    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.

Once again a footballer is tragically struck down with a horrible tattoo.

He's lucky he's an awesome footballer, because that tattoo is disgraceful!

Fancy getting your own name tattooed all over your back... just how drunk was he when this piece of magic was permanently engraved on his body?! :o:wacko:

Regardless of his shocking taste in tattoos, it's good to hear he is getting daily treatment for torn abdominal/groin muscles (ouch!) and that he thinks he'll be right to go next year. I'm looking forward to the return of a fit and firing Rivers (and yes, I'm a believer).

in a way it might be a good thing that he 'tore' some muscles rather than just aggrevated some more injuries. it is forcing him to sit around and do absolutely nothing while they heal. he is also seeing a specialist in the region of the op stuff so hopefully he is making sure everything is right to go.

it looks like he is having a forced 3-4 month lay off which should be good for his recovery.

i wonder if the time in SA will affect his 'go home' switch in anyway? it could reignite the latent want to return home, or it could satisfy the craving to spend more time back home...

It could probably go either way.

However, I'm sure he's built a life for himself in Melbourne, and it's probably good that he's able to get away from the Club and spend some time catching up with friends and family while doing the rehab work, rather than sit around in Victoria while his peers are involved with footy.

If he can get his body right, he'll be a handy 'recruit' in '09.

Agree. Why do they do it? :wacko:

Fancy getting your own name tattooed all over your back... just how drunk was he when this piece of magic was permanently engraved on his body?! :o:wacko:

So drunk he might know even realise its there or how he got it. :lol: I have often wondered what attention seeking gene it is to have a loud tattoo that you cant see but everyone else can

Regardless of his shocking taste in tattoos, it's good to hear he is getting daily treatment for torn abdominal/groin muscles (ouch!) .

Once recovered he will be fit enough to have "Such is life" circumferencing his navel in gothic lettering. :D

While this is known world-wide as the worst tattoo ever, it's a bit like a car crash, ugly but you just can't look away... might have something to do with the placement of said tattoo. He could have a giant tattoo of Elmo smoking a joint on his lower abdomen and it still wouldn't look so bad :unsure:

Please tell me that tatt on his back does not say "rivers"

Oh lordy lord it does too!

Anyway, I've already forgiven him.

I really hope they can strenghthen his core. If he can come to preseason fully fit and ready to train we're basically recruiting a gun backmen for 09.

Let's hope the damage can heal, I guess I have my doubts but I'm really hoping he comes good. Adding his courage and talent to our backline as a 3rd or even 4th quality player would give us a bloody good back half.

FB: Whelan Warnock Rivers

HB: Buckley Martin Garland

Also: CJohnson, Bell, Frawley

Maybe even putting Garland up forward next to Watts

FF: Wona Miller Maric

HF: Sylvia Watts Bate

Also: Newton (possibly wishful thinking), Davey

Maybe even Zomer

Is it starting to look good or am I so one eyed that I just love 'em all

I'll need help deciding that but this looks pretty good

If we do get Watts, I would not expect much out of him in his first year given he wants to focus on his VCE year in 2009.

More longer term.

Absolutely.

Oh goodness, are you serious? Someone needs to get down there and straighten them out. :wacko:

It's in case they forget their names... they can chase their own back trying to identify who they are after a big night out :lol:

Been sitting here for twenty mins trying to think of a defence for the poor boy. There isn`t one. Very bad tattoo. But don`t worry JR i got one too !!!!!

Any truth in the rumour that he's got a tattoo even lower that says "wrong way go back"?

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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
