  • 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.

Foes the MFC or Casey teitter account disabled?

Absolutely poor coverage once again from our pathetic media team.

It’s a VFL practice match Dazzle. 

I wouldn’t expect too much.

Casey defeated Geelong 12-7-79 to 7-9-51

Carryover emergency : Hore

Goal scorers : 2 Stretch, T.Smith, Keilty, Gent 1 Preuss, Chandler, C.Wagner, Munro

TEAM

B: WHITE, HUTCHINS, TYNAN

HB: J.WAGNER, PETTY, MUNRO

C : BAKER, MAYNARD, MCCAFFERY

HF: C.WAGNER, T.SMITH, GENT

F: BEDFORD, KEILTY, CHANDLER

FOLL: PREUSS, STRETCH, SPARGO

IC: STOCKDALE, STEPHENSON, D.COLLIS, W.COLLIS, M.LEWIS, WALE-BUXTON, D.FRITSCH, GAHAN

 

SPARGO: Disappointing, slow start got into it a little bit but is a long way from a senior recall.

BEDFORD: Quiet done a few good defensive things finds it hard to find the ball.

STRETCH: Had a blinder he was everywhere and kicked 2 goals very close to senior selection.

MAYNARD: Nothing to write home about really a few good inside things but he isn't playing near his best like he did a few years ago.

PREUSS: Beat his opponent in Zac Smith but needs to do more around the ground.

BAKER: Just a game done a few good runs but that was about it.

PETTY: A class above Oscar should be in the side. Done everything right.

CHANDLER: A work in progress but showed some good signs.

T.SMITH: After a slow start worked into it Pretty well, missed a few shots but kicked 2.

C.WAGNER: Fantastic game but let's himself down by foot sometimes.

J.WAGNER: Really good second half a solid backman.

KEILTY: After a good start realitively quiet took some good marks.

McCaffery spent the second half on the bench not sure if injured.

Good to see Hutchins at full back as solid as ever don't play him forward again.

I'd rather wait and bring him in when he is smashing the door down, full of confidence.

A backline of May, Lever and Petty is so much more inspiring than with OMAC and Frost in there.

I think some context is required when discussing Petty.

He was playing in a VFL practice match, it's a massive step up to AFL.

I think Petty will absolutely become a permanent fixture of our backline in the future. He's 197cm, agile for a big man and from what I've seen reads the play well and has decent disposal.

But he is not ahead of OMac or Frost yet and should continue to develop at VFL level this season unless we have a ridiculous amount of injuries (fingers crossed).

FYI I'm looking forward to a back 6 next season of:

Jetta         May       Lever

Hibbo       Petty      Salem

Agree, especially when coupled with @WERRIDEE's well known 'love' for OMac and Frost.

I prefer Frost I still like his speed and could be a good match up on Rohan. Oscar gives us nothing.

Thanks to @WERRIDEE for scores and goalkickers. Assume the club might have some sort of bash at VFL coverage once the real stuff starts, but given that the last two weeks have been trial games for senior selection in all but the award of premiership points their commitment to telling people what's going on has been pox.

You can say that again DD.  Our backline would probably be the worst in the AFL right at this moment.

thanks Werridee!

So you would think Stretch will be looked at.  could he play the small fwd/crumber role we are desperately in need of??

    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

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,
