    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.

Went along today and all I'll say is that as disappointing a loss as today was for Casey, it was as equally an impressive win for Richmond. Winning at Casey Fields is not easy, and they ran and spread

Of interest (to me, anyway):

-  Ben Brown named so fit to play, but not selected in the Melbourne team

-  Kyah Farris-White selected to play against men after running around in the under 18 comp.

-  Woey back but no sign of Turner (K.) or Smith (J.)

-  Jimmy Munro still injured

Which is the Smith in the right back pocket?

Might be looking to get a fair chunk of real game time into him and see how his back pulls up for the following week?

Get a bit of touch/form as well before returning.

Pretty sure the FD will want him back in ASAP subject to fitness / reasonable form.

No.1 for goal averages so far

No. 6 for score involvements &

No. 3 for inside 50 ground ball gets (a smidgen behind Clarry & Tracc who are equal 1st)

I can't believe Brown is in the 2's should be in the seniors.

Yep...the only reason i can think of is they want to see how his back holds up in real match conditions as there's still a slim question mark

Otherwise he should be straight in.

This might be partly Goody though as if you recall his pressors he keeps mentioning "zero risk" on player fitness.

Surely if he can play Casey he can play seniors?

Is there a point when you become so  risk averse however, that it ends up biting you in the behind and costing the team instead?

I think it's more management.

If he plays Monday night then he only has a 5 day break especially coming back from a back injury.

I think they also want to see whether his body can hold up after a match.

Guessing that no.62 is Cooper Simpson, the young Stingrays mid that trained with us as part of the Academy program.

Keen to see how he goes, looks a good prospect in that 15-20 range at this stage.

Edit: Just saw the '23 draft prospects page which confirms all of the above via a Cal Twomey tweet from 4 hours ago!

This could rival 186, a shellacking is in order

Ross and Dow are the only Richmond players with senior experience and Bauer, Banks and Green the only other listed players vs 9 and 8 in those categories for Casey.

“Talented draft prospect Cooper Simpson will play for Casey Demons' VFL side on Sunday. The midfielder won the Dandenong Stingrays' best and fairest last year as a bottom-ager and featured for the AFL Academy last week. 

Zane Duursma set to play for Casey next week at VFL level.”

The three players coming back into the Melbourne team from injuries this week (Gawn, Hibberd and Lever) are all mature age players. The selectors might have wanted to maintain a balance of youth and experience especially given that sometimes the older players take time getting back to top form.

    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

    I'm interviewing Melbourne Football Club's small forward Kade Chandler tomorrow for the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about his road from being overlooked in the draft to his rookie listing to his apprenticeship as a sub to VFL premiership to his breakout 2023 season to mainstay in the Forwadline and much more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast at some time tomorrow so stay tuned.
