  • 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.

Sorry bud, didn't look at when you posted it, my bad. I'm a tad over the top about this cause it's one of the few things I actually have a bit of inside knowledge on.

Btw, for the Fitzpatrick lovers & haters out there, Chris also still thinks he's going to be a star one day.... Dunno if that's a blessing or a curse, much as I know Chris & really like the bloke, his record is a little bit of a mixed bag when it comes to calls like that.

He did say that McKenzie would play 300 games.

Yep....... Known to get a little too caught up in the hype our Chris.

Despite his faults & failures he really does love the club though...... Possibly to the point of blindness! Lol

Paddy won't be going anywhere!! I know for a fact he won't even be put up as discussion from Adelaide !

I don't know why but the excessive exclamation marks make me question the validity of your post.

I tend to agree that Fitzy still can be a star for us and l continue to look through rose-coloured glasses at the upside of Watts, Toumpas, Salem and Gawn! There is no reason why any of the five cannot develop into superstars of the game because (despite all the pundits) they all have unique attributes!

Can't listen.

Do tell :)

Very adamant that Pat is not up for trade, he is happy where he is and that stars like him are very hard to come by and take years of development so why would they trade one? Sounded quite convincing.

Yeah, superstars never go anywhere...... Unless they want to of course.

People are missing the point here. If Danger asks for a trade he WILL most likely be traded. It isnt up to Adelaide to offer him up - its up to the player asking if he can be convinced its worth it - like an offer that could set him and his family up for life.

Let me have this theory that AFC is not letting him go, or i will get my hopes up again!

You can have your theory for the rest of today ;)

Regardless of what happens with Danger, the MFC looks like it will be a key trading figure this trade week, especially if we land 3 for our compo pick, which should make for some interesting rumours and trades coming up. Viney and Taylor will be busy boys I reckon!

I have posted previously and it has been corroborated by others that there is a rumour emanating out of Dangerfield's home town that the $ offered by Adelaide have been unsatisfactory.

The manager is doing his job of trying to extract as much $ as he can by investigating and reporting his value.

I suspect that AFC may in fact be having some issues being able to retain all of it's required players whilst balancing the books.

if and when Pat asks for a trade then the AFC will come to the party , if we can mange to convince him to come to melbourne then he has to ask and tell AFC he wants out

once he says that they will then look at trading him this year as they will get much better draft picks from us then AFL compo pick next year if at all they get one

give it time and wait and see, we might still be lucky

    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.

    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
