    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.

Glad you stopped drinking D77..... :)

 

Lol, that’s all I felt like doing after hearing the news about TMac/Viney today.

Get On is on now and I just flicked over, only 15 minutes left though, haven’t spotted the Guru yet.

Edit to the post above @Wadda We Sing

As I was submitting the above reply, Get On showed JJ’s best bets for Morphetville.

Race 2 #5 Sagaab $2.70W Tab

Race 9 #7 Manuel $2.70W Tab

Yeah the 'Get On' crew call James Jordan 'Safari JJ' - suit related? :ph34r:

Anyway,  we've at least got a couple of his tips in advance - I'll be getting on!

They all tipped well last week especially 'Gator' who tipped a heap of winners - he's another who knows his stuff.

I noted their “Best” for the weekend.  

5 horses adds up to around $123 for the multi. Worth a fiver Macca?

Agree with you on Gator, I’ve always enjoyed listening to him.

Rosehill track currently rated as a heavy8 but with no more rain forecast the track might end up being rated as a soft7 improving as the day goes on. 

There's a bit of wind about tomorrow so that might dry the track out a bit as well.  What we do know is that the conditions won't be like last year where the track was rated as a heavy10

No good tonight was the Gator ... 1 winner only.  'Safari JJ' will hopefully provide a few winners for us tomorrow :ph34r:

'Hellbent' salutes in the William Reid Stakes ... very impressive and a terrific ride by Williams.  Weir gets another Group 1.   The First4 paid over 8k yet all the horses involved in the finish were decent.  Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing D77? ha ha

Spanish Reef was also quite imposing in the Sunline Stakes ... destined now for Sydney and could do well up there - worth following at least.

I tuned in to watch the William Reid only out of interest. Good price for Hellbent Macca, sooner or later it was going to produce its customary finishing burst and beat them home. I was surprised with the F4 dividend. Catchy ran a great race, it looked like the horse was going backwards prior to the final turn.

I just finished a phone conversation with my mate, he’s so pumped about tomorrow he won’t be able to sleep.

Barrier 7 for Gai’s 7th Slipper???

I hope it salutes for the sole fact of seeing him on the TV carrying on like a looney. He thinks Sunlight and Written By are special horses and they hope Santos jumps well and settles into the first few or so.

G'day punters. Super tricky day at Rosehill tomorrow, a bit more straight forward at Mornington

Best bet (and my best of the Autumn thus far): Gailo Chop- a ratings special if ever there was one. At 115 a full 6 points (and therefore 6 lengths) clear of the next best. Loves rain affected going with 3 wins and second from 5 starts on the slow and 3 from 3 in the heavy. 6 from 12 at the distance is not too shabby either. Has Zahra on board who is in hot form.

Best value: Peribsen

Best long shot: Ball of Muscle (with apologies to Fragonard) 

And if you want o make some some small change can't go wrong backing Kah in Adelaide for the jockey challenge. not sure what she is tomorrow as they don't put the market up until the morning, but i doubt will be much over 1.50. But she will win easing down. if she is much longer than 1.50 then good value

As stated above, tough day coming up.

Best Bet: Rosehill Race 3 No. 6 Alward. $3.80

Each Way Best: Rosehill R8 No.5 English.

Good luck to Santos today, not often do you find a close mate having a runner in the Slipper. 

Happy punting fellow Demonlanders!

Im sticking with Ace High. The soft ground is a bit of an unknown factor, but he hasnt been beaten past 1800m.

The winner of the first (I Am Excited) ran 1:11.45 so the track may not be all that badly effected by the rain.  The horses weren't cutting the track up that much either.

Apparently it was the wrong tip ... anyway,  you got the win, Wadda. 

I backed Tunes each-way so money back (as it was in the first race)  By the way,  Tunes has had over 100 races!

    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.

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
