  • 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.

(b)          Subject to  Rule 20(c) below, a Player who has played in an AFL Home and Away Match after 1 July in the relevant season will be ineligible to play in VFL Senior Grade or Development League Finals Series Matches unless that Player has played in a combined total of at least six (6) Senior Grade or Development League Home and Away Matches in the same season.

(g)          Despite any other provision in Rule 20, where a Club does not field a Development League Team, an AFL listed Player must:

(i)           qualify under Regulation 20(b); and

(ii)          have played no more than 12 AFL Home and Away Matches,

 

So after reading this, we are fielding a D-League team therefore it doesnt matter if they've played more than 12 AFL matches? 

Salem has played 5 matches (nope); Oliver is about to play his 6th (13 AFL games); Kennedy 6 (15 AFL games). Hoping that we do get Kennedy and Oliver for the finals. What a midfield! 

That would be right so Kennedy is eligible and Oliver becomes eligible if he plays today. The question is whether all of those players will actually be available as some might need surgery or even to be rested in order to fulfill organised pre season training programmes for next year. Whichever way it pans out, I think we can expect Casey to field very strong teams and, for once (because it's never happened since the alignment began with Melbourne) they might even win a finals game.

Salem is eligible as well, he played one game in the development league as well which counts for his six.  I count 19 AFL players that are eligible, it will be interesting to  see how many play though.  I suspect Oliver or Wiederman might be rested but we will wait and see.

Yep, according to inside football Salem made his 6th VFL game last week.

Rounds 9 & 18-22.

My understanding is that regardless of todays result Casey will finish top two as Williamstown has the bye.

Pardon my ignorance but will there be a final for Casey next week and, if so, at North Port Oval?

Also, with Travis Cloke getting a farewell game with the Pies this weekend I believe he is ineligible for VFL finals? Good news for us if correct!

Looks like they wanted Oliver to get some VFL finals experience.

Thanks Angry. Wonder if he will play VFL finals. He is not in need of surgery, so it will be about if he is going to be better for the run.

Has Chris Dawes played his last game for the club?

Perhaps we are wrapping him in cotton wool before he goes to Richmond?

Dawes has an issue with an achilles.  Tried to train yesterday and could barely run.

Makes sense. Saw him trying to run early Tuesday morning and pulling up sore. Thought it might have been his knee

    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.

    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. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. 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
