  • 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. You really don’t get it do you. 

Delayed problems are common. I know this through personal experience

SWYL, I played and coached senior football for many years, I've had the injuries, I get it. What I don't get and think it's stupid, is you wanting to remember a players career over one incident. He most certainly is a star, that plays aggressively, would've loved to have had him last Friday night

Totally irrelevant on the quality and character of a player or past incidents. This could have serious implications for Andrews. I won’t give a second thought about Cameron when he retires.

I’m with WYL. He knew the damage he could inflict and he didn’t care. Rest of the season.

I'm not debating he shouldn't get weeks, I hope he gets his fair serve, however remembering a players whole career because of it? Forgive and move on, in time.

Both these guys will be going through pretty traumatic times at the moment, and some people would be able to personally relate and

have unhappy feelings to both situations, just saying..........

I think you stand alone on this one mate. 

As a baby i had a tiny bleed on the brain and have never been able to walk. 

Think yourself lucky. I hope Harris Andrews makes a full recovery, but if he doesn’t i will know exactly why. 

Jeremy Cameron is forever a thug

In time. Through acts of contrition and changed behaviour. He deserves what he is getting right now - that was horrendous and with an intent to hurt Andrews. But instead of a knee in his kidneys he chose an elbow to his head and put his future in danger. 

The last thing I care about is Cameron’s repu-effing-tation.

Poor Cameron he must be completely traumatised by that decision he made to launch a flying elbow in Andrew’s head, has anyone stopped to think about his elbow? I’ll bet he pleads not guilty.

This got Lockett 8 weeks in 1994:

Surely with tougher penalties now, Cameron will be out for similar.

Access all areas on afl website are talking 4-5 which seems way low for my mind.

Indeed way low!

8 weeks given to Plugger for breaking Caven’s nose and these guys are talking 4-5 weeks for Cameron after what he did?

Caustic, but there things we do that we regret.......

I think 8 to 10 weeks suspension is a fair penalty given precedents for similar  vicious elbows. Then we can all move on, but........The ongoing concern is will this have future ramifications for Harris Andrews?  Could take years to find out.

i have to say cameron's actions were reckless and dangerous but i don't think he intentionally elbowed andrews

lockett's elbow however was intentional and blatant and he was fully balanced with other options

ergo, cameron to get less than lockett on this basis (not that they will take a precedent from this era anyways)

Karma blessed Peter Caven after this. The following season Lockett was traded to the Swans. Caven was not too happy to be playing with Lockett and asked for a trade. He went to Adelaide and played in two premierships whilst Lockett never got one.

Charge was graded as intentional, with severe impact and high contact.   

Straight to tribunal.

He will be lucky to get only 6-7 weeks, the medical report will be damning..  It should be 10 or more but the sickos at AFL House will cut a few weeks off as he plays for GWS and they have to protect their plastic franchise.

God I hope GWS folds just to stick it to the AFL.

Amazing how much hate there is for the AFL.

It's like Sepp Blatter or that [gnashing teeth] Verbruggen (although plenty were prolly ok with him)

Sorry, I meant Dill. Geez First Dog on the Moon could do a ripper tear down of him, racking my brown for his animal character. What's a super dopey animal.

At the tribunal hearing. Umpire Pannell says he gave a free to Cameron for being pushed in the back by a Brisbane  player Darcy Gardiner before reversing it for the hit on Andrews. Alluding that Cameron was pushed into the collision perhaps? Looks like forces are working to go lightly on Cameron.

    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
