    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.

On days like this it seems like everyone will be giving different votes. 

6. Viney - when it was there to be won, he won it for us. Then went off and still was one of our leading ball getters. 

5. Gawn - dominated. Thought Currie did well, but Gawn just was dominant around the ground. 

4. Harmes - 14 to begin with and 3 goals. Finished with 26 and had 4 inside 50's. Sneaky rising star nom this week. 

3. N Jones - picked up where Viney left off. Great to see him dominate a game again. 

2. Hunt - his speed is seriously good. He is looking better and better as the year is going on. 

1. Bugg - 13 contensted possessions, lead these and top 2 for tackles and top for clearances. He is making this position his own.

6 - Tom Bugg -  and people say hes just a pest?    26 disposals, 7 tackles, 8 clearances, 7 inside 50's

5 - Clayton Oliver -  his handballs are like a work of art. He is the Mozart of contested disposals

4 - Nevilla Jetta - smashed anyone he played on

3 - Max Gawn -  brilliant again, even had 5 shots on goal for 2.3

2 -  Nathan Jones - a classic Jones performance

1 -  Jack VIney - set the tone in the 2nd half as he always does for us

 

Apologies -  the rest of the team

Gawn - It all starts here and can go forward and kick a goal.

Viney - Made  a big statement in the third quarter

Jones - There's a reason he's captain.

Harmes - Got a shitload of the ball and used it well.

Jetta - Does his job and more. Has guts.

Oliver - Cant believe I have to put  a kid in the votes.  He is a genuine  [censored]  brutal beast. Cant wait till he starts to shave!!

Unbelievably difficult this week...even more so as just watching on the telly not at the game.

 

6 - Gawn: he was immense all game

5 - Viney: I have always thought he could be our Joel Selwood...could he be better than Joel Selwood?

4 - Jetta: he's just about my favourite player, I love the way he plays and he's a player who's fought so hard

3 - Jones: it's always great when he's hitting the scoreboard, and that Gawn to Jones move inside 50 is sublime to see

2 - Harmes: his game for the club, he was a terrier defensively and just added huge hustle and bustle around packs

1 - Hunt: an attacking weapon off half-back, his speed and line-breaking is brilliant

 

last two spots could've been raffled btw Harmes, Hunt, Oliver and Petracca.

 

Oliver and Petracca are going to be lethal together. Exciting times.

6.  Gawn  -  Impossible to go past big Maxy imo.  He just had so much influence (gave our mids an armchair ride, kicked goals, took marks around the ground and always had a smirk on his face.

5.  N. Jones -  True captains' game.  Led from the front from start to finish.

4.  Viney  -  A powerhouse!.  Just keeps improving, and is becoming more and more damaging by hand and foot.  Probably pips Jonesy if he had played out the full game.

3.  Jetta  -  Steady as a rock, gutsy, composed under pressure, and never gives up.  Just a thoroughly good footballer.

2.  Harmes  -  Great comeback after being down last week.  How good is to have some depth to bring the best out of our boys?

1.  Hunt  -  Confidence is growing.  Blistering pace, hard at it and was very creative with the ball.  Based on today's game he might be the real deal!

Special mentions:  Oliver, Bugg, Pedersen

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    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.

    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

    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
