    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.

can't say i'd be to unhappy with either temel or panos with pick 18 if we go the two midfielders with one and two. also, if lovett finds his way to us in the pre season draft, i think that would offset the opportunity cost of jetta with pick 18. think then we really would have the makings of a pretty good side. add the class mids, pace in the midfield to give davey a chop out and maybe allow him to roam the forward 50 a bit more, and the power forward to complement watts in the coming years. correct me if i'm wrong but i think lovett's the same age as davey. think a change of scenery would be good for him, just as long as his off field issues don't negatively impact our indigenous boys.

Was on TAC Cup FutureStars today and is an impressive lad. Will be a definite player.

I rate him as a FF, but I still don't think he's quite right for our team.

Doubt he'll still be on the board at 18 though, so it won't be a decision we have to make.

I have a feeling the Doggies will pick him up.

Have you seen him play. If so, and I rate you as a judge-he will be a player. Yep- I acceopt the Bullies may pick him up however,Scott, Crocker etc.. were there yesterday and quite impressed- He will be a player. The most impressive tall in the TAC finals overall. BY FAR.Unfortunately feel now- Pick 18 will not get him.

If you haven't seem him live- you will have the opportunity to watch him on Foxrel live next Friday night.

This is why im hoping we can trade for another 2nd round pic, would be great to be able to get two of carlisle temel or griffiths.

I'm blindly hoping that Carlisle or Griffiths slide massively due to injuries and we can get both, or one and Panos, Talia, Temel...

Suffice to say, I think we need to load up on bigs.

That is the truest thing you have stated in a long time- talls we need. Again as you have stated earlier along with two top midfielders. Or maybe a top midfielder and a tall as our first two picks?

I'd prefer Scully/Trengrove -- Temel,Carlisle(you will see them both next Friday,or Panos)- Hey?

Serhat Temel, Jake Carlisle, Aaron Black, Daniel Talia, Matthew Panos, Ben Griffiths... there seems to be a bevy of them, so we're sure to get a good big.

Just remains to be seen whom.

And I am by no means an expert on them, having seen not one of these guys live.

(oh, but our first 2 picks will be midfielders, no doubt)

Interesting to note that Hutchie on Footy Classified believes we should pick a midfielder and a tall in our first two picks.

Maybe Scullt/Temel ?

yeah well who gives a crap about what Hutchy thinks. There are no talls in this draft worthy of pick 2, i would say that Trengove and Martin are miles ahead of any tall.

Scully and Trengove for me thanks. Scully is academic, and i reckon Trengove is bridging the gap between the two of them. Trengove is a must IMO.

If we want a tall there will be one available out of Butcher, Panos, Carlisle, Griffiths, Black and even Temel, come pick 18 (if we haven't upgraded).

Of those talls, the last 4 would be most likely to be around when it's our turn to pick. I wouldn't mind getting more info on Black

so out of the tall options we have

temel

griffiths

carlisle

panos

talia

(daw)

There are some others to be considered although, I think, late picks or rookies. Playing tonight are:

CASBOULT, INNES,MITCHELL FOR STINGRAYS

MITCHELL, LAWTON FOR CANNONS.

HOWEVER IT IS TEAMING DOWN HOWEVER WITH THE ROOF SHOULD SHOW GOOD SKILLS. WATCH TONIGHT.

AWAIT YOUR FOLLOW UP THOUGHTS.

Listening on the radio... Boy oh boy can this guy still be around pick 11? If not, at very least it knocks the other quality down a peg. Quick question for those who have been watching this year and today... Is he ahead of Butcher now?

Mitchell looked OK he is big and mobile good hands, might be worth a look. Temel finished with 5 goals for the day.

Pick 18 at the most!

Very, very impressed. I can't comment on any of the other boys but this kid looks the real deal. He moves well his hands are good and he is big and strong.

196 cm gorilla forwards who move well aren't that common..... and he performs in finals under pressure. I think the has kicked 20 goals in 3 games?? Has an air of confidence about him too.

Doesn't move to far from goal so either that is his role or he is limited by his fitness. I would be very pleased to see him on our list.

Just got home from the game-- good game great effort from Calder coming from 7th. Geat to see my man-TEMEL-KICK 5.

I REALLY CAN SEE HIM IN THE RED & BLUE. i THINK MALONEY CAN TEACH HIM TO BOX AND WOW IS ALL I CAN SAY.Mitchell played a great game too- they both play well together - but I can see WATTS/TEMEL pairing. THE GOOD THING ABOUT THEM BOTH IS THEY CAN PLAY FF OR CHF AND WILL MOVE UP THE GROUND IF NEEDED.

Serhart is a done to earth guy but will give his all. Good body now but can be built up beautifully. I am waiting and looking forward to Nuggat Jones report.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
