  • 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.


WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DOM TYSON

I have just heard a rumour from a mate closely connected to another afl club (he has a 60% track record of being right over the last 15 years) that Dom Tyson, this week's rising ster nominee, wants to come to the MFC to join former teammate JV.

I'd love to see Tyson @ the Dees

If true, we should Try to convince Liam Jurrah to go to Sheeds in an exchange somehow with GWS.

Sheeds would be great with Liam IMO, & may be able to set him Straight.

G'Day,

New member here first post, your thread topic sparked me to join :)

I heard on TrippleM last year just before the draft that Dom Tyson was actually coached by Garry Lyon at some point during his junior carreer. So it wouldn't suprize me if the old Lyon has been in his ear. Also as stated previously he is only a first year player, however GWS have been signing their players a year early to avoid the vulturing clubs circuling... interestingly if your source is correct I believe we would be seeing him come at the end of the 2013 season (unless if he and GWS agree to cancel contracts and sort a trade with the Dees). Would be nice if the cost was right!

Well obviously the commentators stuffed that up then. Can't remember which one it was now. Anyway that's why I thought he was out of contract.

The SEN fools were rabbiting on all Saturday afternoon about how he was yet to sign. I had to switch it off. It makes me sick how these clowns in the media are on six figure sums yet can't be arsed even getting basic facts right.

Is contracted so i think it would take either pick 3-4 to do it, which is what he is worth, depends on if he is valued higher than say MD pick 1/2 or who is going to be their at picks 3/4 this year? i think Toumpas will be gone at this stage so he could well be the best available with a year under his belt.

They are correct still mate, he has not signed an extension and is pretty much the only high profile Giant not to do so at this stage which is where i think his contract confusion is coming from......he still has his second year to run at this stage though.

So maybe just a miscommunication talking about him not signing but ignoring to mention it is an extention beyond 2013 not this year.

Actually you're spot on. Thats exactly where I heard it from. Thanks. I shouldve known better but for some silly reason I thought they signed him up in 2010 early.

OK, here goes, If he was a pick 3 last year & we give our Pick 3 for the (Mini draft P1),,, then trade that Mini Draft Pick 1 back to GWS for Tyson this year.

Then P4 we use on another Mid.

Pretty sure there is a rule against that, as last year GWS were planning on doing that to secure O'Meara and were called out on it

Oh well, can we then trade our (Mini Draft 1st Pick) to West Coast for Gaff? if available?

He is happy at GWS.

Concur. A very very loyal bloke, ill be very surprised if he ever left GWS, his head is screwed on the right way.

And he was coached by Lyon in u15 for the local footy club

I really believe there are quite a few boys at GWS & GCS who are homesick.

They are private school types and wish to continue their education back in Melbourne.

Where they have the family support.

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    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
