    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.

Watts - His best game for the club

Tyson - At the contest all day. Unobtrusive but a gun.

VDB - Best game for the year. Took a very strong mark. Avenue to goal.

Stretch. Nice outside run. Looked like his old man at times.

Petracca - Geez this kid has class.

O mac . Showed why the selectors have stuck with him.

6. Watts. Nothing more needs to be said

5. Tyson. Another really good inside mid game. Great hands in close and a couple nice kicks. Yes got caught badly once but looked to be the only mid who held his own against a team of nobodies

4. Frost. No goals from the other two talls for the Suns plus some great rebounding runs. Love his pace and competitiveness 

3. VDB. I think he is still better as a mid but has solid hands over his head which is why he is played as 4th tall most game then rotates through for bursts. In form is best 22 bur probably didn't deserve to be there this week but showed us all why he is rated

2. Gawn. Should have polled higher but have no idea where he was tapping the pill today. Hit Suns boys a bit to frequently but was still solid

1. T-Mac. odd I know but I rate Lynch so highly. Would have him over any other forward in the league and Tommy ran with him all game and held him to two.

I agree.  Will be a close thing between Jack W, Max and Jack V.  If Watts continues he will get it.  What a great day that would be!

This ^

Also like your avatar WD - that guy was gonna be anything before being struck by injury.

So happy 3 players I have had worries about previously have 'stuck it up me'

Watts continues to confirm his potential has finally been realised and Sam and Oscar are continuing to reduce their weekly clangers and improve their decision making in recent matches. Wasn't overly excited by the teams effort today but all credit to those 3

6 Watts... yes clearly BOG

5 Frost... Developing very well. Skills need improvement though.

4 Tyson...got it and was the best midfielder clearly

3 Stretch... run run Billy run

2 Vandenburg... got the goals when others forget that is the reason 

1 Jetta ...steady once again except when he and t.mcd contested a mark

Apologies to big Maxy.

O.mcd was okay but still clangers, bodied out in marking contests and his weak handballs reflect poor intensity.

B. Vince ... minus 6 even though Lynch didn't convert

Nice to see the young McDonald receiving a few votes. He seems to have taken over Watts and Grimes role as the whipping boy this year.

6 Watts - clear matchwinner

5 Tyson - only prolific ballwinner and not as many brain fades as others

Then really hard because everyone else butchered the ball so much.

4 Frost - dash and run against a good tall

3 Stretch - Great first half and one major brainfade

2 O.Mac - Still not strong in one-on-ones but started to intercept like his brother

1 VB - Shocking start but then found his range midway through second term.

Yeah youre right.  Looking over his season and hes barely played a bad game, and plenty of very good ones. Think Gawny will be leading at this point but Watts last month and  a bit has been better than Jack Vineys so hes moved right into contention.

Youd think that would be the top 3 but never underestimate the skipper. And Nev Jetta will be up there.

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    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

    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
