    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 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.

I know this has been done to death but new rumours of Chris Judd leaving WCE has surfaced. with trade period only 3 weeks away, it is highly topical again. it seems Judd is not that happy at WCE (and with their gangster, druggy culture who could blame him tbo) and would not rule out coming back to melbourne to play footy.

Now let's make a huuugggeee assumption. trade week has just started and Judd nominated the demons as his prefered club to play for (ala Akermanis and bulldogs). it is now up to WestCoast and demons to make a deal that is reasonable and fair to both sides...

Who would you be willing to trade for Judd?

NOTE: Judd is in the top 3 players in the afl. we have not had a player in the top 20 players in the afl for about 10 years!!! he is a genuine superstar and you have to give up quality to get quality!!!

My possible trade:

1) Johnstone and pick 4 to WCE (quality midfield replacement and top draft pick)

Judd and pick 40something to MFC

2) Pick 4, Sylvia and Davey to WCE (high pick, and 2 young quality upncomers)

Judd and pick 40ish to MFC

3) pick 4, pick 21 and Mclean to WCE (2 good draft picks and Mclean a gun youngster)

Judd and Staker to Melbourne to MFC

I know I am a one eyed demon supporter, but are these fair trades?i reckon all of mine of probably well in favour of us, but keep in mind that if Judd nominates us then WestCoast are a little bit stuck in that they have to bargain with us or risk losing him in the PSD...

oh how id love to see Judd at melbourne. finally we would have a player whos actually in the top 2 players in the league.

What would people give up for him?

I stopped reading there. You're all blinded my Brocks (and our) shithouse season. Brock McLean is still oozing with leadership qualities and under no circumstances should be traded. That's right, not even for god...

but you might note that this trade includes Judd AND Staker. Staker by himself would be worth a top 10 pick...otherall it balances out. gotta give quality to get quality.

I too would love to see judd in the red and blue but what to give WCE is a very difficult desion. Your trades are alright but we lose to much for the one player. My prefered trade would be:

Miller (Young versitile KPP do appeal to some clubs especially clubs without many forwards) and a quality midfielder such as green, bruce travis etc. (My choice would be Green now ok i know he is a hard midfielder who always tries his hardest with lots of leadership qualities but i think judd fills all these and thensome.) and a late draft pick i.e 4th pick

Miller, Green and our 4th Pick (im not sure what it is)

For Judd and one or 2 of there picks (if one then a 2nd pick if two then lower ones)

People have been worrying about Judds injuries but personally (im no doctor but heres my opinon) I think its not OP and after some rest over the pre season he will be fine for 2008

Make no mistake. The MFC should be celebrating for a week if it landed Judd. I know I would. It's not a flag, but arguably the next best thing. And could deliver one. If he wants to come back to Victoria we should leave no stone unturned in getting him. His injury (some floating bone in his groin) will be relieved by a minor operation.

Let's stop being an also ran. An irrelevent club. A minor consideration. Nice.

If he's available, get him.

What would I pay ? Pick 4, Bruce, Frawley (West Coast were very interested last draft).

I agree Hannabal

LETS BE BOLD

LETS SHOW SOME INITIATIVE FOR ONCE

Lets put pull all stops to get C.Judd to Melbourne

He will have groin surgery in the next fortnight, and he will be as good as gold

Who wouldnt want a fully fit JUDD running around for the MFC? He will be the best player to ever pull on the Red and Blue, and we will be able to watch him and cheer for hiom every week!!

MY TRADE

Demons send Cameron Bruce, Chris Johnson, pick 4 and pick 21 to the Eagles

for Chris Judd and pick 15

Mad to get Judd at any price and if you think he alone will win a GF think again, do you think a mill a year as reported will solve the problem then you are barking up the wrong tree, not worth it.

I am pretty sure that no player is worth a million a year........

This is because while he would make us better, the flip side is the cost problems it could cause with the rest of the list.

One man can help win us a Premiership, but he certainly can't do it alone, and for that price he may well have to <_< !!!

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt

    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.
