  • 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.

That might be needed for Billy Stretch.

Hopefully Billy will be there waiting for us at 3rd round. (Something has to go right for us surely?)

Tell him, he's dreamin.

We may be lucky in that if we finish close to the bottom of the ladder, for us to be forced to use our 2nd rounder on Billy, someone will have to offer up a pick in the first say 18-19.

I am not sure that anyone would want us to call their bluff that high. He could possibly slip to our 3rd rounder if that scenario is correct. He is not at the same desire level for us as Viney was, I would imagine.

As someone said earlier, about time for some luck.

Sorry I actually meant to write our 2nd ROUND pick haha. Would definitely not give pick 2 for Moore

No I got what you meant, I was still ewwing at a second rounder for Moore. He might be ready to go but he's always looked like a battler to me.

Good mail Jesse hogan was out last night well and truly enjoying himself.. Didn't look like a bloke doing everything to get the body in order for a game this year

I'm sure having a few beers isn't gonna kill him pal.

stretch.

let's keep singing his praises & raise his internet profile, & we can talk him up into a Pick-12 if we're so smart, this is no doubt how our past leaders from the northern stand would do MFC's business, shoot themselves in the foot first, and the club.

We'll convince the footy public he's worth pick12, & they'll raise his profile further, so we can spend our 2nd Rnd pick on him, & miss out on another kid. or another deal we could use that 2nd Rnd pick in.

yes

Keep hoping.

Tell him, he's dreamin.

you guys would be a real-estate agents dream, to achieve their best deal for themselves, & their clients. you'd talk up the buy price on the property you want, working together.

Is that right? I thought it was done on rounds i.e. to force us to use our second round pick another side has to offer their second round pick.

Apparently Tom Mitchell is on over $500,000 a year at the Swans (source - Mark Allen, SEN). I'd say the Swans would have to off load him to pay Buddy's, Tippett's, Ried's, etc etc pay next year. Off loading Malceski would help to

My prediction is the Demons will off load a second rounder for Mitchell and Malceski. The Blues are after Mitchell too, they may beat us to the punch. If they do, the club would get Malceski for a low pick (not to dilute compensation for Frawley)

My other prediction is the Dees are going hard for Cameron at GWS. We are the front runners as we have the money to pay for him and the draft pick to get him. Cameron would also enjoy the prospect of playing next to Hogan.

As much as the club would love Frawley to stay, I'd say the club would be happy to let him go if the Cameron deal was in the bag. Probably why the club is going to the AFL wanting to know what compensation they will get for Frawley.

Roos saying he would not play Frawley if he knew he was going to another club is all smoke and mirrors. Roos will not compromise the team losing games by over 10 goals as the team needs to believe they are competitive at AFL level. Playing Frawley as a forward is purely a move to keep us competitive, yet looking at the future without him. Frawley is not a swingman!!

If the club does get Cameron, Hogan maybe seen as the swingman and be played as a backman

Most sense I've read in this thread. Keep it up demonstrative.

And of course Hogan can enjoy himself with a lazy $500k to throw around.

I have also heard beyond the normal channels, that we are into Cameron. I'd have to say that, up and running, he is a sensation IMO

Facebook suggesting DANGERFIELD WILL BE GOING TO COLLINGWOOD. Surely not. Surely. I know facebook is FOS but this would be heart braking if true.

Also rumour regarding Cooney leaving Bulldogs or told to leave is bollocks. Source: Word of mouth from manager.

I wouldn't put any stock in something you read on Facebook. It's full of rubbish... in fact, it's all rubbish.

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
