  • 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.

I hope the player managers get their butts kicked too.

Yep, would be great to see Blucher deregistered too. Same [censored] that strung us along with Scully

The findings of the tanking investigation wont even be noticed with all this going on!

I doubt we'd get Tippett. Would screw with our salary cap. 3 players in our forward line taking up over $2 million. Can't see it happening.

More likely to go to GC/GWS I would have thought. But I don't think we'd turn him down on the basis that it messes with our balance. Good players are good players.

I guess he could do a Ball and whinge and moan loudly enough so that no-one takes him until Sydney's first pick, or some other club he actually wants to play for.

This story has legs.

We have plenty to spare with Rivers, Moloney, Green, Jurrah, Martin, Morton, Gysberts gone....

I'm sure we could afford Tippett. But what would it do to our remaining salary cap and our ability to retain players in the future.

Also after bringing in Pederson and Dawes would Tippett be needed or make either of those trades redundant?

So the AFL will allow him to enter into the draft and be picked up by, say, a New South Wales team?

No this gives the AFL time to decided how much pain to inflict on Crows and Tippet. He's playing nowhere next year.

Guys he Tippet will not be de registered any time soon.

His lawyers would go straight to court and the whole AFL system would come crashing down.

If guilty he will be fined heavily somewhere down the track

Knowing Neeld he would take Tippet over Wines.

Neelds care factor of our forward line is 999999999999

Neelds care factor of our midfield is 0

If this isn't tongue in cheek you have well and truly out done yourself here.

FFS

Next time your practicing hold the ball as low down as possible before dropping to your foot and laces out

Think you are spot on 'old dee'. The AFL won't risk it.

...and by the way anyone who thinks Sydney didn't know about this deal is kidding themselves.

This is what I think will happen:

Tippett will be cleared of any wrongdoing, he will enter the draft with a clause in his contract to be paid "x" amount of dollars for a NSW team, GWS will be priced out and he will end up at Sydney with pick 23.

Meanwhile, the AFL will come out and say that Sydney's bonus Salary Cap room has been removed after the investigation declares that the price of living is negligible.

This will only happen, of course, after the National Draft concludes with the newly-signed Kurt Tippett donning the Red and White.

    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.

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.

    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
