Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

Damn. I'm starting to lose confidence in Jax.

Mine disappeared last week. Cannot deal with mobile QBs. D is a shambles and Bortles in full derp mode.

Jeez @Gorgoroth how good are our boys. ;)

49ers will be smoked by them... and you'll go into a tough 4 week stretch with Packers, Saints, Seahawks and Chiefs. Win a couple of those at least and you'll be unstoppable for playoffs and just playing for homefield.

Late again.

Seahawks, Rams, Packers 

I only just noticed you picked the Packers layz ...they're at home against your 49ers tomorrow

This is correct. I think they will get it done, maybe not easily but they’ll get us deep too often. 

Ha ha!

The 3 picks have to be road teams layz

Not to worry,  you could outright hit the front next week as week 7 is worth 2 points.

Don’t suppose I can change it to Niners? Reaching a bit but it’s all I got!

Yeah,  you're right layz,  it's a reach.  I have to be fair to all ?

But don't lose heart,  perseverance wins out in the end and the winner will need to cash in on the 2 point weeks.  And that could be you.

Weeks 7,  9,  11,  13,  15 are all worth 2 points whilst week 17 is worth 3 points.  In fact,  there are total of 18 points available through to the end of the regular season. 

Currently,  we have 6 co-leaders all sitting on a whopping 1 point.

Leaderboard

1 - JV7,  Go the Biff,  Dr. Gonzo,  Clintosaurus,  Dappa Dan,  Macca

0 - Everyone else.

What can I say?  It's a tough comp!

You really sell this competition well Macca! Could easily do an ad on SEN ?

I was so certain that it was Packers @ Niners that your first post alerting me to it flew dead set over my head :s

I don't care what anyone says about how good defensive football is... A track meet like that is so great to watch in the NFL.

Fabulous game of offense Dappa... dare I say it,  welcome to the new NFL. 

However,  I can equally enjoy watching a defensive low scoring game played in a blizzard.

The season has lacked an abundance of upset victories although 5 or 6 divisions are up for grabs with only the Rams and almost certainly the Pats assured of winning their respective divisions.  The Chargers are only 1 win away from KC & there are a number of divisions that are impossible to pick right now.

With a dozen participants there was bound to be a few unforced errors.  The good bit is that it is hard to fall too far behind because of the lack of scoring (this year at least)

Here's a sneak peak at next weeks games (week 7) ... there's more than a few potential road winners there and with 2 points at stake,  it's time to make a move. 

And may the better team win tomorrow!

This will easily be the biggest mistake I make this week. 

Of course, may the better team beat the 49ers!

I was thinking the same thing today. I've been thinking the Eagles have been very mediocre. But 3-3 this year... you're not that far off the big-time teams. Rams along with Pats or Chiefs the class of their conferences... but still everyone else we had picked has spluttered in one way or another.

Chiefs should win the AFC West but the Chargers might push them ... schedule isn't too tough and their week 15 game at KC could decide things.  There again,  KC could gap them under Reid and with the wunderkind Mahomes.  The kid looks the goods with his timing - plays like a talented veteran.

Well we gotta stop getting players injured every game. But we are doing well on O. D worries me still especially in the secondary.

Hoping Kupp’s knee isn’t bad. 

You would have scored well with Gurley in your fantasy league. He was on fire.

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
