    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 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.

Yeah I was thinking of putting up a 3/5 exacta ($12) as I've been doing quite well with that type of exotic bet in the racing off-season.  Can one multi up an exacta with win bets Wadda? 

But I am doing a 'Deeza' and will be putting on a box6 F4 in the CF Orr Stakes ... only issue is that I narrowed it down to 8 choices then PL (in advance) kicked in!

Anyway,  I'm on with our 3 choices so good luck everyone!

Some of those odds came in a bit. I managed to get 22 boosted.

I know you can put a quinella in a parlay on the TAB. Thats the only time ive seen it. Cant d that with ladbrokes anyway, im assuming ditto with the other corporates.

How much rain did we get at the track? Rained a bit up here...

Craig Williams mentioned that the track is running really well Wadda and it's still a Good4.

Anyway,  the super-tipster @Dee Zephyr  has got 1 on the board again with 'Crack the Code' saluting.  Looked the winner a long way from home.  Hands & heels as well - often a good sign.  A blackbooker.

A work mate has a connection with the runner-up ‘News Girl’ , she’s ran terrific in both defeats to ‘ Crack The Code’, trained from Albury way. Might pay to watch her as well in something easier although you could say she handled this type of class extremely well.

Nature Strip just way too good for that lot ... beat a few handy types such as Voodoo Lad though.  Just too quick and they can't get near him.

And how lucky is Chris Waller inheriting this horse?  Like winning lotto.

2 from 2 so far for James Jordan over in Morphettville today ... I was on Blue Hope in race 2 so 'Safari JJ' might be in for a decent day. 

Got a few multi's going with his selections.  Go here for his tips

'I am Immortal' with a gutsy win in the Blue Diamond Prelude for C & G's ... fought hard to line - always a good sign.

The Blue Diamond is shaping up as keenly contested affair.  The next race for the fillies will tell us something too.

It's great ... but sometimes the choices just can't get a run.  Naseeb the classic example.  On any other day the run presents and it wins by 2 lengths.  A good thing beaten.   That's racing.

Because it drew the 1 gate it had to be run for luck ... jockey could have switched to the outside but I reckon the horse was ridden to instructions. 

With 2 leg multi's there's always the option of re-booting.

Well Social Sin!

That was almost strange, perfect run but nothing? Looked almost like the ground beat him.

Yep ... but the Hayes horse looks a goodin' 

It was a tough race to find a clear winner.  Social Spin nearly always leads but Hawkshot drew the 1 barrier and as we found out,  has excellent barrier speed.  Too good.

We're about to find out how good 'Whispering Brook' is too ... but it's a crack field with any number of winning chances.  Last year they dawdled up front and then Hartnell won in a blanket finish.

There is a bit of early speed this time so hopefully we'll see a truly run race ... I've got a F4 going in the race but I reckon Redkirk Warrior gets into the finish.

    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.

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.

    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
