  • 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.

Have you listened to the Josh Mahoney interview on the website yet? He spells out our intentions pretty clearly on there. By the end of trade period we'll hopefully be bringing in HL and Frost and wi

I'll be really disappointed if we don't use 40 and 53. It's easy to get a fresh injection of hope around this time of year with trades and early draft picks, but the fact is the list is very ordinary

I've stated before that there is absolutely nothing wrong with a mutual arrangement between the club and a player like Jake Trengove who is almost certain to miss a large slab if not all of the season

Are we able to rookie Jack Trengove - from what we have heard he is unlikely to play before late 2015, if ever?

Does anyone know of any gems likely to fall to 40 or 53 ? The likes of Tom McDonald's bro, or Cockatoo ? (Only names I have heard - I admit to not really knowing anything about them so please, someone, enlighten me / us )

Could we have had Cockatoo for Pick 23

We were a chance for Cockatoo with 23. That's well and truly out the window now.

My reading of the situation. Happy to be corrected if I am wrong.

Out – Frawley, Clark, Byrnes, Clisby and Nicho. Blease, Tapscott and Strauss are out of contract. This is a loss of 8.

In- Garlett, Jetta, Lamumba, Stretch and Frost. Picks 2 and 3. This will be a gain of 7.

Part of the Frost deal we brought in another two National Draft picks which I can think of no other reason than we intend to use them which will be a gain of 9.

After this we will need to unload a contracted player, 2 if we identify anyone through the PSD.

cheers mate.

Is my understanding that we have 5 picks - 2, 3, 53, 61 & PSD 2
And Luke Tapscott, Sam Blease, James Strauss all uncontracted = 3 spots
So Nicho & 1 more look to be out the door should we choose to use all our picks?

Don't be surprised if we delist Evans and pay him out and possibly Mckenzie aswell.

Gore could be around.

Toby McLean is one I rate extremely highly who may be there at around 40. Jack Lonie could be there, would be happy to get Nath Drummond here too.

Talls Dan Howe, Dan Nielson and Brenton Payne could be useful gets in this range too. Oscar McDonald could be around the mark as well.

    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.
