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.


MOVING FORWARD by KC from Casey


Demonland

Recommended Posts

The Casey Demons moved another step closer to top spot on the ladder with a comprehensive 91-point victory over the Northern Blues at Casey Fields on Sunday.

The Demons won the toss, kicked with the advantage of the strong northerly breeze and used it to the utmost benefit as goal after goal flowed with regularity from Sam Weideman within the first minute. By the time the siren blared to end the first term, the home side almost nine goals in front. The Blues regrouped after the break and opened their account early in the second quarter but the Demons fought back and went almost goal for goal till the main break so that their opponent had barely made any inroads.

Casey piled on the goals in the early part of the third term but the Blues tightened their game midway through the quarter and played their best football to keep the Demon lead to 75 points at three quarter time. The home side maintained control despite kicking against the breeze in the final term adding four goals to one to run out 15 goal winners.

One of the highlights of the game from the perspective of the Casey Demons was the contribution of the VFL listed contingent. Former Kangaroo Corey Wagner was outstanding picking up 26 disposals, executing 10 tackles and booting 4 goals 3 to be clearly best on ground. Not far behind was former Tasmanian Jay Lockhart who hasn’t missed a beat playing all 15 games since coming to the club at the beginning of the year. He picked up 25 touches, eight tackles and kicked two goals. Lively Cory Machaya is in his third season at the club but this year, he is fit, healthy and firing. He played his best game yet against Northern Blues racking up 27 disposals along with his two goals. Former AFL-listed Demon Mitch White was in sublime form on comeback from injury, scoring three goals.

Casey was well served by veteran Cam Pedersen who picked up 24 possessions and marked everything that came his way when in defence and also chipped in with a goal. He had great support from Declan Keilty who was also excellent whether in attack or defence while

Sam Weideman also performed strongly with early goals and then exerting himself in the ruck when Mitch King went down with what appeared to be a knee injury. Tim Smith was also good chipping in to help out at the ruck contests.

Whilst not outstanding, Jayden Hunt did enough in his comeback game from injury to raise hopes of an imminent return to the Melbourne team with another week or two at this level. Oskar Baker was full of run until an injury in the third quarter ended his day and Mitch Hannan did well, particularly early in the day.

The team sits in second place to Richmond, with 11 wins on end and a game in hand over the Tigers who have a bye coming up in a fortnight. Casey is at home next Saturday to 11th placed Sandringham.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter. By the time they worked out it was game on, their opponents from Box Hill had accumulated five goals and, if the game wasn’t over, it might as well have been. For a se

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
