  • 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.


If you can make it to the G this week and dont show up...

You are not a true supporter of the MFC. Enough said.

Get behind the club when it needs you most.

GO DEES!

Great reward for everyone who went to the G and as only 600 short of 20,000 means MFC does not have to get out the chequebook as would have expected!!

Thanks also to the non MFC supporters who turned up too!!

HINT: MCC and MFC have seen that it is possible to get extra people to games at the G with a bit of no cost incentive like a kick after the game. MFC and Nth Melb games in particular for rest of 2008 should be looked at for such events. Wasn't that hard was it!

Can't be there and will be on full media blackout until the 7.30pm Fox Sports replay of the game.

Fair to say the full media blackout failed miserably with the number of phone calls and texts I got at around 5pm telling me something had gone horribly... right!

It was a great atmosphere Y_M, you should have been there. Never experienced a win like that, a simply amazing comeback.

Persuaded Dork supporting fiance to come along...she loved it, along with everybody else.

Wish Mousey, Distance Demon and other interstate supporters could have been there to soak it up as well

The crowd was fantastic. Stuck it out, got vocal and carried the boys over the line. Very happy I was there. Bad luck YM.

Congratulations Demons on a very good day. Went with a Cat mate and his son, enjoyed a very entertaining game with a raucous crowd (good numbers too, well done) and HAD A KICK ON THE 'G AFTER THE GAME! What a bloody great initiative. Hope not too many of you left at half time, like the couple of blokes sitting next to us! Cheers.

Rivals the Dogs game in 05 and the Saints final in 06.

The atmosphere was brilliant. You know the game is great when you're high-fiving strangers. :lol:

Even the trumpeter got in the action. Mind you, when he finished blowing his horn and the siren still didn't go, I was having nervous breakdowns. The longest quarter I think I've ever set through!

Wish i could have been there...I sat on the computer listening to the radio with a six pack for the first half like some kind of idiot...and even more idiotic, I stuck to it, and listened to the second half with more beer...but was well worth it. You could here the atmosphere every time we went forward. Sounded amazing. The supporters at the g are the ones that deserve to be involved in wins like that. Well Done!!

best ever comeback? I'm sure there have been a few 50+ point comebacks. Essendon down by 65 or whatever against North in 2001 comes to mind.

As far as half time comebacks go, it was the second biggest comeback ever. Only 2 pts off the record. There have been biger comebacks, but Im pretty sure they are referring to half time deficits...

was an amazing atmosphere - thought the same last year when we played the kangaroos!!

seriously, when davey kicked that sausage roll and sold crowley a couple of kgs of candy, well...

and brad green's shot in the last - we all went up like it sailed ten metres through!!

the players sharing with us the emotion of the day, well....

Thanks Nightmare, I'm sure I speak for all the other interstaters in wishing we could have been there too. Must have been sensational!

Unfortunatly we couldn't even get TV coverage in Canberra, with both free to air and paid TV showing the Swans / Dogs game. So much for Demetriou trying to promote the game in the regions.

Anyway, I listened to every word of commentary via MMM and my PC, and I sang the song just as loud at all of the truely faithful who attended the G. What a win!!

The Dees staged the second biggest comeback from half-time.

Talking of the Ess v North game, I was there - with a North supporter - and it was pretty astounding.

Just trying to imagine that same passionate crowd if it was 40,000. We can do it in time Believe. 40,000 against interstate clubs is what i want.

Did Y M go to the game?? I need to know!!

He says he went. Then again, YM says a lot of things. In saying that, despite his obvious insanity, I'm certain Yze_Magic is as passionate a demon as anyone here. He may as well be - he's on the Highway to Hell anyway.

It sucked not being there.. so much.

After only hearing the half time score, I sent my brother a a text asking how much we ended up losing by. When he replied 'up by 8 with 2 mins to go', i lot it. I ran out the back of the store, stuck my demons scarf on, informed EVERYONE at JB chadstone (not that anyone believed me at that stage), and walked past the TV with the replay every five seconds.

    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
