  • 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.

His description of what Adelaide thought of his future will worry some Dees supporters if they take that at face value; Vince said that Sanderson and co. explained he had zero chance of getting another contract after 2014.

Suspect that all this happened because a) Vince would be FA next year, so worth nothing for them if they waited and b) they were desperate to get into the draft, and Vince was one of the few non-core players they could let go who has any currency.

As you said, good deal for us, and if he can continue to average 20+ possessions a game for the next couple of years, will have proved a handy addition.

Ok, from the highlights, definitely a very good kick, looks like he has decent vision too. Obviously that's harder to conclude from just a short video.

I must say it - Aaron Davey's kicking, when on song it was without question the most beautiful kick in football. Even looked different as the ball 'flowed' through the air and dropped right where it was meant to. Could be so perfect it would make a mathematician smile softly.

Hmm...

Is anyone else feeling a little less bitter about all the 'not-quite-great' players we've had in the last ten years? I think I just detected my first inner glimmer of real positivity for the future.

Yes there is a glimmer, isn't there. I feel better coming in to this season than I have since 2007, but that lasted for about a quarter.

Hopefully this will last a bit more and for the first time since swooper I think we are in good hands.

I know Neale got us to a GF but I never thought we had a chance of winning it.

It's all off-field stuff and fairly trivial but could be somewhat interesting because it's the guy we recruited with the pick we got for Sylvia.

He's quick with his hands!

The big fellas taste could be a bit iffy though

I'd be more concerned if they were a couple of Trannies and he was after fashion advice.

Nothing wrong with that image. Good looking bloke, good looking girls. Not a red blooded poster on here who doesnt have a little envy! Importantly, if he plays better than Sylvia has, we will be in front. In the end, that's what we'll judge him by.

    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
