    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.

Great to see Bail back playing football.

It will be hard for him to break back into the team, if we don't sustain any injuries (fingers crossed), but nevertheless, good to see that he's recovered from that corked thigh.

Dissapointed Blease hasn't come up, but as long as it's just the one week off then that's ok, it's all about the long term picture for Blease. I'm just shattered that the game was moved from the sunday to the saturday otherwise I would have been there for the 2nd week in a row.

Geez How's the fwd line:

Half forwards MacReadie Dunn Wonaeamirri

Forwards Jetta Newton Miller

That's a fwd line that could well have played for the Dees in the past two years.

Any word on whats happened to offseason Casey recruit Scott Simpson from Geelongs VFL side?

I know he was injured pre-season but thought he would be back by now.

Still no Stefan Martin listed in the side either...

Must have heard what's been happening at the G ... a few of the Dees playing for a place next week I'd imagine!

Absolutely a good day for any Demon in the Casey team to perform well and Brad Miller with four goals would have most certainly thrust his name before the selectors. Gysberts is also pushing strongly for a midfield place.

A good eight goal win for the Scorps who now have a well earned week's break.

MMM said Gysberts had 30 possessions, Miller kicked 4 and was BOG and that Morton, Jetta and Aussie all got through.

Surely Gysberts is getting a game next week. He has really pushes his case in the last month.

Morton 3 goals- a certainty to play.

Wona a certainty if he got through for the Darwin game. The club wants him to play in this game. Plus, he needs to get back in the team eventually, we desprately need some good forward pressure.

Miller or Dunn or Newton >>>> PJ up forward. Surely one of these guys come in.

Gysberts could also get a game if he played well

Be ridiculous to play Wonna now, especially after coming back overweight and out of condition this year. make him earn it and get in the best a couple of times. make the bloke put in as hard as everyone else.

Gysberts is way ahead at present.

Thanks KC. Any views on Bail's game.

Don't think he was selected!

When a spot opens up in the midfield sure Gysberts is a definite selection, but Wonna in needed in the forward line, he would do a lot better than Jones in the forward line. Last week Wonna looked good & to be in the best today well lets face it, he should be selected providing he is fit.

Fingers crossed, it was my first time watching him play last week and he looked pretty good to me. 30 today, hope he is in for the big trip up "norf" :lol:

Simpson actually looked really good last week. The tackle he was reported for was entirely legal. It's pretty much the same thing as Mumford. Also, the guy came up very sick, vomited and had to be helped from the ground B) . I was actually thinking he might get a rookie spot if he continues to show that sort of spirit.

I'd say we need Gysberts in for his ball handling ability in the slippery Darwin Heat. Can't think of too many others atmo.

Is he known for his toughness?

Thanks for the wrap KC. Any news on Bail and his game? I saw he was named on the interchange bench, do you know if he took his part in the game?

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
