Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

I know I'm a good show to get pasted for this, but I've been watching the Dees on YouTube and I'm planning on being cryogenically frozen until the start of next season. Just like Cartman waiting for the release of the Nintendo Wii, I can't bear the wait.

Here's my team for Round 1 next year. Very hard to assemble. A combination of getting the young kids out there and also getting our seasoned players out there with them.

Would love to see others give their MFC 2010 dream team.

....... Serhat Temel.....

Barry now cowers in a shower of eggs thrown by fellow Dees supporters...

Could happen but very doubtful

If we take him it would be late/rookie

and those players never become full forwards.

I think Bruce and Macca will do what they did in the last half of the season and play of a HBF and a BP respectively.

Garland would struggle to be up for Rd 1 in the AFL.

Scully and Trengove would be ready to go I would think. Strauss, Blease, Maric, and Wonaeamirri should push too.

I would love to see Watts play wing/HFF for 16+ rounds next year.

Bruce, McDonald, Frawley, Warnock, Rivers, Bennell, and Grimes to be the 7 in defence.

Davey, Moloney, Jones, Scully, Trengove, Jamar, Martin, Sylvia, and Morton to be the 9 to run through the middle.

Bate, Watts, Wonaeamirri, Green, Jurrah, and Miller to be the 6 in attack.

Injured players replaced by Petterd, Maric, Cheney, Jetta, Spencer, McNamara, and Strauss.

Ok so to relax everyones fears I was was talking to Colin five minutes ago and his foot is coming along well so its not career threatening.

I think Aaron Davey would make a great captain but hasn't Junior already been confirmed in that role?

Anyone know?

Fair enough, Junior's also a very good captain. I was just a bit misty eyed at Aaron's re-signing for 4 years and at Beamer's heart-felt acceptance speech at the B&F.

I'm a Newton fan, so that's why I have him in, but realistically, Miller or Martin would come into the 22 for him round one you would think. I'm also a Dunn fan, but couldn't squeeze him into the side, I really hope he forces the hands of the selectors and earns a spot. Same goes for Martin.

I tend to believe that we'll structure the team along rpfc's thoughts.

I'd expect both McDonald and Bruce to play across the HBF and BP along the lines of the roles they played in the latter part of the year, with them spending no time in the centre and play a leadership/development role with the likes of Bennell, Strauss, Cheney, Morton and Grimes.

I think we'll see Blease, Jetta, Grimes and Morton to be rotated across the wings, with Jones, Scully and Trengove to be rotated thru the centre. I feel Trengove is the more ready of the top 2 picks to make an immediate impact and would like to see him in the guts in rd 1 (in lieu of Jones) and see him being rotated with Sylvia across the HFF.

I think we're very likely to see Green hold down FF in 2010 for the majority of games. Not only providing support and a foil for Watts (with Miller used sparingly), but also to assist in his development. As a leading forward from the goal square, I believe Green has the potential to kick 60+ goals and coupled with his accuracy makes him the ideal forward mentor for Watts and Jurrah.

This is pretty much where my head is at but don't forget Ricky Petterd, arguably the most versatile player next to Bruce.

Will look to be on a HFF or a wing.

Your the only one with Jurrah at full forward. I really like this idea. Let him play one out in the square, great on the lead, in the air and on the ground.

Makes sense to me.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you his observations from this morning's Captain's Run including some hints at the changes for our ANZAC Eve clash against the Tigers. Sunny, though a touch windy, this morning, 23 of them no emergencies.  Forwards out first. Harrison Petty, JvR, Jack Billings, Kade Chandler, Kozzy, Bayley Fritsch, and coach Stafford.  The backs join them, Steven May, Jake Lever, Woey, Judd McVee, Blake Howes, Tom McDonald

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
