Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

*Likely keepers have been added alongside coaches' names on the opening post. Just for interest's sake and also to possibly guide strategy when assessing who's off the table.

Does anyone remember who the 2012 Premier and Runner-Up was?

My keepers are looking like:

Watson Ryder

Fyfe Shiels

Jacklives here is a no go for Ufooty this year. Combined with Deevoted, that brings us down to 16.

Yet to sign on from last year are:

WattsCookn (last year's premier) has confirmed he'll be back.

Robbo

Dappa Dan

JCB

Snomed

Eth

I want to get this sorted out as soon as possible so if you are one of these people, or know one of these guys, then please confirm one way or another. I will put a deadline on entry which will probably be in the next couple of weeks.

And if anyone trades before the draft it is with, and only with, the four nominated players and future picks.

For instance - If I have Goddard, Dangerfield / Ziebell, Harwood - I cannot trade Goddard for an upgrade of Harwood and then use Grimes as my 4th 'keeper'.

With that understood - can anyone offer a trade for Goddard that gets me an upgrade on Harwood?

This would mean two lower ranked players with the new team taking both Goddard and Harwood OR giving me a better deal and getting a pick above where Harwood would be.

If anyone does any trades pre-draft - this may get complicated so everyone be patient.

you'll have to submit pre-draft trades to me via this forum.... I need to manually update the draft order.

To help in trading i'll try and get everyone online ASAP, then I can set the order of the draft and we'll know what picks are available for trading.

RPFC what are you talking about?

I have heaps of Rookies I wont be using : Steven Motlop, Gary Rohan, Jonothon Patten, Billy Longer, Thomas Bugg, Jesse Stringer

If interested how do we trade? I don't get it?

PS : Eth 38 is missing in action ? S-T-I-N-G-A will get a gig surely!

Ok, the reason why I don't like us trading outside of the 4 keepers is because it extends the strong teams from last year into this year if they are trading surplus players for picks.

We can discuss it. It's not a big deal. I am happy with whatever people decide.

But be warned - if we get to trade away last years team it is in effect meaning that we have a whole team full of keepers - as we are getting to trade them...

Given that our keepers are still up in the air pending draft/holding out for possible NAB cup injuries I think we should be able to trade whoever?

That said, my view is that we shouldn't be able to trade outside keepers for RP's reason - they're not really keepers if we can keep them and trade to upgrade from outside the 4.

I like this trading idea, although I think it's coz I could offload josh Kennedy for a keeper who is better than Ryan bastinac haha

Deeflog you have been added to the comp. Please confirm your commitment. S-t-i-n-g-a you're next in line.

I'm lost on this pre-draft trading thing. What was the point of all that late season horse-trading in 2012 if we're just going to go change it all up before the start of round 1? I'm for keeping things as they are but will defer to JA's decision on it.

Also ... who does Deeflog (and any other new coach) get allocated as his 'keepers'? Or does he/they just take over the list of a previous coach?

JA?

New teams will have an old team allocated to them... decided at random after we finalise numbers.

I'm going to give JCB and Eth until mid-day Sunday 17th Feb. Then I'll put it out to new people.

As for trading: for simplicity here is the rules pre-draft:

Each trade must have equal numbers of keepers, and equal numbers of rookie keepers.

So you can trade a keeper with another keeper with picks added on.

Or a rookie with a rookie with picks.

But you can't trade a keeper for a rookie, or 2 keepers for a keeper, or just picks for a keeper.

Trades can be submitted to me for approval on this forum, and I can advise people of what can and can't be done.

So this pre-draft trading begins once everyone is locked in and draft order is known?

Wait - I am confused by JCB's post.

Just clarify - I have nominated S. Thompson, J. Redden / A.Miles, C.Beams as my keepers.

I have Thomas, Carrazzo and Sylvia who may be of interest to people. Could I trade one of them for a rookie keeper to go ahead of Miles or Beams?

You cannot trade non-keepers because by trading them you are 'keeping' them.

Do you get what I am saying?

You can trade Redden and a pick for an upgrade or Redden and Miles for an downgrade on Redden and an upgrade on Miles.

But you can't trade Thomas, et al as they are not one of your 4 selected keepers.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
