    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 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.


Coburg Lions v Casey Scorpions


KC from Casey

Recommended Posts


footy under the AFL, has become very orchestrated, manipulated, adulterated.

IMO its no wonder these results happen when they throw games in the interest of picks, & also in the name of development & next years season...

what abut the now, & the people who put their heart soul into helping, or supporting with time, driving hours, & money, gate costs, etc...

respect has left the building in footy, gradually over the past 17 years.

I'm over it. they're playing so they can miss finals (not), is totally disrespectful to people.

KC how did Kent go? Hoping he got through unscathed.

Do you think Tom Papley is a serious chance to get drafted? Has kicked 25 goals at TAC Cup for Gippsland Power this year and he seems to bob up for a goal every time he plays for Casey. I think he is a solid built half forward?

I'm interested in Papley too. The goal totals and possesion totals for his TAC stats seem solid and the Casey twitter guy is obviously a fan.

I wonder what his athleticism is like because he seems to have the skills for VFL at least.

Apologies if it's been mentioned previously, but is Tom Papley the grandson of former Swan Max Papley?

I know Max moved to Bunyip and has a son David. Tom is from Bunyip.

Pretty sure he is.

I vaguely remember Justin Plapp mention that and that he is a player to watch out for at the Round 1 Casey luncheon.

Apt choice of user name.

what, you think not trying to win games of VFL, & play finals is good for footy. pulling player away at selection, & mystery disappearances throughout the season, you really need to take of your afl coloured glasses, & look thru clear lenses for once.

Well they didn't do that very well today, coming back from 20 points down to win....

I'll tell you what, I'm over you having a go at me whenever I have something to say. What say I catch up with you before the Carlton game and or any other time and we can just have a little chat. I don't care what this costs, I have had enough of your continued criticisms of my posts and personal attacks.

So is this happening or not? Anyone going to be streaming it online?

I don't know if they are doing it this year, & at the halfway mark of this season I thought they'd changed, but over the last 7 weeks or so, I'm not so sure things have changed... its not trying to lose every game, come on, but if you want to miss going deep into September, then finishing 7th or below is close enough for many AFL affiliates, who want they're players rested thru September/October.

this is bad, very bad, for the game.

A month or so ago when the MFC injury list was dwindling and Casey was playing up to 15-16 Demons in their side, they were winning games. It's quite likely that today they will be down to 9 or 10 and, if he plays, I don't see Dean Kent having a big role in the outcome because of his lack of match fitness. That doesn't augur well for Casey's finals prospects because next week they take on top four team Sandringham at the Beach Oval.

And for those who will miss big Jack ~

Is Fitzy injured or ill again?

OMG he showed a turn of pace for anyone, let alone a giraffe.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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
