  • 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.

Missed last week - had planned to trek up to Canberra but my son had a footy lightening premiership day so we stayed down here for that - they were a lot more successful than the Demons!

Other than that, I have been to every Melbourne game for the last 8 years - missed a few before that when I was having babies. I go to the Sydney game each year and try to get in a leat one other interstate game.

The numbers are dropping off so you have a fair point - no point saying you support the club if you can't be bothered turning up.

Booked my seats for this Sat pm way back in early March - still have to go no matter how bad things get - I am a SUPPORTER not just a barracker - there is a difference!

yes, i am a full mcc member and pay an extra 70 dollars to be a mfc member, and go to all games. all i'm saying is that it doesn't achieve much to tell people who go to games, to go to games.

but i like your spirit, keep it up

I'm a full member of both and pay for my redlegs membership too - i'm sure the club can use the cash!

i know they can, and i do my best. buying all merchandise etc. but isn't the easiest for a uni student saving for an overseas trip on a casual wage, also trying to move out.

Who said I was preaching to you?

[censored], is everyone on this retarded?

I just wanted to get some togetherness & pump ourselves up for the following next 4 games & for next year.

Sorry everyone's a sad sack, & all you wanna do is pick fights.

Grow up..!

Or you could try having some respect for people that have been posting here for ages whilst you have only joined today.

If you'd been on here for longer you would actually find that NO, we are not all retarded.

New posters are always welcomed, but have some respect. :rolleyes:

I can beat that. I am an MFC member, go to all MFC games in Melbourne and I stay till the end.

I stay to the end of every game too! I love my Demons!

Plus, I find it easier to get home through traffic as most Melbourne supporters are already at home by that time & off the road...

Yep go to every Victorian game and the occasional interstate (apart from this year).

As soon as I rocked up for the Roos V Dees game (3 weeks ago) I knew we'd lose due to the whopping 2,000 MFC fans that rocked up. Its not good enough! No wonder we cop [censored] from other clubs.

Heres hoping for a better turn out this Saturday Night. Make the Dome our home this week! (well it is a home game ;) )

Don't get on his case cause he is new. He is aloud to say whatever he wants. That is the point of this isn't it.

I am still new but I have found most people on here are verywelcome to your ideas, thoughts, comments. I also get ticked off when people have a go for posting their thoughts. I have read through almost every single thread I can find thats interesting (much to bosses displeasure) and found far to many members quick to jump on someones belief. How about you show some respect to someone new.

Thanks for reading.

Look everyone!!! This guy makes sense!!! Not like you other lot..!!!

It's true! We have fans but they never seem to make our games!!

But unfortunately we will not have the crowd. AGAIN!

I remember a game vs. Freo at the 'G' - They had the crowd. It's just sad..!

TELL EVERYONE TO MAKE AN EFFORT! I KNOW I'LL BE THERE!

Welcome to Demonland bWell.

I think you will find that a large majority of posters here are members who attend most games, and are as passionate as yourself.

I haven't missed a game played in Victoria for over 5 years (missed that one because I was away on school camp!) and I've been a member for 8. I go even when I'm sick, and even while on crutches.

Most posters are the same, they love the club and want to see it succeed. Unfortunately, there aren't enough of us.

Its about togetherness.

Its about showing support for the fellow supporter.

Don't cheer, embrace.

Love the club, show it.

Don't make excuses.

I know 90% of the people on here go and are prob members. But no doubt youve got dodgey fellow Melbourne supporter friends.

GET THEM INVOLVED and re-build this great club.

I have only just joined the ranks of the MFC members as i am an ex Fitzroy supporter and I flat out refused to support an interstate team. I lost interest in footy for a long time, last year i started going to games again and got sucked into the atmosphere. I have always had a soft spot for Melbourne, being born & bred in Melbourne and i thought logically the Demons would be the best team for me so i purchased a 16game membership for this year. Not once have i regretted it. I would get a Red Legs but have recently brought a house and the budget is tight. No matter how they play i stay till the end and at the start of each match i belt out the theme song as loud as i can.

Just another quick one. If you want to bag anyone, bag the cheer squad. The redheads have been absolutly dismall this year. Any game at the G i sit close to them and i cannot beleive how often they sit on their hands doing nothing to get spectators into the game, anyone else noriced this?

Thanks mate. Appreciate it.

There is heaps of Melbourne supporters out there - But none of them go to games!

I wasn't sitting here having a crack at the 'posters'...

What's with everyone here? Everyone's so exselic...

I sit in MCC so I don't really see the cheer squad. Altho I don't hear them either. Maybe your right.

Everyone is a bit sensitive because we're having a terrible season and we've been copping it left right and centre in the media.

I can understand why people get annoyed when someone new comes along and presumes they don't buy memberships or go to games. When you question someone's support (even unintentionally), they get defensive.

I assure you that you won't find a person on this board who doesn't love this club passionately. We're all bordering on tragic actually :unsure:

Maybe have a bit of a read of other threads and of our Code of Conduct and you'll get the feel for this place. I'm sure you'll soon become addicted. :)

Yes. I have & I agree.

We are the oldest club but we have only a few at games...

It doesn't make sense & it makes us all look stupid.

How will kids want to support Melbourne if no-one else does?

Out of the last 5 games, which ones' were you at?

Im sure he wouldn't have started the thread unless he went to games mate.

Even if he just goes Victorian. Still a damn good effort in my eyes.

Back off someone trying to give it a go on here.

    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.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
