    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.

Sandringham team selection doesn't make sense to me these days. :wacko:

I don't pretend to know either Jack, I expect him to play... although maybe you can confirm as to whether he looked less than interested last weekend? He's been dropped from the senior side (MFC) twice now, rumours on another thread is that he's out of the leadership group as well.

White is on it as well and I can hardly see him getting dropped at this stage.

Yes, but he's named in the seniors. Yze is not.

I assume if a player is selected in the 18 set positions then he'll play on Sunday. There are only five MFC players in this category, leaving 11 Demons on the extended bench. Seven will be left after Melbourne finalises its 22 players for the Brisbane game tomorrow evening but only a maximum of four will play in the Sandy seniors (barring unforeseen injuries etc). That means it's possible that Cheney, Newton and one other Demon plays in the Sandy 2's and a few of the Sandy boys who struggled and were easily brushed aside by Port Melbourne play senior football. Doesn't make sense for Sandy and doesn't make sense for Melbourne. I guess there's half a season to go and what was once a very good relationship will be over.

Yze is probably listed on the bench because Sandy didn't know in time who Melbourne's emergencies were?

Look out for Barlow, could be a possible draftee from Werribee

The adjusted squad after allowing for the four players on the interchange for the Melbourne v Brisbane game. Should we assume Jeff White goes into the ruck ahead of Meesen?

interesting there are 12 mfc players named, even if most of them are on the bench.

i have a hunch that the 12 named will play and that some sandy players will be dropped from the 18.

do we have a reserves team?

:D

I'm hoping Newton plays. He's the biggest pre-occupation for me on these boards and as a concerned fan. Petterd is another big one, but he's slowly coming back and will certainly be in line for the last 6 rounds... But Newton is so important to our future in the sense that he fills a BIG hole, at least partially. If he's no good I want them to decide ASAP.

I was going to go out on a limb and suggest they might be resting White for this week to give hime a two week rest before the run home... Looking at the side that would be doubtful

Would the fact that Sandy are looking to their future beyond the MFC alliance and seeing what they can get out of their own stock?

Of the players on the bench Yze, Maric and Cheney are coming off poor games last week and may the price. Carroll was not that good either. Newton had a poor game in Sandy 2nds. Suggest it will be Carroll, White, Cheney and Morton.

Yze won't be playing in Sandy's 2nd's Cheney will be dropped. Carroll didn't play last week.

Sandy seniors were uninspiring today and lost their third game in a row - this time by a goal after giving up a 5 goal start. With two tough games in the next two rounds, they face a battle to remain in the top eight.

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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
