  • 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.

If we can leave Bonar out of this and get someone of the type we need instead (or a suitable pick) it would be so much better.

GWS 1st rounder next year may well be in the late 20s after all the bidding is matched. We should think of the pick number rather than 1st or 2nd round I'd rather 3 for 6 + Caldwell or O'Halloran

Surely we have some sort of deal already worked out with GWS, otherwise what was the point of them moving down to pick 6.

Well played by the club. We get back a second round pick and move back to pick 10.

We weren't going to use pick 50. So essentially our trade with North becomes 2020 first round pick for pick 10.

We Lose: Pick 26, 2020 first round.

We Gain: Pick 10, Pick 28, 2020 fourth round

Pick 10 might be on the move again. Early-ish days, so don't take it as gospel yet though.

Geelong a possible deal partner now.

 

10 and 28 for 14 and 17 perhaps?

Gives is three first round picks.

Yeah you'd think that's what the deal would be should it happen.

If that is the scenario then I’d say Weightman would be a definite for one of those picks.

With us seemingly cooling on Young at pick 3 in favour of Jackson or Green, I wonder whether we would be targetting  Gould with pick 17. He would likely be gone by pick 28.

Your all over it Lord New. Do you think Weightman is a chance to get to 14?

Weightman is a VERY high chance to get to us. May depend if another club pulls the trigger earlier than us, but from what I've heard the club is dead keen on him.

Interestingly, they may be shifting towards Green over Jackson, then the ball will be in GWS' court. Doesn't seem like Young will be a Dee at this stage, but that's just opinion.

could happen.  Geelong must have a specific target in mind and we are keen on two players to go in the teens

Geelong apparently want McAsey a key defender and need to move up a bit to ensure getting  him.

Pick 3. Split? Do the Giants have anything to offer? 4 and 40. Crazy times!!!

That would have to mean our target is not Jackson or Green unless we got an understanding from GWS that they would not take Jackson at 3. I think we would want another pick in teens plus 4 given what it means to GWS.

    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,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
