  • 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.

Viney has a knuckle injury doesn't he? Whilst having surgery suggests lengthy recovery time in order for the bone to fully heal, I imagine the risks involved in breaking it again are less than other areas of the body. 

He'd have to hit somebody again with his hand or someone would have to kick his knuckle or something for further setback.

I feel like it's super important for him to play this week for a must win game for us. He can miss next week because I can't see us beating the swans in any way. And then there's the bye so that's two weeks off.

Yes, I'm a doctor.

Viney plays.

 

He didn't break it hitting someone though, if that's what you thought?

SEN saying Cloke has been dropped~

What's with the old regime of teams being embargoed until 6:25 pm Thurs?  There's articles on MFC website today, indicating Oscar & Frost are both pretty much definites for Monday, and it's also been announced Viney & Kennedy are in our squad for Monday...

Has something changed?

Don't know Vagg.  The source for the Cloke change appears to be Cloke himself to a a reporter. If true, not always the Club's at fault.

But I think the coaches do interviews on Wed/Thur and its a bit hard for them to answer no questions.

Btw, Roos also said Dawes is playing.

Ok.. Im a big Michie fan more then anyone but you need to take you 'Viv Michie number 1 ticket holder fan club' hat off.

Grimes Kennedy Newton and ANB are far more better options then Viv. He played 1 qtr in the midfield against Port and that was in the last qtr.. He has no place in our midfield anynore. Even Wagner and Hunt are already ahead of him in the back half.

Sad because i like Viv but thats the reality. Whether your a cousin or family relative i think its time to start accepting that Viv will struggle to make it past this year.

Not a relative at all. Yes I am a fan of his and I think he is harshly treated and yo yo's in and out despite playing reasonably well in most games. Others seem to get selected week in week out on less but that's just my opinion Was certainly hard done by getting dropped two weeks ago. I agree he will probably go at the end of the season but it seems he is in the squad this week.

They said on the radio today that the pies would likely bring witts in to go up against gawn in the ruck. Then on 9 they just said cloke dropped. He kicked 7 in the corresponding game last year. Wow I was so worried he'd find form against us and kick straight and a big number. But did nayone see the contest that he shirked out of last weel? They showed it on footy classified. If it was Watts that did it it would have been everywhere and more spoken about it. 

Dropping Jeffy is interesting. But he did have a shocker last week.

    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,

    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. 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.
