  • 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.

Surely Jones is more worthy of a Round One spot than an unproven Blease.

We won't draft Panos, Daw would be a long-term prospect, Blease will be under-done and Trengrove isn't a forward.

Trengove.....is a midfielder who can play up forward or even half-back. Same with Morabito he can also go forward.

Then by all means please, tell me out of that 22 who would you have them in place of?

By all means, your saying they should earn it.... who should be there in their place?

I dont care who they replace. If they are good enough... they play. Enough of the pretence

Strauss, Blease and our #2, #18 picks will start in the VFL.

Scully can play off the bench.

Garland may also begin the year in the VFL.

Bruce might be on the out next year if his disposal does not improve

I'm sorry, is this 2003?

Bruce has always delivered helicopters, and he is constantly one of our best players. Top 3 in the Bluey I would say.

He will not be 'on the out.'

@most peoples

i dont think theres room for garland, frawley, warnock and rivers in our backline, way too top heavy,

also jimmy should definately start in the best 22 had a better season than jones/mclean imo.

Yes, I thought the same. He has the height. Maybe Morton to CHF, Jurrah to FF and Watts to HF then.

i see him more as a goodes type player, anyway hopefully watts will be filling this position.

****ADD 1ST PICK IN PRE-SEASON DRAFT

It is about time we snagged a gun uncontracted player. Preferrably a key tall forward.

Craig Hutchison said on footy show that the Bulldogs board have come out and said that Brian Lake will not be traded, and therefore if he doesn't sign, he will be forced into PSD...... I'm assuming he will re-sign with the Dogs, but IF he does declare for the PSD, then A) Would the Dees take him given we have Garland, Frawley, Rivers and Warnock already? MORE IMPORTANTLY B) Would we be able to trade our #1 PSD pick to other teams ie (Hawthorn) that are desperate for a Key defender of the quality of Brian Lake and what would we be able to command in return... pick #9 in national draft perhaps?

brian lake will almost definitely be AA this year, ofc we would take him in an instant, even geelong with perhaps the only better FB in the game would take him. lake is worth more than pick 9 in national draft... a lot more.

Giving Bartram a start over Moloney is a bit rich. Moloney's coming off a great year, will do well in the B&F. Bartram, on the other hand, is no certainty to even be on our list next year.

Far comment regarding Bartram- I think Bartram has good upside- do not forget the year before he came off a knee injury. However, accept your point re Maloney,but as my interchange shows- many could take Bartram's place.

    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
