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.

If Smith isn't to come to us I'm not going to be overly devastated as long as we have someone else we're chasing to fill in that role, even if they aren't necessarily as good right now.

Smith will be the short term solution, I'd see us getting almost 2 top quality years from him and the third almost being a mentorship role.

Something frustrating about the cats being the ones to land him that would just make it a little more annoying, I hate losing to them in any way including them managing to entice a player over us.

How is it that Bombers know already they will get Pick 7 from the AFL, when no contract has been lodged with the AFL. The secret compensation formula and advice has obviously been used to help Bombers and Lions. Bombers get top pick and Lions get him free. AFL at its best.

Haven't done the maths, but does Isaac Smith going to Geelong bring their average age up or down?

Harmes?

Bit of a worry that a guy on a long term deal isn’t best 22.

As expected on the first day of the 2020 Free Agency Period saw plenty of activity -

* The first completed deal saw  Rory Atkins join the Suns as an unrestricted free agent. Atkins will sign a four-year deal with a trigger for a fifth at Gold Coast. The Crows will receive an end of second round pick for Atkins

* Hawthorn's triple premiership wingman Isaac Smith will join Geelong as a free agent The Hawks receive Round 3 compensation selection, currently 42. 

* Carlton lodging the paperwork for the Giants' Zac Williams. The transfer will be finalised within days.

* Richmond defender Oleg Markov has requested a trade away from the Tigers to the Suns.

* Giants' defender Aidan Corr has officially received an offer to join North Melbourne as a restricted free agent. The 26-year-old will return home to Victoria and sign a deal worth as long as five years. GWS will receive a second-round compensation pick.

* Mitch Cleary reports - "A lot of the Ben Brown meeting with Melbourne was centered around Darren Burgess and what he can do for his fitness". Essendon the only other suitor for Brown's signature.

* GWS Giants have confirmed Zac Langdon's decision to join West Coast

* Sam Edmund advocates that the Giants should take the risk on Jesse Hogan.

* Lots happening behind the scenes at Collingwood. There seems to be little hope of reconciliation between Adam Treloar and the Pies while Jaidyn Stephenson looks like playing elsewhere in 2021. 

* The AFL has received paperwork for Essendon’s Restricted Free Agent Joe Daniher to sign with the Brisbane Lions and is currently processing the details.

Late News - Bombers get National Draft Pick # 7 for Daniher. They should be doing cartwheels.

Scam. Three year deal is not worth first round compo.

Pretty accurate, but still a worry with a one dimensional midfield, need more outside run / flare. 
Hope MFC can deliver.

Lots of water to go under the bridge yet. Ben Brown, Phillips, Polec, Treloar,  Brodie Smith, Jack Higgins, Webster etc. Still too early for best 22's I'd suggest.

    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
