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.

  • Demonland changed the title to AFLW: 2022 Best & Fairest

Amazingly close count. 

Daisy is a star ️ 

Lauren Pearce had a great year as did Tayla Harris. I think Hanks was solid yet can keep on improving. 

Paxman, Birch and Mithen tied on 47, equal 5th and all three could have easily been higher up in the count.  

I think Birch was my player of the year.  Premier defender in the game (Steven May like) and was rewarded with All Australian honour.  
 

Big 23 awaits. Go Dees

Pearce & Pearce and Tayla & Tyla!

Quite an even count, represents the season fairly I think. We had different contributors across the season and also several games where there were several who could have made the votes. Amazing effort by Westy to make the leaderboard in her debut season and good to see Bannan and Goldie rewarded too. Of course, I'm a big fan of Heath getting recognition. Definitely a trademark player.

Congratulations to all the award winners. I'm amazed that Daisy won given her start to the year, but well done to her. I would have had her namesake as our best player across the season.

The move of Prespakis to Essendon fills me with dread. There are four new teams coming in, plus a few perennial under achievers, who have a lot of money and opportunity to throw around to established players. Hopefully players are allowed to sign longer term contracts once all 18 teams are up and running.

To those who attended - was there any hint that players might be considering offers to relocate, or was there a strong feeling that they are going to stick together and try again to win a premiership together?

Ive not seen much but from what I have seen Karen Paxman has dominated and knows how to play!

Congratulations to the winners.  Was a very even team performance and I'd say Daisy's consistency is probably what got her over the line.  She didn't play any poor games but had the one real standout v Freo and then was amongst the best half dozen or so in about 5 or 6 other games.  I liked Birch this year.  Thought she really stood out in a May/Lever kind of way.  Harris and Hanks were both excellent in patches and Lauren Pearce was consistently good.  When only three votes separate the top 7 players it's really luck of the draw.

    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
