  • 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.


Final team for sunday

Ran into KC from Casey and he told me that Maric was best for Casey last week by a country mile. Given that was his third good effort he will surely play. KC also said he heard a little whisper that Moloney may not be 100%. We will see.

Whatever, Moloney will not be lining up at CHF so there will changes of some sort.

haha why put juice ahead of maric.

because "he provied a target"...get censored.

maric deserves the spot.

Yep.. and Newton HASN'T earned his spot. Thats what worries me. Hope DB doesn't turn it into a game of trial and experiment, i mean, whats with Jetta in the back pocket as well? At this stage, this round, we need a win. We're gonna be hard-pressed to win any of the next 6, so i believe it makes Sunday all that more important for us and a good reason not to try jetta in the back pocket, or Newton on a half-forward flank. We need to get our best team, in their best positions, playing to their strengths, to get A win on the board. Try something new when we're 10 goals down at 3 qtr time, unfortunetly theres gonna be plenty of chances to do so. Don't know what DB's thinking.

Hope Newts does a toe.. Maric in.. :rolleyes:

i'm astounded Addam hasn't been selected... Really thought Bartram was going to be dropped this week... I guess we'll find out tomorrow night if Maric lines up at Casey or not...

on a positive note, McMahon has come back into the Richmond side... surely this can only be a good thing...

Jetta`s playing so he might reckon there is no need to play Maric.

Makes no sense.

Maric is 5 times better, is a ball magnet, and the best kick at the club.

Plus our forward line is a joke.

Maric is the man to spark us.

While maric did play well for casey in the last three quarters he was still struggling for a bit of fitness... at afl level he would struggle and maybe get caught out a little so might need another week, still could fit in that side i think...

Still cant believe people think spencer should be in the side for PJ, i admit he has struggle but spencer was well beating at vfl level... has done nothing to get a recall!!!

McMahon has no confidefnce in himself, treats the pill as a hot potato, good teams expose him

Maric had surgery over the summer so it maybe that Bailey feels he needs another game at VFL Level to have the match fitness for an AFL game. Certainly when fit he will be a vauable addition in midfield and forward.

Newton has promise. He can take a spectacular grab and applies good defensive pressure. His challenge is to take more of the less spectacular marks, do the regulation mark and goal. Hopefully the kgs he put on over summer will assist. Certainly opposing defenders would be more concerned at being one out with Newton than Pettard as hte ball comes in long or on the lead.

    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

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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
