    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.

It is an away game and starts at 2pm Saturday.

Casey should win this comfortably by 30 points with the form they are in and could boast an even stronger line up with the possible inclusions of Tyson, King and Hutchins.

HB: J.SMITH, PETTY, LOCKHART

goody mentioned they would be taking a few extra players up to the alice for the experience, so we might be down a few listed players in the magoos

I thought he was taking the injured players up early and then they were flying up Saturday. I think maybe the 1 traveling emergency is consistent with the rest of the year (right?). Saying that i don’t remember us traveling with and emergency to the Gabba.

Port aren't a bad side ... they beat us well last year if I recall.

Ex Tigers player Nahash (?) played a blinder.

Very nice surrounds down at Port although having the same colours and theme song as the MFC can be a little confusing.

And of course the famous Burra Burger not to mention the dim sims.

Weather froecast looks okay if not a little cool so I will probably head down.

i'd imagine all the indigenous players will probably go up for the clinics and local pr even though 2 of them probably won't be playing

If you're going to pre-empt @KC from Casey in setting up this thread every week can you please follow the same format in the topic heading and preview info?

Consistency is a wonderful thing and doing it that way allows posters to search and find the thread in the future, once the topic has dropped off the main page.

Here's the template:

 Thanks

Yes Nahas has been killing it at Port. They are a very good and well drilled side - definitely breaking the mould for the non-aligned VFL clubs!

I would expect Tyson and one perhaps one other listed player to travel to the NT either as travelling emergencies and also for PR purposes. That being said, if Tyson travels as emergency to the NT, that will be two weeks without a game...

Is he capable of regaining a position in the seniors

I haven't been following the Casey threads

I wouldn't expect Tyson to travel he needs a game under his belt. Garlett and Pedo for mine.

He might be needed when we play the WCEagles ?

I'll let KC put up the team, but the side has included King and Tyson.

I think M.Lewis and Lok should hold their spots due to the possibility of Garlett and Pedo going up to the NT.

Hutchins still out.

Quigley the 23rd man.

A pretty strong squad again but the full strength won’t be determined until we know how many players are taken to the NT:-

You do realise the team you've quoted is one that he has 'made up' on the Monday, yeah?

Reality is I do pick the team Goody's right hand man I am.

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
