  • 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.

Feeling nervous, Dean Bailey?

CC is as dedicated to our cause as ANYONE. Even all the anonymous internet heroes on this site!

I was fortunate enough to hear him speak at a function tonight. He spoke for a good ten minutes and I got a STRONG feeling he is 110% dedicated to sending us back where we belong.

He is a great appointment to our club and a great right hand man for Bailey.

From what I've heard tonight Bailey isn't nervous at all and believes in the road we are going down 110%. Give him some time and just accept our position at the moment. We won't be there forever let me assure you of that.

Now is the time to stick fat and support the club. All the Bailey knockers will eat their words - I have no doubt of that.

I hope that road isn't the Hume Highway, and we end up in West Sydney.

And if Bailey has the full support of the board, he's in trouble. :lol:

Perspective :

You employ a Builder to put together that wonderful house youve always wanted. You know the ground's a bit shakey and much is necessary before you really get stuck into it. Lots of prelimanry works etc..

So you want to sack the builder when he's only half way though demolishing the 'shack" that sits upon your lot ?? <_< :rolleyes:;)

I just have this feeling he has a team of sparkies, and he's trying to turn them into plumbers. They hear what he says, they just can't do it.

Heard him speak, ay? Whereabouts? Don't tell me...I love surprises - anyway, I bet you ordered the double parma for $19.90. Not bad for a Monday night. Tell me, did the kids eat for free???

What the hell did you expect him to say??? That we're shot to pieces and have no hope this year? Even Cam Bruce assures us that we can the finals - Maybe HE should borrow by Kubrick collection, seasons 1, 2 and 3!!

I hope we don't have to wait another 10 years for the re-building of this team to begin.

PS Kramer? - these pretzels are making me thirsty.

belzebub59 - I don't want to misquote CC but he did mention the amount of young talent on our list, and the fact that our older guys are guiding them very well. He mentioned that we are in a new era now and the need to stick with the club. CC is a fantastic addition to our club and has real passion.

All the heroes on this site can slag off our greats like Neitz (300+ games) and Yze (250+ games) but these guys are leading the way and the spirit amongst the boys seems fantastic. I get the strong feeling that once we click with Bailey we be very strong again. He believes in what he is doing and his vision must be encouraging for the players.

Don't forget that although we haven't won a flag, only a few teams have been in the finals more than us in the past 10-15 years or so. I know you (belzeu59) will stick fat but I worry about some of the other battlers on this site who don't realise that we are a real football club with real people doing their bloody best to turns things around.

Our new CEO needs to be given a chance. Get behind the club, we need fairweather supporters to become real supporters.

Anyone posting on this site who hasn't purchased a membership yet is more gutless than the players they slag off. Those who do this know who they are. Get to the G on Sunday as I know those involved with the club will be busting their balls to beat Carlton. FACT.

Thanks H.. Will be watching this game with a lot of interest. I agree and think CC is a marvellous adition to the club.. indeed I think there is much in place that warrants real optimism..just not much will manifest overnight.

I think its great that the stawlwarts are geeing the kids up. Just concerns me they arent doing themsleves much justice on the turf.

We'd all like result today..or at latest tomorow.. many just dont get it that it will be years rather than weeks until it all "clicks"..well at least Clicks properly.

Im sure some want Bails to crack it.. to give a public lashing ...but really thats the last thing we want.. the coach to show anything but resolute steadfastness.

we're in the middle of a "quiet storm"... and we need to ride it out.

Am lookign forward to the Blues.. am looking forward to what ever he has planned for /after round 6.. am lookign forward to an end of season rejig.. ...just no so enthralled about a lot of in between !! :rolleyes:

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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
