  • 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.

Why don't you try supporting mate? Just 2 posts earlier you have had a go at Danners for not playing Petterd and you probably have said the same thing about Sylvia, then you say you reckon one of them will play. In tyhe Cam Bruce thread, you pick exactly that thread to point out that Cam isn't a champ in your eyes.

Get a life and stop whinging.

I agree 100% , Choko

Haha - I thought I was having a go at you! Hilarious. It's like my Brisbane supporter mate, who, when having an argument about the 2002 grand final against the Maggies, and the Coll supporters go "We was robbed! Rocca's was a goal", he just says "Yeh, straight through the middle!". That pretty much ends it there! But it doesn't get them the silverware!

Am I right in assuming that Miller will play CHB?

That would make it Carroll on Tarrant and Miller on Pavlich with Bizzell and Wheatley to support.

We need to start Jamar or PJ at FF to ensure McPharlin stays back.

No, Green must be at FF or else we have no chance!

Miller at CHB? Where did he play in last year's final against Freo? I seem to have ommitted the game from my memory..

Is Bizzell on Pavlich a completely lost cause? Or PJ on Pav?

I don't know. I'm completely lost. :wacko:

Miller played at CHF and played quite well in the prelim. Not sure what Danners has in mind for Sunday tho, as we are more undermanned this time. I would have thought we should do everything we can to keep our best possible forward line in place, including Miller, Green, Davey, Yze, with in and unders in the middle, including McD, Jones, Moloney (if he plays), Bruce, Godders. Maybe Bruce and Green rotating through the forward line.

And the club has said from the very outset what is going on with Col - they don't expect him to be avbailable until round 6. Anything earlier is a bonus, but they have said it all along.

When we played Freo at the 'G last year Miller played on Pavlich. At the risk of repeating myself (maybe earlier in this thread?), Miller did a pretty good job. Most of Pav's possessions were miles away from goal and out wide. White also did a good job in pushing back to crowd the lead straight up the ground, as did the rest of our players.

Correct Rogue.

Gouga has raised a good point. What will do if they pinch hit McPharlin forward.

FWIW, I hope they prove me wrong but Wheatley or Bizzell on Pav.....Please.

Don't be surprised to see Col line up on Sunday. Moloney is still apparently only 50/50 to get up for the game, and Col has not been named for Sandy yet is an emergency for the Dees.

Late change will be Moloney out and Sylvia in.

The thread I've referred to above makes interesting reading and highlights just how far we are off, and have been off, our best team. It also highlights how disappointing certain players have been so far this year.

But I've linked it because I argued that Clint Bizzell had a spot in our team. Clearly the selectors didn't agree because it has taken this level of injury and lack of form for him to get his chance.

Good luck Clint, have a great game and help us win our first game.

Don't get me wrong, I hope sylvia does play, however IF he was fit, wouldn't he already be named??

Dropping a 50/50 beamer for a 70/30 col is an interesting one.

I would rather see Col have one more in the magoos to confirm he is 100% then unleash him.

Fingers crosses beamer AND col play. That would be something!

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    THE MEANING OF FOOTY by Whispering Jack

    Throughout history various philosophers have grappled with the meaning of life. Aristotle, Aquinas, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer and a multitude of authors of diverse religious texts all tried. As society became more complex, the question became attached to specific endeavours in life even including sporting pursuits where such questions arose among our game’s commentariat as, “what is the meaning of football”? Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin must be tired of dealing with such a dilemma but,

    LEADERS OF THE PACK by The Oracle

    I was asked to write a preview of this week’s Round 8 match between Melbourne and Geelong. The two clubs have a history that goes right back to the time when the game was starting to become an organised sport but it’s the present that makes the task of previewing this contest so interesting. Both clubs recently reached the pinnacle of the competition winning premiership flags in 2021 and 2022 respectively, but before the start of this season, many good judges felt their time had passed - n
