    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.

Loved hearing and chanting that on  game day.

Could be i'm losing my hearing slowly but appears to have dropped away as a chant of late for some reason.

On the contrary! We have a young guy in the DA who leads that chant every time Kozzy kicks a goal. Everyone in our bay joins in. This kid idolises Kozzy and always has, so this morning I messaged him asking if his vocal cords are primed for another four years. He kept it cool just replying “Yep” but I know he’s probs still cartwheeling around his house. 😂

Yeah. He does the “KOZZY KOZZY KOZZY bit and we do the “OI OI OI” bit. It’s his thing. Nobody would ever take that away from him. He’s so proud to lead it. This weekend it will be extra special. 🥰

edit: after last year’s Alice match, poor fellah couldn’t speak for a couple of days. 😂

I wasn’t on DL at the time but I’m pretty sure the Jack Watts thread wouldn’t have had a happy ending. 

I think you’ll find that getting Fritta with the pick we got from Watts has made it indeed a very happy ending.

When Jeff Farmer left the Dees it honestly felt like someone had gutted me. He was the teams excitement machine, a key reason to attend the football, the wizard.  I was dreading something similar with Kozzy. How could we possibly lose another player who was so exciting with that air of magic and anticipation?

His signing goes a long way to filling that hole. I can’t wait to see what he produces over the next four plus years ahead. Thanks Kozzy.

And if you have any trouble finalising the transaction(*), call Membership direct. They did it simple n quick.

(*I had a 'still processing' message 2 hours after submitting)

p.s. I hope Kozzy is getting an out-of-cap cut!

Jackson on the other hand kept us in limbo, underperformed in the process

I don't buy this.

I've seen it posted a lot.

If he underperformed last year because he knew he was out then there would have been a major bump in his performance this year.

There hasn't been.

If anything his game has dropped off this year.

Love Kozzie, love he's re-signed. I love watching our Indigenous players, all of them, from any team. Some of what I see is magic.

 

By the way, does anyone know how Neville Jetta is travelling with the E Coli Wobblers? I would have loved for him to stay with us in some capacity.

Doesn’t help that he’s playing for a dumpster fire of a team in the wrong position tho. 
Was not the case last year.

"After almost 22 years, Pickett has spent less than 1% of his life sure that he will re-sign with the Demons."

"After almost 9 months pre-natal, Pickett has begun being born in only the last 24 hours."

Meanwhile, if the relief of the decision being made produced a 3 goal & 3 goal assist game, we need to consider the possible AA competition for relaxed and comfortable Pickett in the 'actual small forward' role;

Papley, Green, C Cameron, Rankine, Higgins, and... Chandler!

It survived on the night of the 25th of September 2021, I think it’d survive anything! Which is great since it may cop a hiding come the 30th of September this year!!!!

Nice one.

You may be closer to the truth than it might seem.

I reckon lessons from last year have been learned and the team will motor along nicely , some losses being inevitable, but commentators around mid- late August will be remarking about the Dees being the team you don't want to meet in Week 1 of the finals.

    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
