Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

I can’t see this working very well, but he is costing them sod all. And the jags will be poor so nothing lost if it doesn’t work.

Pats seem to be offering for him. It will be weird seeing him in anything but a Flacons top.

I just love how it took till 33 to decide he might need to try another position!

Pats have been on a shopping spree, wouldn't be surprised.

Consolation prize for you @Gorgoroth  You're the winner of the post season tipping comp!  Well played and good tipping.  I'll post up the overall tallies sometime in the next day or so.  2nd goes

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

The season is just around the corner. The Real Goat, AD99 goes 5x99 on Madden, Akers is out for the year, Stafford ready to take QB1 for the Rams.

Rodgers shows up to training camp for the one last dance, Adams hasn’t committed to the packers either.

NFL strict rules about vaccination has upset some, including Hopkins. The Rams fan in me hopes he sits out the year. ?

OBJ seems to be flying, Barkley looks fit again. 
Can the Bills build on last year? Can KC bounce back? What will the Steelers deliver this year? 
Daks back… will it matter?

Can’t wait for the season to start!!!

Just over a month before we kick off the season ... that came up quick!! 

Not really in the swing of things just yet but there is certainly a lot going on especially at the Packers!  Stafford/Rams is an interesting one but it could be a good match-up

All the vision I’ve seen from practice is very positive. Some good connections with DJax long down the field but that threat makes me smile at the extra space Kupp will get as the field stretches. Kupps route running with Staffords arm and timing I hope becomes a thing of beauty.

As I was saying @Macca

Stafford to Jackson. Against the cowboys.

Full stadiums for all venues (at this stage)

Another sport that needs crowds ... some other sports not so much

I'll post up a brief preview on the tipping comp soon enough but I don't see any reason to change anything

3 road winners with 1 or 2 points up for grabs depending on the week (week 17 -  3 points)

Def needs crowd and in terms of LA, fan fights the very first time they had fans in it.

Anyone watching Hard Knocks? Rolled my eyes when I first heard it would be Dallas but after seeing Elliott’s inability to wrap a birthday present and Jerry Jones having a cheeseburger while on the phone to his the head athletic trainer there could be some value in this season! :p

Sippos makes it as Eagles punter. Great work.

On the Rams, Hekker manages to keep the punting job and his comp is traded to the packers. Sony Michel is traded to the Rams to replace Akers. Atwell showed some and will be the punt returner and maybe a small amount of snaps. I would love to see him and Jackson both run deep at speed with Stafford throwing.

 

I have swindled the Friday and Monday off round one so that’s going to be great for me and horrible for the wife 😂

@Gorgoroth  @Dappa Dan  @DeeSpencer  @JV7  @Dee Zephyr  @Go the Biff  @titan_uranus  @layzie  @cowboy_from_hell  @Clintosaurus  @DemonDave  @pantaloons  @Strafford 

Tipping comp again?  We get 5 or 6 starters it's a goer

Reigning champions are Clintosaurus & titan_uranus whilst all previous winners include Clintosaurus (twice),  Gorgoroth (twice),  Dappa Dan,  JV7,  DeeSpencer,  Cowboy_from_Hell,  titan_uranus & Strafford.

From 3 picks tip 3 road winners in any given week is the task at hand (for those new to this thread) 

Various points are on offer as we work our way through the season in order to find an overall winner.  It's a breeze (apparently!)

Weeks 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 & 14 are worth 1 point (for 3 correctly tipped road winners) and weeks 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 & 16 are worth 2 points (week 17 is worth 3 points)

Lines aren't in yet but here are the games for week 1

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
