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.

Hogan just said Viney to play in Sat praccy game

Now there's an article on afl.com.au saying that he won't play and if he doesn't play in the next Casey praccy game he won't play round 1. Here's a link http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-03-07/dees-dday-looms-as-he-struggles-for-fitness 

From reports it sounds like he's back in full training, so I reckon Hogan's probably got it right.

Oh damn

Glad I'm going to watch, will be good too see him have a hit out

You will of course be expected to give a detailed report 5 seconds after the game is over not to mention live updates, photos and the occasional video in 4K. Thanks in advance. :P

Surely Frost is an upgrade and a better long term bet than Wagner??

I'm starting to think Frost is a bit overrated around here. 

Not saying Wagner will be the next Steven Silvagni or Matthew Scarlett, but apart from the odd exciting dash since he's come over, is Frost really a better option than Wagner?

The match committee have really fallen out of love with him and I can't see how Frost will be anywhere near the round 1 side.

Given you’re not employed at the club,  you’re in absolutely no position to be commenting on whether or not the poster should be sharing the information.

It is his and his only to share. We have no idea who his connection is and so the risk is his to take if he decides to share it.

It’s the same with any of the posters on this forum who have connections at the club and share information from time to time. Whether it’s trade news, injury or anything else. The risk is theirs.

I suggest you put him on ignore, like you have with everyone else who rubs you the wrong way on here. It’d be beneficial for you, but more importantly everyone else on here who is sick of you bobbing up anytime a poster shares something that you’re not privy to.

 

 

I was privy, just kept it to myself, I certainly don't have the need, like some on here, to be the bestest by the way

I'm hopeless at this kind of stuff. I have not seen a single aspect of Wagners game that is worth a spot in the senior side.

I can see the positives on O Mac, and am rapidly warming to him as a key defender, but I cringe every time Wagner has the ball in his vicinity. Terrible situational awareness, very poor lateral movement for a defender, and a huge turning circle. He even annoys me how he runs with those wrists of his cocked like a girl.

What am I missing?

The only thing you are missing is that the above is your opinion of Wagner, strange though it may seem to you, others such as the coaches don't share it

JLT squad trained first this morning, no TMac and Harmes trained with the reserve players who came out later. Lewis, ANB running laps and 400m semi sprints. ANB looks to be moving ok. No Viney either.

You make some of the most pointless posts on this entire board, with so many of them a simple cut and paste of a previous pointless post of zero value.

 

Have a look at the other 3 people who replied to my post. All gave an opinion of what I might be missing, and added value to the thread, while yours was yet another cringeworthy fanboy whinge.

Ok you are missing the fact you could be wrong with your assessment of Wagner's footy abilities in comparison to say Brendan McCarney who I chatted about Wagner with,

Or my opinion, is that yes Wagner could still have areas of his game to improve, the progress of which have been hampered by injury, but this pre season, where he has completed every session, the improvement overall is there to see, to some at least

Give it a rest and let others have an opinion. The coaches just humour you, they’re not going to express concerns about a player’s development to an outsider.

Could Harmes be left out tomorrow night? From all reports he hasn't trained with the main group all week.

Sorry, to clarify T Mac did not train today that I saw anyway. And pretty sure Harmes will be an omission.

Just passing on what I heard. 

Please put me on ignore. Why don't you just focus on loitering behind the players' tent after training and sending them invasive posts on their private Instagram accounts that they never respond to.

He’s gone from near BOG in JLT 1 to training with the maggoos.

Doesn't it go without saying that everything posted on here is the poster's opinion? Unless they're quoting someone else or explicitly saying "this is someone else's opinion".

(This is someone else's opinion.)

Wagner and Frost both have limitations but Frost's strengths are so much greater than Wagner's.

    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.
