    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.

Demonland Player of the Year

Nice numbering system :)

3> Jamar - herculean effort. I've never been resentful of Jolly leaving, but I can't help but smile seeing Jamar pants him twice in one year.

2.5> Moloney - I had great difficulty splitting these two. Massive effort.

2> Garland - Welcome back. Did absolutely everything right today. What a gem.

1.5> Morton - How many times did he get free by half a paddock? Amazing stuff. Not a big accumulator of the ball, but extremely damaging when he gets it.

1> Davey

0.5> Scully

Lots of others considered. I found the top 4 easy to pick, and could've thrown a blanket over another 10 for the next two.

Interesting that you gave Scully votes, since you watched the game on TV (I'm assuming?), because when you're at the ground it's very hard to appreciate the sort of work that this kid does in the packs.

I know everyone is entitled to their opinionn, but i can't beleive Davey does not make it in some peoples top 6 players, he was best on for me, along with Jamar and Moloney.

6. Davey

5. Jamar

4. Moloney

3. Morton

2. Garland

1. Jones

Good point Jerry on Davey. He was superb.

3 - Moloney. he was everywhere. 38 possesions - his best game ever for the club. we were looking at a thrashing and he willed us back into the game. Proud of him.

2.5 - the big Russian - took on 2 opponents and beat them both without support.

2. Davey - 28 possessions but missed at least 4 targets coming out of the backline. He DOES get the hard ball.

1.5 - Garland - 24 possessions -and took the initiative to kick a goal in the second.

1. Jones. tireless - always working so hard at the coalface.

.5 Frawley - a rock in defence and good to see him drift down into the forward line.

Morton did well as an outside player. Hopefully next year he can put on some beef and start winning contested possessions.

Given it was a draw we took half votes from 6 people and had no weighting. This meant we had the same number aggregate number of votes as would be expected.

The Russian is motoring on and grabbed a good lead in Junior's absence:

89.112 Mark Jamar

73.092 Brent Moloney

70.951 James McDonald

65.308 James Frawley

61.653 Jack Grimes

36.527 Jack Trengove

36.483 Aaron Davey

32.347 Colin Sylvia

22.647 Matthew Bate

20.656 Ricky Petterd

19.567 Jordie McKenzie

19.525 Nathan Jones

18.567 Jamie Bennell

This is my first time posting on this site.Spent the last few years reading the comments . Whilst sometimes I shake my head at some opinions what is obvious to me is the level of commitment and feeling for the MFC --take a bow posters.

Todays game was a mixture mostly good some a work in progress and some Arrgg.

Watching on TV my votes (not sure of the amount ??)

beamer

jamar

davey

morton

dunn

I prefer the 6 to 1...but ok:

3 - Jamar - Superb by the big Russian, is getting better as the season goes on and his efforts in last qtrs against Port and now the pies have been inspiring, he gets the nod from me for the interview on ten after the game, he was gutted and blamed himself for Jolly getting the mark that went on to Lockyer. He was gutted and showed how much these boys want it.

2.5 - Davey - hard to split Flash & Beamer.. both super in the last as we pushed for the 4 points. Flash gets my 5 simply for his courage in taking players on and finishing it off with his execution by foot

2.0 - Moloney - I, like so many always seem to want to skip a generation and look for the next captains from the young brigade, Beamer - you have just been throwing up the hand so high this last 12-18 mths - a captains effort yesterday!

1.5 - Garland - Super, super game from Col. It astounds me that people wanted him to have a spell, this guy just needed some game time after 12 mths out of it and he and Chip will be the premier defenders in the comp. Stop the forward line calls, Col is a great defender.

1.0 - Morton - he is THE new AFL players isnt he? Can make some bad decisions at times but this drop away, I wish he would use his height and size a little more in marking contests but this can come in time too. A great game by Cal and another stepping stone

0.5 - Dunn - hard to split Bartram or Dunn, both player defensive roles even though Dunn up forward, I give it to Dunn as he kept Shaw quiet and Davis has been in pretty average form anyway, not much of a point but enough for me!

Apologies to Chip and the entire backline.....gee these guys are good. Jones, Scully, Jetta. Green would've got votes had he finished off his work and won us the game.

................(I'm not giving Moloney top votes because without Jamar, Moloney would struggle to win so much of the ball)

Agree ... they are developing a great understanding. First time I can recall an on-ball working relationship like this at MFC for a very long time!

I'm not into Supercoach, but I was keen to know at least what Jamar & Beamer scored. Couldn't see anything in the papers today. Can anyone give us the scores from yesterday for say our top 6 Supercoach players?

6 Moloney

5 Jamar

4 Davey

3 Morton

2 Garland

1 Bartram

Just watched the game, the first 5-10 minutes cost melbourne the game. Great games for the young kids. Jack Watts was poor for me, a few poor decisions, they will soon disappear from his game with more games under him.

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
