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.

Is that Pedersen I spy in the circle in the photo on the MFC facebook page?

 

If that's the ocean in the background then that photo wasn't from today. 

If Pedo played today that is beyond [censored] stupid.

Jesus.  Why would they do that?  Social media 101 surely.

I thought it odd that not one of the reports thus far mentioned that he played - I'd have thought that to be a pretty key piece of information.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's from Williamstown. No way he played today. 

Personally I hope they roll with it now and post that photo every week until someone notices.

That photo is from the Round 1 game v Williamstown at Burbank Oval, they've used it a couple of times for different games just because it's a nice picture

I hope the selectors aren't considering JKH for QB. Although he played a very good game what what I can see he needs to put it together in consistent performances with high tackle and work rate being the highlight. Both were completely absent during his games with the seniors this year. 

He also tends to go to water with high pressure. Well done to him for this game though, keep it going and who knows....

They were wearing the white clash top this round which is even worse that the MFC white top. 

Maybe that's why they resisted using a photo from this game!

Thanks.  It's probably obvious to the locals, but I'm from Tassie and wouldn't know Burbank Oval from the Gabba.  Unless it's the MCG or Etihad, good chance I've never been near it...

A bit higher resolution and we'd be able to see your smoke signals in that photo, Nash.

mmm

they were wearing white today and that looks suspiciously like the ocean in the background.

Could this be alternative/false news

Yes - confirmed as just being a stock photo from earlier in the year.

Interesting point, but can't go with you on that one. Darcy's kicked a lot of goals. He's the full 200cm beanpole. Has been under pressure this year a lot, with no help, and is still looking good the last few weeks. Did enough last year to warrant them getting rid of Cloke. Weed's a ways off Darcy at the moment. That kid will be a star.

47 touches in any way shape or form is ridiculous. 8 tackles too. Seems like we had some sort of heavy handball game going maybe?

Incredible though. I do really like JKH. And I think Goody does too. I hope he comes good. There's others on the list I'd see delisted before him (though not many).

Theres definitely something to work with JKH, can see him being rookie listed if they want to delist him and make a spot on the main list.

Could be Jetta 2.0

No stats on the game ?

Without passing judgment on Kennedy-Harris either way, I take zero notice of a 47 disposal game in the VFL.

Why ask for stats on a game, then say you take 'zero notice' of a 47 stat disposal game?

Because there are stats and there are stats.  I'm interested in how many marks a young key forward is taking, who is kicking the goals, and how a player like Trengove is going.

That said, I'll fess up a little.

I'd be far more impressed if Trengove got 47, because I know how he uses it.  So to contradict myself I am probably making a veiled criticism of JKH even if I was at pains to suggest I wasn't.

Especially as it was against the bottom side who has yet to win a game.

28 hand balls! Were more than 10 to advantage?

    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
