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.

Fair dinkum, its tiresome the posters who make a point of Weid not kicking enough goals as a key forward, next week some claim he's not doing enough despite being the leading goal scorer on the night

He may not be BOG every week, but he's improving and a better option than Tmac atm according to the match committee. I note that 2 match reports I read this morning had him amongst our best

Some people have to look for a negative amongst the positives

If he was drafted at 49 and called Sam Smith he would gone by now.

Agreed. He did the job of a fwd. Took the opportunities that presented themselves when everyone else was missing

can certainly take more marks and impose himself more But if we back him he will make it

Brownlows go to the best player in a team with very few or no other great players. Do you honestly believe Wines was better than Clarry, Trac, Bont and co last year? No, he only had a Boak competing with him for votes so every time they won he got 2 or 3. Clarry is competing with Trac, Gawn, May, Jackson, Langdon for votes. He gets three tonight but each of the others takes 3 off him all of the previous 5 rounds. The problem with the Brownlow is it’s the antithesis of good footy. It rewards one-man teams, whereas a strong, unselfish team(although we went away from that up front last night) takes votes off each other, splitting it so none of them win. It’s a dumb award. 

So wrong in so many respects! Please look at the facts. Of the last 25 medallists (back to Shane Woewodin in 2000), 13 (more than half) came from teams that finished premiers, runners-up or in the top three on the ladder. Hard to see how these teams all had "very few or no other great players" or were "one-man teams" as you argue. There are four medallists and premiership winners in the same year in this period - Akermanis, Black, Bartel and Ablett - geez, those Brisbane and Geelong teams were pretty ordinary teams, full of passengers who wouldn't take votes off the eventual medallists! Then there's Mitchell, Swan, Goodes, Cousins, Buckley and, oh look, Woewodin who were medallists in runner-up teams. All one-man teams apparently. And none of them can have been "strong, unselfish" teams. Facts will always trump fanciful speculation.

Brownlow isn’t and never has been the measure of best player. Clarrie is IMO unlikely to win one. We do have the best measure of value however - the coaches votes award. He won it last year by a street. Stays fit and he wins it this year too. Was thinking also last night about players like Cotchin, Selwood, Judd, Greg Williams. All of them have/had a snipey, eye-gougey, boot-studdy, wild elbowy side to them. Makes players like Clarrie even better. (think also Nathan Jones, Scott Pendlebury, Marcus Bontempelli). If pushed, I reckon his closest recent comparison was Dane Swan at his best - superficially unremarkable, but utterly exceptional. 

But Dane Swan won a Brownlow, somewhat diluting your argument! Clarrie will win it this year though, get on him, I already have.

Interesting manipulation of the facts there. The game changes so quickly all the players you list played over a decade ago, a different era for football and the award, in the last ten years only one premier has won the Brownlow, Dustin Martin in 2017, the one exception to the trend I argue 100% stacks up. Sam Mitchell shared the Brownlow in a GF losing side with Trent Cotchin who did not make finals, 3!made prelims, one elimination final and four more missed finals entirely, the clear majority. I would argue only three times in the past decade the Brownlow represented the best player in a great team, Martin, Dangerfield and Mitchell, 8.5 other times the best teams took votes off each other and a good/great player from a lowly side won it. Here’s the facts:

2021 Ollie Wines Prelim loss

2020 Lachie Neale prelim loss

2019 Nathan Fyfe Did not make finals 

2018 Tom Mitchell Elimination final loss

2017 Dustin Martin GF winner and Norm Smith medalist 

2016 Dangerfield Prelim final loss

2015 Nat Fyfe did not play finals

2014 Matt Priddis did not play finals

2013 Gary Ablett Jnr Did not play finals

2012 Sam Mitchell (GF loss) Trent Cotchin did not play finals

Next time you want to lecture someone on the facts try using relevant, recent stats not relics of a bygone football era.

I think this is spot on. As supporters we need to have an expectation that teams want to be incredibly defensive against us. If they don’t play that way they get sliced open like GWS last week.

We are far, far from an ugly team - but we are going to get in a lot of scraps this year because on paper it’s the only way teams can stay in games. Every press conference this year Goodwin talks about patience. He knows it, the players know it, and we just need to remember it.

Teams change the way they play to try and beat us

If they kick the ball high into their fwd 50 they will lose. So they try to maintain possession switch play, do short kicks and wait until their fwds get back to man up ur defence.

Our game has been built around springboarding from defence so when we get even numbers it is harder for us to play our game.

Last night we had 1 or two shots on goal from the corridor. Richmond forced us to go wide on most occasions. Our radar was off hence the high number of points

OD that's a comment that says more about your long history of negativity than it does about Weid. It also says much about your memory. He could have been "gone" by now and on a much larger contract. Is it possible you're living in a "twilight" zone and don't realise we are the reigning Premiers?

I certainly hope so. I’m not shouting the font changed when I quoted stats, sorry for that. Last year is the quintessential example of why it’s unlikely Clarry will win. MFC had an all time team record for Brownlow votes with 96;

Clayton Oliver - 31, Christian Petracca - 23
Max Gawn - 16, Tom McDonald - 8
Jake Lever - 5, Jack Viney - 3
Luke Jackson - 3, Bailey Fritsch - 3
Kysaiah Pickett - 2, Steven May - 1
Christian Salem - 1

Port had 91: 

Ollie Wines - 36, Travis Boak - 25
Karl Amon - 11, Aliir Aliir - 7
Dan Houston - 5, Charlie Dixon - 3
Connor Rozee - 1, Zak Butters - 1
Mitch Georgiades - 1, Robbie Gray - 1

Only two Port players got 3 votes for a game to take votes off Wines, that was Boak five times and Amon once. Every other time they won Wines got three, there was no competition for him. 

Melbourne on the other hand had multiple 3s for Trac (5), Gawn (3) Jackson(1). All taking votes off Oliver which cost him the award. They also got more twos and pushed Oliver down to one or none (Lever x2, McDonald x3, Gawn x2, Trac x3) Oliver and Trac were both better than Wines last year, as was Bont, they were all hurt by playing in deeper teams.
It’s still a great honour to win a Brownlow, Wines had a great season but the award is flawed in that it doesn’t represent the best players in the competition as effectively any time your teammates play well, you get punished, even if your overall performance was clearly leagues best.

If I had to guess, Rnds 1 Trac,  Rnd 2 Trac or Jackson gets 3, Rnd 3 Oliver gets 3, 4 Gawn gets 3, 5 Oliver or Trac, 6 Oliver. Oliver is going well but A Brayshaw, Cripps and Steele will top their teams votes in every game and would probably be beating him right now, only because he plays for a better, deeper team.

If you were at the game last night you'd have seen that Richmond dropped extra numbers behind the ball. As did GWS. As did Port. This is the approach of teams who don't think they can beat us. 

To be fair it’s also the way we defend and a result of our cautious ball use up field.

We pick our moments for fast play forward and rarely switch to the open side. 

Apart from better midfield kicking I think we aren’t blocking for each other well as a forward group, and we don’t crumb very well. I’d like to see one if Spargs and Koz get deeper rather than 2 or 3 talls together. And Weid, Brown, Fritsch work on a blocking routine

On the contrary, I think a lot of people on here are so desperate for him to become a good player they overlook the flaws in his game and only look at the positives, he was ok last night , that doesn't mean he can't be critiqued. We all want him to succeed, I always hope any player who gets selected has a good game.

Interesting comparing Richo's comments on Ch 7 to Nathan Buckley's on Fox.

Richo kept saying that Tigers needed to go fast whereas Buckley said they needed to go slow and send the ball into a four man contest where the ground ball players of Richmond could operate. Going fast just allowed the Melbourne defence to zone off and rebound

Both styles though allow a flooding of our forward line to a reasonable extent which means we need to take our marks (as we did last night) and convert

who cares about the brownlow? it's voted on by the umpires!

Yep the Brownlow is becoming less and less the medal to win. Bet you if you asked which Trac preferred Norm Smith or Brownlow he’d take Norm Smith every time (and then hide it behind his premiership medal!).

None of the above I am just making a comment about his ability and the better ride that early draft picks get over later ones.

Ahh..you mean someone like Mitch Brown.

Mitch brown was given the push from Essendon as they judge him NQR. IMO the Weid is NQR.

If he was a higher draft pick the same would have happened by now.

I canned Spargo, in a similar time frame he has proved me wrong.

When will the Weid?

You make a fair point.

Perhaps if we hadn't recruited Bbb then Weid may have played more games and be a better player.

That aside, I think if he doesn't cement a spot this year and continue to be consistent then he may not be around next season.

I hope he proves me wrong.

I was thinking just that last night - if eg Weed and Brown lead to opposite pockets and Fritter stayed home, in rotations and combinations of this, then surely defenders could not double team more than one of them.   

Maybe Goody is keeping this up his sleeve for September?

It is a very good point Mono. It would also add diversity to our 'straighter' goal shooting; that diversity might also lead to opposition backs separating, attempting to cover whilst not being in a situation where prediction helps their cause to spoil Demon forwards.

It makes better use of our smaller fleet and their skills, not just potential big fellas marking the ball prior to a set shot.

In the last Richmond persisted with a spare player back all but ruling out a chance at victory. Their chaos game was no where to be seen

They are now a fading team that knows they cannot beat the top teams without Dusty so they try to counter the other teams tactics in the hope that will get them home.

But the game was never in doubt bar the very first 10 minutes. I did yell at the TV a couple of times but never at the umpire.  Stop reading that rubbish.

cheers mate,

Not likely to read Ray Shaw's life Rob. What I do have to read is Chadwick - a man of many parts. Saving it for my hospital trip soon.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
