Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

6. Vince. Played a massive midfield role AND kicked 3 goals.

5. Gawn. Another stellar ruck performance plus 2 goals and some key defensive marks.

4. Viney. An absolute bull who also flies the flag for his team-mates.

3. Tyson. His first really good game this year. 31 possessions and 2 goals

2. McDonald. Held down defense exceptionally. His disposal is the only thing stopping him from being elite.

1. Garlett. The best forward on the ground all night.

Gawn. Dominated and clearly BOG for mine.

Vince . Tough when it matted and kicking goals from the midfield

Viney. Wow he is a machine 

Garlett. Had a big impact either kicking or creating goals

Tyson. He makes a difference to the team when he is on

Watts. He is becoming very consistent and on track for a great year

6 - Gawn (supreme)

5 - Viney (dominant - he is a beast)

4 - Tyson (best game for the year)

3 - Vince (stepped up when we needed him to)

2 - Kent (ran hard all day and he's in good form)

1 - Garlett (played an excellent small forward's game)

 

Others who played well ... basically everyone else.  Like last week, we didn't have a poor player (IMO)

For 3 weeks in a row, we haven't got an obvious candidate to be dropped (Stretch was dropped after the North game but he didn't play a poor game in that match)  Some of our players who didn't figure well in the stats still played their part.

So in essence it was a great team effort with some absolute standout performances (Gawn, Viney & Tyson) I could have easily given Watts, McDonald & Jones votes and it was a toss-up between Viney & Gawn for the 6 votes.

The top two were magnificent tonight. No other word for it.

Hard to fathom giving T Mac a vote with his turnovers, but the rest of his game is so unbelievably good. He toys with you as a supporter.

6 Gawn - Set the win up with an amazing first half, before tiring a little in the second and he got done over a bit by umps again.

5 Viney - Originally was having trouble with Townsend's hard tag, but then willed himself and the team to the win in he second half.

4 Tyson - What a game by him. How many times was he caught with it this week - I think only one. And his kicking was the best it's been.

3 Vince - Sometimes you forget what a great kick he is and then you watch his left foot snap for his first and realise he's got skill and hardness covered.

2 T-Mac - Rance is the best defender in the league (and after tonight quite a few other things), but T-Mac isn't far behind him. And only one clanger kick for the night when the game was all over.

1 Kent - how many hard chases, how many unselfish hand offs before he finally snagged one himself in the last. By far his most complete game yet.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
