  • 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'm a physiotherapist and essentially (from what it sounds like to me) is that when Jack came back to play, there was no risk of reinjury to his plantar fascia, however because it had only been a shor

I have it on good authority that he's in for a weekly pedi,  and has even had a few sneaky manis. My source quoted him as saying 'I want hands like Oliver!' No stone left unturned at MFC.

Apart from clips on Instagram and other social mefia showing him bouncing round without a moonboot and without obvious discomfort

I don’t think he even had a moonboot on at the Brownlow...

I don't care if he has a delayed start to the season proper, we've seen first hand how foot injuries can potentially be career destroying, i'd rather be precautious and have him for the next 10 years than try and get him ready for the season proper.

I feel we rushed him back way too early after he hurt his foot late in the season, don't want it to happen again......ever.

Believe the that he won't take part in full training till after Xmas, rehab group until then.

This was on the MFC website a little while ago confirming him and TMac would have delayed starts to the season.

This is concerning especially if it doesn’t heal correctly. 

Would hate for this to be a continually managed injury which will affect his preparation and season 2018. 

He is too important to us to be in and out of the team.

This was a pre emptive strike

Stops all the noise at the start of pre season

I saw Tommy Mc the other week as well, all good

Trust in the medical staff, they'll have Viney on a short leash

Good to hear about TMac. 

I just have a bad feeling that Vineys foot will be an ongoing issue and will affect his season.

Hope I’m wrong but time will tell.

It passed the ultimate fitness test earlier this month: dancing one leg on Wattsy’s grave.

 

Only serious.

Wiping the tears of laughter out of my eyes as we speak.

The Watts whiners can seemingly find a way to include Jack in every topic. Let it go Ron.

I probably should've called it Vineys Feet not Foot because I understood that it might have affected both? I agree with the posters about taking as long as nexxe

Your autocorrect appears to have gone rogue.

Soon enough he will be 'training the house down'.....

We have had no news out of the club except that he and TMac will have a delayed start.  It is a great question  - do we know anything more?  Nate Jones is out running - are there any instagram posts or anything about what Viney is up to?

BTW, I reckon a few posters should sign off from Demonland for a few weeks.  Honestly, every thread is full of how bad everything is, how poorly we manage the players, how underwhelming our coaching staff is, how player X is a spud, how we mishandled Watts exit, how we paid too much for Lever...  Did I miss anything??

Fhark me!  Sure we had a crap end to the year.  But time for some of you to let go of your little hobby horses and engage in the damned conversation at hand. (I suppose this is my hobby horse!)

F**KING HELL

I just heard a rumour on D-land that he broke it and its nearly detached! Just dangling there on the end of his leg!

Glad someone still has their sense of humour MR. Seems to be missing from quite a lot since the end of August.

I never broached the "Jack" topic with him. He really understood the anger and frustration from the supporters (well me anyway) with the late season fade out. A real gentleman and displays a real love of our club.

    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

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
