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.

Wow, what a change in 3yrs. Only TMac, Nathan Jones, Bernie Vince and Jack Watts from Roos' 1st game. That is a huge turnover of players.

Wow I knew there had been some big changes but only four played on Saturday from Roos team.

That says it all for me.

At the start of 2014 we had a VFL quality team now we have a good list.

Frawley is the only loss. He really did hurt the backline when he left, as much as I love Gus. 

Frawley, Rance, Talia or a defender of that ilk would complete our list

Wow. Roos must have thought he was being paid well to coach in the VFL. What a shocking team that was.

You are right $1.5 million is not a bad cop for coaching Casey seniors Mb38

Yes old Dee, we could happily retire or live in luxury for the rest of our single malt days.

An obscene amount of money. but such is the way in this degraded society. 

However, without Roos we would be nowhere.

His appointment was the essential foundation stone for the new footy department and the beginning of change.

Sure there have been a lot of other reasons, but Roos appointment was a watershed moment.

Just like Hogan's decision to remain at Melbourne, and, a little later, Jordyn Lewis coming across from the Hawks. Not only manifestly important but also symbolic of the change.

And hopefully Goodwin will reap the benefits by adding his mark.

With all those high draft picks we assembled a VFL side, including Gysberts, Morton and Cook. 

I actually feel some sympathy for Neeld. 

Regardless of his gameplan or methods, he had no chance in hell of success

Amazing difference.

So many questionable names in Roos' first game.

He mustn't have had much confidence going into that game.

And yet we probably should have won it. I reckon we would have had Tommy Mac not got injured.

I reckon we're one midfielder short too.

And of those in Roos team, I think I could only say that Tyson, Cross, Frawley and maybe Howe (as each was playing then) might make it into Goodwin's team.

 

I wonder, if you could put a team together of the players who didn't make it onto the field in Round 1 for Goodwin, would it still be competitive against the round 1 from 3 years ago?

F:          Kennedy-Harris      Hulett           Kent

HF:        Vandenberg        Pederson       Johnstone

C:          Bugg                Kennedy               Hibberd

HB:         Wagner            Garland            White

B:          Keilty                  Frost               Harmes

FOLL:    Spencer      Trengove      Tyson

Bench: Filipovic, McKenna, Maynard, T Smith

 

Geebus, it's not that far off.

While i agree with you it has to be noted the loss of frawley did bring in brayshaw.

While kpds are a hot topic at demonland atm I'm still happy with the above outcome

    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.
