  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    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.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Can't say I agree with people giving votes to Davey (especially 5/6 votes wtf?) only had 14, and Jones had a field day. Struggle to see how Green wasn't in our best 6 either.

6. Trengove. Super game....remember, he has only played 13 games of AFL football! Looked like he'd played 103 today. Bit more strength and depth in the kicking, a damn fine player he will be. No doubt has been the better of the two between he and Scully without taking anything away from skull.

5. McKenzie - back to his early season form

4. Bruce - better use of the ball today

3. Dunn - pretty effective considering we just can't get it inside 50 enough

2. Frawley - had the better of Milne though let him slip away a couple of times

2. Watts - encouraging and I'm giving him one. Just doing some better things each week. At times should go a bit harder at it but is getting that slowly. The kick from 50 in the second was all class really.

He missed a goal from 8m directly in front. Anyone who does that after playing for 6 years does not deserve any votes.

It might sound harsh, but that was such an epic fail, it was criminal!

In Davey's case don't be misled by stats. Look at the quality of his possessions and the one percenters.

If you need to rely on statistics, then you're not watching the game.

6 - Watts - played 4 solid quarters , unlike most others

5 - Trengove - always kept running and involving himself

4 - Bruce - excellent first half only

3 - Green - clasy when he could get it , which was probably not regularly enough

2 - Dunn - showed some zest though body language can be improved

1 - Frawley - lowered his colours to Milne , but kept at task

And so do the likes of Roughhead, Mooney and Kosi. Forwards will miss them from time to time. I know you hate him Jaded, but considering the ball hardly ever gets into our F50, he did alright today.

Killed by the umpires, who kept giving that little shite Milne the benefit of the doubt when doing 360 degree turns into a tackle and trying to take 10 players on.

What the hell does one have to do to get a holding the ball these days? And don't get me started on the chase that was paid a trip because the [censored] couldn't keep his feet. ARGH! :lol:

I don't hate anyone who plays for Melbourne, but Dunn's kicked 9.14 this season, which is terrible.

We'll he fits in well at Melbourne Jaded!

I can see what your saying but not sure it would've mattered all that much. Would you rather he drop his head & not compete after that? You have to admit he was pretty good both on his opponent & as a forward when it actually got anywhere near it considering it was only there 30 times?

Love and share your admiration for Watts Jaded so you should know how difficult it was as a forward for us today? Jack was terrific considering, impressing more by the week.

Always make sure I decide my votes before reading any of this. IMO Davey was fantastic today. I thought it odd that anyone else would feel otherwise.

Also good signs from Watts, and Spencer.

Dissapointing result, but I was still happy with our efforts today.

Play for Collingwood, Geelong or StKilda for a start... Also avoid tackling Judd, Hodge and Ablett, because there is a little known clause in the rulebook stating that they are never to be called for holding the ball (it would detract from gate receipts). Also being married to the Umpire's unfortunately featured older sister is a good step, although they have been known to look favourably on gifts of rare and expensive wines, European automobiles and holidays to exclusive resorts (the latter is a well-used tactic of Carlton, the Board members of which own several).

I hope this gives us all a clearer understanding of the rules in question and how to use them to your advantage.

worse was Dunn's goal which he dribbled through from 40m. the choice of kick was absolute brain fade. he's just lucky it went through. unforgiveable. if someone doesn't give him a whack around the ears for that low percentage effort, we're as good as stuffed.

someone can tell him to shave that piece of **** of his upper lip too. it's a disgrace.

my votes:

6 - trengove

5 - mckenzie

4 - bruce

3 - jamar

2 - chip frawley

1 - bennell

    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. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
