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.


Farewell Jesse Hogan

Look, nothing against Binman but I thought his post was rubbish and a waste of my time. 

And you Sue keep recycling wrong opinions.

 It's clear you thought his post was a waste of your time since it is apparent you didn't bother to understand it before responding to it.  (I'm generously assuming you read it.)  Sorry, I won't keep recycling my 'wrong' opinions because I'm tired of pointing out your self-contradictions and misreading of other people's posts.  So no more. Exit the Dragon.

i'm guessing the deals essentially hinge on beams trade happening

my guesses are:
- beams and 2018 third round pick to pies for 2018 first rounder (currently pick 18) and future first 
- 5 and pick 18 from bears to freo for neale
- 5 and pick 23 to melbourne for hogan
- 5 to crows for 8 and 13
- 8 and future third to gc17 for may and kk
- may and kk for pick 5, future 3rd rounder

net results:
- pies get beams and the filth's 2018 third rounder
- bears get neale and pies' future first
- freo get hogan, pick 18
- crows get pick 5
- gc17 get 8 and mfc's future third 
- melbourne get may, kk, pick 13 and pick 23

If they get 5 & 18 for Neale I expect the same for Hogan

Please Binman. Stop living in fantasyland. You think Watson brought Bennell up because of injury issues? Any player can get injured at anytime.

And ‘motivation’? Nothing except he’s a sports commentator and journalist making an assessment of a situation based on information he has at hand.

What, you think his ‘motivation’ is to tear down the Melbourne Football Club? Bit paranoid there mate.

Huh? You need to express yourself  a bit more clearly.

Do you actually mean Watson is suggesting off field behavioral issues? If so then your post did not convey that message. You used the word reason which implies motivation.

Fantasy land? I have no opinion about why Watson raised it. I could care less. If I was to guess it would because he is paid to gossip and create noise. 

You might want to consider settling down and stop throwing insults around.

That and learn to convey simple messages. Start slow.

Bennell was always a risk, injury issues and his other issues were pretty public, even one of his family said it would be a mistake for him to return to WA. Nothing comparable to Jesse. Just crap from Watson.

These “off field issues” accusations seem like a crock to me. In his time at the club we’ve seen no public signs of any off field issues affecting his performance or training habits. Outside of injury he’s been a consistent performer. 

It seems to be a concerted effort to suggest where there’s smoke there’s fire. Literally. We all remember smoking-gate. People losing their collective minds over Hogan smoking a cigarette at a music festival. After his father had recently passed away.

A Fremantle muppet on Bigfooty suggested there were links on social media to Hogan “twitching his face off”. The link he provided was the daily mail article which showed Hogan at that same music festival merely dancing and having a good time.

It always seems to be mountain out of molehill stuff and it’s no surprise it is currently being driven by media voices in the West, along with flogs like Watson who can’t seem to get past his distaste for Melbourne.

Yet here you are engaged in a debate about it ?

Again with the comprehension issues. I am not debating why Watson said what he said. As stated in your quote I could care less. Wher's the debate?

I was simply calling you out. Anyway it's been fun. I'll pop you on ignore now. Will cut this thread in half, which will be a blessed relief.

As Ethan says, "It’s beginning to look that way. I wish people would quit quoting him." 

But Ethan nothing is happening, we are bored enough to entertain biscuit comparisons and idiots. What can we do?

Why are Demonlanders continuing to feed the troll.

Staggers me

I’m a “troll” because I don’t trundle with lemmings off a cliff or say “baaa” with the herd?

Demonland hasn’t changed much. A few very good and sane posters but still too many fanboys (and girls) who get hurt derrières when confronted with sober assessments and clear eyed analysis.

That means you do care, at least a little.

    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
