  • 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.

nice call. from the reports, t-mac sounds next in line.. mabbe queens b'day for him?

and the Messiah..sounds like they're gonna give him a few games up forward, so.. mabbe Dees v WCE if ready?

Yes, the Dees v WCE game is firming for the Messiah. Wouldn't rule out Q B'day just yet, but that will depend on how he performs this weekend. Last night on Fox Sports, Robbo did mention that the Queens Birthday for Watts as a possible debut. What a debut that would be. If The Pies beat Port with good form, and Jack makes debut Monday week, expect 80,000 plus.

Expect a big one. People are already talking about the game, what time to get there etc. Nice one for the coffers.

Thank goodness it will be his last! He should be marketing it to get the colling#$% army there rather then condeming it.

If there is only one more game that we win for the year I hope its this one and give them a real touch up while we are at it.

Come on Jack, kick a bag tomorrow..... come in for the QB game. You just get the feeling that he might've provided a target that noone else would (or possibly could) tonight against the sainters.

Can someone tell me when the rookies can play? After round 11? Hughes would have to be close.

I really hope its jurrah if soo.

I just poped this in the casey thread as well. Jurrah is a real chance, how good would it be for him to kick a winning goal against the filth late in the last!

I'm obviously biased because of my connection with Liam, but having seen him play football for several years I can honestly say that he plays better, the higher is the standard of the game. With his speed and aerial skills, I reckon he'd find himself on the end of a few passes from Flash. I guess I'm just predicting that he'll prove to be a much better AFL player than a VFL player.

It's probably me, but it feels like Groundhog day.

I know for a fact Jack Watts will be next to debut. He is to line up against the filth on Queens Birthday.

Thats a big statement, anything/source to back up the word FACT? people seem to get a bit twitchy when JW's name is mentioned.

I guess Steamin Demon's facts are excellent......

But your right on people getting twitchy, and are now bordering on fanatical ;) :D !!!

I TOLD YOU SO !!! :lol:

Well done!

Although there still could be a chance he wont play. I don't want to put a dampener on it but on SEN this morning they are reporting that 2 brighton grammer students have tested positive to H1N1. Lets cross our fingers there has been no exposure!

It will be great to see our first three picks from the 2007 draft plus Watts and Bennell, and if the inform Cheney gets a game that will be 6 players of our 22 that we have picked up in the last two drafts, that 27% of the team. We should see Strauss later this year and Jurrah, our match against Richmond it would be great to see Morton, Grimes, Maric, Cheney, Watts, Strauss, Bennell, Jetta, Jurrah, Spencer and the forgotton Aussie, 50% of our team made up from players from the last 2 drafts, I know I'm kidding myself but we might have to to get more game time into these Players as we could be sitting on 4 wins by then.

"2 brighton grammar students have tested positive to H1N1".

Great!!! Let's hope Jack passes it on. I can't think of any team more susceptible to PIG flu than the Mudpies. trouble is, it's such a mild illness that the only way you know you've got it is if you're imprudent enough to have an H1N1 test.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
