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.

Best bet. Flemington Race 8

no 7 $4.80 win (5.50 boosted)

Streetcar Stranger

Best Bet Doomben (Saturday)

R7 No.2 Mugatoo 6.00/1.70

Meets the topweight Zaaci 3kgs better off despite beating it home by 2 lengths in the Doncaster

Or ... the place bet in a multi could be used as 1 of 2 bankers.  I'd be surprised if Mugatoo isn't in the finish

As for your pick Gorg,  Streetcar is a big chance!

Tonight at Geelong in the last Bowing runs, the guy at work who’s family owns/part owns said watch it, but they are saying by third run it will be cherry ripe but they are keen on Just Folk in the last at Sandown on Sunday as a EW prospect.

@Macca canasta runs tomorrow, first back which I was told isn’t usually at its best (runs better second up), but it’s trial it nearly beat two sprinters over 1000 and they are very happy with how it looks. They are Hoping the track dries some more.

Ran a good race and nearly hung on to win ... our other hopes weren't in it though!

There was some value up at Eagle Farm but I only got Apache Chase up.  Got out with a reasonable percentage of the trifecta in the last at Morphettville 

But at E/Farm I left out a good horse in Exhilarates and didn't follow up on Vega One.  You live & learn!

Kukeracha & Tiger of Malay were great value as well but the punters didn't go after either of them

Canasta ran very well, pity it couldn’t quite make it. Got one winner and 7 places so I’ve a lot of bonus bets and sod all cash ? 
 

Yeah our two selections ran poor. But can’t always be right.

Mine is Flem Race 9, 13 Excelman $4.20/1.80

And the big watch will be on Invincible Caviar in the R4 2yo event Gorg

For those not familiar,  the dam side of Invincible Caviar is none other than 'Black Caviar' whilst the sire is 'I am Invincible'

Thrashed a stablemate in a jump out and trained by Peter Moody

$7 for the win can be had and I've backed it for the prime reason that if it does win,  I was on it first time!  Don't want to miss out!

It’s $6 on Sportsbet, I’ll wait til tomorrow and get on it with the power play as well. 
Can’t fault the bloodlines that’s for sure.

The Laddies boost is $1 on anything $5 or more

Once hitting $11 the boost is $2 (or more)

But under $5 the boost is negligible ... 4.20 to 4.60 etc etc.  I used to be able to get a $1.50 boost on anything from 4.50 to 8.50 but they've downgraded me

(B☆¿$#%&'s!!)

So Invincible Caviar is showing $6 but you can get $7 with a boost.

Suits my value (or each-way) betting

I'm surprised it's not 4.00 or less (just for the hype)

Yeah I didn’t know it was running but agree thought the hype might have have had it at shorter odds

Got 18-1 the double ... race to race too which has a bit of tradition to it

The card up at Eagle Farm is very good but there isn't a race at Rosehill that appeals.  It's like a Wednesday meeting standard wise

Flemington looks half-decent with a few Vobis races.  Got a few value tips from James Jordan for Morphettville on Saturday ('Get On - S.A' on the racing channel)

I’ll be out sat arvo so I’ll prob stick to Flemington. Already got our bets on it so might go over the rest sat morning and plug them in before I leave. I do usually prefer to place the bets race by race especially if I can see them parade.

Invincible Caviar lead and got ran down in the last 50, far from disgraced and worth looking at over the next few races.

The Frankel filly (Argentia) was most impressive though Gorg.  A real blackbooker and will relish greater distances you'd imagine

Invincible Caviar got beaten by a good one

Had a return to form today ... got 4 wins and 3 x 2nds at Eagle Form doing my own form only.  Didn't even look at any of the tipsters choices.  Charleise, Nudge & Duais stood out and they all saluted! 

And in the end went with a few of Gators picks at Rosehill and got a couple of value winners there as well

Nice work!!! I stayed at Flem and I’m even. Nearly got a 4 leg multi but not quite.

Canasta is running in the last at Randwick, if it stays Heavy or worse it’s a very good show.

Will keep an eye out Gorg

Got a couple/few that you like in the Stradbroke? 

I've had a small wager using bonus bets on Apache Chase (carrying 49.5kgs) but Vega One & Wild Planet aren't carrying much weight either

Exotics could pay really well and I might box a Trifecta in the race

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 07 vs Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons once again open the round of football with their annual clash against Richmond on ANZAC Eve. The Tigers, coached by former Dees champion and Premiership assistant coach Adem Yze have a plethora of stars missing due to injury but beware the wounded Tiger. The Dees will have to be switched on tonight. A win will keep them in the hunt for the Top 4 whilst a loss could see them fall out of the 8 for the first time since 2020.

    OOZEE by The Oracle

    There’s a touch of irony in the fact that Adem Yze played his first game for Melbourne in Round 13, 1995 against the club he now coaches. For that game, he wore the number 44 guernsey and got six touches in a game the team won by 11 points.  The man whose first name was often misspelled, soon changed to the number 13 and it turned out lucky for him. He became a highly revered Demon with a record of 271 games during which his presence was acknowledged by the fans with the chant of “Oozee” wh
