  • 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.

interesting isn't it. he may not have even had a sniff of alcohol, waited for the cop car & then proceed thru.... the little Darling?

If he hadn't of had any alcohol then he wouldn't have spent the night in the cells. That's the result of being drunk in a public place, the two years loss of licence will be the result of failing to blow.

Hope he gets an Uber App for the next 2 years to get to training and matches!

I had him in the mix! But no way known would I take him now! not with pick 1 or 100.

Poor decision making starts early and leopards don't change spots easily.

A BIG NO FROM ME!

really, you expect us to believe that without a skerrick of information to support it

Sorry mate, no evidence needed here just a set of eyes & ears, a nose and other non commonly recognized senses.

When I read your post I thought [censored], please don't tell me half of Demonland are in on this. I suppose it's possible clubs have insiders masquerading as regular posters on here...surely not??

Not sure why we are all hot and bother I don't think we were going to take him anyway.

Looks like Parish or the Weid to me, essendrug will take him as dc said earlier he will fit in perfectly.

Might be the case,so long as this isn't Carlton's way to get him to drop from the Bombers 4 or 5 which could adversely affect our pick at 7. Someone else mentioned the connection to his brother at Carl potentially being a motive for all of this.

This will be a footnote in his story....

Headline in 2021 paper

Pick45 Curnow was a steal in the draft because of some questions about his decision making......How did he ever fall so far in the draft?

There's a difference between "driving drunk" and driving after having a drink (1 or 2). He's a P Plater, so he's needs to blow .00. Probably thought by removing the P's that he could get away it. Refusing to blow is hard to justify.

Good point, we also don't know the circumstances. Was he drunk? Did he have alcohol in his system? Did he have several drinks hours earlier and would have blown .00 anyway but tried to stall for extra time for the alcohol to go out of his system (even if unnecessary).

I don't know but again, if the club was set on him it would be ridiculous to turn him down on the basis of this. I'd be at least discussing it with the leadership group to get their views.

Fair enoigh and I see your point, but did your friend refuse a test from the Police?

That for me is crossing a big line. I actually don't think it'll effect his draft position at all, but it speaks to a complete disregard for authority and the safety of others.

Or maybe he [censored] himself knowing it would blow up in the media if he tested positive for booze and knowing it could affect his chances on Tuesday and his entire future career...

That has happened anyway but in the heat of the moment he may probably didn't really think this through properly, he just [censored] himself.

Good Doctor I dont think one stays at Her Majesty's if not affected and/or worse for wear ?

In good spin practice, even now we are only being told what suits them at this juncture.

you're right that he didn't think it through

though later on at the station he would have been offered another chance at a breath test and or a blood test

did he refuse those opportunities too?

presumably he did, as he was detained till 6am which was the max allowable 3 hour detention

we are yet to see exactly what charges the police will be pressing

I'm making plenty of sense... I'm just not easily suckered in.

This crap happens every year in varying degrees and this year is no different...it's all part of the game and the clubs spare no expense to get what they want.

This goes beyond vibe, this is what I would call a "Blind Freddie" Brock McLean type of knowing.

    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.

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.

    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
