  • 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.

Nev's Back!

Jetta is back on the primary list and looking like playing for Casey this week.

Awesome news.

On the down side, Couch is now no longer eligible to play in the senior side. Still, of the two I'd rather see Nev up and going.

Presumably Couchy would be able to fill the vacancy left by Mitch Clark if required?

I'm a fan of Jetta's. Whether he can perform over the remainder of the season may well decide whether he remains on the list in 2013.

Good Luck Nev

Must admit I have a huge soft spot for Nev Jetta, I think this guy can play but it has to be in the midfield or down back. I loved the story of the family moving to Melbourne when he was drafted, I feel sorry for him due to the constant injuries he has had. It is a few years back now but his game against Brisbane at Visy park was one of the most dominate game we have seen from any of our midfielders since, hard was great around the clearances.

I hope he can get his body right for the next 10 weeks, fplay a couple of senior games, dominate finals for Casey and retain his spot on our list for a couple more years. This kid is all heart and deserves some luck.

Will be good for Jetta to have an opportunity to remain on our list, its not over for Nev just yet perhaps.

Although most likely the writing is already on the wall, it is never too late to turn it around,

good luck to Nev, hopefully he knuckles down for the hard work - as he needs to improve a lot to remain on our list.

I think Nev will play a few games at Casey, regain his match fitness and then come into the 1sts. He is hard at it and offers us something different in the midfield mix. I'm not sure if its quite make or break time for him yet as he is still young - dont think either of Bennell or Jetta will be cut from our list at the end of the year.

Speaking of Jettas, it took ages for Leroy to come good. On the other hand Lewis was always a freak. Was playing WAFL 1sts at a young age was the black and white's version of Cyril Rioli.

I expect that Neeld will like Nev's workrate and hardness, and I hope he can stay fit, and put his hand up for senior selection over the next 4 to 6 weeks.

I agree DWA, & hope your right.

Nev is IMO a good type, lacks outright speed, but I think he has some strong skills to add to our list.

I hope he can mature quickly & keep a place to develop further.

You can be a real pain Old Dee...do you ever post anything that doesn't involve sh***** on the Club, the players or other posters?

if anybody actually listens to what the coaches say, at the beginning of the season before he got injured, Jade Rawlings said in public and in a conversation with me at the Family Day that Nev had improved out of sight over the off season....he was fitter than ever.....spoke to him after the injury and Jade said he was [censored] off he had lost him from the back

Although I am biased my MFC jumper has the nr 39 on the back.

Nev will still be at the Club next season

Old dee is allright mate, never any malice in his posts, just loves to take the bait whenever #7 is mentioned.

In fact, If you ever get bored on demonland you can go 'fishing' for old dee. He's a easy to 'catch', goes for a lot of different baits; JB, #7, Bennell, Jamie, old #43, Carey Park Panthers, Jetta's mate, outs for this week, only couple of touches, possible delists etc etc

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    DISCO INFERNO by Whispering Jack

    Two weeks ago, when the curtain came down on Melbourne’s game against the Brisbane Lions, the team trudged off the MCG looking tired and despondent at the end of a tough run of games played in quick succession. In the days that followed, the fans wanted answers about their team’s lamentable performance that night and foremost among their concerns was whether the loss was a one off result of fatigue or was it due to other factor(s) of far greater consequence.  As it turns out, the answer to

    TIGERS PUNT CASEY by KC from Casey

    The afternoon atmosphere at the Swinburne Centre was somewhat surreal as the game between Richmond VFL and the Casey Demons unfolded on what was really a normal work day for most Melburnians. The Yarra Park precinct marched to the rhythm of city life, the trains rolled by, pedestrians walked by with their dogs and the traffic on Punt Road and Brunton Avenue swirled past while inside the arena, a football battle ensued. And what a battle it was? The Tigers came in with a record of two wins f
