    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.

========================

GWS (Geelong/Ablett via Gold Coast for O'Meara)

Melbourne (Melbourne/Scully)

I would assume that the pick is taken in accordance with where the original owner finishes on the ladder that year? If we finish below Geelong then our selection is before GWS.

So there are 10 teams that finish outside the top 8 and then there are any priority picks and if the Crows and Bulldogs finish below us they get their after first round selection pick.

So it could be pick 11 plus say 2 priorities = pick 13 plus Crows and Bulldogs finish below us 2 = 15 and that is based on us finishing above 10th because we would push it out by another pick for our after first round pick.

Robbie I think the "mid" first rounders are allocated in FIFO sequence, so GWS (ex Geelong) from 2010 pips our 2011 Mid first round. Anyone clarify?

The "first round after club pick" as you say always reverts to position of original club in year being used

yep, either the 2012 draft's gonna have to be really strong for us to pick up some good kids with the compo picks, or we need to trade them for some good quality players (ie. Mitch Clark).

By gee it will be a cracker- however we have 5 years to use them.Plenty of players will be on the market next year as well.

The after first pick selection must be activated or traded next year and no latter. It's value will decrease the higher we finish. End of first round pick can be held on to for 5 years.

Bonza!

I think therefore if we finish

8th - 11 (mid round compo pick) pick 12, pick 13 (compo pick after first live pick)

9th - 10 (mid round compo pick) pick 11 live pick, pick 12 (compo pick after first live pick)

10th - 10 (mid round compo pick) pick 9 live pick, pick 11 (compo pick after first live pick)

11th - 10 (mid round compo pick) pick 8 live pick, pick 9 (compo pick after first live pick)

so on and so forth

Dogs - Sam Reid to be allocated

I've missed something here. Why do the bulldogs get another compensation pick?

I was of the understanding that GWS could only poach one un-contracted player from each club.

Have i missed something here or have the rules magically changed?

They can take as many as they like as long as the club they are taking from allows it. Which in this case the Bulldogs did. They probably figured they would get better compo from the AFL then trying to trade / delist him.

Yep - same thing happened with Rischitelli then Brennan at Brisbane last year with Gold Coast.

No, the Suns actually traded for Brennan to my understanding.

It involved upgrading the Lions pick by about 5 spots so they could get Polec, hence the suns having 3 straight picks before us.

The Lions also got pick 25, on traded from Collingwood for Krakouer, and possibly some other scraps.

You're half right - they did trade but they traded their compensation pick for Brennan with pick 10 for pick 5.

Whilst Jack Viney might turn out to be a star, the chances of our CP's which will be around the 15-20 area are not as likely to net us "star" players.

I know that next years draft is meant to be good, but getting such quality all the way down to pick 15ish??? If there are any "star" players available, i suspect they will be well and truly snapped up before our CP's come into play.

That may be.

We can always wave them around in October, see what happens...

The announcement by the AFL that the Dogs have been handed a third-round compensation selection for GWS-bound Sam Reid seems to have thrown that club into orgasmic raptures of excitement if you believe this beat up from the HUN's Jon Ralph - Western Bulldogs set to pounce on super draft.

The Doggies are going to activate their compensatory picks in anticipation of plundering the 2012 superdraft with two first round selections and ... wait for it ... two third round picks.

It surely has to be the quiet season for news when such hype is made of the Bulldogs' possible selections 13 months in advance over them being awarded a selection likely to be somewhere in the 40s!

No wonder their football manager goes by the name "Fantasia".

    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,

    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
