  • 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.

Ignored a stop sign, didn't have his P plates on, refused breath test so likely drink driving, lost licence for 2 years.

Yeah, don't think Roos will have much interest in someone with decision making like that. Almost certainly zero chance for pick 3 now.

If it's some secret strategy concocted by another team to make him slide, and he's dumb enough to be complicit in such a scheme despite legal ramifications and a police record, why would we want anything to do with him?

In either scenario there are serious red flags about his character and his judgement.

Jack Darling slept with a girl in a tent on school camp. This guy is pulling this rubbish the week before he's due a massive contract. At his size, his career could really go either way, with his decision making he's clearly on the back foot now.

Geelong Falcons regional manager Michael Turner and Curnow’s manager, Paul Connors, provided a statement to the AFL and clubs this morning saying the player had made “a poor choice”.

“He was pulled over by police for driving through a stop sign. A breath test was requested to which Charlie, in his moment of panic, refused,” the statement said.

“He was taken to a police station. Charges against Charlie could be being drunk in public, refusing breath analysis and not displaying P-plates.”

Curnow was in Melbourne’s sights at pick 3, while Essendon also has a strong interest with picks 4 and 5.

A source said the incident was “a wake-up call that he must learn from”.

Another talent expert said the incident could dampen Curnow’s draft prospects at certain clubs.

“If you had a question mark over him already, you wouldn’t take him now,” the source said.

“But, if you were really hot on him, you would still take him.”

Or Dayle Garlett

Oh they are so similar stories FFS

Darling - Played up at school camp and got king hit

Garlett - drug issues, history of trouble with Police,

About the only similar characteristic they had was they both thought their ability would get them through

Missing the point mate.

Simply pointing out that for every kid that makes a dumb decision but still makes it there's 3 that don't.

Every case is different.

Stuie lets not derail the thread, I know both stories very well in regard to Garlett & Darling.

Every case is different as you say and it is very much the case with these two. The press only knows a minute amount of what DG was up to

Way too much of a coincidence and smells rotten to the core - definitely a set up.

Sounds like a conspiracy...more just a dlckhead !!

Oh please someone sets up going through a stop sign then refuses a drug test loses their licence for two years and then has a record to manipulate the Draft!

Beggars belief.

    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

    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,
