  • 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.

yes Sue i think you are correct. Different skillset perhaps

I can't understand the rules of farnarkling, but then again, recently I have found the umpires and AFL don't seem to understand the rules of AFL either.

I don’t think he would look at the Dees. Why would he??? He’s from WA so immediately he’d be looking at Eagles or Freo.  

The article stated that, if he looked to move on, it is at a Melbourne based club:

Narkle, 22, is out of contract and understood to be open to a move if it eventuates, preferably to a Melbourne-based club.

Thanks WB. I’d be highly surprised if he ended up at the Dees. Might be on the Bombers radar. They seem to be into anyone looking likely of a move. Except Daniher of course. 

Narkle is nit looking for a team necessarily in the Top 5 premiership window as he is still starting his career.

I can't stand the "Why would he pick Melb (Us)" disdain as if the Club  has Covid virus in the forward line and Ebola  virus down back.

As pointed out he would look for a Melb based Club and the deal is the most important thing plus the opportunity foryoung players. He can see what Langdon has done !

This  continual putting down if our Club is not only tiresome but depressing and is generally a rash generalisation without thought or facts.

Narkle is  just the sort of youngster who has pace and flair to suit our outside running needs for 2021 and beyond.

660 posts and you’re a troll already. I don’t put down the club. I don’t think Narkle would choose us.  It’s my opinion. Get on board with the spirit of the forum which allows supporters to express opinions without this type of irrational response to one opinion.  GAL.

Sorry Smithy but your complete ruling out of the possibility without reason or knowledge or fact blandly dismissing any hope for consideration or the fact that that Club May wish to recruit him shows no thought whatsoever.

Indeed your first remark about you thinking he would be Wanting to be going back to WA Was a wild stab And  as ambit as nearly all WA fans think every Player that heads east wants to return as soon as their 2 year recruit contract finishes.

Getting  with the spirit in this post is not in my opinion what D/L is about in  fact it is as you say a diversity opportunity and as such I have Expressed my opinion fairly and reasonably and positively putting fat more accuracy in this topic than your rash predictionwhich is incorrect in the first place and a wild guess in the second.

Yes you can state your opinion but if wrong and really Doesn't  she'd anY accuracy on the subject it Behoves me to point out the true facts and also place a more positive spin on our aClub in the process.

Thxnk you for deciphering me as a troll they 600 odd posts is about 100 a year ie 2 a week really hardly trolling figures of any note.!!!

Troll is to denegrate others for an opinion. That was your style. It had nothing to do with any facts and you had no facts. I’m stating imo I think other Melbourne clubs might be his intention or even still going home as happens each year every year. GAL

Absolutely worth the look. Low risk. 

The Cat's cut him pretty quickly.  I would be worried as to why.  They don't suffer fools gladly down there.  Would need to do some serious homework / background checks first imv.

Think I might have mixed him up with Parfitt for some reason. Narkle does seem to break down a bit so would need to do the checks, does have some good toe though.

  • Demonland changed the title to The Quinton Narkle Thread

i don't see why he wouldn't pick us

he's an outside player looking for a new team; we're crying out for his type, and he would get plenty of opportunities with us

i can't actually seeing him being worth much - he seems to be constantly breaking down and when fit is unable to force his way into geelong's 22

third / fourth rounder? geelong hardly need the picks tho

narkle and one of their first round picks for viney, when we match whatever they're offering him and 'force' the trade?

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations.

He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the
