  • 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.

Bendigo Race 9 Number 3 Corner Pocket $3.10 Win

 

So all 3 winning will produce a dividend of around about 115-1 (boosted) The good early odds on I Am Superman are no more ... into 6-1 now!

The place multi which is showing about 7-1 might be worth a go  ... or mix & match

Good luck punters!

Hitotsu is one hell of a horse!

And it can run in any sort of going ... too good!

But will it race on?  The Australian Derby win might be it's swansong.  The money on offer at stud will be enormous

I was on Benaud, thought it had it. Great fight back from Hitotsu.

Suppsedly Japan might be in the future, they even said Melbourne Cup

Hope so but the connections of these G1 winning colts are often quick to retire them to stud (as 3yo's) ... there's just too much money on offer

Hitotsu has now won the VRC Derby, Australian Derby & the Australian Guineas

That's a great feat! 

Fingers crossed they run the horse in the Spring at least (Melb Cup included) ... you'd be tempted to take the horse to Europe (especially Royal Ascot) or Japan

And Nature Strip wins its 3rd TJ Smith.  A true champion in the sprint stakes

Yeah it was in traffic and things opened up but just couldn’t get the burst. Shelby was the same in the other race, for once looked flat. 
Nature Strip ran the perfect race tho.

That is going to be one hell of a race, that field is exceptional 

Well, I've decided to go with class in a class race ... might pay off but as you said, it's a very strong field.  Think it Over is 40-1!!

But Anamoe's recent form in the heavy is very good as well so it's a real show

Might get better than 5-1 for Anamoe if the money comes for Duais & Zaaki (and Verry Elleegant)

Mate and I were thinking similar that outside the three you mentioned there and maybe Duais you might get some very good odds. 
 

If I was doing a quaddie I’d be ticking field.

Was just talking to a mate about the race ... worth $4Million and it's a stellar field.  Cox Plate-like

Horses like Dalasan, Montefilia, Think it Over & I'm Thunderstruck are all more than decent and can all get into the finish (given a good run)

Anyway, go the Demons tonight!

We should win

How the track is holding up could be a massive decided on this too.

    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

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
