  • 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.


Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>


Jonesbag

Recommended Posts

The Bombers are prepapring for the conclusion.

Added to the list are senior players Cooney, Gwilt, Giles and McKernan plus a couple of decent draft picks who could play this year.

Several in the 34 have left the club. Others are reserves players.

The impact has lessened over the last 2 years.

Plus I remember reading that they have been doing a bit of recruiting for their VFL team in preparation for any "doomsday scenario"

Players will be banned, the AFL and the Drugs are obviously hoping to avoid such doomsday scenarios, but preparing for it is admitting theyre expecting it. The only group that will be blind sighted by such an occurrence are the supporter group- the poor, stupid and gullible supporters who think they've done nothing wrong, ASADA and the AFL have it in for them and the sun still shines out of Hird's arse.

I can't wait to see the shock on their stupid faces when come round 1 their team will comprise 60% VFL players, and the rest of the footballing community lay the boots into their smashed egos as their arrogance turns to hubris very quickly.

So why does this not occur more often, there are examples of coaches getting sacked every year for doing a lot less then Hirdy. The board can sack the coach any time they wish they could sack him tomorrow and say they wanted to go in a different direction with a new coach, sure they will have to pay out his contract but breach of contract, damage to reputation and loss of future earnings is a bit of a stretch.

If you are aware of similar cases being won by AFL coaches where they have sued for damage to reputation and loss of future earnings etc I would love to hear about them.

I think the issue re hirds contract is the EFC getting rid of him based on what they already knew upon extending his contract.

I now understand the meaning of these words from "A Day in the Life" off the same album. I've Hird the words a thousand times before but they only make sense now:-

And though the holes were rather small

They had to count them all

The holes were made by needles!!!

Danks a lot for the information.

I think you mean the Deakin University lecturer who I've made reference to in this thread on a few occasions.

Apparently, not a bad barrister but he's one of those Essendon supporters who can see no wrong with anything the club's done in the past 3 or 4 years. Sad case.

This is indeed extraordinary stuff in the context of the case that's about to come before the AFL Tribunal. Hardie isn't arguing whether the players were given TB4. Instead, he's arguing on its status and says ASADA needs to prove why this is so.

Try reading between the lines as to why a barrister, law lecturer, former adviser to the Bombers and a confidant of Stephen Dank is coming from this angle?

Mind boggling!

Wow, it reads as if Dank is admitting the players tool TB4.

Can the interview be admitted in evidence if Dank refuses to appear if called at the Tribunal?

From the posts made after one of the HUN's items on ASADAgate (by Diane):

Hamilton was in charge of Robinson, Dr Reid, Dr De Morton and Dank. These 4 people had to report to Hamilton and not Hird. Hird was told Dank had a vial of Hexarelin in his fridge and ordered him to get rid of it. Hird reported the matter to Hamilton. Thompson ripped into Dank 30 minutes after Hird had admonished him.Robinson sent Dank an SMS reminding him that he could not administer injections. In reply Dank stated, ‘I can use vitamin injections. The doc is happy with that. I need to fight for Cerebrolysin.
4 September 2012 – Dank left Essendon
11 December 2012 – Dank, who had joined Melbourne, organised a meeting with two senior Melbourne people and Alavi to discuss the possibility of Alavi supplying supplements as part of a sponsorship.
There is so much more that the media dont want you to know, but as a detective. I would have thought you would do your due diligence and investigate everything. Not just what the media feeds you.

AFL still in crisis over Dons supplements saga, writes Graham Cornes.

There hasn't been a bigger load of shlt written about this for a while.

Always good to see it when people prove beyond doubt they are total idiots,

Well done Graham.

Hang on a bit I'm trying to my head around this . . I got Hamilton (he's been missing in the conversation of late!) he is in charge of Robinson, right! . . and then there's De Morton (who is this man?) and Reidy, good old Reidy, OK got that, but they don't report to Hirdy ah yep! . . but then Hirdy finds some Hexarelin in the fridge . . yep (again) . . and then Hirdy yells at Dank "this stuff has got to go!" Dank says where should I put it? Hirdy say's "let's try injecting it into my ass!" . . that makes Doc Reid happy. .then (to cut along story short) they all sign a big sponsorship deal with the Dees!

If I'm reading this right the Dons could well be off the hook!

Fair cop,

I posted just one load of tripe posted by one 'diane' here purely for the amusement of DL'ers. This diane really has a vivid imagination.

Yes - as he has in the past. (The famous McKenzie interview).

I believe so.

I'm really hoping ASADA has enough evidence and the players get suspended. If they don't, the smugness of that football club will be too much to handle. Take Slobbo's tweet from a few days back as a reference.

"Perfect storm for ASADA and AFL if case falls over, as expected, and Hird wins fed court appeal declaring investigation unlawful #uhoh"

Multiply this smugness by a million if the Bombers actually get off.

Disregard what the media ( well the fanboy element ) have been suggesting and go to the actuallities of whats happened. There's a clear line of direction.

The club ( efc ) and cohorts are desperate, beyond desperate really as they realise the end is nigh.

There's is a propaganda machine...and that only

Slobbo is most likely a drunken idiot with a disproportionate ideal of his own words.

Most political parties would be proud of the disinformation,mud slinging,pay offs and underhanded tactics the slimey messydrugs FC have used.Unfortunately for them the only gullible marks they have conned are their own kool aid mixed with bath water sipping fanbois.

Will make the inevitable outcome all the more enjoyable.

SS, you have no need to worry. It won't happen, but it may take longer than everyone thinks.

    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

    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
