  • 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.

If we get the compo pick for Frawley (pick 3) I'm told it will be 100% traded which the AFL are aware of.

The two options are:

Pick 3 and Toumpas for Dangerfield and possibly another player.

Pick 3 for Dylan Shiel.

I have no idea of the validity of what you're saying, but I like it.

Makes sense.

Adelaide want top end picks after missing out on last year's draft. They cant afford to have a missing age bracket in years to come.

If Dangerfield was to walk through Free Agency next year they would end up with a compo pick around 8 - 14 - pending where they finish.

Melbourne has basically offered Dangerfield a blank cheque. Hence PJ's call for assistance to pay our full salary cap.

Also - GWS are all over Petracca and will need assurance that we take Brayshaw with pick 2 in return for Shiel.

Rest assured, Roosy will earn his money in the next 6 weeks.

That makes no sense, why not just give them pick 2

It means we hold the cards.

Also talk about giving them picks 2 and 3 for pick 4 & Shiel

I listened to JT discussing missing Adelaide on the radio about 2 months ago on a Saturday morning.

He was being interviewed as MFC's cultural representitive at the time.

When asked about SA he sounded homesick and didnt really discount going back.

At the time I strongly felt he was looking for a trade home.

I wouldn't be surprised if he is gone in a trade at the end of the year. In fact I would think its 50/50 but merely my opinion.

If those are possible options, why not go 1 step further?

Offer GWS pick 2 (Petracca) + Blease....................MFC get Shiel + Frost

Offer Adelaide Pick 3 + Toumpas............................MFC get Dangerfield (and maybe Lyons)

Thought you were talking about Trengove initially!

On Toumpas - players in general are more likely to get homesick when injured and things are going badly. I think he would get through it in time.

He's clearly a nice kid and I'm still confident he'll be a good player. If we traded him I'd be genuinely sorry to see him go - but I'd get over it pretty quickly if it ended with us landing Dangerfield.

If we end up trading for Dangerfield what is to stop him walking from us next year as a free agent. Assuming he also doesn't sign an extension?

I can't see Adelaide letting Danger go for anything less then pick 2 & another first rounder (possibly 3), and we haven't even discussed why a gun would want to join the MFC in the position we're in

This thread is pure fantasy....

What you're saying does make sense and I have no doubt the Dees would be after a gun (like Danger)

Option 1 - didn't Toump say he wanted to stay in Melb to help rebuid the MFC - did I miss something here?

Plus what is the likelyhood of Adel trading Danger or Danger actually wanting to come to the Dees

Option 2 - I like but, and I've heard Sheil will come back to Melb, but who knows what GWS would want, would Frost also be involved?

I like what you're saying Partyboy but the realist inside me can't see Danger happening and Sheil would be more complicated transaction

Because it doesn't work that way, he only has his service record at Adelaide. If he moves to another club he goes back to year one.

...but I do think you are right, the thread is pure fantasy.

I feel like I'm on the set of The Castle and everyone here is dreamin'.

Agree. Can someone terminate this thread - it just shows Demonland to be a delusional website for morons.

Danger would be regarded as in the top two young players in the country with Fyfe - so why would he come to our club?

He'll be the Crows captain next year and if he really can't hack it in Adelaide, then he'll go to a Victorian club with money and success.

I reckon he's earned it already.

well your condescending garbage just shows what a moron you are because there have been many instances eg PAUL ROOS where every cretin that told the rest of us to 'stop dreamin' was proven to be a complete dolt. If you don't like it don't read it, but don't waste any keystrokes telling us what we can and can't discuss. GRRRRRRRRRRR

Great suggestion!

    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,

    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

    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.
