  • 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.

Yeah I think Dawes would be a decent pick up as long as we don't have to give up much trade wise and Collingwood pay half his contract.

Paying for contracts brings up a valid option that could be utilised by our front office as we have cash and Collingwood don't, especially if they want to pick up Tippet. In the Dawes trade (which I broke a month ago get around me) we could pay part of Martin's contract and in return we get another draft pick I.e. their late second rounder which would save them cap room and frees up one more spot on their list for their Free Agents

Tim seems very confident about Viney.

Hopefully we make a stand.

Yeah!Let him go at 2!

Let's make a stand against GC trying to dictate our recruiting policies by letting GC dictate our recruiting policies...

I listened to it and I thought it was non commital on everything.

Anyone who thinks we will let Viney go to the Gold Coast (assuming they are mad enough to use their pick 2 on another player who like Caddy and Toy will want out as soon as possible which is ofcourse very unlikely) is wrong Im afraid. I dont care what i hear officially on this topic because I know for a fact that we will use pick 3 if we have to. mark my words :) But that being said I didnt take from this interview that we werent going to use pick 3 on him, rather we had not made an assessment of that yet and it depended on what was available for our live pick 2 (pick 3 if GC nominate Viney).

Caddy is not worth pick 13 for mine. Ive gone and had a look at his stats and some footage I found and I think Viney looks better already to be honest. Use pick 13 and a trade for Wellingham.

Dawes will be a done deal. No other team would want Dawes. Having said all that who knows..maybe he can be the "transformer" and we sure need some toughness.

dawes is just in poor form. A year or so ago he was a very accurate kick for goal and was right along side cloke as their big forwards! everyone from collingwood that play along side him cannot praise him enough for his work rate, he could have a turn around like clark did this season! i don't think he would be as good as clark but he would be a decent pick up :)

Almost, but you're not certain.

If it happens that two year running we get screwed by the expansion teams !!

How's about they fu#k off and target some stronger clubs !!!

We get a hard edged strong bodied mid dished to us on a plater yet some how there is the posability that we well get screwed !!

Hasn't enough bad luck been passed our way ....

Pick 3 for Caddy to replace scully.

Pick 4 for hogen (mini draft)

Pick 13 for daws

Viney second round pick

DONE.

Pick 3 for Caddy! I think pick 13 is overs... Toumpas has to a viable choice...

Dawes in general has been a good player. Im surprised they are looking at giving him the arse after one poor year... Confidence is the key.

Well if your in a club like collingwood with some meany high priced players that's how hard it's to stay in the team.

Pick 13 for daws

DONE.

If this is how this off season pans out, I will soil myself. That scenario represents overs for Caddy and ridiculous overs for Dawes.

I just can't believe that you think Melbourne are that stupid to be showing their hand to anyone.

It's just a game of Charades.

We will know only when it happens.

Should be pick 13 for Wellingham or Caddy....whoever wants it first.

Dawes trade for Martin

3 for Viney (if we dont get Caddy)

4 for Wines or Toumpas

If we do get Caddy for 13 then 3 and 4 will be for Wines and Toumpas , or one of those and Hogan.

and Viney second round

I think we hold some pretty good cards....good draft picks, players to trade and some cash to entice the right player.

Im fairly confident we will end up with some good wins here.

Two or three established players to bolster our midfield and attack, and a couple of the best kids available.

Make a stand, or cut off our nose to spite our face?

Everyone who thinks we are going to pass on Viney- I feel sorry for your naive little gullible brains.

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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,
