  • 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 will have to move it, turns out I'm in NZ for a conference that weekend.

Enjoy NZ.

I am not sure but the 17th I will have a supercoach draft...

AFL starts on 22nd so maybe we do it on the 17th and I suck it up...

3rd might be a tad early...

RPFC - As of today I also have a SuperCoach Draft on the 17th March.

I am in favour of March 3rd , from memory we drafted much earlier in 2012

Over to the masses for input, my vote MARCH 3

the week long draft with 10 hours between picks could also be an option, if its hard to sure up a time!

it stops people from missing the draft and having to rely on their pre draft determined picks

The only problem with a long time between picks is that it's impossible to know how long you actually have.

If you've just had a pick and its ten hours between, your next pick might be 350 hours away or it could be less than an hour away. I think it needs to be short and sharp.

Yes, and mid-week is tough for me as I have footy training Tues and Thurs and bball Weds.

March 3 is ok - I mean, injuries pre-season are unfortunate but they happen...

That and it'd potentially take 6 months to complete the draft...

March 3 isn't good for me. I'm stupidly driving to Renmark to watch the Dees play. You can't punish me for this can you??

We can and will!

Look, I am good for Monday nights usually...

We could do the 18th?

How are Monday's?

And, IIRC, we can split it up should it get to 'long in the tooth' so to speak...

With people playing sport, maybe we could have this over 2 weekday evenings, starting at maybe 8:30? Have 2 minute time limit per picks between 8:30-10:30?

I think MOnday 18th is winning for me.

Slow drafts do not work, and I can't configure it like you have said here robbo.

ANy complaints about Monday? It is impossible to get everyone at once, this might have to do. 7:00pm is my preferred time, but happy to be guided.

Yes, 18th of March (I take it's not Mon 18th of Feb) is good by me. If we could push it back a bit from 7pm ie.8pm?

Last year I was in all sorts at 7pm (kids) and ended up with LeCras (knee)...lol (if you all remember - my fault I know) *sigh*

Still a fan of Sunday March 3rd.

If it has to be Monday 18th 7.00pm can we at least stick to 60 seconds between each pick.

This was so much better than our 1st attempt in 2011 @ 5 minutes between picks.

Prefer 7.00pm start if Monday.

I normally work 12 hours on Monday's so every chance of falling asleep mid draft if we start to much later.

JCB - Does not seem to have landed in the Comp yet?

Come on boy's we need to get around JCB and assist him with his entry.

Old Monster Head has been an integral part of this comp since day one, wouldn't be the same without him.

PS : Who's Hollywood? Happy to have him onboard just need him to identify via Demonland Name before we start sledging!

    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,
