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.


FAREWELL JEREMY HOWE

If anyone wants back at the Pies for their Howe intervention, having a Weideman in our next premiership side should do it

I don't need certain conditions to be satisfied with a premiership. (Although revenge on the Pies would be a nice aside)

The Cup will do fine thanks.

This is going to turn out better than what a lot of demon supporters are fearing.

The club knows what it's doing.

Mahoney's doing a great job.

All big fish start out as little fish at some point.

Our recruiters have done an excellent job of late so back them in.

The kids we are targeting in the draft will be hard at the ball like Brayshaw, and they will grow into our homegrown bigfish that can stand up on Grandfinal day.

This is going to be a good draft for us.

It's all good - stop worrying.

It looks like the Howe deal will go through Monday and Kenedy will be included.

The Bugg deal will get done as it is a simple one for a pick.

I wonder if we can trade up to 8 with GWS for picks probably including Bugg at the same time.

If that happens can we then do anything else. Prestia/OMeara are reported today as staying.

Can we become involved in Tomlinson. Is Gorringe an option?

Can we do a player and 6 for 3 with GC?

We will have 3.5 days to try something or is it complete something?

Personally I could live with having 6 and 8 in the ND.

If we miss Parish, Francis and Curnow would Weideman and Rioli be silly.

Despite all the hype Rioli is not a top 10 pick.

Im confused

Is this saying

Out Howe and Toump

In Kennedy?? They're kidding right ?

That's my take on it. I'm guessing it's a pretty poorly researched article, it would have to include some draft picks moving around as well.

Bloody well hope so. Ridiculous otherwise.

So out of that deal, We would receive picks 29, 26, 46 and Ben Kennedy?

Giving up Howe and Toump

hmmm

Ok...i can see where this might go.

Edit - wrong thread, sorry.

Cheers, reposted in the trade radio discussion thread.

Probably in the 25-40, which is where we may have a couple of extra picks if the 4 club deal goes through. Could be a Brad Hill type.

Wouldn't do 6 and 8 for 3 and 16.

Maybe 6 and a player for 3?

i simply suggested they will be looking to end up with #3 after all this...and some further haggling. Didn't say 6 and 8

I'd love a Milera Weideman combo personally. Would cover off some list deficiencies in one swoop.

Looks likely.

Would we consider trying to get Freeman, Kennedy and a pick from Pies, or is that too hard to organize with Freeman and would it spoil our "master plan"?

We've already dodged that bullet once.....why so keen on him still?

It would muddy the waters for our pick upgrade plans I would have thought.

That is why I posed the question including the reference to a "master plan".

    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.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    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
