Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

My 2 mates and I are keen to play!

hey, mad...

glad to hear you are alive and well... :wub:

as a site member and veteran of these games, you get picked ahead of other guy's mates...

but your mates may have to warm the bench for a bit, depending on the numbers that turn up...

let me know what position you play these days, give me the same info for your mates, and I will pass it on to the coach...

I remember the game we made you ruck. We owe you... :rolleyes:

I will point out this individual to you guys before the first bounce...

perhaps we should unchain wise ??

(no, that would be too cruel)... :rolleyes:

TO ALL PLAYERS, COACHES AND HELPERS

Remember we are playing this coming Sunday, October 5 at 11:00 am at Gosch’s paddock.

Goal post issues mean that we may have to move to Olympic Park.

11.00 am means 10.00 am for those of you who have not heard about daylight saving time.

Melway map reference 2G E10.

Train to Richmond station, walk south down Punt Road (city side). If you come to Boulton Parade, you have gone too far.

CAR. Free parking may be available at Punt Road Oval. If not, you can try the Richmond side streets south of Swan Street, but I prefer the commercial car parks in Swan Street. There is one east of the intersection with Punt Road and one west of that intersection.

WEATHER. Extended forecast says 28 degrees, warm and sunny, humidity 42%.

People, its Melbourne so bring WATER and SUNSCREEN!!!

Helpers, we have never had enough additional water, so please do not slack off on your commitments.

Everyone, please bring additional jumpers (if you have them) for players without.

Scotty from Bomberblitz says they are going to beat us this time. Post from scooter 23 on bomberblitz on 1/10/14:

“Let's beat these Melbourne dogs..... I'm running in off the square and taking someone out at the first bounce..... Invoke some fear into the rest of them.... They'll be too scared to put their heads over the ball for the rest of the game.”

See you Sunday at 10.30 am (9.30 am for people clueless about daylight saving time). People arriving at or before then go into the draw to have first go at scooter23.

Players and helpers who have not committed, or who are late apologies, please update your status by posting on the thread on Demonland, by sending ucanchoose a pm, or by sending him an email at ([email protected])or by texting him on 0449 821 556.

Regards,

Peter Connor (aka Rollo)

If that is the case with helpers, if we have an extended bench, would a "high vis" shirt be helpful for benched players to occasionally run water or messages for 10mins throughout quarters while waiting for their shot at glory?

Love these games. Premierships and club B&Fs come and go, but these backyard no holes barred games are what we live for. Don't let the dream die.

No dramas, I've put on a lot of beef since i last played, so probably best use my big frame at full forward, if someone else is there that's fine, and if youre lacking height ill have stints in the ruck thats no dramas. My mate Scotty who played with me last time usually plays up forward or back, and Nathan can play anywhere, very good player usually plays ruck and around the forward line.

Hi Dees,

The bomberblitz team extends its deepest condolences on the loss of a true legend of not only your club but the game itself.

With your approval I would like both teams to wear black arm bands on Sunday as a mark of respect for Robbie Flower.

Your thoughts?

Cheers,

Scotty

Make my job easy

Be on time, let me know if you are not going to be there be sober

Easier to ask those who are going to be sober to let you know... :rolleyes:

On a serious note, I have just got to stop working such long hours. Imagine finding out about Robbie's tragic death on a form footy post... :mellow:

I will bring the black armbands...

Great idea, Steve...

I will bring plain white tops. I have about half a dozen, which I acquired back in the day when we thought we would have lots of site members showing up to support the team (and would be able to have boundary umpys).

We are lucky to get a blindman and his dog these days. ^_^

Word from Scotty is that it's up in the air whether we play at Gosch's Paddock or Olympic Park

The plan is to go to Gosch's Paddock then relocate if we have to.

Don't forget to bring sun screen.......

We have an umpire from the Riddell District League. He has strict instructions to eject anybody for less than complementary behaviour.

Lets make this game something that Robbie would be proud of!

Should be interesting, brad, because we have leeroy tagging you now... :rolleyes:

no brad, no bombers IMO... :cool:

Leeroy is far too good of a player to be tagging in all honesty.... There's pretty much no match up for Leeroy with his athleticism

I've seen him play reserves footy in the past..... Absolute joke..... As you're well aware he's a high quality player

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
