  • 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.

There is an opportunity to change, however doing so leaves an opportunity open for a kind of half cheating. Where you can play a player in your emergency list in the first game to see how he goes then remove a player from your primary list if the original one went well, and the emergency will fill the empty spot, effectively meaning you can see a player's performance before choosing to play them.

Not really cheating if everyone knows the rules and can do it. Makes it easier because you don't know who's going to play on Sunday when the round starts on Friday.

Jack Riewoldt - 4 points......... Not quite the output required from my gun full forward, when scores are now really important. Going to be a close one JCB

Agree- but feel you will have the upper hand in the end.I have a weak forward line in particular without SJ.

Well done RPFC. Its a fine line between pleasure & pain this season.

Congats to all winners in Round 3

3 Rounds down & I am 0 - 3. my season is rapidly heading south.

I have lost 1 of my Rookie keepers for the rest ot he season (Jonno Patten)

Time for drastic measure's - Swan, Jack & Goldstein excluded all other players are tradeable this week.

Check out the list & fire away.

I need to change the dynamics of my list, I wont be rolling over with stupid offers so would like to keep it real, however unlike Neeldy, I intend to act now

before losing becomes ingrained in 2013

To robbo24 - sorry you didn't get an explanation for the reject of Danger Mouse for Redden (I blame the internet). Player position changes are coming up on Wednesday and I thought I would wait that out as I reckon a couple of mine might change.

So I won't trade until that is revealed.

The decision to play one or two ruckmen each week is going to be a decisive factor in a lot of games.

Be my guest and play two ruck an this week.Need all the help I can get.

ThanksRR- you are so kind to an old geriatric.

Well done RPFC, was coming home quickly just not quite enough. Dangermouse kicking a few was the difference.

Yeah, I have decided to trade him though because I am an idiot.

I am 4 and 0 but my List Manager is taking a gamble...

Redden, Thompson, and Walker for Danger, N.Riewoldt, and Ziebell...

At least I have a scapegoat...

Not sure about the RPFC / Robbo 24 trade. At 0-4 and top of the table seems very risky from RPFC. Time will be the judge however Robbo 24 gets the chocolates for mine in that exchange. Team OMR have finally arrived on the winners list in 2013. After two very narrow losses in the 1st 3 rounds The sleeping giant is now wide awake. Well done to all other victors in round. 4..

The reason from my end is that Ziebell is so inconsistent and Danger Mouse is tagged to high heaven but it is a risky play I will admit.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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
