  • 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.

Well in all the talk this week of some West Coast player...I think its Morton, or Judd or something. Look who ever he is people seem to think he is an ok player. But somehow everyone seems to have missed what is no doubt the biggest acquisition in football history. His name is John Meesen!

In his three years at the crows his stats are amazing. Let’s all take a look back...

In round 21 he set Football Park alight with what was touted as the best first game of the century. With an unprecedented 4 kicks 2 handballs and 2 of the best marks you will see, Meesen was a firm favourite for the Brownlow. Many say they heard Leigh Mathews scream "Jesus that the best kid I've ever seen...makes Vossy look like a 6 year old girl." The question was...would this goliath be able to do it again?

Well the simple answer is yes! In his next week with a 1 kick 1 handball 3 hitout match against the Bulldogs he became the premier ruckman of the comp. He set up the victory with what some people called, "Magic like abilities." Many say they saw shades of Polly Farmer…most say they saw so much better.

It was then found out that this man could not only play but could draw as well. People around the Facebook community simply couldn’t believe their eyes at Meesen’s stunning drawings of Penis’s with arms. Worthy of Da Vinci praise this boy has many talents

And now my good Demon friends...THE CROW HAS LANDED! Does this mean a premiership this year...Yes! Does it mean another 5 after that...Yes! So lets all sing the song. It’s a grand old flag....

I have seen some crap threads in my time (and even started some), but this takes the cake

Why thank you Magic. In all the madness of Trade week and good old TJ leaving it was time we had some fun! If I took the cake then I'll wear that with pride.

I say spot on!

In five years, we will be saying things like "Wow, Judd's best years really were behind him", and "who'd have thought at the time that Meesen was the biggest name traded in the 2007 period", and probably "Two flags, four All Australians and a Brownlow - is John Meesen the best player of his generation?"

It sure was light on.

Crying over Judd still, and TJ, awww.

They've moved on, we should to.

If the jumper isn't enough to barrack for, then what about the blokes wearing 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 27, 29, 32, 34, 36, 45.

Exciting numbers those.

Yep, I remember that game.

He jogged on across open space to join the game on the wing, where the ball came within twenty seconds of him arriving.

He was caught flat-footed and was second to the contest.

Then made up for it by laying a crunching tackle and reclaiming the ball.

which, under pressure, he handpassed to nowhere in particular, for it to be scooped up by on opponent.

Not long after he was benched and I'm honestly not sure he got more than 20 mins game time.

So he didn't have a great first game, but it's also another one of those stories we can think back on how Daniher kept giving young guys only half a chance, and reassure ourselves that the club maed the right decision.

Getting back to the original thread here, can we not pretend the club was placing any more importance on this deal than they did? An interesting ruck prospect with great endurance and not at bottom age, for pick 37. A good trade, a useful piece of list-balancing, and cheap as chips.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
