  • 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.

6 - Holland

5 - White

4 - Jones

3 - Travis "I'm Back" Johnstone

2 - Davey

1 - Green

Honourable mentions to Nathan Brown and Byron Pickett. I think you will find Nathan Brown did a lot of things behind the play and in the last quarter he new he was running out of puff and was looking for other options rather than hogging the ball himself. A really good effort from a player that gets bagged a lot but always gives his all for our club.

Wow - winning really rocks doesn't it????

Couldn't agree more about Nathan Brown. He is unfairly criticized on this forum for his apparent lack of skills. I watched his kicking closely tonight and he found his target on almost all occasions. His courage has never been in doubt.

Wow you rated brown over trapper? i didn't think brown played that well, will have to take more notice when i watch the replay, this is no insult to you but i just dont think i noticed him very much. :)

Actually ,I know it doesn't mean much but the HeraldSun's unbiased journalist gave Brown BOG !

I don't know how anyone can leave Jones or Bell out of the votes.

Both were exceptional, and had big jobs to do.

Robbo was also very good, especially when pushing up the ground. He wasn't his 'selfish' self, as some would suggest.

i didnt see the game live but watched the replay this morn, i didnt get to watch it with my full attention but from what i saw jones davey and holland were our 3 best while the other 3 come from johnstone, robertson, brown, white and bell...

the thing with davey was simply that he put himself in the right positions, he crumbed well and he chased hard. jones was at the bottom of everything, and invariably got it out, one of his best games for the club - and topped it off with a great crumbing goal, and holland was our best big man i thought, marking everything, although i thought robertson, newton and the skip all looked alright up forward, even if skip looked like he'd left his contacts at home...

johnstone is an architect, and this game reaffirmed he is more valuable than bruce when both are playing on top of their games, if we are to trade for for picks i would rather bruce go, but if trapper can play like this all next year, and bruce get his legs right and his kicking up to scratch well we could end up having a very good year.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
