    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 help but keep worrying that this has a very good chance of being accurate. I sure hope not.

...BUMP!

Ok, I know it's not October but we basically know the answers except who will be premiers. I'm going to pay out on Jones re B&F and Clark re best first year player.

So the winner with the most correct calls is.... drumroll.... Samsara with 5 and maybe 6 correct if hawks win the flag. Your prize is a dinner for two with cale morton at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

BEST CALLS

Dees best and fairest

These people all got it right with Nathan Jones:

RalphiusMaximus, Macca, Daz's Dee's, WhateverItTakes, Little Goffy, deeflog, billy2803, Steve13, mephis, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew, Samsara, reynolds46, Robbie57 and myself.

Dees best 1st year player

These people all got it right with Mitch Clark*:

RalphiusMaximus, Jack Jack, Samsara

*Altho most interpreted the question relating to only those with no previous experience and so most people chose Magner

Goals clark will kick

Nearest to the pin was DemonAndrew with 33

Games jurrah will play

The pessimists did well with this one!

Nearest to the pin were DemonWA, Daz's Dee's, Jack Jack, DEELIRIOUS, Pates, Deeflog, billy2803, Steve13, mephis, DemonAndrew, Good Times Grimes, reynolds46 and Robbo24 who all said 0. Also Dr. Mubutu said 2

Dees surprise of the year

Best call on this was LJ86 for "Grimes to make it through the season unscathed"

Other correct calls were:

Samsara for "Beat an interstate team away (excluding Port @ Darwin)" ... Although beating GWS in Canberra isn't much of a call, sorry!

reynolds46 for "Jack Watts complimented by former players in the media" I can't remember who it was but I think someone did compliment Watts a couple of months ago.. they might be wanting to retract it though

Premiers

The votes were:

Hawks - RalphiusMaximus, DemonWA, Macca, leucopogon, hardtack, Daz's Dee's, Jack Jack, WhateverItTakes, Crawf52, deeflog, Dee-licious, Steve 13, Dr. Mubutu, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew, Samsara, Good Times Grimes, robbo24 and me.

Geelong - Pates

Melbourne - Little Goffy

Collingwood - Josh, reynolds46

West Coast - Jonesbag, Robbie5

First coach to get sacked

These people all got it right with Primus:

deeflog, Dr. Mubutu, LJ86, double dee, DemonAndrew

Biggest off field controversy

Ok some of these could still occur in the finals, but to date these people got it right with the Jurrah call:

DemonWA, deeflog, Samsara and robbo24 (half-right)

Games won by gws

These people got it right by saying 2:

me, RalphiusMaximus, Samsara

WORST CALLS

Jack Jack

dees surprise of the year? Making the Prelim

Little Goffy

dees surprise of the year? Lucas Cook super-debut

Jonesbag

dees surprise of the year? Aaron Davey becomes AA

Good Times Grimes

dees surprise of the year? Josh Tynan wins the Rising Star award.

Josh

dees best and fairest? - Maloney

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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
