  • 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.


Jack Trengove re-injures his navicular (2014) - trade deal off

That deal is shizen by the way. Trenners AND pick 23 for pick 12? Richmond would be laughing.

I'm not sure I could stomach seeing him at Punt Rd either. If he HAS to go, please make it Adelaide, not [censored] Richmond.

What a nonsense article. So what if Adelaide has number 10 to potentially 'trump' the Tigers for Trengove. So what if he's from SA.

No doubt St Kilda also has the chance to 'trump' Richmond by offering their number 1 pick for Trengove.

The Age article says "Adelaide is interested in the South Australian Trengove, but it is understood he would rather remain in Melbourne". (link)

I have my doubts about the Beams thing. Pies knocked back 5 & 25 for him as a matter of principle - misguided or otherwise. 3 and 23 is enough of a step up for them to release him without losing face. They could even chuck back 48 at us. He does not want to play for them & the sick dad stuff is just a small part of the equation.

We don't need to trade out Trengove but my gut feel is that if it has come this far in the news, it's done. I don't like it. If we are trying to attract players to the club over the next few years , what sort of message is this sending ?

And if Trengove goes reluctantly to the Tigers I may well have a Richmond - supporting daughter. I can't cop that

I have already suggested this in my previous post tonight. The Trengove deal is a play to upgrade him to Beams I assure you.

Read my previous post, as I assure you it is reflective of Melbourne's intentions over the weekend. I understand with the amount of crap posted on here that you would suggest I'm no different, but luckily for this Demon supporter I worked at the right place at the right time today...

I don't particularly mind if the deal turns out to be for Dangerfield, Beams or Sheil, l would just rather be trading Grimes before l traded Trenners, especially when the Club we are talking about is Richmond and Jack (Grimes) can join his brother Dylan! Now that would cause happiness all round!

Except Grimes has even less trade value than Trenners.

I am sure there are reasons but I hate this sort of thing.

He is a quality individual and wants to stay.

Really hope it doesn't happen.

He signed when others didn't.

What happens if this what ever this trade is doesn't actually happen and Trenners has a really good year next season.

Come end of season when he is out if contract we want to re-sign him and he says cya.

This is a big risk if it doesn't happen IMO.

I really hope we have our ducks lined up and r not just hoping it will happen.

So the 5 team deal with Beams to Brissy the age noted is not happening?

Surely we need pick 12 for some mega deal!??

Danger?

Im not against it per se...Might have thought others in front of him but....is what it is.

But how confident is the MFC that it will get done?

Cause if it doesn't then Trenners will feel like shite and probably want to leave at the end of the season.

We need atleast 3 live picks in the draft.

Looking at that we have absolutely no picks whatsoever.

Stretch and Jetta are 2 picks... we can just get someone to throw in a steak knives pick in the 4th round if necessary.

Beams + Danger... oh man...

I love the way Trengove has been loyal since day 1, the opposite of T$. But......I love winning games of footy more.

Go get Beams Demons, he is clearly finished at the Maggies, take advantage of what the Lions wouldn't do. Get it done.

Get Brayshaw, Pies can have Petracca at 3. Start on ball next years with Beams, Tyson and jones in the guts. bang!

Why are we chasing him if his old man is so ill and he will spend a heap if time at home in qld?

All part of the plan...we are in discussion to play all home games in Townsville and base ourselves in Noosa.

I suggested in another thread this period is all about where you start and where you finish. The numbers are just that...a game and a means to an end.

Before I was interested in our final wash up......now Im fascinated.

I probably would prefer for jacks sake that he got to go home if possible....fair's fair .

If this is true I'm finished. I will ring the club and cancel my membership rollover.

If this is true the notion of supporting a club is bullshite.

There is no club.

Really...gee thats mature of you

It IS about supporting a CLUB.... you seem to be supporting personnel... which is it...

oh btw...your dummy is over there >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    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

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.

    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
