    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.

Reported on SEN that Sheeds has being sacked by the Essendon board.

Look out Terry.

Do we want him? I wouldn't mind old Sheeds.

did they have a source? and is he gone now or end of season?

if he is gone, someone should be round there this arvo with a contract for him to sign...

i think we really need to get a kick on now. i cant see him going to freo, but melb and carlton are both looking for coaches as well. for some reason i dont see him at carlton, whereas i could see him becoming the new face of melbourne...i really hope we chase him if he is interested...

Puts the methods of the MFC in new light.. yes Danners was probably shown teh writing on the wall, but he left, wasnt sacked. MFC allowed Danners to coach his team one last game !! These guys are uncerremoniously culled.

yep Id have Sheeds.

I think he actually took them to four cups......

Astonishing really that this could happen especially since they are still technically in the finals hunt :o !!!

After getting the arse before the end of the year he will be looking for a way to stick it up the EFC board!!

For the last month we've been hearing about how he will see out the year and they will make a decision then about whether to re-new his contract.... EFC board have treated him with a total lack of respect and have kicked him in the guts!

And you wonder why The Bummers and The Filth are so dear to our hearts?!?!

I think we would be stupid not to at least talk to Sheeds and see what his thoughts are on our list and what he could bring to the club.... The man has been the best thing that happened to The Bummers since WWII and their loss could well be our gain!

I'm not convinced that he IS the man for the job, but with a fresh start and a decent midfield to work with, the bloke could be quietly excited!!

I still don't know all the facts. Press conference at 12.00pm.

Look, I didn’t think that he would be coach next season, but why not let him coach out the season, and let him do it with dignity. I think he deserves to go out the way that he wants.

If they announce that the club and Sheedy came to an agreement that he will coach the season out, I will accept that, but if the decision is effective immediately, I won't be happy.

This is unprecedented in the modern era, someone coaching for 27 years. Everyone here saw the reception Neale Daniher got in his last game, Sheedy more than deserves a similar farewell. I hope he gets it.

Unbelievable! It was only 2 nights ago that the Essendon Chairman came out of a board meeting and said that the coaching position hadn't even been discussed. He also explicity stated that Sheedy would coach out the year. Unbelievably disrespectful to Sheedy!

While I doubt he will coach another team, we must at least speak to him and find out if he would be interested. It isn't everyday a 4 time premiership coach is on the market.

If Sheedy announced that he wished to continue coaching, i would keep a close eye on the Tigers over the coming weeks!!

As said earlier, Melbourne needs to get their arse into gear, in order to capitalise on the situation. Sending a contract over to him this arvo is a bit early. Give him time to see where he's at. Send the contract over to him tomorrow morning, with Gardner delivering it to his front door!!!

If the MFC could sign up Sheedy, watch the membership level hit record heights next year, despite this year from hell.

Completely agree with that. Stinks of knee-jerk reaction to me. I'd be filthy if I were an Essendon supporter.

    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

    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.
