  • 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.

After his off play free kick in the 3rd QTR, he must be stood down as captain and sent back to the 2's.

Make it happen this week.

No leadership skills whatsoever.

Totally agree

Do you think you could label your topic as a question rather than a statement it would add some accuracy and save me the trouble of readuing it.

You idiots

Go on then, explain to us all how this bloke has done anything right as captain this year. I think he should remain on the list next year, but if he serves up games like he has this year, feel no remorse in dropping him.

He's been pathetic this year, get him out of the Captain's chair and put in Trengove

why???....he has been no good as Captain, he can't handle pressure or something, he needs to go back and just be able to concentrate on own game.

It's such a pity that there are so many supporters on this forum take out their own personal frustrations on our players. If you have played the game to any modest standard you would have far greater respect for the skill effort and challenge of these players pushing their guts out for our enjoyment. What happened to Tappy and Straus today could have happened to any one of our players. These are freak accidents and they do it for our pleassure and if you get no pleasure out of just supporting our team then go an look for something else to do with your life.

Bit off Topic there H. i hope Brad stays on our list next year, but he is no captain. And yes it has been a large disappointment this year.

If this broken down old club is going to prosper we have to make the right decision about the Captain.

To be absolutely honest, i am not sure who it should be, but it sure isn't Brad Green sadly....

There lies one of our main problems....

The fact is that Brad was the best choice of captain at the time and still is now.

Everyone is getting frustrated and want him gone thinking it couldn't get any worse. But it can.

No one else on the list is ready to be captain.

Trengove should be concentrating on his own game. He is a second year player. Calls for him to be captain are crazy and not well thought out. Watts has barely played 10 good games. He is not an option for captain.

Is Brad a [censored] captain? Hell yes. But we have no one to replace him with. If we made Moloney or Davey captain, we would be having the same discussion next year about them.

sadly you are Spot on....Brad is a nice guy who does love our club, but the captaincy has become a ball & chain around his ankles.

Do any of his tackles stick this year??

Last year Brad had a great year playing all over the ground. I would love for Viney to put him back in the middle and tell him to get into it.

Lets admit it. Our delivery into our forward line is appalling. He looks good in a win because the ball comes to him.

Top player over the course of his career and i'd be happy to see him play again next year.

I'd be disgusted if he plays next year as captain. He's been a failure as a captain, must either stand down or be removed post season and concentrate an his own game which has been very poor this year

Read this in the Age today, quoted to Brad Green in regards to Dean Bailey.

"I totally feel sorry for the guy, the playing group loved him, he's a great man. But them's the breaks when you're out of contract and you get done by 32 goals."

The quicker he is no longer captain the better.

Fair call... What about Jamar as captain? At least he is solid at the game. We should forget about the captain being media and sponsor savvy for now and just have a captain who can lead, in a fashion. If Jamar is enticed away from the club as is rumoured, then what about Stef as captain?

GGggguuhhh! I was fuming when I read that rubbish! Thems the breaks when you have no leadership by your captain and leadership group.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    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,
