  • 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.

Ohh the guy who emphatically stated no less than a week ago that Curnow would be our first picked, that guy?

We could very well end up selecting Oliver but Brett Anderson would have just as much clue as you or I.

Are yes, the famous quote that was referenced that made me ask for a link. I was then critised for not believing said poster.

Of course, in reality Anderson was doing nothing more than guessing, which he has since confirmed.

He's still guessing, but it's an educated guess now.

Anyone still think we got screwed on Howe? We plugged pick 29 directly in to a trade we were going to use Howe in. That was his market value. Anyone also still care that we used 25 instead of 29 for

Heard Worsfold interviewed just now...sound very much like they will take a tall at 4 or 5. Could mean Weidman will be gone by 7.

Great, even better for us! If they take Weideman then that'll leave us with either Parish or Francis for pick 7 (assuming Ah Chee is drafted by Gold Coast)

My late mail is that we'll bid on Mills at 3 and then take Weideman at 4.

We want him too much and aren't prepared to risk him not being available at our 2nd pick.

We like Oliver, Parish and Francis and will take whichever one is still there at our 2nd pick.

I'd be happy with this outcome.

We need to add to our midfield so would prefer Parish or Oliver over Francis.

Highly doubt we'll take Weideman at 4.. but wait and see.

This would probably go against what Goodwin was just talking about 30 minutes ago....

This makes perfect sense if we really want Weideman.

How reliable is your "mail".

Before trade period I heard second hand from Sam's dad that Melbourne were definitely the most interested club. A few days ago I heard again that Mark thought Sam will be going to Melbourne. It sounds like we do definitely want him, but how much we want him compared to Oliver/Parish I have no idea.

I am slowly coming around to Sam Weideman being a demon now. I do admit he is a impressive in the way he speaks and presents himself. at 196cm with vice like hands it is a bit exciting.

My biggest worry is obviously his body..

How will you all be watching the draft tonight?

Don't have FOXTEL and would have been watching it from my phone (In-app subscription/ not live pass) but broke it two days ago.

Does anyone know if you can stream it through the AFL website "Live Pass" login???

If so I'll just pay the $5 for a "weekly pass".

Goody just said we will take best available with 3 and 7 and not neccasarily a forward, so we could end up with Oliver and Francis

Thanks mate, I have a feeling it will start at 6:30 pm so the commercials should stop soon.

Are you watching via your phone, tablet or PC?

Tablet. AFL TV with some old footage on. The thumbnail says 2015 NAB DRAFT though.

Getting all too excited now! Hopefully this will be the last time we have picks in the top 10 for a long time.

Good luck to Jason Taylor and his crew.. Will be absolutely backing him to nail this draft like he has the past couple of years.

    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,
