    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.

G'day fellow Demons Supporters!

I'm absolutely furious! :angry:

The game was that bad that I had to leave at half time!

I felt really sad about it cause its the first time I had ever done that. :unsure:

My brothers were also fed up and wanted to leave.

I have no idea how the Demons can play so disgracefully after really playing well the last two weeks.

Neale Daniher's sacking is inevitable now.....

GO DEMONS IN 2008?

The question mark over 'Go Demons 2008' is imperative. Kids walk away from clubs thanks to displays like that.

There goes membership and sponsorship dollars - as well as merchandise and club function support.

I doubt I'll attend next week - I'm not going to the effort of reserving a seat.

I have no interest in this club for the moment - at the very least.

yep need keep going and trying to give the boys a lift

was terrible and we are all filthy but need to support the team when they are down, this is the main difference between supporters and barrackers, we pay money to see our club week in week out, even if we are bottom of the ladder.

yep what a waste of time - left 20 min mark of the last and wish id bailed sooner. Not a fan of the early departure, but the insipid crap that they dished up warranted it.

how the hell were we not aware that richmond would come out firing? Brown back, winless, hungry, geez. What a debacle.

Will be there next week, but sometimes i really get the impression that we care more than they do. How many players will really hurt from that peformance? THey should have their pay docked.

Any why on earth did danniher play flippin' yze? It's not rocket science - lose key forward, replace with someone equally able bodied, not someone struggling with fitness, a gammi groin and a foot shorter. Sorry if this has already been said in another post, ive just signed on and this is my first port of call.

I'm all for that, but we lost to the BOTTOM, WINLESS team. Not lost, we were smashed, Down by 64 points at half time. We weren't going to win at that stage. I have not beef with any Melb supporter that chose to leave. The players did not hold up there end of the bargain.

I dont want to hear excuses tonight. We are a terrible football team at the moment. Leaves me thinking we overachieved last year. I'd even take the devils advocate role and suggest that Daniher is not the problem. The list obviously needs reviewing too.

I'm absolutley lost for words. :angry:

I walk out of movies half way if I'm not enjoying them...

I go to the football for entertainment. They were failing to entertain me, and I couldn't see it getting much better.

No excuse for that performance MFC, cannot blame injuries, cannot blame game plans, had a good team on the field, just a plain woeful effort. Typcial MFC culture, win a game or two and think that it will keep coming easy. Shocking, no wonder membership is so low

Im not one to leave early, needed to [censored] at 10 mins in to the last and copped a barrage on the way to the toilets, then copped a barrage on the way back to my seat, last time i sit in the middle of the Tiger army, they are a bunch of ferals.

:lol: I had my legs firmly crossed for most of the last. Shouldn't have had that 3/4 time pick me up. True though getting dissed by supporters who's team has won half a game out of 11 is a [censored]?

You are obviously not a leader! The captain doesn't leave the sinking ship. I watched it all and kept up my barracking. That's the role of a REAL SUPPORTER. We played so badly in the first half but you don't give it up even though it hurts.

i was watching it on telly and could have switched it on another channel but nar thought id watch my dees battle till the end.. not did they put up much of a fight

I stayed....and took my medicine. However I can sure understand those that left.

I thought i could even stomach this season if we put together a few wins, after C'wood I thought we were on our way.

Now where the f@ck are we?

I go to every game and and have been a member for 8 straight years, but i too left at half time. I understand we are playing for nothing, but i do not have to tolerate such an insipid effort from the coaches and players. We are a disgraceful club and im reaching breaking point.

That performance can only be described as a disgrace and it highlighted the problems we have at the club.

All we supporters want in a season like this is a solid effort and positive signs for the future and we got the complete opposite.

When are we going to see action taken!?????

G'day Fellow Demons Supporters!

I don't really care what other people think. :rolleyes:

Besides, I was more than happy to stay for the whole match. It was my brothers that wanted to leave!

If anything, I think the Demon players should be ones taking a good hard look at themselves. Paid up members like myself should not have to put up with such gutless performances time and time again.

Why should I accept mediocrity??? :wacko:

    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,
