    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 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 believe the deal is 3 and 13 to GWS for Hogan and pick 20. That's the way it reads on The Age website.

i dont believe that, Adelaide got a pick back last year from only about pick 7? no way we are the ones throwing in the extra's in this.

i see it being a 3 for Hogan and 20 or jed Anderson or all 3

Melbourne is believed to be close to securing a trade of pick three (and possibly pick 13) with GWS for pre-listed under-age key position star Jesse Hogan and pick 20.

GWS don't really care about pick 20 let's be honest. We'll get it back for using pick 4.

Furthermore even better news quote from Emma Quayle from twitter:

No-one would be happier about coming to Melbourne than Jesse Hogan. Mad Demons supporter.

Even though he lives in WA he follows the Dees. I want to poo myself for how perfect this relationship is.

pick 13 added is too much, what does your second sentence indicate?

i would think pick 3 or 4 and getting pick 20 back in return

If, as is being suggested, Hogan is the Ox in waiting for 2014, should we really be paying much to get Dawes? Wouldn't we be better off going for more skilled mids? Williams may be able to fill a role in 2013 with another preseason.

If we "over-pay" you need to take into consideration that GWS enabled us to get Jack Viney at 26 instead of 3.

Yep. That has been raised in this forum weeks ago.

We clearly haven't got off scot-free for landing Viney in the second round. If it means paying overs for Hogan, of all players?

Where do I sign?

Sorry looking back my wording is poor, I mean GWS don't really need 13 or 20, it's not those picks they're worried about, they just want pick 3 over 4.

We should get pick 20 back without using pick 13 as a sweetener. Pick 3 is exactly what they want and giving us 20 as a thankyou is a great deal for both.

Pick 3 for Hogan and pick 20

Then use pick 20 to Collingwood for Wellingham (If West Coast don't want to use their first rounder).

If they do use their first rounder use it on Dawes.

Either way pick 3

= Hogan + Wellingham

or at worst

Hogan + Dawes

My thinking exactly. In 2014 we will more then likely have Hogan and Clarke. I don't see a place for Dawes in the side considering he can't ruck and play forward as the pies tried to make him do this year.

GWS were clearly intent on getting picks 1, 2 and 3 so they'll be super happy. We 'enabled' that to happen.

Thinking about it, trading pick 3 or pick 4 will be merely splitting hairs. If we trade pick 4, GWS will simply take Toumpas at 2 and just pick up Grundy at 4, as there is almost no chance we'll pick him up.

Whereas pick 3 looks better on paper, and we will essentially be picking up the same player as if we were to give up pick 4.

Therefore, go hard. Pick 3 + steak knives (not pick 13).

Hogan must be good, he was in the top 10 of this year's beep test with is really good for a big bloke.

GWS have 100's of young talented players to chose from to pick for this mini draft and if these are the only 2 they have picked then they both must be worthy of pick 2 and 3 then.

I am looking forward to seeing him and Watt taking over the forward line into our next grand final if this is true. :)

Not usually a fan of your work Olisik but I like this. 3 for Hogan and 20, and then 20 for Dawes sounds pretty darn good.

Simply not true we will use 3 and 4 on the best two available players.

Surely if Hogan is coming 2013, then that will make us an even less attractive proposition for Dawes? He does have to agree, after all.

    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,
