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.

I dont agree with these...

I know carroll wasnt super but he took a few good marks when needed, the whole backline didnt really work.

Bruce was one of our best, for once he stood out in a game when we were losing which doesnt really happen too often.

I dont think i saw Godfrey in that analysis... <_< i maybe wrong though

Completely and utterly disagree in regards to Bell. Was our best defender along with Jared, but an absolute mile. Not sure why he is rated so poorly around this place either. He showed Whelan how it's done today!

Carroll was ok, nothing out of the ordinary. He is a solid FB, but he is no star.

Miller was also good. How anyone can say he failed, is beyond me.

Marked nearly everything that came his way, kicked 2 very good goals and led hard all day. He was the only one still presenting in the last quarter.

White was awful out the middle. Jamar had more influence in the ruck than White.

I thought Bell was good.

Miller showed some good signs.

You know it's gonna be a long, fruitless season when you can honestly say Bell was one of our best. And Miller tries hard. His hearts in the right place. But when it comes to disposal, I'd swear he was blind folded.

the worst 3 word analyst ive ever read!

miller was great today, stood up when needed, kicked well, kicked 3 goals what more do you want?

bell i thought was good also but its hard to be great when they run the ball into our backline with little to no pressure, also thought carrol was very good, out marked his opponet about 5 times and spoilt well all day

Bruce - leagues worst kick

Bate - league worst hands

Jamar - leagues worst ruckman

Moloney - leagues worst tackler

Hmmm I feel like I watched a different game to you joeboy... :wacko:

Miller presented, marked and goaled and worked hard all day, one of the very few that actually did. Did he fail? Absolutely not. One of the best games I think I've seen him play.

As for Bell - destroying Demonlanders' faith? I thought today was one of his best games, along with Miller. He didn't stop trying even after he got whacked in the nose.

Jones - made a contribution? I think that's a bit of an understatement. I thought he did much more than merely contribute. He was all over it, driving it long into our forward 50 rather than this pissy handball stuff that we saw again today.

Daniher said on Channel Nine that he wouldn't rule out dropping Davey and Trav to Sandringham - can you imagine? :o

Right just got home. Shocking game, but we did fight it out considering the bad run with injuries.

Whelan - was soundly thrashed

Carroll - was not disgraced

Bell - solid medium backman (I thought he did well today, though alot of you appear to disagree)

Brown - gave decent run

Rivers - well rounded game

Ward - under the pump

Johnstone - harassed to death/career worst game (yes he had a terrible game, but his team mates didn't help him out at all. he was blocked out of numerous contests by 2 men tagging him at once, and his team mates didnt do a thing to help him. I'm defending him because he's my favorite player. As sh*t as he was, I blame team mates for not showing any comradeship whatsoever. And therein lies our main problem currently)

Johnson - not doing enough

Green - poor milestone game

Davey - becoming a passenger

Moloney - another solid game (am I the only one on here who thinks he is actually doing well considering how little footy he has player the last year and abit?)

McDonald - battled as usual

Robertson - not much opportunity

Neitz - get well soon :S

Jones - made small contribution

Miller - is getting better

Jamar - is going nowhere

Bate - lacks confidence + form/mr butter fingers

Wheatley - poor milestone game

Bruce - battled all match

White - switched up game

Godfrey - what we expected (tried hard, but just isnt a good enough AFL footballer)

Terrible start to the season for us. Slightly worried, but we lost first 3 last year and came back. Problem is we've lost 2 at the G already, that's more than the entire season last year :S I had both matches penciled in as a win, and they'll obviously come back to haunt us.

CMON DEES. LIFT YOUR F*CKING GAME!

"Miller was great!" Competitive maybe. But Great? Come on. You're as confused as Miller when he gets possession.

wtf is goin on? I disagree with so many of those analysises!~

Carn The Dees, it's Happy Hour! Every twit, unconsidered opinion gets aired post-game usually by relatively new posters or a few oldies (ie YNSM) with axes to grind. Ride with it and look for more thoughtful posts later on.

Yeah I've been ranting. But I'm upset damnit! I want my pound of flesh. I'm living in Sydney with Vic plates and Demons stickers on my car. What do I get for it? Key scratches down the side and flattened tires. All I want is this list to start fullfilling it's hyped up potential. Do right by the fans and make an effort. They're a rabble from the evidence so far.

I must have been at a different game than most of you:

Bruce - a liability today

Bell - solid effort today

Miller - better show today

Bate - half paced butter-fingers

Godfrey - battled on typically

Ward - His opponent was?

Jamar - slow reaction time

Jamar - misses the boat

When we were down by 6 goals, the only player running and tackling hard was TJ

that is the worst analysis ever! do u actually watch the game? bell played a great game and so did miller! Carroll put in a solid effort and without him we would have been beaten by a larger margin and how u say bruce is not an elite anymore just shows your pathetoc support for some of these players.. next time actually watch the game.

Can people please think before they completely shoot down certain players!

Daniel Bell...........how anyone can bag this bloke is beyond me!

Here is a kid finally getting his chance to play regular seniors footy after having to wait his turn to play half back while players like Brown, Wheatley, Bizzell, Walsh, Ward have been in his way over the previous seasons.

He has played 25-30 odd games, and I have see him improving in each one of them.

Let's not forget his broken ankle he had at the end of 2005, and a hamstring problem early last season before coming back into the team and being one of our most consistent in the run into the finals last year.

Players like Bell are a part of our teams future!

What do supporters want to do.....scrap the whole list and start from scratch ????

Cut the guy some slack!!!!!!

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
