  • 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.

I reckon I might have a crack at the Feb game. I only just joined here but I've been at BF for about 4 years. What's the usual age spread?

Welcome aboard.

The photo at the start of this thread ought to give you some idea of the age spread.

FWIW we were quite a bit younger than Saintsational.

Yeah youngest there looked mid teens perhaps even younger. I ain't a great judge of age. I'm 17 btw and an alright defender/winger. Strengths: spoiling, keeping eye on the ball when goin for the mark (can hurt sometimes) and being able to make up excuses for when my opponent scores a goal.

Injury update:

While all the aches and pains have gone away... I broke a couple of ribs in the last quarter. Doc says a month before they'll fully heal.

Just can't avoid some sort of injury!

And to think, some suggested yours were 'soft' Yze-like goals. You're a modern day Dermie Hards.

I don't recall anyone making heavy contact with you, is it possible you didn't just over expand the old chest cavity with pride? :rolleyes: Do you know when it happened?

On a serious not, I hope you recover quickly mate, and well done on finishing the game off so well under the circumstances.

Bad luck mate...

I've broken ribs running back with the flight of the ball and getting taken out by a big fat FF in a VAFA ressies game... was not very pleasant. i knew when i'd coughed a bit of blood up that it wasnt a good sign...

Seriously though, breaking ribs in an inter-forum friendly game is some serious bad luck...

all the best in ur recovery..

cheers

I only got hit twice for the whole game!

It happened in the last quarter, right infront of our "bench" (or where our bench would have been). I danced around this guy and he came back and got me as I got rid of the ball. It wasn't a hard hit or a dirty hit or anything, it just copped me in a bad spot and with the point of the shoulder.

It's really not too bad, as long as I don't sneeze or cough or laugh too much.

Technically the goals came before the injury, but for the sake of the story that might have to get switched around - make it a real Dermie like comeback :D

Cheers boys.

Thanks for the good wrap on my performance Rollo. Hopefully I can come out next time and kick a few more. I'll make sure the entourage come along too so they can take some more action packed snaps. :)

Which one of the guys in the photo are you mate?

Don't even mention the sunburn! I got a double dose, thanks to playing Corporate Games all day Sat then got baked again on Sunday!

Haha, im the red head, about the 3rd from the left at the back and my shoulders are STILL burnt over a week on! Peeling like crazy! Great game though

lol, maybe you should just handball instead :D ?

Hahaha... It's an option I'm seriously considering, believe me. I'm just hoping to win a bit of footy in the 3 minutes before I get dragged, so that I might stand a chance of getting out there again at some stage :lol:

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    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

    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
