    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.


2021 List and Contract Details

Updated for Petty and Fritsch contracts.

Petty will be an RFA and Fritsch will be an FA at the end of their respective contracts.

We have an incredibly stable list with probably only 3 'unforced' delistings:  Hore, Declase, Lockhart.  Very different form recent years of 10-12 each year.

A list that has just one a premiership and will stay together for the next 5+ years.

Not sure how I ended up with two posts.

I tried to edit the first and it disappeared 🤔.

So will leave both.  The table is the same, text slightly different.

I usually update games annually after the draft, when I create the new list for the following year. 

So look for the 2022 thread late next week.

i hope you decide to add a gold "(1)" after relevant players' names to indicate how many premierships they've won.

@La Dee-vina ComediaI tried putting a '1' but it got a little lost amongst all the other data.  So have put in a image.png.6fb4f6a0bd541d9bbfd5439f4446a84f.png instead.  Will add more Premiership Cups as they come 🙃🙂🙃.  

Here is a preview of the 2022 chart with games played.  If anyone sees any errors please let me know.

image.png.e173ac1e2cf44fc8995b6c1daa7679e9.png

 

In updating the no of games I noticed that:

  • Viney played his 150th game in the GF.  I knew it at the time but the didn't appreciate the significance.  Doubt many players in AFL history have achieved such a significant milestone in a winning GF.
  • Jordon is accredited with 25 games.  He took the field either as a player or a sub in 21 of those games.  To me that makes him a worthy recipient of a GF medal as he played a key role in helping us get there.  Moreso than any other player.

I will update the draftees and list size after the draft.

Is Pickett's surname actually Kropinyeri-Pickett as described in Luci's List? And if so, would that mean he has the longest surname of all players who have won a Premiership in VFL/AFL history?

If that is so has the MFC created another first in a premiership team where 2 players have hypenated surnames.

I believe so. The full hyphenated name was read out on draft night.

Thanks.

So we currently have picks 17, 37, 49, 57 and 94.

I would predict that we will use 17, 37 at the draft with 57 being more than enough to match for Taj. That leaves one list spot for a SSP addition.

We should be able to leverage something out of pick 49, which should come into the low 40's by the time all the pies and Bulldogs picks get absorbed in their f/s selections.

That will be pretty valuable to a few clubs, including those that need more points for NGAs and f/s or maybe just want another selection all together. StKilda, GWS as well as Pies and Dogs are just a few clubs that might be interested in it.

I'm not sure it will be enough to seriously upgrade pick 17 but we could perhaps get an upgrade to 37 or perhaps a future pick or two for next year.

in that case we should try and bundle up 37 and 40 to get a single better pick

are we expecting Chandler to be upgraded given 2 year contract?  if so I suspect we pick up 3 at draft tomorrow including Taj, upgrade Chandler and JJ and leave 1 rookie spot open for AMW.

Did another post suggest AMW would be Cat B? which leave a further Rookie spot open

Chandler is not on the club's list of rookies to be upgraded submitted to the AFL.

If AMW isn't bid on by another team in the main draft we can automatically take him as a B rookie.

Hello LH. Just wondering whether you've done an updated list for 2022 including draftees/rookies? I couldn't find anything using the search function.

Certainly have.  2022 thread is here

 

and it is pinned near the top of this forum.

 

Edit:  not sure why the lines appear in black above but fully legible in the thread itself.

    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,
