    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.


WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CAMERON PEDERSEN

Why would Collingwood want Lynch? Would they play Cloke. Dawes & Lynch at the same time? I would think not. Will they get rid of Dawes if they get Lynch?Something NQR regarding this.

He is seen as the Leigh Brown replacement and they played all three at the same time.

Collingwood signing Lynch should shut them out of the Pederson chase imo.

Or his interest in that move as he would just be competing for a spot again, when Melbourne can offer him money and a spot to loose

FFS think back how dominant they were with Dawes, Cloke & Brown thats the reason they will look at Lynch, Martin, Pederson and Mcintosh

Pedersen's manager has said today that it's likely he will be at Collingwood next season.

Sounds like the Pies are stacking up forwards with Lynch, Pederson and apparently Tippett.

Lucky they signed Cloke as well ;)

Dawes might be feeling a little nervous right now!

Jungle drums continue to beat for this bloke. Looks good from what I have seen of him. Good hands, one grabber, good pace and footy smarts. Would be better than any other option we currently have to fill CHF.

Could be a good value get.

Only played 2 games in 2012, played 14 in 2011 for 74 marks for 18 goals.

Alternately Chris Dawes in 2012 played 23 games took 110 marks for 16 goals.

I hope you and DB are on the money cause i reckon he would be better value than dawes anyway. Though as neeld as coached dawes b4, he might be of the opinion that he could get him back up to his best. Either of them and we will be better, but im leaning toward pedersen.... CMON!!!

Great comparison. A mate of mine that watches a lot of North says he'd be a great pick up.

Probably the only question mark on him is leg speed but Dawes isn't exactly Usain Bolt either. I'd be a lot happier with Pederson for a 4th rounder than Dawes for a 1st rounder.

Brings into question Sellar and Davis' spots on the list as I believe Pederson could also play on the 'dinosaurs' and pinch hit in the ruck.

So at the start of the week we where front runners for Dawes and Pedersen.

Now its looking like we arnt getting either.

We need another big forward next season, we can't go into 2013 with out one otherwise we are going to get smashed again.

Have you though that perhaps we weren't prepared to get screwed over for either player?

Agreed, and once we got viney with 26, allowing us to lock away hogan, perhaps we were even less inclined to get screwed!

I imagine that if he goes to the Pies, we're likely to get Dawes (unless they play him exclusively back, to replace Tarrant).

If he comes to us, then there's not such a need for Dawes.

Personally, I think he'd be more likely to come to us, the opportunity is there, where his spot in the Collingwood side would be borderline, with Lynch headed there with Cloke up forward, Brown and Reid down back, his prospects there would be hardly better than those for Dawes at the moment.

Unlike others such as Lake, he's chasing a game each week, not a premiership...

If we miss out on Dawes and or Pederson I can only conclude that , alas we again are totally incapable of clinching deals which give us some hope!

Shattered yet again?

And please don't bring up an unproven Hogan!

What's going on with that forward who plays for the lions and that wants to come home to Victoria. I cant remember his name.

Karnezis. Personally, I don't think he's a priority.

KPFs and mids, mids, mids.

Pat Karnezis... I think the lions said the other day that 'he was a required player'....

Mitch Clark says hello, and probably chuckles under his breath at the stupidity of that comment. If we parted with the equivalent of what the Doggies are rumoured to be parting with to secure Dawes, I (and many) would be questioning the club. Will have to wait and see what is on the table for Pedersen. I am more than happy for the club to declare interest in these types of players, and even more happy to walk away if the price is too much.

    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,

    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. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.
