  • 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.

Deeflog, jcb and eth still not logged in.

Cutoff is tomorrow, I'll make a bit of an allowance for JCB because I know he's trying to log in.

But I have to make a call on Eth/Deeflog tomorrow so unless I hear something I'll be giving positions over to the next couple in line.

Hard part is done JCB.

Now select your keepers:

Under the 'preseason' draft tab, here is an option called 'nominate keepers'.

From here you can see your team from last year.

Pick any two you like, plus any two rookies (born in 1991 or later)

Hey guys, my new little Demon (goes by Oliver) was born on Thursday (valentines day!). Seriously tired! Obviously I'm not really keeping up with the plan for drafts etc at present - will make do with whatever the general consensus is - will do my preselection order if unable to make draft time

Ps. Looking for ideas on who to get to sign his first little Demon jumper - leaning towards the 'Jacks' Grimey, Trenners and Watts give the lad someone to follow as they grow

Congrats jako13. Don't forget the bloke you have for your avatar.

Good work JCB on your keepers. That's the spirit.

We will have to be explained on how to pick our players before draft time.

Are we going with 14 coaches or are we going to allow new ones, if so, how do they pick their keepers?

Stinga and 7-up make the cut.

League ID 321216 Password DNALNOMED

Log into the site and join the league.

I will distribute your keeper teams (from last year's teams) when I get a chance.

Apologies for not providing more detail, work is a pain at the moment.

ATTENTION STINGA and 7UP

I have PMd you but no response.

Log in as soon as you can, once we're settled we can push on with everything else. If you are no longer interested please let me know. If I don't hear anything by wednesday I will have to bypass you and move to the next interested person.

Stinga/7up.

After you log in I will have to assign you each a team from last year. All current coaches are able to carry over 4 players from last year (keepers), and as you don't have a team from last year I will give you one of the outgoing ones.

The trick is, which team do I give you.

There are 4 teams to choose from (we've reduced the league from 18 to 16), and they vary somewhat in their qualty. For example one has Gary Ablett.The problem here is that I think i'm in line for pick 1 (or thereabouts). So I could be a dog here and just give you a different team, thereby leaving Gary to don the Jackattack colours.

I think the only fair thing would be that I randomise it. You pick a number from 1 to 4, and you get the team I assign to that number. the teams will be in no particular order. As a check I will PM the team names and numbers to an existing coach (DL7) whom I believe can be trusted by everyone else here enough that there will be no claims of embezlement.

So, all you have to do is:

1 log in to the site

2 pick a number from 1 to 4

3 After I assign your team, go to the site and nominate your keepers.

Then we're ready to draft.

PS I wouldn't worry too much there is some very good players in all 4 of those teams.

Also when you eventually pick your players:

2 of them are unrestricted keepers.

The other 2 must be 'rookie keepers'. These are players whose birthday is in 1991 or later.

Sounds good JA, FWIW, the way you've run it dont feel like we'd ever think you'd cheat the system, only the other 14 dogs in the league are capable of that. :P Edited by Demon Land 7

    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,
