  • 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.

Unless we lose one of JVR or Petty, I can't see us going big on any opposition KPF.

Well, I dont rate either of JVR or Petty that highly, so I would make JUH a massive offer he could not refuse

Doggies need picks to rejuvenate their list. They need defenders and Naughton ain’t going. Darcy will play Forward and they’ll sign English. 

Dogs definitely need to improve their defence. In a perfect world JUH traded for Petty and something would be good for both clubs.

Shame it won't happen

I would love any of Smith, Jamara, Weightman, or Richard's. Either way I'd love to pick the eyes out of this falling team.

With the form Naughton is in, there is no way JUH leaves. 

 

More chance of Naughton being traded to WC for cap space then JUH walking to us on a decent deal.

Media reports about possible smoke around the Bont. 

As captain was part of their review - obviously thing's not working.... might be able to pry out if things don't improve.

Go and get the Bont!

It is a good idea, D_J; suits the Dogs defensively, heals the MFC forward line (and most probably encourages the kickless to be far more mobile with an attacking forward like JUH onboard). If only it could happen!

They will sack Bevo before they let the Bont walk out. Take that to the bank.

Mostly because I am sadistic and enjoy watching other clubs implode

But secondly - if it frees up a bont, a marra, a Riley sanders.... and we can get our hands on one happy days

I’m with you to an extent. Makes for a great thread on a ladder of which team you hate most ordered from 1 (most hated) to 17 (least). Doggies are not in my top 8 at all.

Surely they’d sack everyone from the president to the boot-studder before losing Bont..?

The Bont is a shining example of a footballer and how the game should be played.

Hard to envisage a trade scenario that would be worth their while.

Stranger things have happened. After all, Ryan Griffen left as Dogs captain to join GWS.

I always think that no individual is bigger than the club; but the Bont is definitely an exception to that rule.

Him leaving the Dogs would be the equivalent of Max leaving the Dees.

Off topic question. What's Max King's contract situation? The Saints look like a perennial middle of the road team, perhaps we can persuade him to come here?

    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

    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
