  • 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.

Because its a pipe dream/fantasy & Danger has already stated he's happy in Adelaide.

Do you hate these posts because they're realistic

I think he's referring to whether you're just stating your opinion or that you have inside knowledge

Just to add nothing but more speculation to the conversation, I was talking to my wife's uncle yesterday who is from SA and has contacts high in the AFC and also knows an exec at TAB. He said he had a call from a work contact who was in Bali on Friday and was desperate to know how/where he can put some money on the Dangerfield to Melbourne deal getting done on Friday. Obviously it didn't happen on Friday but perhaps it was held up with Richmond wanting to do their due diligence on Trengove?

Anyway just another interesting nothing story to add to the pile.

I have no inside info, just basing my opinion on what has been said in the media & not choosing to believe the emotional bipolar people on here... We don't hear from these people all year, then all of a sudden everybody has a friend or contact, don't you think its a bit suss?

From what I've heard I don't think Danger is coming, if he does then you beauty.

They're annoying because they aren't based on anything but come across like they are.

It's also a lame win/win type of post. Because if it turns out right you get on your high horse and say you were right, but if it's wrong we're all so happy no one pulls you up for making a stupid post.

It's easy to be negative....

I don't know whether or not to laugh Gonzo. No offence intended, I normally enjoy your posts.

Just not sure if you're serious or not.

No, I agree with you. It reminds me of those losers who thought last year that Paul Roos was a chance to coach us.

What a bunch a of unrealistic no-hopers - why even waste phone money calling people like that?

Everyone knows that you should only pick the fruit you know you can get...

No, see my post above.

I do believe it's Paul "I'll never coach again, I'm happy where I am" Roos.

The dream isn't dead until it's dead. Until then I'll stay asleep, if it's all the same to you.

What we really need is for you to have another shower, Nasher.

Worked last time.

All I'm saying is, I'm not building my hopes around rumours based from people I don't even know on the internet.

Sky is the limit, we should always target the best, but from what I can tell away from Demonland, he's happy to stay in Adelaide & we are taking our picks to the draft.

Once again, I don't have a source or have any info, but one thing for sure is... I'm not basing my opinion around a few posters from here who all of a sudden have inside info, I'm still very sceptical on a popular one.

If Danger does come, I'd be over the moon.

Roosy before it was announced but I kept my mouth shut.

McLean to Carlton, big whoop.

A bit of social / personal stuff that would just get deleted on here but plenty of it eventually gets alluded to in the media.

Quite a few things before 2012, but I forget what they were, that's not a cop out, I went code blue a couple of times in intensive care in 2012 and my once excellent memory has been [censored] since.

Got the Judd one very wrong, I remember that.

I'm just adding to hope after I recieved the message. I'd like you all to be as crushed and disappointed as me if it doesn't happen.

But I really am excited.

From someone who has no contacts or insiders, thanks for passing on the info.

I will take it for what it is and try to temper my excitement.

Thnx for sharing. That's a better strike rate than I ever got out of Connolly.

Hawthorn have advised Adelaide that if wish to have Kyle Cheney then they are prepared to accept a straight swap for Dangerfield!

They'd argue it is better than the nothing they'll give them next year when he walks to them as a FA......

I still refuse to believe the hype... It's bloody exciting but I still can't believe it

My main reasoning is because I've been a Demons supporter for far too long (not as long as some) but long enough to know this,doesn't happened to us.

Sure we got Roos - but the AFL funded that through Peter Jackson. Goodwin was a good signing (hype wise - coaching wise we won't know for 3-4 years).... But what else?

Tyson was a fluke really but talk of Danger or 2 A graders coming to the Dees - who are we kidding haha??

I am going to dis-believe - Would hate to be wrong :)

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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,
