outs and player news quicker, and it has more in depth Sandy coverage - where as I find 'ology can have more in depth discussion on more serious topics, as well as an older group of posters who cover a lot of historical information. Tim_ and others have created a wealth of historical data on the Demonology site which is undoubtedly more than is available anywhere else on the web - and for this he should be congratulated.

The site was down earlier today due to a Hard Disk failure wich they fixed reasonably quickly.

I think they are rebuilding the server at the moment.

The company owner is a collingwood supporter so Demon considerations are not given high priority. <_<

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
