  • 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.


FAREWELL JEREMY HOWE

Just heard on the news we are looking at tying petracca up until 2018 as well...

Jonesy said on Game Day out of all the young guys, Petracca is the one he's most excited about, and I took that as including Hogan. Pretty big wrap.

...he then went on to mention every other kid too though, like a good captain would.

Egh John Ralph never opens his eyes the whole way. Looks like French Stewart from 3rd rock from the sun

he's just a disingenuous shyte stirrer. toss in a greedy player manager with a big ego and a desperate sports media editor and we get this carp.

I think Howe is underated by us. But mainly becuase he scares the daylights out of opposition coaches.... :)

I'd say opposition coaches probably just say run off Jeremy Howe. He won't chase.

hopefully hes not a pea heart like Rivers and Frawley

Clark...

Incidentally, I wonder whether Clark will look for another new team now? Surely playing for a bottom four side will adversely affect his health.

Don't be ridiculous. Everyone knows the best cure for a chemical imbalance like depression is changing where they work... to do the exact same job.

Have to say that despite all the other wonderous upsides of Geelong falling off their perch this year, having Clark be thick amongst it while we are looking ok is the best.

The figures are likely 20% more than the reality,bloated by his agent.

If we gave him 3 at $550k a year it would do.

Plus we can guarantee him a new car per year!

You don't think this is good news? You'd rather they left it til he was out of contract next year, so everyone can speculate over whether he is staying or going?

No i ment what else was mentioned? Did they say he would sign soon.

I live in a part of the country that can be troubled by cyclones in the summer months. We have found media will always take the most sensational and easiest route to report them. This year they used unattributed file footage of crashing waves, driving wind and rain on the news in Melbourne with a reporter doing the audio over the top. In reality that same beach had calm seas and was bathed in sunshine for most of that day.

No doubt the reporting of Howe and others contract negotiations are subject to the same level of quality journalism. I really would not believe anything that has been reported aside from the fact that neither party has signed

Howe has been called overrated by so many on here, I think it has got to the stage where he is now somewhat underrated. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle, and he is definitely a required player.

It all depends though. If packaged with pick 8ish in exchange for Hannebury (or someone that good) he is less required

Yep, Howe and our first round pick for Shiel and their second round pick, Frost becomes a permanent back, Shiel takes Cross' spot and we draft another premier ruck and were finals bound

Tim Watson on SEN this morning has said he's good mates with someone involved in a recruitment/list management role at an AFL club and he has told him there has absolutely been calls from Howe's manager about a possible move.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again headlining another blockbuster at the MCG to kick off the round of footy. The Dees take on the Blues and have the opportunity to win their third game on the trot to solidify a spot in the Top 4 in addition to handing the Blues their third consecutive defeat to bundle them out of the Top 8.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    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,
