  • 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.

Shane not playing last quarter. Running around the boundary warming down. Not injured. Big smile on his dial. I’m no expert but I think they’ve seen enough and he’ll be DEBUTING NEXT WEEK!!! 🥳

You'd think with Ben Brown out of the AFL you'd give him a proper rest and let Jefferson try and own the forward 50, instead its the land of the lanky talls with Schache, Brown and Jefferson all runni

McAdam grinding off the rust has something of the magician about him. Get him in ASAP.

The stats don’t show that great mark from Jeffo. Think he’ll be much better when a player like Schache isn’t in the side. Sounds silly but Jeffo doesn’t get a lot of space when Brown - Schache and one of Fullarton/Verrall sit down there too. Not ideal for his development.

Casey have been very poor in terms of their defensive structure, letting several goals over the back. 

Hore is a bit dopey.

McAdam looks a very good forward and obviously AFL level talent.

Jefferson is too slow in both body and mind to play AFL.

Seston looks like a good VFL player now with a high level of balance and skill. I am not sure he will ever get the fitness to play AFL but there is a lot to like.

Fullerton has picked up a lot of possessions but does not scream AFL talent.

Brown has done little.

Hunter is still good enough.

Only sneaking views of the game during work, but so far  I've seen three impressive overhead grabs from McAdam. I think we'll see him in the 1s very soon.

Only watched the last half of that quarter but Casey seemed well on top all over the ground, and McAdam yes please if he can follow up with a good second half.

It is hard to find a stand out. Game by Casey is either chip it around or play through congestion often with a turnover. Very few periods of open play

Second quarter similar to first quarter tigs gain momentum. Casey doggedly fight back, regain momentum and score freely. If Casey can apply defensive pressure more consistently will aid winning chances in second half.

Thanks mate. 

Has Verrall been playing more forward? Curious given he's been credited with two goals, or has he floated forward from the main ruck duties?

Appreciate the insight if you're able to give some. 

Both 50 - 50 mate

 

Fullerton has now been more active around the ground which has given Verrall more time forward

If he can stay fit he will add to our side.

    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.

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
