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.


Go and get Gaff!

Anyone who doesn't think Gaff should be our main priority does not understand football. We have the inside ball winners covered, we lack outside run at times and this guy is one of the best. Plus anyone saying he isn't a competitor, he's averaging the most in his career so has improved in this area.

We should be in the box seat as we can still offer a bit of cash but have the potential success card up our sleeves. Carlton, Saints and even North can't provide that.

understand footy, watts to understand?    Gaff the clearance king?

You're right.  Lets ban all Game Day threads.

Make no mistake. 

I hear if you can train yourself to say that at the start (or end of) every sentence you utter then you are guaranteed a commentary job at Channel 7 with a weekly seat at the Talking Footy table.

So true. That guy who styles himself on Conan O’Brien loves it.

Sloane is not the player we need. Similar to a lot of our other mids. We need to diversify!

I spoke to my source last week, the long and the short of it is if Gaff signs with us he will be a Demon. 

Well I got the opposite info. I was told if he doesn't sign with us he won't be a Demon..

I've got different intel. I heard from a reliable source he is going to sign with North Melbourne, whitepaper the north out and play with us.

I don't agree; we have a lot of coalface operators,,, 1st touch merchants, but we need 2nd touch clearance type players with fine skills, who can take the ball out of the traffic, & deliver it to our players on the outside.

Sloane is handy, both in tight traffic, and also when he's out in some space.  He can kick a goal on the run, and he finds his targets, with the ball.

 

We do NOT need, pure outside footballers.

They are making sure they get full value for him if he leaves as an FA.  A first round comp pick from the AFL will be around 16 to 20. 

A forced trade will net a much better result especially if he wins or comes close to winning the Brownlow.  A six year deal will be quite an offer for other clubs to top.  Hard to see him leaving.

If he were to come to us he will be expensive in both contract and trade terms.

That sort of long term, big money contract, will probably succeed. I think he will stay an Eagle.

He has driven his price and deal up and that was probably the aim of the exercise.

    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.
