  • 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.

I reckon 10,000 or less. I remember in 1997 playing west coast at optus and there were like 6000 people there and we got thrashed. I never thought we'd be in that position again. Everyone will have a crack at us in the media for not turning up and I bet the snow jokes come out. Does anyone give us a chance? I know freo did well against the cats but that was on there ground. I for one will be there. Not sure why exactly, maybe cause I've played for the membership

10k would be pathetic, but wouldnt surprise me - the fans have seen NOTHING from the team this year not preseason, not practice games, not regular season. And i for one am getting a little confused with what exactly Bailey is trying to execute, and what makes him so sure that even if he gets it right its a premiership game plan - fuckin over possessing the football HAS NEVER WORKED EVER EVER EVER EVER.

It like Neil Balme is coaching us again. :unsure:

I guarantee you Harvey already has his team ready to zone off and smash us when we play that pissy precision football and arent up to it.

Ill go, but id like to see Bailey throw his plan C or B out there for the first half and see how we go - the teams confidence is shot by the time Bailey has realised his plan isnt working it is very transparent to opposition coaches.

16k. They'll give tickets away to the Chinese and inflate the numbers.

We are in with a slight chance, only because Freo aren't much better. But Farmer seems to come alive when he plays us....maybe he could get sick before next weekend. Anyway I feel a WIN

As I said, 6,000.

And looking for a reason? Look at Bailey. No idea.

Strangely I will be there - and you know, the Melbourne FC need to get Bailey to say that we will be playing one on one accountable football. The club needs to market "a line in the sand" just like Hawthorn did a couple of years ago - and from that point on Hawthorn improved. It needs to encourage a real physical, tough game against the Dockers

How about the selectors give us some excitement and something to look forward to for those that want to go to the game?

Out - Bruce, Robertson

In - Maric, Valenti

i'll be there, but the way Freo played vs Geelong we'll be 6 goals down before we realise the game has started.

Don't forget C Connelly coached Freo previously - he may give us something - but then again MFC don't have a Pavlich... had a Farmer...Chisolm...Daniher...Gilbert...and Simmonds.

    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,
