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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
