    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.

Bummer for Cook and Gysberts, can't take a trick either one. Wondered why Gysberts wasn't mentioned in the Casey reports, he'd been good the previous week.

two weeks is no big deal for cook but that's ages for gysberts....

You are right he can do a bit of growing while he is waiting

And 6+ weeks means round 8 at best it would seem for Gysberts.

Add in that he has not been in great form up to now and 2012 is starting to look

like a disappointing year for him.

From the Herald Sun

Footy Barometer - Round 2

MELBOURNE

INJURED: 

Leigh Williams (back) test

James Strauss (leg) 1-2 weeks

Colin Sylvia (back) 4 weeks

Jake Spencer (knee) 7 weeks

Michael Evans (back) indefinite

Liam Jurrah (wrist) indefinite

Rory Taggert (back) indefinite

Max Gawn (knee) season

ON THE BLOCK: Mark Neeld said straight after Saturday’s loss there would be changes, and there’s plenty of Dees who would be sweating. Sam Blease failed to have an impact before being subbed, Matthew Bate was ineffective when he came on, debutant Josh Tynan was just OK and Clint Bartram had just eight kicks. Even veterans Brad Green and Aaron Davey were well below par, while Brent Moloney was well down on last year.

ON THE CUSP: Hard-bodied VFL rookie Tom Couch was superb for Casey and has already been promoted. Expect him to debut in Round 2, while Cale Morton, Tom McDonald (three goals) and swingman James Sellar also impressed.  

SAM LANDSBERGER’S FORECAST: Oh dear. An appalling Round 1 effort followed by the toughest trip in footy – a flight to Perth to face the red-hot Eagles. The stretch between Rounds 3-5 will be telling for the Dees with winnable games against Richmond, Western Bulldogs and St Kilda.

Compare MFC website with the Hun.

MFC Website Hun

Spencer 1 week 7 weeks

Strauss Test (Concussion) 1 week (leg)

Jurrah (Wrist) 3 weeks Indefinite (Must believe he is...)

Hard to take injury lists seriously.

And I will only be confident about Magner when I see him mobile in Perth on Saturday

I wouldn't take Petterd to Subi after a couple of weeks of soreness in the Legs. give him a week @ Casey to settle.

Same with Strauss. Only played one VFL game I think.

So the others have to come from last weeks Casey Team. Sellar, Couch, TMcDonald, Morton, Bennell ?

Curious.

No Dan Nicholson and no James Magner on the injured list.

Nicholson missed last week but isn't on the injury list although at least on Internet poster has stated that he heard Nicholson say he was likely to miss another couple of games. He was seen a fortnight ago at Casey Field wearing a moonboot (& stating it was a precaution).

Right?

Magner limped off with what appeared to be an ankle injury.

One of these blokes is in line for the this week's Mystery injury of the Week come Thursday night!

I doubt Magner will miss. For all we know it's just a minor knock or twisted ankle and they pulled him off rather than risk a real injury. It's not like he's a kid who needs to be babied through the season.

Yeah, I forgot about his Limp.

Maybe they're just assessing whether he'll miss or Not?

Strauss appears significantly under done given only one game to date after his horrendous injury

Magner limped off a couple of times. Appeared to be severe cramp.

I hope so. I get no comfort from his absence from the injury list.

I doubt Magner will miss. For all we know it's just a minor knock or twisted ankle and they pulled him off rather than risk a real injury. It's not like he's a kid who needs to be babied through the season.

We dont know anything about his injury and his age may have little to do with it if the injury is serious.

Taggert. What a mad pick up that was.

Agree. We should have foretold the future and known he would have done his back. Bloody BBP! Here were the comments on his selection at the time. I am sure you felt otherwise but remained silent.

    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,
