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.

Haven’t heard that, but I was listening to SEN when they asked Jack Viney who he’d take and he said Jimmy Toumpas. Oh well, we take Wines and he drags us over the line in a few of the close games

As much as I'd love to see Wines as a Demon we don't have the currency in terms of draft picks and I'm not parting with our current crop. We'll have to wait until free agency. 

Gaff it is for now. 

Glad we got that all settled.

I suspect there is more chance of Jack Watts & Jack Trengove both being at the MFC next year than there is of Ollie Wines coming to the club. 

Nice to dream about, but there is no way to make it happen.

How about a package including Wines and Toumpas?

I'm only hearing how much he loves Port, and get laughed at whenever i suggest he should play for us. Not him, but someone who regularly catches up with him at Port ( although nobody can read his mind )

Would love him in our side, but I'm not getting excited yet. 

I have higher hopes for Gaff tbh.

We dont just have to dream any more. Our list, coupled with our form means more and more players will be happy to consider us without getting massive paydays.

Surely we have 4 or 5 'spare' players lying around that we could package up for a first round pick, and then put that with some rubbish late picks to get Wines?

Am I doing this right?

no, your not...   no one has said it would be a simple thing to do...  but if one doesn't even try, then one doesn't ever know.

 

If Wines wanted out;,,, picks or players might aid the cause. 

 

It would be tough to do, but things that are valuable are hard to come buy.

Tyson and Garlett for Wines

Bad luck Port, you will have no bargaining 'power' when Ollie decides to come to the rising powerhouse that is the Melbourne Football Club.

If the Hawks can attract players of quality at seeming regularity;,, then we have to aim at being like them.

... acting like that, and going after Our Dreams.

... lets lose the negativity around chasing down our dreams.  If you can dream it, you can build it.

 

We have to stop putting road blocks in our own way, before we even try.

 

This is why we are not the ones housed in the Olympic swimming centre, for example.   This is why our membership is so transient. Only jumping up when we can make finals, in a given year.

 

People have seen the club as being unreliable, and out of reach, and this is what we''ve created over the past 50+Yrs.

Its time we changed the mental fabric around the whole club.   From the board. down to the sometimes supporter.

 

 

I've never heard the words,,,  "we can't do that",  coming out of the Hawthorne footy club_

So we should wait fore them, to call us...?

 

I say, time for this old conservative girl Mfc, to get onto the front foot and chase down (head-hunt) if you prefer;  the players we dream of for the RednBlue.

players I would consider for trade...

Garlett, Tyson, Frost, Kent, Wagner, Hunt, ANB, Stretch,   & possible future picks, etc.

 

We have the means, if we want to do it.

Not this year, but soon, Oliver and Viney would walk into that Lions/eagles midfield. Gawn is better. Brayshaw 2018 has something. Just out of interest i reckon Judd/Cousins>>Voss/Black what do you think? I would have Oliver/Viney close to par with the Brisbane pair.

Agree. Judd and Cousins quite easily for mine. Black not quite in the class of the other 3.

Oliver/Viney have a long way to go to be in that sort of discussion.

You win some you lose some, or in Carlton’s case you just lose. No point dwelling on the past. I judge players on their looks and Wines head is too square for my liking, never trust a blockhead my Gran used to say.

    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.
