  • 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.

another one to be considered

Once a leg is broken like his was, that's it.

The game is too fast now you only have to talk to Nathan Brown.

Goose maybe excellent coach material down the line though. He was highly respected at linton st.

I seem to remember SEN reporting that he signed a 1 year deal a few weeks back

guess not SEN tend to make it up as they go along sometimes

Then again, SEN might not have made up that story at all.

My contact at St. Kilda suggests that the delisting of McGuire was a little unexpected and there's some speculation that the Saints could be trying to make room under the salary cap to allow a new offer to be made to retain Luke Ball.

Makes a bit of sense but didn't they offer him 500k for three years, surely they wont be going to offer him more

Before a horror run of Injuries Goose was right up there with the best KP defenders in the comp. Sadly like many players injuries have shortened his career. He will get picked up this year being that it is a "thin" draft, however I cannot see how a side that is pushing for youth and speed can make use of a good footballer who has been slowed and is nearing 26 years of age.

I wish him the best of luck finding a new home, can't see it being with the dees.

Not sure how we would actually get him but if fitness proved he might be worth an interested look at.

We have enough KpB

Martin

Frawley

Garland

Rivers

Warnock

Adding goos to the list would take of those players spots/ another players spot on the actual list.

Martin and Garland may play forward.. a fit Goose would eat Rivers for ability to take a forward.. frawley and Warnock are good. Martin is even pinch hittin gin ruck..his future may not be down back at all. We'll wait and see if Garland comes up to it this year

A back line up including Warnock Frawley and Maguire wouldnt be too shabby.

I wont a top team...not a team of my 'fav" players.. who cares whose out there in Red and Blue as long as they respect the jumper and give their all.

its not a mates party !! its AFL footy

Dont tell sam blease that

Sam Blease certainly hasn't helped his situation any Good by breaking his leg, Fortunately as he is still Growing he should be ok.

Bones heal better when they are still Growing. But only time will tell.

Go after him I say he is 25 had a year of recovery in the VFL and is no longer pigeonholed as a backman considering he kicked 5 goals on more than one occasion for Sandringham this year. Is only 25 and fits in with our youth policy. Would be silly not to look at him.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy.

    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,
