  • 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.

Probably worth closing this thread perhaps now?

I don't like the odds of Rockliff coming to Melbourne. But you never know!

The thread can only be closed on Thursday at 2pm

I didn't say that. I said Brisbane knew nothing about the complex trade posted. "Are you working on a complex deal  involving Dunn and future picks with Melbourne for Rocky?" "No."

I don't get a lot of inside AFL news but was told today that he is off to the bombers and it won't be done until last thing Thursday 

Surely Dunn and our second round pick should trump the Bombers? I would hate to see our 2016 second round pick secure EFC an A-grader! We have to stand firm and offer them our 2017 pick for Hibberd. In summary, our 2016 & 2017 Second Round picks secure us Rockcliff and Hibberd (and we see Dunn off to a nice home rather than the filth)!

For those that think GD was lied to you realise your saying the Operations Manager of Brisbane lied to him and fabricated a story about a complex trade scenario and that the same scenario was verified from a separate reliable source.

Personally I don't find that feasible, but each to their own. 

Maybe his family don't like him. Or they have a cool sense of humour. Or both

Graham Wight said last week Lewis wont be traded.

 

Enjoy the rumours ride while it lasts in my opinion

rocky is a free agent next year.?

Exactly, so it's ludicrous to offer up next years first round pick. If there is any hope, it's the Hibberd deal holding things up. This years second round for Rockliff and next years second round for Hibberd seems more realistic. If Ess aren't budging then it's stopping the works. Insert circus music.

C'mon PD, it's the Zanotti Files!  With a name like that it has to be believable.

As you say, Rocky was done and dusted the moment Mahoney said so.  Those who chose to believe otherwise were just holding on to a pipe dream.

 Can't we throw Dunn in (to stop him going to Collingwood)?

It is, if we can get him next year for free?

I think we're keeping our 2nd Rnd pick to use in the 2016 draft.  

Unless something comes up, out of the blue,'s ?

What are you talking about. Have you never had blue cod on a camping trip?

 

I'd like to play you at poker. you'll believe anything from anyone.  Don't you know by now that any words spoken/written/printed, particularly from business people, are as good as bathroom paper.

Not worth zak.

Barrett said yesterday on trade radio that we asked the question early on, decided he wasn't in our price range and moved on, so that's as far as it got apparently.

    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

    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
