On October 6, the planet blacked out for two minutes and 17 seconds.

The whole world saw the future...

The television series FLASHFORWARD looks at what happened to the world when an unexplained, cataclysmic event knocked out (almost) its entire population for two minutes and 17 seconds. During that time most people who experience the event get to see a glimpse of their own future on a date six months forward - April 29, 2010.

But what if you were shown a glimpse of your future and didn't like what you saw?

Would you fight hard to prevent what you saw from coming true?

We're inviting all Demonlanders to flash forward to April 29, 2010.

The NAB Cup has come and gone and we're just gotten over Round 5 after playing Hawthorn, Collingwood, Adelaide, Richmond and the Brisbane Lions.

You tell us and our readers what's happening at the Melbourne Football Club in your own flash forward. The best five entries will be included in our Articles and News section some time down the track along with the entry that we judge to be closest to the pin.

This will be posted on both the Demonland Footy Message Board and the Jordan McMahon Drafting and Trading Board.

Melbourne are 2-3 and sitting at 11th, the wins coming from a one-point thriller over Collingwood, and a comfortable forty point victory over Richmond.

Jack Trengove picks up the Rising Star nomination for round 1 while Tom Scully is not far behind, a 25-posession game in round 4 gaining the nomination.

Jim Stynes has fought back the brunt of his cancer and is up-and-at-em again, a being a regular in the cheer squad.

The meteoric rise of Liam Jurrah continues, a huge preseason seeing him in the top-10 goalkickers already.

The debt has slowly declined over summer and perhaps by August it will have been demolished entirely?

The membership tally is chasing the record at a tick over 29,000.

The Demons have a bright future!!!

Melbourne gave fans plenty to like after round 1 against Hawks, where Melbourne just got pipped by 5 points. Great games from Davey and Sylvia first up.

Against Collingwood, Jamar was able to challenge Jolly and got a fair share of first use to Jones, Moloney and Scully. Dees notch up their first win against the old enemy.

High from their first win of the season, Dees go in confident, but unfortunately this young side is unable to back it up. Jurrah is a highlight with a 4 goal bag.

Richmond are sitting in 1-2 under new coach, Hardwick, and come into this game against Melbourne with some confidence, but Scully hits his straps for a 25 possession, 2 goal game, including 3 clearances. Taking the game away from the Richmond midfield with the assistance of Davey and Grimes. Bate kicked 3 goals.

Brisbane have looked fearsome so far and sit at 3-1, Fevola and Brown kicking a combined 23 goals between them already. Fevola goes down with a heel injury in first 5 minutes, and without another forward target, Frawley and Warnock ensure Brown has no impact. Melbourne run out 18 point winners. BOG goes to Sylvia with 23 possessions and 3 goals off HFF.

after 5 rounds, Melbourne sit 2-3 at 12th, and their season sits in the balance.

Trengove seems to have settled in well, and was playing consistently, unfortunatly scully suffered from a bit of close treatment first game, but was raring to go week after with a Rising Star nom vs Collingwood.

Jurrah already had 12 goals, was very hard for oppostion to match up.

Watts struggled early, but had solid games running off HFF against Adelaide and Brisbane, had 7 goals.

Petterd had rewarded his coaches faith in him after a terrible NAB cup, and was consistently getting possessions and is a standout.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
