Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • 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.

Fair bit of value already with Master of Wine & Miami Bound.  And to be honest I'd rather trust the collective knowledge of the ADATR crew than my own thoughts. 

Boxing 6 with a small outlay can still pay a decent dividend especially with a F4.  I first struck upon the idea when you made mention of a collect in the Caulfield Cup (?) a couple of years ago.  Think it was a Box 6 F4 IIRC.

Interesting, never done that with 6 runners.

Yep Macca, that was a fluke and a half but that’s what you’re looking for in Lady Luck. 

6 is a good number and like you said it doesn’t have to be a huge outlay.

Fierce Impact or Kings Will Dream for mine in the Makybe... Unsure which way to lean at this stage ?

Had 'em both in mind JV,  don't worry!

And putting together an exotic combo is not necessarily for my benefit.  Anyone can use the picks.

I'm a great believer in team and with regards to the punt, I'm not sure the team aspect has been explored properly.  Just my view of course.

For instance,  I'm liking the extra best bets that we currently have this Spring.  The large multi is an option especially for a small outlay but I also like to pluck the eyes out of the picks for straight wins,  double's or even a treble. 

Got 4 collects last week out of the 6 picks and turned a profit.  And all our choices this week look like standouts to me.

Hi All,

I think I spruiked My Gold Bracelet on here and it came 3rd after a wide run last start.In the Price/Kent Jnr stable from NZ looking for Black Type Glory.

It's at 10-1 fixed in race 4. Only 4-1 on the tote.

I expect Oliver to ride a double in races 3 and 4.

But my roughie this week is in Race 1 at HQ.  Roland Garros .

They are predicting 20-30 mls of rain and Roland Garros has proven Heavy track form.

Currently about 26-1 and definitely worth a bob each way to get you off to a flyer.

Happy Punting and good luck.

If you barrack for the MFC God knows you deserve it.

...And 'Rolling Fog'

Interested in posters thoughts with regards to the Makybe Diva Group1

I've got Master of Wine as my best bet (place only) but I'm thinking of taking out a box Tri or Box F4.

As much as it's often best to leave the best bet races alone I don't want to curtail any conversations on a big Group 1.

I do fancy Master of Wine but the exotics could pay a bit on the race.

So feel free to proffer up your choice

The event is Race 7 and the field,  form & odds in a post above (near the top of the page)

I like Fierce Impact now ....5 from 5 placings in the soft, have to throw it in...

Ok so we've got Miami Bound,  Master of Wine,  Fierce Impact,  Kings Will Dream and I'll throw in Russian Camelot & Warning (for a bit of value. 

4,  7,  9,  10,  13 & 16

Betting has closed! 

Good luck today to all the punters out there and lets hope the ADATR choices come through with the goods!

Anyone give ABN (Flem R9 No.2) a chance? The fellas at work are hoping for some luck. I dare say a few of them if not all will be calling in sick on Monday if she wins. In excess of 100-1 earlier in the week. Good luck to them.

Its sectional ratings are the 2nd best in the race, however most of those were recorded on the good. Being out of Night of Thunder you would think the rain affected ground would suit. Certainly has come in. Wide open race.

Apologies a few technical issues at Chateau Fog this morning. Here's a few thoughts for this afternoon at headquarters and Rosehill:

(I've tried to go with picks that haven't been posted already, but apologies if I'm doubling up anywhere)

Best Bets:
Flemington
Race 5, No. 7 - Toffee Tongue - it's a wide field and I also like Shot of Irish and Aktau in this race, Toffee Tongue EW I think
Race 7, No. 4 - Fierce Impact - again, another wide field and I also like the look of Russian Camelot and Master of Wine, EW again I think...

Rosehill
Race 5, no. 7 - Mo'unga
Race 6, No. 1 - Farnan
Race 7, No. 5 - Funstar

Best Value:
Flemington
Race 9, No. 13 - Yoesmite
Race 6, No. 5 - Tshahitsi

    TRAINING: Friday 19th April 2024

    They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise.  Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers. They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise. 36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages. Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes. Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sim

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
