  • 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.


AFL Employee leaked info about indigenous players


BarrassHarrass

Recommended Posts

Gerard Whately just mentioned that the senior player is Aaron Davey. I wonder if the events of this week will lead to Davey remaining in the team as a show of faith in our indigenous players.

I suppose to some extent, this could have had an affect on Davey's performance on Saturday evening if this was already coming to light at that time... if he was the alleged source, then I expect he would have known what was coming. You have to wonder how much pressure these guys can take when all they really want to do is play footy.

Maybe that's what the [censored] who spread the rumour wants you to believe, because he needs somebody to blame for this fabricated load of garbage.

Caroline Wilson says that Davey, the only senior indigenous player at Melbourne, personally flat out denied this crap. I will believe Caro everyday of the week and twice on Sunday before I listen to Robinson.

We might have a rubbish midfield, we might have a boring game plan, our coach might possibly be planning to murder our players, but we are not a racist club who treats their indigenous players with such disrespect. Move on.

Robbo was just restating what Caro had said obviously, so I'm not sure why you are having a go at him here. And I don't think we should move on in this case... justice should not just be seen to be done, it MUST be done... heads must roll... Misfud and Thomas must pay and our club must be completely exonerated of any involvement.

How can the AFL/Demetriou expect people to take them seriously if Mifsud remains as an AFL employee? Doesn't the AFL have an "integrity" office? Surely they should be investigating this. We should demand some explanations and Mifsud's head on a platter. I hate to always refer back to the other mob, but can you imagine the fallout if this was said/reported about Malthouse or Buckley at the Pies? Eddie would be on a crusade. Stand your ground Demons and let the AFL know we won't be the whipping boy anymore. If this means we are on the outer with the Fat Controller and his mob so be it. Our integrity is more important than the AFL's corruption.

This is a disgraceful situation

The problem I have is does this unamed

source really exist ?

Are we expected to take Misfud at face value ?

I smell a rat

Mifsud has brought the AFL into disrepute. On that basis alone, he should be fired. Not to mention the fact that he can no longer adequately perform his job, since the players don't trust him to keep his mouth shut anymore.

Just because Davey (allegedly) said it was not true to Caro does not mean he is the one Mifsud is referring to as the "source"

Davey could just be saying that the allegation of the mfc indigenous players not having individual briefings with Neald was untrue - thats all

No doubt more "facts" will come to light shortly

What a f.....g media mess after last years f......g media mess with gws

So we have AFL360 saying that it is a senior mfc indigenous player, Gerard Whately saying it is Davey, and 3AW saying it is a former MFC player.

And several other possibilities. But don't worry about that, let's just get out the pitchforks NOW.

No Jaded, this our Line in the sand, for our Demons are from within. We have to clear up this mess ourselves. Or we will never recover.

We have this and a shellacking at Subi to deal with in the ensuing days.

Vlad's reading of the situation is very very poor.

Mifsud MUST go his situation in any role with the AFL is untenable.

Mifsud is in a position of authority and he has very poor judgement.

Mifsud can't expect the AFL to read the situation and accept his resignation.

Meesa thinks Aaron is about to get some more $ rolling in, courtesy of channel 10, Whately and all who claim him to be the shooter on the grassy knoll.

And why not, sue them all for every cent they have.

Time to stop being nice guys

"Neither Demetriou nor Mifsud would identify the person who provided the wrong information, although there is strong suspicion the person is either employed by, or has an association with Melbourne.

When it was suggested to Demetriou that Thomas and Mifsud's reputations had been sullied, but Mifsud's source had escaped without any sanction, the League boss said this might not yet prove to be the case.

He said this person had been presented with a series of facts that were then misconstrued and incorrectly relayed to Mifsud."

Can I ask in what whay shape or form does this imply a player within the club??....that last line shows that it was someone who was told something and then decided to add some condiments tot he story and told mifsud, who like an idiot just told Thomas.

If i was Neeld i would take demetriou's advice and sue Thomas and Mifsud and the AFL as his employer.

Does anybody have David Williamson's number? Surely there's room for The Club 2

When you buy a Dees membership you really do get the full package.

Aaron has been very quick to acknowledge Jasons apology despite Jason having not named names.

    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

    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,
