  • 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.

No one gave that line.

Simply stated he was one of very very few who gave it a go. Look past bias of him please.

Got to drop duds like Robbo, Bell and Jamar. Would be good news for the club.

Great news to show that you can't be completely lazy and self centered player on the MFC (like Robbo)

Bell needs a run at Sandy, he is lost out there and his ok form from last year shouldn't save him for now.

Jamar is pathetic. Play Martin in ruck with White.

At this stage on this forum I think the negative posts towards Miller are a direct response to some of our fellow posters claiming him to be the next messiah. Ok, a slight exaggeration but we've seen people on this board claim him to be our next captain and the answer to our search of a CHF. Clearly both are wrong, he's an ok player who tries hard, everyone almost everyone understands what he is and can appreciate his effort.

It's just hard to take him seriously when he's overrated so drastically.

Yes..no one gave that line.. my writing was pre-emptive. .I didnt want to see it given !!

I really have no bias.. I know I know it may not seem that way..but truly.. I see all as widgets and treat accordingly..if they are useless on a day I call it..if they are uselss in a season..I call it.. if they are terminally useless ..I wont refrain from that either.

If they show effort I will acknowledge. .. I consider no one off limits or no dud beyond praise

There is a diference between a player trying and a player being effective...god knows Miller has proved trying enough.

If I am asked not to exercise bias ...can others show clear appraisal ??

No argument...sign me up !!

possibly...instead of taking umbrage.. and sledging us.. .why not show what one Brad Miller really contributes ?

having a dip is pointless unless it actually results in something.. he's possibily a devil without a cause.. as he certainly cant hold down any position on the filed that I know of !!

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
