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.

Coffee truck is down here  again.

Just waiting for the players.

Watching the storm go through their paces, they're switched on!

Light duties include: Lever, Spargo, Viney and BBB.

Yesterday's players aren't on the track, Bedford is training as is Rosman, but not Chandler.

They are mainly in runners, and after some jogging around the hats they played a soccer game.

Moniz-wakefield and Tmac in rehab doing plenty of kicking. 

There is no strapping on Kossie knee.

You're an absolute champion Kev, thanks for all your work - already excited to read this.

Would love to know what part of the ground Bowey trains in today if we do any match sim or group training.

Then a full training midweek down at Casey.

Thanks Kev.  My understanding is they're flying up there Thirsday yes?  That would mean a full training run at Casey tomorrow?

That would be my guess as well.

If it was today then those from the VFL side couldn't go hard.

Next week, it could be anyone's guess given the bye, as to which days. Though assume the Monday run will be on.

Could also be a practice game on the following weekend. 

Hoping the club keeps us informed.

@kev martin how is the coffee truck performing?  Hit the spot?

Looked like it did, but not for me (I don't like something for nothing), nor did I get an invite.

Fridays was for supporters who sponsor the players. They also had a food truck and were served bagels/rolls with filling.

Mondays was for the executives, possibly from the New Balance company, the players and staff.

We trained at Casey yesterday going by photos on the club site. Main session I'm guessing and we usually hear from a Goody presser, but nothing. Will we have our Captain's run at the Gabba tomorrow after we fly out or before at Gosch's?

You know what I mean.

Free kicks are good if they are deserved, frustrating if inconsistent.

Worst are the soft ones when given near goal, for both teams. They can ruin the game.

Sorry Kev, I was making a silly joke - a play on words from that stupid dire straits song combiing your comment you don't like something for nothing  and radomly working in free kicks

As in 'money for nothing and your kicks for free'

Safe to say, quite a stretch.

But I agree with you about free kicks btw.

Given the context was about the coffee cart, I'm a bit disappointed you didn't include expresso love in your post somewhere.

    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.

Harrison Petty, JvR, Jack Billings, Kade Chandler, Kozzy, Bayley Fritsch, and coach Stafford.  The backs join them, Steven May, Jake Lever, Woey, Judd McVee, Blake Howes, Tom McDonald

    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
