    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.

Great. Whats your final Tri combo Macca....? If Ace wins, it will be the first High Chaparral to win over 1200. Would be awesome.

Should be a good race Wadda, a first time for everything.

My sis visiting with her kids saved me a trip to Casey. I can enjoy the rest of the days racing.

Thats what sisters are for. Ace High would have brained them if there was another 100m.

Yeah as soon as Ace High was at the tail of the field you knew it probably couldn't win - 'needed the run' by the looks of it.  Global Glamour was run out of a place anyway so I was way off with that trifecta. 

Cashed out on 1 of my 2 live multi's (Eurack,  Bedford & Bye See) but it could be an even better day if 'Don't Give A Damn' salutes.

Thanks for the heads up on 'Eurack' & 'Bye See' fellas ... reinforcing a 'best bet' seems to be a good addition to our system.

Nice work Macca, cheering for 'Don't Give A Damn'. My last leg is 'Dainty Tess'.

@Wadda We Sing  ... yeah dipped out on the Tri in the Expressway.  Got one going at Ascot in the Scenic Blast Stakes (7pm)  and another in the Centenary Vase at Sha Tin tomorrow (5pm)

It's always nice to have a 'saver' but I can see these 3 race multi's/Parlay's being reasonably profitable.  You prefer the 3 race parlay's from memory.  I got one today so it's been a decent day.  And it isn't over yet!

Don't Give A Damn is into 2.40

All the way win, I thought it was paddling there for a while but nothing was gaining ground.

Dainty Tess is needed to salute for my parlay and i also have no.2,4/2,4/F in a tri in the Scenic.

Well both @Demon77 and myself like Dainty Tess to win (best of luck with that multi D77) but I also like 'Volkoff' at odds to feature.  You could work a Tri from that Wadda but don't forget to include 'Caipirinha' ...  Ascot Race 6

Keep this up fellas and we'll have a Demonland marquee at the Melbourne Cup.:)

Yeah I've had a decent day - hopefully you and Wadda can both win late.   Don't Give A Damn could now well be set for the Doncaster Hcp ($3Million)  ... it kicked away in impressive fashion at the top of the straight.

Lol, It's a small tri, Macca mentioned it in an earlier post and he's been very close to the mark with horses at double figure odds.. Just looking for some value in the top 2.

 Cheers Macca, I could have collected already if I'd thrown Bye See in instead of Dainty Tess. I went with Eurack, Don't Give A Damn, Dainty Tess combo.

Either way, it hasn't been too expensive and it's great that some of us have profited out of this.

Thats a good combination. So did you put that on as a multi over the different tracks i guess. So those bets are $5 min...? Its a good way to bet in that case, i have done this also last Spring, so ill have a look at that next time.

All good Wadda, I've had a couple of drinks and the question sounded funny to me(in a good way), didn't mean to sound abrupt. 

Race is on soon, good luck with your tri. Yeah i placed the bet at the Tab just before you nominated Bedford as your best, could have cleaned up today.

Yes the min bet is $5 at the Tab.

With multi's at the TAB we haven't got the option of 'Each-Way' so you have to painstakingly put separate bets on - or,  ring them and ask them to put all the configurations on. 

I've arrived at doing it a different way - I'm banking on getting 2 from 3 winners or 3 from 4 winners so will do a series of separate bets for the win only.

e.g.  we arrive at 3 best bets over the course of the week.  I will then put all 3 on for the win in a multi and any 2 of the 3 for the win only as well (a double)

If we end up with 4 picks or if I want to add another to the 3 I will repeat the same process but have 'saver' bets on 3 of the 4. 

In a nutshell we identified 6 best bets today (in a roundabout way)  ... Eurack (W)  Snitty Kitty (2nd) Bedford (W) Bye See (W) Don't Give A Damn (W) and Dainty Tess (yet to run)  All 6 were 'reinforced by at least one of us other than the person who originally identified the best bet.  

I'm not going to count 'From Within' in the 1st at Rosehill as I thought it was only each way value.

    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

    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
