  • 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.


Ryan O'Keefe wants out of Sydney

Doubt he'll screw the club over AND there'll be enough interest in him that the Swans can force a trade out of someone

Lol I agree but still we can only hope. Let's show him a powerpoint presentation.

Sydney making room for Daniel Kerr. West Coast making room for two extra first round picks. I suspect that O'Keefe would be headed to the Dogs, but if he goes to the Blues he'll no doubt be given the very demanding job of a Visy spokesman on youth homelessness on the streets of South Yarra or some such crap. Robbie Warnock's already got the position of looking after lost Bunny rabbits and kittens.

lets say warnock is traded to the blues, and we nab primall but ROK slips through to the PSD... would we take him if there was noone else there? would he bring more value over the next 3-5 years than what a young draftee at this stage may offer over his career?

dw just read about it on realfooty

interesting

i reckon we get him, its not stupid. who cares if he's not in our window of oppoortunity. he's a gun, key forward, can play on ball. well worth getting. could easily offload sydney a dunn/bartram plus pick 19 and they'd take it with the threat of PSD...then again, our salary issues. in a perfect world :)

we won't get him in a trade, he won't want to come to us... why would he want to come to a club, which isn't going to threaten for a flag during his career?

the only way he'd possibly be in red and blue, is if a deal is not brokered and he ends up in the PSD...

He's one of my favourite players & I don't want him @ melbourne. He'll go to a club with an immediate open window for the next 3 years, teams like the Dogs, Saints, Pies, Cats, or poss' Blues.

We need to pick up Kids thru the draft.

Agreed! I would love nothing more than to see a powerful unit like ROK dominating our forward fifty but the simple fact of the matter is we dont meet his

requirements ( e.g. open premiership window ) and nor does he meet ours ( he will be over 30 when we are beginning to look serious ). Therefore any

entertaining of the thought of getting him is pointless, whether it be through trading or in the pre-season draft. Hopefully with some favourable draft picks and

smart rookie acquisitions, we can build our own crop of stars over the next few years. Fingers crossed.

why do you add an extra line between each of your lines of text?

Too old O'Keefe, for the Melbfc path of youth apparently. Terrific footballer and leader on and off the field. Would come at a cost. Interesting, I wonder if he would fall through to the PSD... <_<

Carlton's the only club with room in its salary cap tp fit O'Keefe.

The ever endless pit of money........ ;)

Deanox; not afraid to deal with the tough issues.

I hear the UN is having an emergency meeting to discuss the deeply disturbing phenomenon of placing extra line spaces :P

:lol:

Also to discuss the non-use of capital letters.

I think our problem lately has been that we have too many midfielders on our list but they keep getting injured. But a ruckman and a key forward are a must. One option could be getting Nicknat at pick one or even Vickery and getting Nathan Grima from the Kangaroos in a trade or psd as he was on a rookie list for one year and did his knee five weeks into pre season.

I know Nathan aswell and he is a solidly built forward or Back who last year was pivotal in Central Districts grand final win in the SANFL, we can get him for nothing in the PSD and he is only 24.

    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.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    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.
