    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 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.

Have there ever been more stories or "I heard" anecdotes about one kid? Dwayne the moron Wussell is going to have a field day.

Anyway, I heard the final Expandables movie is only going to have one cast member, Jack Viney. There's an evil clone of him and they have to fight 'til the death. The movie goes for 9 hours and there is no ending.

tsk tsk you omit the AFL TOC first rover, HOF Legend and triple brownlow medallist Bobby (Chimp) Skilton. He was actually proficient with both feet (more accurate on left) and a renowned expert of the daisycuttter

Before my time, but would have loved to see him play.

I'm pretty stoked Jack's gone second round. Watching him perform in the U18 GF last year I was pretty impressed. Can't wait to see him in the jumper, sit back and watch him progress and perform.

I'm also happy for the little black ducks out there too.

Todd was my favourite Dee and would have been gutted had we missed out on Jack, love hard nuts and we need them. From what I have seen everything about this kid has had me saying just get this kid.

Couldn't be happier, icing on the cake for me would be Hogan & Toumpas!

Welcome Jack looking forward to seeing you run out next year

I heard the movie 'Braveheart' is not actually about William Wallace, it is a biopic about JV. Same with 'Gladiator'.

His number ? Possibly 26? Lol

Has already been asked what number he would like a while back and his response was "24.... because I'm twice as good as the old man" Cheeky bugger!

Oakleigh made the grand final this year. Jack played for them last year i believe.

Did Jack play for Oakleigh in the u18's grand final this year?

if not...why not?

Was decided by the Club that he'd play for Casey and school footy (where he could) for the year, leaving him no time to play for the Chargers.

IIRC Jack didn't play TAC cup this year, as he was playing VFL until his broken jaw

Anyone that thinks Viney is purely an inside mid go and watch his highlights on MFC website. His initial acceleration is excellent which is more important than speed over longer distances.

I came on to write the exact same thing. His acceleration looks extremely good. It's been an issue of mine recently with Melbourne players such as Trengove and Watts who do not put enough in to their first five steps. Viney will shake the midfield up next year.

that makes three of us... funny that...

he's referred to as an inside mid, but I see him doing more of his damage outside as he spreads from the contest so well... he's ability at the champs to not only win the ball, but then get on his bike and get it back, shows he can really do some damage outside as well as in...

This guy has captain written all over him. He knows all the right things to say, very impressed such a good speaker for a kid of such a young age.

I was smilling the whole way through that interview.

Number 26.

Lol..

I don't want to hear any words about any curse from now on. The football gods can smile on us too.

I think the dark clouds are clearing up. I am jacked!!!!

#12 for JV, I wore #12 way back in year 12 in '92 as TV was and still is my favourite Dee. If JV lives up to his old man I'll be a very happy chappy. if Col don't like giving up 12 for the son of a gun he can have a preseason boxing match against JV.... I'd back the kid :)

You know Sylvia's nickname is "The Kid".

You really want Sylvia to have ANOTHER injury-interrupted preseason?

If Barty moves on and 3 is available then symbolically is everything his old man was,added up,as well as being the real value (pick) he was/is to us.

It's just an if.

Not a bad thought, however if either of 3 or 5 are available i'd give them to Hogan IMO.

31 to Viney - uncompromising ruck rover, driven to succeed

    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

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
