    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.

That’s all well n good. Now for the important stuff 😁 Ardu and Kozzie are the proud parents of a healthy baby girl, as yet unnamed. Born last Thursday. Kozzie described the feeling as “unreal” 🥹

Kev, I’m guessing they’re not having a break after Wednesday’s match, rather they don’t wanna advertise training because they want certain sessions to be ‘closed’ sessions, as in, no fans attending. 🤷‍♀️ 

Anyways, Seeya there! 👍🏽

Sunny, though a touch windy, this morning, 23 of them no emergencies. 

Forwards out first. Petty, JVR, Billings, Chandler, Kossie, Fritsch, and coach Stafford. 

The backs join them, May, Lever, Woey, McVee, Howes, TMac, Rivers, Turner, and coach Chaplin.

A trainer and Choco are on the fence talking.

The mids are now making their way over. Oliver,Tracc, Laurie,  Langdon, Sparrow, Max, Viney, ANB, Windsor.

Choco talking to the crew after the first drill. "They were excellent because of the way we set it up". Kicks between the mannequins, then one over the mannequins. He also said to Wheelan, "Kossie has shown me at least 10 pics of it, he is so happy".

Goody is standing in the centre, watching the goings on, as they drill. The noise volume is great. 

Chaplin has been taking most of the talking and directional instructing. 

Goody pulls them into a centre circle and chats away. Ends with one structured sim and a week to backline set up after a point.

The call, OK Boys, then a whistle, and back to the sheds.

Daniel Turner training is interesting. 

Good to see Kozzie training.

No Tholstrup?

No BBB no Kolt no McAdam

I believe BBB has scheduled training sessions off to manage his ongoing knee issues so potentially there is nothing unusual there.

Looks likely to be Pickett & Laurie in for Salem & Kolt

Laurie to be brought in as the extra mid rotation it seems.

Forward or back? @kev martin

I think Turner is forward. 

When the backline gathered he wasn't with them.

Choco is putting plenty of time into him as he kicks for goal at the end of the session.

Those playing with Casey are now on the Paddock, 16 of them.

Bowey in the white cap.

BBB is with them, so is McAdam, Fullarton and Tholstrup. 

BBB and McAdam of to the side doing their own kick to kick with a trainer.

He might be one game short of a gallop but I would love to see Turner come in for BBB tomorrow night and play forward. He's aggressive,  quick off the mark, can kick for goal, compete and, best of all, versatile. Just needs a reasonable run with injury.

Great to hear.  Looks like his performance in the second half with Casey up forward did not go unnoticed

Laurie in for Clarry?  Strapping and/or glove still on?  Looks fine or is he restricted in any way?

Clarry looks fine, going about it with plenty of concentration and professionalism. 

Some strapping, I didn't notice any hinderances.

    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
