    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.

only if his 100%!!!! If he tears his hammy for the 4th times il loose it.

Give him a month @ Casey to learn how not to hurt himself tackling.

It'll be great to see him playing again. I watched him play his first games @ Sandringham & realised in his first game he was what we needed.

Lets get him right.

No chance of Wonna coming back. Theres no way they would risk it!

Does anyone know how he has been going for Casey? Haven't kept upto date this year.

Normally players come off the injury list and THEN they play for Casey :)

Casey 2's for Wona if passed fit I would think. Due to the fact that it is unfair to play guys who can only be available for half a game in a senior side.

Take him slowly, slowly because its been since 2008 that he's played an AFL game.

That said I really hope that in 4 weeks time he's been able to get enough form and fitness to play up in Darwin.

What's happening with Sam Blease? Not on the injury list and not mentioned in the Casey report last week. Can anyone throw some light on this one?

Geez imagine if we had Liam coming back this week from a dislocated shoulder rather than a reconstruction as was originaly thought.

He dislocated his shoulder, therefore he had a reconstruction to repair the damage. The reconstruction is not the injury, it's the operation. The dislocation WAS the injury Jurrah had.

Bell's fortunate he only dislocated his shoulder. He'd want to do something this season or I think it's curtains.

Bell did his AC joint.

Was due to play in the two's and got a virus. Is right now I believe.

Kelly O'Donnel I think this morning said that he would play this weekend that after a horrendous injury last year was right to play a couple of weeks ago and then was "ill". Did anyone else hear O'Donnell this morning because I thought he said that Tapscott was six weeks away. I think I am wrong given the operation but can anyone help here.

does this mean Tappscott, Gawn, Meesen, and effectively Jurrah are out for the season? Does anyone know whether any of the first 3s injuries are likely to be career ending which will lead to delisting? It sounds as though these injuries are pretty serious.

GAWN is midway through recovery from a knee reco. He will be back in good time.

Jurrah is 10 weeks away after a shoulder injury.

Tapscott had a hip injury and allegedly 6 weeks from training.

Why would we delist Tapscott and GAWN after one year?

Meesen on the rookie list and injured is finished. The foot injury only confirms his prospects when he went to the rookie list.

Don't write Meesen off he may turn out to be a valuable player for us. He is very mobile and was starting to show something before he was injured he would be more anvanced than either Spencer or Gawn and Jamar will need some assistance next year.

Thanks for that

The main AFL website still has last weeks list with Sylvia noted for a test !! http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/92714/default.aspx

There is a footnote " * Please note that Melbourne's list is from last week. It will be updated when available".

Not a good look - hopefully someone from the club will sort this out

they would not have drafted Gawn if they had a doubt his reco would be career ending.

If your career has not started, and you sustain an injury, can it be deemed career ending??

Why is it the Club's problem if AFL's webmaster is slow to update??

It's not a good luck for AFL.com, no reflection on MFC.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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,
