  • 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.. not really...lol..as some really didnt register much..

But il mention those that impacted..one way or the other..I may miss a couple.. but that only means i didnt see much of them.

Benny.. was in amongst it early.. definitely providing a target and good cover to others . Like it seems everyone.. he got to have abit of a run around contributing quite well.. til he exited the game

Rivers... seems pumped.. ran it out well.. linked well.. defended with vigour.. is on his game..and a very niggled bloke at times..lol.. Id be personally very surprised if he didnt start in R & B at teh cattery

Aussie.. he's a goer.. I think in some ways he adjusting still toa game less about pure skill and mor eabout now, now , now. but he's getting there.. has very nice body balance..and that inherent intuition we come to admire in the inddigenous . i thin a few of his family or mates wer ethere today which was great !! :)

Meeson.. I thought he did Ok today.. He strikes me as possibly a 2nd ruck. maybe more time and mentoring migh timprove his effect but he taps way better than jamar.

Jamar.. a pretty fair game today.. bt he does this at this level and then gets alittel out of sorts and lacks competitveness at AFL... not sure what yo do with Russian.. Good pair of hands though and he does thin ok when linking.. I summise its the pace of AFL that catches him a little.

Ooze.. good..not brilliant.. a little selfish and blazais !! probably in top half of the team today...he should have shone though !!

Wheels.. a bit of this..a bit of that. I dont hink he's really 100% yet. played well in bursts ..a nice goalwith a bit of polish too :)..but concernsme he gives so many yards at times to his man. I know Wheels likes to play off of them a bit.. but you cant afford to at AFL level.. you can get away with murder at VFL..he did today !! Thats my view..others may have seen another 79 running around..thats Ok..lol

Martin.. didnt really notice him much at all..make of that what you will.

Juice.. Some good leading.. and marking.. some butter fingers too. I think he's better in red and blue, but for the moment he needs to learn more hunting and gathering. He does do the extra things. I thought he did Ok today wiothout being brilliant.. again to gt up to tthe r and b guernsey you need t be brilliant at this level for mine

Valenti.. good.. I like him.. has a lot of footy nouse..concerns me he may get sat on!! lol But he does gt the ball..and the ball does get him...did today as well.

CJ. ? I had to actually look for him..say it all really.. he's not ready yet to reclaim any Demon game

Warnock... looks ok at this level.. only ok.. some good spoils.. . This is only 3rd time Ive sem him at TBO.. he was better today. he tries...just not sure if he wil make it. Decisions better today than previous...still much to learn

SPUD.. didnt notice much

and last

Maric.. id have paid entry to watch him today.. He has something... footy smarts.. He was outsized often today..and for the most beat them all. Is quite clever with his body.. and when he gets stronger this WILL be something.!! Some good goals.. he really knows where those sticks are.and really liked his 3rd quarter doubletap mark.. very slick. He played it that way..wasnt luck. Still a little way off AFL debut i fell.. let him find his feet a bit more..gain some real confidece before upping the ante. Sometimes you see some ability watching players.. today I saw a "player" in the making.. a bit rough.. a bit raw..but a gem!!

Yesterday headed down to TBO,

A solid 37 point win by the zebras.

Of the dees players

Jamar did well in the ruck, Was ok around the ground as well, played against Rix.

Meeson - was called the new nico by a supporter, but was ok

Maaric- was great kicked 3 was lively and gutsy. very small but quality. Will nudge davey out of the side a little further down the year!!!

Aussie cant spell his last name! Was ok, in and out of the game, snagged a good goal.

Rivers and whelan were both very good, looked fit and both will be back next week. Rivers hands were good.

Yze - looked a class above everyone else, but a times was a little to cute with some things.

Valenti, turns the ball over a bit, should try to be more of a jake king than a judd. Be in and under and give of the hands to yze and johnson than doing it himself.

C Johnson - his last year on the list i think, gets a lot of it, can be damaging but turns it over a lot.

Warnock was average.

Martin was used down back, at first when we drafted him i was shocked really, but he was pretty good down back, spoiled well and took some good grabs!

    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,
