    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.


Demonland Player of the Year - Round 22


Demonland

Recommended Posts

6. Michie - Showed a lot of composure and game sense. Also won a fair bit of ball.

5. Cross - Very nice shut down role.

4. Fitz - Lacked polish but he kept working, kept hitting packs and snagged a couple of goals.

3. Bail - Provided endless run and scored a pretty decent running shot.

2. Pedersen - Came back into the game in the second half and had an impact.

1. Viney - Faded, but was one of our better players in a dismal first half.

6 - N.Jones ( by a street )

5 - Cross ( slow, but makes up for it with nous)

4 - Vince ( for weight of possessions )

3 - Tyson ( plenty of possessions but has become soooo slow to move the ball on )

2 - Dunn ( for trying and taking the game on )

1 - Bail ( for trying and taking the game on )

6 Howe - Only bloke who can get his boot on the ball quick enough to actually go forward

5 N.Jones - Still turning into trouble too much, but always working and presenting

4 Cross - Priddis had been the form player of the league for the past month.

3 Vince - Wish he'd do a bit more with the ball, but at least he got it heaps.

2 Bail - Our only true running player.

1 Dunn - Still handy with his kicking but needs a left footer down back with him so he can switch on occasions.

Biggest surprise: Jetta's worst game this year.

Not surprisingly Jetta's form has been woeful since signing his contract extension.

Wasn't he on Devon smith last week who was BOG.

Yes I did. I rewarded the people who did better than I expected. Jones got plenty of ball but really didn't stand out to me as having that much impact. I honestly thought it was a bit of a flat game form him despite his disposal count. The others were the ones I saw hurling themselves into the fray and really fighting for it and in general had more of an impact that I would have expected.

Four of these six traded in this season.

Sure, it's the votes for only one game but Vince, Tyson and Cross have been doing it all year. Good to see Michie is starting to string some good games together, too.

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. 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.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.
