  • 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.

Although it is probably a sign of inabilty to create a sturdy defence. Nicholson would be closer to our best side of the past 15 years then our worst.

Vardy, Charles and Holland also unfairly named here

From memory 'P.PRYMKE' had a bad back that crippled his career.

Agreed. I'd put Ellis in there instead of Nicho.

Brent Grgic called, he wants to know where the love is.

Oooooh Mercy!

Yep. Dutchy to emergency or out altogether, replaced by Grgic.

Vardy UTTERLY doesn't deserve to be there. Gave good service while healthy. If Vardy's there, Byron's headed for this team. Others are ok. Maybe Charles can be reprieved. Oh, and no Moland or Rogers? Or are we doing only players who played?

And Tooly? Great thread that has come at the best time. I've been severely let down by demonland's form of late, and you've come up with the goods. Classic.

Whoever wrote this is an fool & I don't know why some people get their kicks out of humiliating past players. Also you can't spell.

Shanahan was a top notch full back & had a great first year but then played one year too many. Holland has been a very handy footballer. Norrish was a handy player who won a B&F at Freo. Charles was a brilliant talent but was hampered by injuries & a poor attitude. Vardy was outstanding when fit. Prymke held down CHB for 2 years before being injured. Doyle & Irving were both reasonable players & Newton had his career wrecked by injury.

Fair dinkum do you actually ever go to a game because you really have no idea.

HB: S Febey, Rivers, Woewodin

C: Johnstone, Viney, Tingay

HF: Farmer, Schwarz, Yze

F: Lyon, Neitz, Robertson

FOLL: Stynes, Leoncelli, Rigoni

that forward line is arousing! i miss ingo

I'd have mclean ahead of white! Even though he hasn't been there long. In about 5 years he will be captain of this topic!

But good idea putting the good ones!

Pretty good side.

ANthony or james mcdonald?

When did Ingerson ever play full back?

How can you leave Brett Lovett on the I/C . thats a disgrace. Robbo - I'd replace but I'm not sure who with.

the rest is fantastic. Well Done!

    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

    PODCAST: Kade Chandler Interview

    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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin was on hand at Gosch's Paddock for Monday's training session and made the following observations. About 38 to 40  players down at training.  BBB walking laps.  Charlie Spargo still in rehab, doing short run throughs.  Christian Salem has full kit on and doing individual work with a trainer. He is is starting to get into some sprints. I cannot see Andy Moniz-Wakefield out there. Jack Viney and Kade Chandler have broken away from the
