  • 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.

Gidday guys just dropping in from Saintsational to discuss the prospect of another forum game with you guys?

Every summer a few of the clubs forums play games of footy against each other at Glenferrie Oval and we were wondering if you guys might like to be first cap off the rank?

The games are purely social event, with everyone welcome to play regardless of sex, age or ability.

They are usually 4 X 25 minute quarters and many of you im sure have played in the past.

They are great fun and represent an excellent chance for supporters to meet each other and have a kick or even just watch as we all 'attempt' to emulate our heroes.

There is also a BBQ area behind the ground and after the match we usually all get together and have a feed and a few beers and have a chat.

So if you are interested in playing, or even just coming along and helping out with goal umpiring, running water or whatever chuck your name down here, im sure someone will take control of the ball on this forum as has been done in the past, but any queries post here and I can respond.

PS...You have beaten us both times we have played so its payback time:-P

Things to bring: A dees jumper/ shirt... sunscreen and water.

The same thread will be posted at demonology also.

The proposed date is October 21...but we can push that back a week or so if more time is needed.

So if your interested chuck your name down.

Cheers,

HD

Count me in for sure, I’d liken myself to a Ricky Petterd type player – got guts, shows pride in the jumper, good skills, built like a skeleton and my lungs are shot. Only difference is I have about 20% of his footballing ability…

I'm in support of it. I really enjoyed the last one we played.... I'm no footy expert but managed to conjour up 3 majors throughout the day.

I'm happy to slot into the same position - forward pocket, and see how we go.

It would be fab if Demonology got involved too - I guess at the end of the day, that's what it's all about!

Right, I've just re-scheduled my flights, I arrive home on November 14th.

I'd love nothing more then to lead the boys into battle, but if the dates don't allow such a thing, then so be it.

HD are there any openings for a game from mid-November onwards?

If there is enough support for an October game then go ahead, and we'll try for another match later in the year.

I'll watch with interest...

    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,
