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.

Is our game likely to be televised ?

Here's hoping! Certainly need to make at least a couple of changes this week.

I think it's likely that a significant number of possible VFL players will need to travel with the squad to play GC and then on to Perth for quarantine ahead of West Coast.  I expect they'll take at least 26 or 28 with coverage in all areas so the team vs Footscray will be depleted.

This game will provide a lot more opportunities for the Casey boys as we will need to take additional players up to QLD as mentioned by earlier posters. Will be good to see how they perform, also hopefully inspires others on the list to greater heights heading into the finals.

9 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

8 - same as most other 'vfl' clubs, although others have played 9

the northern sides all have played more - southport, gc17, bears, swans, aspley all 10 (as well as the peptides), then gw$ 11

What a basket case of a league. As I have iterated, next year revert back to AFL Reserves competion, none of this Aspley, Southport and others rubbish. How on earth will they decide finalists?

The coaches and football bosses need to start putting pressure on the AFL about this debacle of a competition - the inability of the clubs to get decent match practice into their fringe players has surely got to be concerning them. 

As a player I would hate to be coming out of contract having played 8 games in a season spread across five months.

^^ picket and poita - agree 100%

Especially with the ongoing threat of lockdowns that undoubtedly will go  forward into 2022 and beyond, just set up an AFL Reserves competition with all Victorian teams involved.

The interstate clubs can set up their own local competition.

As it stands it is a total dogs' dinner, benefiting nobody.

Hopefully once everyone is vaccinated there won’t be any need for lock downs.!!!!!

Of course the irony is that the VFL didn't start until Round 3 of the AFL season

We have all said this before DJ but it must be the worst planned/ run competition in the land.

Do you actually believe that?

Fauci is now, having said that widespread vaccination would mean no masks, saying that masks indoors and out may "be needed" indefinitely, for all even primary school kids.

This pandemic has seen a litany of mixed massages.

    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
