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.

Another off season begins.

 

PORT Adelaide ruckman Paddy Ryder has been charged with assault following an incident outside an Adelaide nightclub.

The Power released a statement confirming the All Australian was involved in an incident with his younger brother and cousin at a club in Hindley Street on Sunday morning.

He has also been charged with hindering police.

"Ryder met with club officials this morning to express his disappointment and regret for involving himself in an incident which primarily concerned his brother," a Port Adelaide statement said.

Ryder was released on bail and will appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on November 15.

"Ryder, 29, was arrested by police, who allege he assaulted officers and hindered them making an arrest".

On the face of it doesn't sound good.

Let's hope our lot stay out of strife this off season.

He could claim that he was under the influence of a side effect from the The whatever it took campaign and has no personal recollection or understanding of the incident.

Perhaps the respected issuer of the Norm Smith medal could provide some assistance with records that supplements produce such effects

But does he want to win a Premiership or just be an AFL player?

Depending on the answer to the above question, Uncle Kosh may save him.

A Port player got arrested, culture breads culture I guess!

Most media have said that Ryder was protecting his brother/defending himself. But for an AFL player to be on Hindley St at 1am is poor form, even in off season.

Surely players can go wherever they want at whatever time they want in the offseason. It is their holidays.

I have never heard of, or been to Hindley Street, but if it is bad as you hint perhaps the police should worry about it.

2 sides of the coin. Its off season and he is allowed to enjoy himself.

Flipside: A professional would never be in the situtation where assualting anyone, let alone a cop, at 1am outside a nightclub is a possibility.

Life is not that cut and dried though is it

Sh!t happens when we least expect it and if somebody started attacking my brother unprovoked i would lose my collective marbles to. 

His professional is totally irrelevent

Absolutely. If he was out at a park or a resturaunt etc - no issues at all. But being outside a nightclub at 1am, where you KNOW there is going to be people that are intoxicated just wanting to have a go is asking for trouble. Protecting a family member is one thing, assualting a cop is another.

 

That being said, until he is actually sentenced its all hearsay.

    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.
