    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.

On Saturday, Sandringham travels to Tassie's Aurora Stadium to take on the hapless bottom of the ladder Tassie Devils in a match that starts at 6.30pm. The Zebras will not take the game lightly because the Devils are always hard to beat on home soil and Sandy will not be at full strength with full forward Nick Sautner away overseas with his studies. The strength of the Demon contingent in the team will be not be the greatest with the club's growing injury list. I'll try to get the teams for the game up as early as possible on Thursday.

The Reserves have a bye this week.

Can anyone tell me why the game is being played in Nonsenston?

Our corrupt govt gets the Gunn's Hawks matches played there at 'Pork Barrel Park' - you think we could at least get this one game against last year's premiers in the State capital.

I've had a bit of a scrub around but can't find anything in relation to an internet radio stream of the game. The VFL site still has last week's games up of course. Anyone know what we might expect?

Yep, disappointing. Shame, I've always enjoyed the Devils / Sandy games, as I've been to every one that was in Hobart.

Enjoy Zebraman. We look forward to your report on how the game went.

In the meantime, if anyone out there wants to join Zebraman its not too late to "take a break" and get down to Tassie and help the Zebs at the same time.

Book your trip with TasTravel who have some fantastic footy packages. To check these out go to : www.discovertasmania.com/sportspkg/football, or you can tailor your own "short break".

Tas Travel support the VFL Competition and the more bookings made gives our club a better chance to win a fantastic prize of a gourmet Tasmanian food and wine hamper, valued at $800 which can be auctioned or raffled at the end of the year.

Win or lose, everyone kicks a goal when you take up this offer.

Contact 1300 655 145 or visit www.tastravel.com to book your holiday and then send your booking number to the SFC office to ensure the club is in the running for the Hamper which SFC can use as a raffle for the club.

NOTE: With a little bit of ingenuity, you can book your return in time to see Mark Riley take the Demons to his first win as AFL coach against Carlton.

A further scratch around indicates to me that there may be no broadcast of any kind of this match, over-the-air, streaming internet or even two jam tins with string stretched between them. Tassie radio is a bit depressing generally, enough to drive you to drink.

Tis quite a nice stadium actually, especially on a nice clear nite. Was counting on going up but finances are stretched to the limit this week. Have a great time, GO ZEBS! Should be an absolute flogging! (sorry tassie, have to be a traitor this week!)

Don't bet on it being an absolute flogging. Sandringham won't have too many MFC listed players to choose from this week given our injury list.

It'd be interesting to see Sandy's forward line if Newton, Dunn and Miller all line up for the Dees with Sautner also not available.

The ground on the stand side has a fairly straight boundary and on the other side it has a sweeping arc. Most unusual. At least we know which side of the ground is the fat one.

one of the good things about this is that if dunn doesnt play for the mfc, he will get a chance to play as a KP in the forward line with no newton, or miller there, an opportunity he hasnt had for a while.

overall a pretty strong backline however. sandy still look too strong for me in this game.

Same hopefully goes for Frawley who hasn't played a full game at any level since the season started.

For those who have Digital, the ABC2 channel is now showing Tassie home games a week later at 1.30am on Sunday mornings. I'm not certain whether this applies to evening fixtures.

No it doesn't.

Only to Saturday afternoon Devils VFL games at Bellerive or Saturday AFL curtain raiser matches in Launceston.

It was cold with a few showers today in Launceston with a maximum of 11C. Same expected for tonight. The feeling in Tassie is that Sandringham is vulnerable in the wet having played poorly a few weeks ago against Box Hill.

Quarter time and the Tassie Devils have a narrow 1 point lead ...

Tassie 3.1.19

Sandringham 2.6.18

    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
