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.

Must be a pre-requisite that every player under 20 needs to get injured at least once every year.

Must be some issues with the training load or something, this is happening way to much to all the youngsters. Outside of Watts I can't think of a player 20 or under who hasn't been injured at least once in the last 2 years.

You can't remember Watts getting injured?

You can't help bone injuries, only soft-tissue injuries can be "attributed" to the fitness guys (see Essendon).

You can, especially foot stress fractures if you overload young bodies.

I cant actually, thought it was one of his highest points at the moment was the fact that he hadn't been injured.

how wrong i was

well if every MFC player has an injury by the age of 20 is think that it is an indication that somethings not right...

Maybe a little research into what the injuries are before going down the NQR road.

so your saying everything is fine and dandy and there is nothing wrong even though 100% of players under 20 have had an injury at some point in the past 2 years?

and people wonder why players arnt being developed properly, its because there never in the damn park long enough to get form

............or maybe we're being sensible and cautious in our approach to our young players' niggles to avoid complications that are completely unnecessary because we aren't on the verge of a flag.

I thought that having Misson and his elite sports science background was supposed to reduce our number of injuries. We seem to have had more injuries in the first part of the season than we had Pre-Misson!

Get well soon, Josh!

Geez uninformed snipes from anonymous keyboard heroes on the sidelines makes my blood boil.

GTG do you even know the nature of this particular injury?

How can you possibly attribute our injury list to one individual who has been at the club a little over six months?

Are you also claiming the club is in some way responsible for this injury list as they employed Misson?

Do you have a sports science background?

And now that you seem to have identified the problem (Misson) are you going to let someone at the club know?

At some point in the next two years nearly all footballers will have an injury of some sort (pssst- its a high speed collision/contact sport)

well maybe its this sensible and cautious approach which is stunting player development.

take Cook for example, has probably been out injured for more then half of his time at the MFC, and people are complaining about his development.

If this is the result of a 'sensible and cautious' approach then the MFC has some big problems

I was simply wondering why we haven't seen a decrease in injuries since hiring Misson. Misson's job is, amongst other things, to reduce injuries by buiding up fitness bases and helping to control and monitor loads. I never claimed the club or Misson were responsible for the injuries, I just made an observation. I never claimed a sports science background.

You got mighty worked up about a 2 line statement. I hope your blood stops boiling from my 'uninformed snipes'.

This Keyboard Hero is done with this discussion.

I'd rather have injury-free 22 year olds with 50 games experience who we were cautious with in their first couple of seasons than chronic injury-riddled 22 year olds who played injured in their first couple of seasons and can't get on the park.

Playing kids injured will cost them valuable experience in the long-run. There's no point in compounding minor injury issues for the sake of a few games of experience in their first season.

so you would rather a Colin Sylvia running around as a 25 yr old who had his development stunted due to constant injury (or sensible and cautious approach) rather then a Dustin Martin.

I know who i would prefer on the list out of those 2

maybe its this type of approach which is why MFC is getting ripped apart on the field. i would rather have players who want to play with injuries rather then ones who always need a 'sensible and cautious approach'

maybe its just another example of why people call the mfc soft

or why people say that the team dosnt know how to address its issues

If an inordinate amount of players were going down with soft tissue injuries you may have a point... but they're not.

Do the bloody research first before casting aspersions.

Honestly..

It is very hard to address this without breaking demonland rules.

i find the content of your posts very average on a consistent basis.

So James Hird who said that Hurley's injury is so slight that it isnt even called a strain but we take the cautious approach and he will miss one to two weeks - thats soft is it ?

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
