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.

Very good athlete, long-limbed. Ball use and decision making are definitely work-in-progress at best and he needs to put on size to grapple with the bigger forwards, was manhandled at times this year.

Uncanny how this appears to be a word for word description of our good friend Cale M.

Though you'd be hard pressed getting a second rounder back from Adelaide and GWS wouldn't be giving Bugg up that cheap, he's a decent player.

It seems that too many posters are clambering to offload Watts, Trengove and Toumpas as though Roos has no long-term plans for them. Personally i consider that all three are potential stars for the MFC and i suspect that Roos may share that view. How many other AFL Clubs have their supporters clambering to offload their No.s. 1, 2 & 3 draft picks, especiall ywhen one is a past (co)captain?

Take it or leave it for me on Adelaide. Dangerfield is not worth overs and pick 2 + Trengove would surely be enough. If not tough luck. There is Shiel, Jack Steven, Mitchell (sydney) and Im sure others I cant think of.

Might be right about Bugg though. 2nd rounder should do it though.

Um excuse me but I did not name Toumpas, he needs time. Give him a year in the gym and VFL. Soundnt play seniors at all next year. I think he will be a good player actually, regrettably perhaps not Wines quality but its early times.

I do believe its time for Watts and Trengove however. Watts needs a fresh start and so does Melbourne. It needs to start over and its the best thing for the club and player. Trengove, I feel was damaged from the captaincy and I dont see anything special in this person to consider otherwise.

Well having another look at it, if we recruit Malceski and Jones through FA we wouldn't be getting pick 3 for Frawley, going by the rules of the system.

If we can complete a couple of those transactions, we'll be looking a lot better.

We will not take any FA's. Delisted FA's are different. We will not again, water down our compo.

2 + 3 for Mitchell, Reid, Malceski and Sydney's first pick.

Go on Swans, your cap is stuffed.

Stuffed? I'm sure they'll find a way to offer Paddy Ryder $20 million over 27 years.

Please explain (further)?

A surprise is just that D-ox. We had a couple last year in Tyson & Vince. We will probably get someone left field that none have talked about ie: no I have no info for you!

Would love Melbourne to try get Martin from the tigers to ad some real grunt in our midfield. The bad thing is we could of got the boy for next to nothing last year. I know some will say he has to much baggage but the kid plays footy the right way and can really turn a game on its head with his kicking power. I would give up pick 3 for dusty in a heartbeat he is about to just come into that age were he will just explode IMO . Thoughts?

It would've been hard to do a swap for Dusty last year like we did with Tyson, where we got a good draft pick in return as well as the player for our picks. We didn't have the range of high end picks that we might have this year, eg, 2, 3 Chip?, 21PP???, 23 second round. Roos said he wants 5 picks in the top 25 (I think 25, not sure of number). Gives him great flexibility. Maybe Dusty is still on the radar?

Watts, Trengove & the Toump won't be traded.

One reason why he wont part with both 2 & 3 (if we get it? but we bloody well better!)

    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.

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
