    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.

Looked at the Dogs' team, seems like they only have about 8 listed players, no Stringer. Fair to say it looks like an easy win by selections

Don't say that! :unsure:

JKH mystery injury of the week.

We know about Pedersen.

Max King in the D League.

They might have pulled the pin on JKH given the injury history this year.

Good to see the MFC not pulling the piss this year and allowing the players who got Casey to this point the chance to finish the job.

JKH came off in the last quarter at Box Hill after failing dismally in a chase on a B/Hill player.He came off straight away, lay down and had his hammies administered to. Nothing mysterious, just another Hammie tweak. He had been a very good player before that, apart from one kicking across the ground brain fade...

Fair enough, thanks for that.

God damn that's a good team

Dunn, Garland, Hutchy and Keilty down back..... Very hard to penetrate

Weideman, Terlich, Smith, Hulett up forward.... Plenty of targets to kick too

Spencer, Oliver, Salem, ANB, Trengrove, Kennedy, Grimes.... Probably the best midfield in the competition at the moment

This is gonna be one helluva game

Newton named in both the Dev team and Firsts??

Looking forward to the game - should get a few D'landers along.  Need to work out the secret handshake thingy.

I enjoy watching some of the peripheral players - Keilty, Joel Smith, Hulett - as much as those that get a run in the MFC team.

Just the sought of thing to make our players take this game in a comfortable mindset, & lose.   And at Casey as well  So the doggies will come switched on for sure.

The Doggies have great fighting spirit at their club now.

Our team is full of talented players for this level, & youngsters who know no better, but in the same breath, its full of players who like things on their terms, & perennial losers a lot of them. 

Dunn, Grimes, Garland, Spencer, Kennedy, Terlich,  all have lost far more games, than they have been involved in winning them.

This is a danger game for us.

They haven't done a lot of losing this year, I doubt they're interested in starting now.

I don't think the woes of dropping games we've seen in the Melbourne team applies to Casey. This is a solid team full of players who excel at this level, who will be choc full of confidence, have momentum, and will be hungry. It's only a danger game in the sense that every final is a danger game.

I wonder if there will be any resentment if all the spots are given to MFC players and some Scorp regulars miss out.

Isn't that always!! Ah such a sweeeet alignment eh??

Thanks for the update Angry but I'll hope they win this one and watch them when they are a bit closer to home.

Romsey to Casey is a lovely trip

The Casey finals is only delaying the culling process. Who cares about reserves finals.

Lots of us!

And, all the players who are unlikely or are 50/50 to be re-contracted by MFC, would be keen to impress our coaches and other club recruiters to get a chance at a contract elsewhere.

    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

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

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
