    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.

My daughters Jumper, what number should she have?

Recommended Posts

HI guys,

after a couple of weeks of pretty hard times, i would like to ask for all you beautiful melbourne people to help me decide what Number i should get for My daughter on her new jumper? Without being to self indulgent, She is 17 months old and is the apple of my eye, and she is and will be a Melbourne girl for life. This week against Geelong is the game that will decide who becomes her favourite demon. The players dont realise it, but what happens on Sunday at Geelong will result in one player securing their biggest fan for life.

I want it to be someone who hurts for their club, who shows courage and passion, and who shows strength in times of adversity..

I am asking for the people of Demonland to help decide..It's Demon Idol..vote for who you think is worthy of having their number on my daughters jumper for the next 10 years!

Holland is my 5 year old son's favourite player and there is nothing I can do to change his mind. I cringe when people ask him and had to quickly retreat when he asked in a very loud voice at the quarter time huddle of the Zebra practice game at Casey "Why is Holland playing for the Zebras Daddy?"

As for my choice, I would go for 6 (Bate) or 14 (Dunn). I still have high hopes for these two.

You cant go past no 3. Think of the history and champions that have worn (and is wearing now) - Henry Coles, Gerard Healy, Garry Lyon, Clint Bizzell and now the boy with the million dollar smile, Clint Bartram.

Somehow I don't think Dutchy will be around for another 10 years!

He should be though.

Not playing him is the reason we've been smashed in the first two weeks!

Big Ben :wub:

Actually if I was placing a number on a young kids back right now I'd go with number 1. Hopefully he breaks the curse on that number.

He'll come good :)

That's nothing!

In my younger years, I decided that Michael Clark was my favourite player (and you thought Dutchy was bad!)... that was until I saw him at a function with both arms in a cast. When I asked him how he did it, his answer was "on the toilet". Still to this day it is one of the most disturbing player memories I have.

31

31 would be another option not because of Wheatly though was Barassi's number! Other reasons for 31

3 (Bartram) and 1(Buckley) = 31

3 (Bartram) x 10 (Morton) + 1 (Buckley) = 31

13 (Yze) reversed = 31 (Yze needs to turn it around)

    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,
