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.

can they sell the farm though ?

Yep, trade out one of their better GF players and get a higher 1st round pick.  GCS looking for a top 5 pick because they thought we could get it.  If we can't they look at the next best offer for May.

Fremantle are Dead Set Criminals!

They think they can [censored] rape clubs for players whilst also copping blow jobs during the trade period.

FREO FU.K OFF! 

Brisbane handed over Pick 2 for Weller.

Freo won’t accept Pick 5 for Neale.

Freo want to give Pick 11 and 28 for Hogan? What a joke...

Clubs need to stop dealing with these pricks!

Consider a different scenario, Neale decides he doesn't want to go to Brisbane if Beams isn't going to be there. There goes Pick 5 to the Dockers and dare I say their bargaining power for Hogan. All deals off and we have to promise next years draft to get May

What happens if GC are looking for a 55 plus goal kicking, Carey like bull to replace the one that walked out???

Truly interesting.

Brinkmanship at its best. 

It is possible that Freo love Jessie and are just playing hardball as a negotiation stance. Most negotiators will stick by their ambit position for as long as possible. What they have put is only ridiculous if you think Hogan is a star. Unlike your stars of the game, he has not proved himself in a sustained way. 

More likely is that Freo would like Jessie but like others in the footy world (including the Dees) have their doubts about his value and longevity.  Also Jessie may seem less than enthusiastic about joining Freo creating further doubts about the deal. Not good if you offering him mega bucks and he seems a little detached and not jumping for joy. They want him but are not prepared to sell the farm.

If I was Freo, I would not change my position. 

See how he goes next season and if he does okay then come knocking. 

The Dees are the loser because they end up with a player that is not switched on, maybe on the side lines with injury, and is not going to remain integral to their game plan in the future.

Unless, Jessie gets his act together, plays great footy, falls in love with the Dees and commits to a Demon future. Now that would be something!

I wonder if West Coast see an opportunity here. If they were to shop around a player or two in a package deal and nab a top ten pick, they could make a quick deal with Melbourne and snatch Jesse right out from under Fremantle. It's highly unlikely, but it would be absolutely hilarious if it happened.

SEN suggesting that 11 & a Future First might be the best Freo offer. 

They can't. They've already traded their future 3rd rounder. Means they can't trade their future 1st Round Pick, only 2nd, 4th, 5th etc...

We have rejected the offer and are happy to keep him and deal with west coast next year. 

Jay clark tweet. Sorry can’t copy the link atm

Which in a nut shell mfc's trading philosophy is to be fair, not play hardball or bend other clubs over (bingo) and get traded done The Kent deal being a good example.

After all it's not as if they get new clubs to trade with every year or this is the lady year of trading.

Unremarkably, Freo supporters reckon Bell and Rosich are geniuses.

After paying Dockerland a visit, I would like to extend my thanks to @Demonland for giving us a user friendly and visually attractive site to discuss our team on.

MELBOURNE have reportedly rejected Fremantle’s offer of pick No.11 and a future second-round selection for spearhead Jesse Hogan.

The deal is understood to be the Dockers’ first official offer to the Demons, who appear set on receiving a pick in the draft’s top 10 for the 23-year-old key forward.

Hogan toured the Dockers’ Cockburn facilities last week but has yet to publicly declare he wants to shift home to WA with a year still to run on his Demons contract.

However the two clubs are openly discussing a deal for him. The news of the Demons rejecting the offer was reported by multiple outlets on Thursday afternoon.

A report on The Herald Sun raised a move to West Coast next year as a possibility for Hogan should the Dockers fail to get a deal done before next Wednesday’s trade deadline.

Fremantle traded away their No.6 draft pick to Port Adelaide on Thursday morning, leaving pick No.11 as their first selection but arming them with two second-round picks to use in negotiations.

The club could possibly get back into the top-10 at this year’s draft if they agree to shift Lachie Neale to Brisbane in return for pick No.5.

    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.
