  • 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

The Ox has called Howe to Collingwood. Really dont know what we'd want from them. Kennedy and a third round still feels unders considering what might be on the table from North and the Suns.

Thats either Speculative, or Mischievously clever

That's true that you can only trade what you have.

With so many speculative permutations and possibilities it's truly mind boggling what will come to fruition.

Interesting that North are interested in Howe. And I'm interested to see what their offer may be and whether it trumps GC/Coll.

Surely pick 15 is being offered by North, if they're to trump Collingwood and GC. It wouldn't be the Pies current first pick and if the Pies are after Aish and Treloar, I can't see them involved even if they are offering up Kennedy.

How about our pick 25 or even better a compo pick for say Toumpas ? (to Port for 29) and Howe for pick 15 return?

Where we could obtain Melksham with 29, keep 25, and have remaining 6, 15. Maybe Kennedy or Bugg for 3rd rounder (not sure if we could get both) and if we're somehow in the ball park where GWS are holding strong on the right deal for Treloar - offer them what they want 6 & 15 (2 x first rounders). Surely that trumps the Pies??

Holding onto 25 for our first pick.

IN: Treloar, Melksham, Bugg, (maybe Kennedy....PSD??)

OUT: Toumpas, Howe

Long shot, but from hearing Gubby this morning, GWS are looking for a better deal, other than Collingwood.

edit:

Did I just say that all out loud...

We've got as much chance of getting Trelor as we do Danger.

Howe met with Buckley in Bali today and wants to play for the Pies.

Can't remember who posted it, but I remember someone saying that when Jeremy's manager told him about the offer from GWS last year, he said 'no, but what about a deal to Collingwood?'

Ugh, they'll probably just offer a straight swap for Kennedy. We'll turn it down and they'll throw in their 3rd or 4th rounder as steak knives.

Howe was our only real chance of getting genuine currency so if he chooses the club tied up in every other trade that's not a great outcome.

Mark Stevens just reported on 7 news that the suns have offered Howe a 4 year deal and a trade of pick 3 for a swap of Howe and Pick 6 im pretty sure.. got distracted at the end so wasn't sure if he mentioned pick 6..

Yep, clearly Collingwood miles behind GC and North as our preferred trade.

That said, swallowing up their mileage might mean one of Treloar or Aish is still standing when the music stops.

Ironic that of all the clubs to end up dealing with at the trade table, it'll likely be the two most difficult (and the two who stubbornly overvalue their own players).

Viney better hold his nerve because Essendon and Collingwood have made a career bending other clubs over at the trade table.

Would do that in a heartbeat. Means we get Francis to help McDonald out in the defence.

Let's hope Clayton is emotionally invested in getting him to the club and is prepared to pay overs. In a similair fashion people do with houses these days

Honestly i would take Chook in perth comment a grain of salt. Getting pick 3 would be a win for us. But my gut feeling is Collingwood unfortunately

Take it with tequila and a slice of lemon too if you want. It's factual.

Whether it eventuates we shall see. I sure hope it doesn't. We'll get more value elsewhere.

So we give away Howe to move up 3 places in the draft?

Dumb deal for us.

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast.

    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
