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.

I grabbed it from the 'Sad Dr Who' gif, in the midst of our horrible performances a while back:

He's also the sexiest man alive, and has convinced me that one's sexuality isn't binary, but rather sits somewhere on a sliding scale...

 

More proof (don't worry, SFW):

Thanks. On the smaller picture he looked a bit like Neil Finn.

PS. Doesn't he own an umbrella?

Steven or Billy Stretch and where was it reported.

Steven said it, but it was just his opinion.  He actually said that Billy didn't know anything about it, but that's because he is back in SA.

They have literally taken the info from here and posted it on their FB page.  No quotes, no articles, just a few lines of 'inside info.'

Nah, he looks better in the rain.

As the 11th doctor later said about the 10th doctor 'I had vanity issues at the time'.

Unfortunately I didn't hear it and I have no faith in people reporting what was actually said.

When you say Hogan's management said "it was so far from the truth" I'd bet your life that that wasn't said verbatim, but more the interpretation of your fertile mind.

I suspect they did laugh it off and just said nothing has changed.

Not sure they could even say anything if it was true? surely it would be 100% confidential between them and the club, perhaps they found it amusing that he called them to ask.

Just had a listen. It was in the Sam Maclure segment.

Indeed they didn't quote Hogan's management directly. Healy said that based on the response from his management, the rumour that Hogan was about to sign a long term deal was wrong. Maclure added that it was "very far off the mark", which sounded a little ominous.

I am not sure why anyone would listen to anyone..

Now I probably won't even believe the MFC when they announce that he has re-signed.

Thanks, as I suspected.  

It wasn't Hogan's management being quoted at all.  And I wouldn't read much into McLure's comments, which may just mean we're not close to a decision.

Never, I repeat never, trust a poster's version of what they heard on the radio or tv.

Speculation pointless till after GF as we wouldn't announce it this week, even if he'd signed.

Fingers crossed it's done in lead up to trade period, next week.

We just announced the re-signing of Tyson who had been out of contract end of 2017, same as Hogan.

True. :( I'm hoping the difference is that Tyson is a much lower profile player and was not speculated to be considering leaving the MFC...

Just to clarify, their interpretation of the rumour is that he has already signed for 4 years?

Jesse's form this year was below expectations. Jonathan Brown speculated his value at $15m early in the season, he would be lucky to secure half that amount now or even less.

 

You would have to think that a strong performance this year would have a huge impact on his value.

 

Just doesnt make sense for him to lock in a low value now, when surely his management and he himself see his potential as greater than what he has delivered to date.

I'm getting the feeling this is all stemming from one unsubstantiated Facebook post.  No new facts or details have emerged as yet.

Of course I hope I'm wrong.

Hogan would be offered $1 mil by multiple clubs if he was on the market.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
