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.


2011 Draft



Recommended Posts

Could Someone please tell me what pick we would have if the season were to finish now

Also if someone could give the breakdown of what picks GWS get (basically a full run-down of the draft)

that would be fantastic.

I think GWS get something like 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15. Something Hideous like that!! i heard Shifter Sheahan talk about it all on SEN a few weeks back.

GWS get the same concessions, I'm pretty sure, which is picks 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 and the first pick of every round afterwards.

So as it currently stands, we are in line for pick 19.

Edit: Dammit, ninja'd. And Satan, compensation is decided by...someone I don't know of, but basically there's tiers - first-round pick, end-of-first-round pick, second-round pick, end-of-second-round pick or third-round pick. For the picks not at the end of the round, that pick comes instantly after your pick in that round - e.g. if we finished 8th (pick 19) and used a first-round compensation pick (hypothetically, we currently don't have one) then it would be pick 20, and every pick below us would be pushed back one. So if you finished bottom of the ladder with pick 1, and had a first-round compensation pick, you have the new Scullgove twins. :)

Would be nice if we could ship out a player (Bate?) to GWS + our first pick for a better pick.

Bate + pick 19 to GWS, pick 5 to Melbourne.

Me gusta.

No matter what happens with you know who, our club should lobby the AFL to ensure that any team which loses a #1 draft selection would be compensated with the first pick in this year's draft. That's a lot fairer than having such a player stolen by GWS for pick 17!

The response I'll see from the AFL is that if they had to match Tom Scully as a number one pick then they'd have to match Watts, then Kreuzer, Gibbs, Murphy, Deledio and so on. Where would the cutoff be?

From a realistic and common sense point of view it's unfair not to receive the first pick in the event that he left, but from an AFL point of view, it's unfair to give us the first pick.

The AFL point of view should be to protect the integrity of the competition and not to create conditions under which it is well nigh impossible for a club to retain an outstanding player aged under 21.

So there you have my cut off if you like. The players you cite are all over 21 and have all given their clubs more than two years' service. In my view, it's absolutely unconscionable that a situation should be allowed to arise whereby there is even a question of uncertainty about the future of a player of top calibre at such a young age.

If the AFL decided to compensate TS for pick 1, I wonder if GWS would abandon the deal.

Good luck trying to get the AFL to agree to anything that disadvantages GWS. Won't happen.

Pisses me off that our own CEO supported this rubbish when clubs were being questioned about draft picks and compensation levels for GC/GWS!

Surely it'd be like all other compensation picks, in that it can be used in any of the next 5 years, but if you use it this year you'd have to wait until GWS had their picks.

The very fact that the club hasn't (publicly at least) lobbied the AFL is a positive sign.

I can't see why they would care - it's not their pick.

He is saying "if we don't get the first pick in the draft then Scully isn't worth it."

Doesn't hold much water for mine, being pushed back a place is nothing - the talent you are going to get is going to be good anyway...

Whereas if you recall last year, Geelong did come out at some stage with concerns about the compensation "IF" they did lose Ablett to GC.

    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.
