Absolutely shattering news.  The youngster must be feeling so down. Hope his teammates get around him and ex players like Schwartz reach out to him. 

 

Sloane? Not one of our players!

3 knee reco's I would think he might find it difficult to get back. Good luck

Absolutely devastated for the kid. 

  • Demonland changed the title to 3rd ACL for Aaron Nietschke

Horrible news. Seems his body wasn’t made for professional footy. He’ll struggle to make it back now you’d think. As horrible as it is, it’s not wise for a club to use a list spot for 4 years on a lateish draft pick who can’t get on the park.

Feel sad for the kid!

Try again Picket

That is truly a bitter pill for young Aaron to swallow, how devastated must he feel, he can't take a trick.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Awful news for him. 
 

The new list rules do provide some relief for all involved. We can replace him for this year, and next year we can possibly invite him to train with the group until he’s fully rehabbed and beyond. It’s too early for those decisions but we can do the right thing by him.

Sloane is a She  PF 

Your AFLW knowledge is a bit limited!

Sorry, but I have no interest in AFLW hence the lack of knowledge about our women personel. I hope she recovers well.

Sorry but with respect PF it's been Well publicised in photos and all over our website Plus D/L posts really pretty hard to ignore or miss.'

Really  bad Luck again  for Aaron Hope he can recover and play again. 
 

 

I'm absolutely gutted for the kid.  Nobody deserves that sort of luck. Bloody hard, but 'keep your head up' Aaron. 


very cruel bad luck, gotta feel for the guy

realistically it's probably the end of his afl career

Ok, it might well have been well docoed and all, but honestly I have iterated my postion and so lets leave it at that. I trust, however both players make speedy recoveries.

Sad news.

Have many/any players made it back from three ACLs like this? Morabito, maybe?

You'd have to think the odds aren't great.

Hopefully the club looks after him through 2021 and maybe considers giving him another shot in the 2021/22 off-season, if there is a spot available.

alex johnson of sydney and dan menzel both did to some extent


Not just 3 ACLs, but all in the pre-seasons of his first 3 seasons as a pro. Poor guy only got a chance to play a quarter of a scratch match in his time in the AFL, that’s awful luck.

Good luck to him, whether that’s another crack at it, or something else post playing footy.

Devastating for the bloke. He has gotta be thinking - is his body up to the rigors of AFL if he cant get through preseasons.

Good friend of Nathan Lyon

The curse continues... unfortunate for the young fella but a common occurrence over many decades at Demonland

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
