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.

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??

eight minutes into third quarter at the city end and Brad Green near the 50 metre line goes sideways looking for Watts in a contest. greeny of old could have gone back and slotted it. lot of people screaming have a shot. gee it's a long way back home.

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.

Yes, but a captain must instigate....that is not Brad's game. i wish it was.

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

If Toddy is fair dinkum, Green won't be selected next week.

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.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
