  • 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.


Go and get Gaff!

Haha ? Satyr at his absolute best!

Gaff was probably the only player on the ground who played out 4 Quarters

 

Clown....

He clearly didn't watch the game.  He saw the Crows won and just made an assumption which, just recently, he criticised others for doing.

He wouldn't be better than Oliver. Different players but not close to Oliver in terms of impact. Gaff is a bit of a seagull.

Thank you, he is an accumulator, let's look at Redden and Shuey for impact or work rate

37 disposals, 7 score involvements, 7 tackles, 1 goal. Probably BOG again.

On 2018 form he'd be our best midfielder at present. If we can afford him, we'd be mental not to go hard for him. Exactly what we need!

Oh please, so you would say he is better than Oliver, have a lie down chap, you need it

He had 9 touches in the last term.  He was one of their only players not to go missing.  At least try and do a bit of research before you're wrong.  Again.

I was watching the game, but thank you, never been and never will be impressed by him, he is an accumulator, always has been, always will be, if we sign him, all well and good as the FD have a different opinion to me

9 disposals that did what?

Wrong, I was watching it, were you?

Every expert/commentator/pundit in the game has him in their All-Australian team. He's been in it before, he will be again. Some have him in Brownlow talk. Yet you think he won't make us better. You sir, are a goose

I've never rated him, there are others who think the same, unfortunately groupthink and FOBLO takes over, why anything becomes popular

Priddis was the same, how he won the Brownlow always staggered me

As for the AA team, how Nev Jetta hasn't been in it for last two years says it for me

I'd love for you to indicate to me one other person who knows anything about the game that doesn't rate him?

Group think has nothing to do with it. 

I was never a huge fan of Gaff’s before this season, but he has taken his game to another level, if you cannot acknowledge that, Your mind is seriously flawed..

He hasn't taken it to a new level, he just seems to have because West Coast were skiing downhill, last 3 games back to his accumulating best

Naughty, naughty, ET

I said to put someone on ignore if you don’t like their posts. No big deal, just over threads being derailed.

Gaff was very good tonight, some nice pace and carry out of a few packs. He and Oliver would work well together.

100% get Gaff. Victorian boy. Barracked for the Dees. Offer a big 5 year deal around $600k a year. 

Gaff is exactly the connect player we need. Does it both when the Eagles are flying but lifts when others struggle.  

 

You will need to be offering more than 600k to get him

$600k is not going to do it...

The cap is $12.8m next year. $600k is not big anymore.

It is an opinion, as I said FD may have completely different one, said if they sign him, not going to sulk, just not a fan

Yeah, yeah, we got it. Stop banging on about it.

Oh so finally I'm allowed an opinion

Will support him 100% if he becomes a Melbourne player, if he does, will look fwd to the first game he plays and the Game Day topic

What are you talking about? If you weren't allowed an opinion you would have been banned long ago and many of your posts deleted.

I reckon I've read the same post from you over and over again in the past 5+ pages.

You don't rate Gaff. Great. If you're going to post again, contribute something new or what's the point? (that's rhetorical)

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    TRAINING: Monday 29th April 2024

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the

    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.
