    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.

Agree with that.

I cant for the life of me understand how people can give Yze votes when whatever good work he does he wrecks with some of the most selfish football you would seen.

It was not just the two inexplicable failures to centre the ball and have selfish shots on goal and missed. He had another set shot for goal which was clearly beyond Yze's range. Did he do the team thing and put it to the top of the square 10-15 metres? Not Yze. Had to go for the ping which just got rushed for a behind.

Not to mention the gimme he missed in the 3rd quarter.

Fair go, i thought his first half was excellent. Second half he retreated back to his old selfish ways, but he wasn't horrible.

BRFE has got it almost spot on:

6Mclean

5Garland

4Green

3Wheatley

2Aussie

1Warnock

A good effort, just couldn't get there in the end.

6 - McLean: is performing at a high level consistently now.

5 - Warnock: excellent job on Cloke. Amazing to think we wanted him gone.

4 - Garland: has gone from a raw kid, to a vital cog almost over-night.

3 - Wonaeamirri: awesome pressure, makes most of opportunities.

2 - Jones: wasn't his best game, but still stood out in my mind.

1 - Wheatley: performed okay... we need a better kicking-out structure that suits HIM.

What have I said that is incorrect?

Why cant you handle the truth?

How the hell can you put up with Bruces continual rubbish dispisal and those crap handballs he does that cost the team every time? And 27 rubbish disposals mean nohting.

Sylvia had 6 shots on goal, took some lovely grabs and smashed the hell out of a few Pies. Its called 'having an impact'. Look it up.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

6. McLean Top game. got heaps of it, clearances, good decicions.

5. Jones Ditto Mclean. Becoming a good user and decision maker. Needs to play more games like this to take the next step. 5 tackles

4. Warnock A revelation. Suited to the big heavy forwards. Beat Cloke clearly

3. Wona Very creative and dangerous. Makes things happen

2. Garland Good game. Athletic, keeps pace with the quickest players and manages to get a spoil in most contests. Developing nicely

1. Bruce Seemed more desperate today and got heaps of it. Would have been higher bar from some poor decision making; esp handball and a shocker of a spilt mark.

My votes:

6 McLean

5 Garland

4 Bruce

3 Jones

2 Aussie

1 Wheatley

Its pretty obvious you are Bruces uncle or granpda or something.

You have done an extremely poor job of hiding it.

No Y_M, He's giving votes to Bruce because of his game today. I, personally think that he deserved 1 or 2 votes, not 4, but anyway Bruce tried hard all day, probably ran the hardest out of all the boys. Clearly his disposal is not the best, but you are so negative towards him its a joke. He had 27 touches and i reckon maybe 5 or 6 were ineffective. The rest hit their targets but of coarse you didn't see that because you are a pessimistic fool.

Yeah, YM is delusional on many occasions 'Addam Magic'. Now he has told me that I must be RELATED to Mr Bruce. I've never ever met the guy but I do know that he is a bloody good footballer and we would be up a well known creek without him. I have suggested that Bruce pinched his girlfriend on a couple of occasions and he's never denied it. Hmmmm! Imagine the team we would have if he was chairman of selectors.

I didn't see the game, so I can't comment on his performance today.

But, are you related to or somehow know Cameron Bruce?

No mate, absolutely no connection. I just can't hack some posters blaming him every week when he always runs his guts out. Incidentally, he was named our 3rd best on the official AFL website. Maybe I'm not alone or the reporter was his brother!

Gee, you're having a go at Adem Yze. I'm shocked.....

Also, you've agreed with 3 votes to Wheatley - on the criteria above, did you miss the "shepherd" he laid to protect Moloney?

:o:o:o

Man we should dump him for that! :lol:

I also saw the rest of his game. I thought he was good and I dont damn him for one indiscretion. Yze had 4 bad clangers.

Another case of reporters looking at the top stat- getters and naming them in the best.

Bruce can get a million possessions a game, but if he keeps wasting them and giving away stupid handballs that put teammates under pressure, he will continue to be a liability. I still can't get over the fact that he's our captain! :o

    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
