  • 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.

Club going all out for Prestia... Pick 3 would have sealed the deal. I understand the frustration.

Dees still very confident he will be in red and blue 2016.

Called this muppet out last year and got howled down for it. Glad some are starting to wake up to themselves and realize what a phony this guy is.

Maynard is a tough and skilled left footed half-back flanker whose father played for MFC.

De Goey is their Brayshaw and is worth way more than Howe.

Oxley is an inconsistent, flakey half-back and isn't worth what Howe is.

Marley Williams is a mental midget with issues.

Is this the Oxley that carved us up Queens birthday?

I agree with your assessment of De Goey but Williams DID have issues which seem to be in the past. Rated above average in the Prospectus.

Yeah you haven't convinced me on Maynard at all.

He sounded pee'd off to me.

Whether thats from Howe back flipping to the Pies or whatever.

I certainly hope we dont get reamed on this trade. We need a win this trade season. So far its been anything but.

I think it has more to do with playing in prime time ón the big stage' so he can show off, his a show poney. only issue is will he make the team often enough to show off on the big stage. he will have a lot harder competition at Collingwood for a spot and they will not tolerate this laziness or turnovers they way we have.

Tell him it is GCS or try your luck in the draft.

OD you and I have been around for a long long time do you really reckon MFC would have the Knackers to do that I know they should you know they should Will They?

Collingwood's 2016 First Rounder is going to GWS for Treloar as well. And we wouldn't get that anyway. They're not going to give 9-12 next year for Howe.

We need to go after a player on the Pies list that walks into our best 22. Not the fringe players they will offer us like Kennedy, Broomhead or Sinclair.

We don't seem to have any interest in Seedsman or Freeman, so I'd start by asking for Marley Williams or Tom Langdon, and I'd settle for Brayden Maynard.

Brayyyyyyyyyden Mayyyyyyyyyyynard

Posted something similar a few weeks back. I would like to get Maynard or Langdon...time for them to give up something decent.

No of course not But I felt better saying it.

I think we will get a reasonable deal out of the Pies not as good as GCS perhaps but ok.

Pick 3, part of a larger complicated trade. Obviously not going back to GC.

So that complicated trade chip is still with one of the players in that complicated trade...

Look, either you are being sold something dodgy, or you're selling it.

Oxley has literally played 3 good games in his career and is 3 year older.

Maynard has played just as well and is tougher, better skilled, a better natural footballer and scope to play midfield. He is Hodge-like.

If the deal about prestia was true tell Gold Coast to trade him for pick 6 and we let Howe slip to PSD Then they have a fair chance of grabbing him as they have pick 3, would need Carlton and lions not to obviously

I don't think he would be worth a top 10 pick let alone a top 3 where there are better players available

    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,

    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. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. 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.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the
