Posting Unsubstantiated Rumours on this Website is Strictly Forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    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 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.

Bowey was good this week and has potential Rosman is completely lost with his positioning the coach has no idea where he should be played I would play him in defence  like CHB so he can run at the ball.

Exactly Rosman looked good when running at the footy.  I’d play him CHB and let him follow a target.

126 Dream Team points for Majak Daw defies the critics. Maybe he is better insurance than most pundits predicted? Maybe we could give Max a rest next week in the VFL and throw Majak in against his old team? ?

Leader journalist Paul Amy reports that former Casey listed brother of Bayley, Darcy Fritsch, booted 20 goals for Coldstream against Kilsyth in Div 4 of the Eastern league. He was on Casey’s VFL list in 2019 but didn’t play a game.

Just off topic dazzledavey, do you happen to know a bloke by the name of Shaun Campbell who played for Wagga in recent years.

I sure do. Absolute brute of a footballer. He played at Wagga last year and i went and watched 2 games (have a mate who plays there) and he absolutely ripped em to shreds.

Surprised he didn't have a crack at Ovens and Murray level considering the likes of Albury Tigers threw big cash at home.

Yeh. 

Cause dream team points are the only thing coaches look at when determining whether or not a player had a good game..

He is playing at Parkside in the Footscray District League where my son is footy manager, came with a reputation as a goal kicking midfielder, in his first two games I think he kicked 7 goals for the 2 games, on Saturday he kicked 10 goals 4 behinds playing straight midfield.

Not one bit surprised. Insanely good footballer.

Enjoy watching him put on a clinic every week.

Kicked 5 the week before. They had Bailey on the post game telecast, mainly to talk about that.

I'm not a coach, but I was there and he had a very good game.

FWIW.....

I'm not very good at describing what I see on the footy field, so apologies in advance...

Bedford looks the most likely at this point to take the next step. Didnt have as much of a stand out game as the last couple but his speed, aggressiveness and attack on the ball and opposition were still impressive.

Bowey was similar, but looked a bit timid early. Got into it more as the game progressed. Not as quick as I thought he'd be, but then the conditions were bad for a fair chunk of the game and not really condusive to hard running so I'll reserve judgement on that. Got a great kick on him though.

Smith is in everything. Quite a slight fella but it doesn't seem to bother him at all. He was often the one you'd see running around in support of team mates, mopping up the loose ball. Often got to it first when he probably had no right too.

Majak though, was very impressive. He's got a great vertical leap and tap, and to my eye, dominated the Richmond rucks, one of which was Chol. He took a couple of big pack marks in the forward line which definitely raised my eyebrows. Very handy acquisition

How was Toby Bedford Jake Bowey and Deakyn Smith.

3 players that really intrigued me.

Bedford had a down week. Made a few mistakes in the first quarter and missed a soda in front.

Bowey continues to show he has the pace and skill to make it but not yet the size.

Smith was serviceable but less prominent than the week before.

Casey are going to be very hard to beat this year.

    DEE-RUBBING by George on the Outer

    For the second week in a row, the Demons had to endure some particularly oppressive match conditions — this time, playing in 30 degree temperatures at the MCG, following the humid sticky Sydney atmosphere of last week.   The warmer conditions didn’t seem to worry the Dee’s since the ball was so much easier to handle, and handle it with surety they did in handing out a 45 point drubbing to the much fancied Western Bulldogs.   After a slow start that saw the Dogs out to

    CROSSING THE PICKETT LINE by The Oracle

    Melbourne’s performance in losing its Round Zero contest in Sydney has certainly caused the club, the coach and the players to come firmly under the watchful eye of the football world and exposed all of its aspects to a microscopic lens.   Much of the commentary surrounding them has been less than complimentary and, while some might argue that this is unfair after only one round, leaving aside some of the scuttlebutt that surrounds a lot of the discussion around the game, a fair amoun
