  • 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.

he seems pretty mature hey! he did really well.. good answers!

funny he outlined that crazy goal he kicked in the last quarter for caseys was a fluke he was aiming for the centre!

also said he is good mates with both butcher and scully.. he paused for a second almost as if to say it would be good to have both join him in the dees..but held off haha

thanks for the heads up nugget jones!

Young Master Watts has just become the player that I would most like to haver at a dinner party. He dealt with the hosting panel with ease and almost completely free of sound bites. Yet another example of what an impressive young man he is. As Hutchinson said, he is likely to be hosting the show in a couple of years and who would doubt it. He seemed to lick his lips at the prospect of Scully and Butcher coming to the club

just saw it...

speaks very very well. He was interviewd on "TAC Cup - Future Stars" which is a new show on channel 9 (i think it might be a one off). Hosted by Hutchy.

He was asked about his program and he talked about his time management and how he has Thurdays off school. He says he didnt mean that goal for Casey, and how his eyes were looking inwards.

Talked about having two protein shakes a day.

He is good mates with scully and butcher.

Wishes sam blease the best in his recovery who just had surgery...

Watts is a fantastic media peformer. Lets hope he is as impressive at AFL level - but I have no doubts he will be a champion based on what I have seen of him so far - Elite junior at both Basketball and AFL - not to mention leadership skills!

Can't remember, but the whole program looks to be a weekly fluff piece.

All filler, very little real content.

Terribly boring interviews with kids that act like a deer-in-headlights.

The most you could possible glean is a name, position and see a couple of poorly packaged highlights.

Let's hope it improves, but when you think about it, how can it?

They have little to work with other than hype and all they seem to do is make it more apparent that this is all it is.

Its also important to remember that it is a TAC Cup show -- they are only focusing on Victorian kids.

When you consider the top 10 from last year's draft - 4 from WA, 2 from SA - it only highlights how pointless this program is.

have no idea what you guys are on about. It had a ripping interview with Jack Watts (the best Watts interview that's been done), a good interview with Sam Mitchell, as well as a funny bloopers clip from his recent tv commercial...not to mention footage of Watts at the aps game, footage of butcher on the weekend as well as Christensen...footage that is practically unavailable anywhere else. loved the show

Well then you are easily pleased and content isn't on your list of priorities.

Mitchell told you nothing insightful in that interview (he has come a long way since a junior? really? wow), seconds of poor footage from APS and TAC Cup games that showed nothing of any players football ability, and then it turned into a 15minute infomercial for TAC. Tell me - whats their new slogan again..?

Obviously you just enjoy getting sucked in with the hype.

The only bit of real interest was the brief Watts interview and being able to glean a couple of extra names to keep an eye on.

You probably like So You Think You Can Dance and Fattest Loser too, with all their contrived drama and minimal substance.

Anyway, I shouldn't complain, if I don't like it, I just won't watch it - I'm just disappointed its an hour of my life I'll never get back.

That and the fact I should've known better.

Kobi Stevens from Gippsland Power and Jordy Gysberts from Eastern Rangers.

Interesting call on Gysberts.

Almost a 100% guarantee to be drafted but there's a lot of people around that don't think his "AFL potential" quite lives up to his U18 record.

Still a good player though

    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
