  • 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.

Watch some media [censored] say "Judd is certainly going to club X', after every meeting he has :rolleyes:

He said he'll meet with 4 clubs, and he will.

He can't possibly make a decision based on one club, because he hasn't heard what other clubs have to offer.

We won't know until Monday night, at the earliest.

exactly...he's seen one club and apparently its all over..

***sigh***

things to keep in mind

The Media has to write things to justify their existance

The Media write on page 1....retract on page 78 ...if they bother !!

The media get it right ...ooh about... ...whats 3/5 of 2/3 of FA !!!

Anything which has the slightest morsel of relevance will be offered up as " Dead SET Certainty!!! "

the Media writes X on Monday Y on Tuesday...Z on wed,... denies X on thursday and changes Z the next day !!

Only Judd knows anything.. alll else is suposition!!

I don't mind listening to Parko talk about footy... but i'd have to say increasingly he seems to know less and less. I don't think he's got any idea, not least because he probably hasn't even spoken to Chris Judd to know what he's thinking.

carlton would be a very different outfit with judd and stevens on the park. especially with some more time into murphy and gibbs. i dont think they will be top4 and prob not top 8 just yet but he would be a big steal. however, i think the trade would set them back more. they need to use the top picks to draft more youngsters, and getting judd would cost them too much at this stage...

Yeah- pick 3, they shouldn't trade it..if they kept pick 1 and 3 then that would be unreal...they wont trade fev and they shouldnt trade Kennedy or any young talent..because it would go back on their youth policy

On the other hand, your right, stevens and Judd in there would give them a few extra wins on top of this season

Had lunch at Pratt's house for about 1.5 hours, then went to Optus Oval to have a look and get the presentation from Ratten.

I have yet to see Chris Judd smile. If they get vision of him meeting with Melbourne tomorrow and he smiles, he's ours :D

Judd is also meeting with Essendon on Saturday and Collingwood later in the week. Hutchy said that he will only talk to these 4 clubs, he will then make a decision and tell the Eagles "this is the club I want to go to, trade me there or I'm going into the PSD".

Carlton said they haven't made him an offer, and that they'll only make one if/when he says he is committed to them... which he obviously hasn't said.

I must have been imagining the massive grin on his face as he was walking out of optus oval...

I didn't see a massive grin... do you mean when he was trying to run away from Hutchy?

He said "it was good" and he repeated that he still had to meet other clubs. It was hardly earth shattering news.

I don't see Judd playing at TD for a team of tankers who are going nowhere fast. If he does go there, he's obviously chasing the dollar.

If you were imagining it then so was I. He looked fairly happy walking out of the Pratt house, this next couple of weeks are going to be painful.

So tomorrow is the day, best of luck to Dean and the troops, we really need this to put the club back on the map.

wonder if pratt showed him his collection of wooden spoons hehe

Dick Pratt's reportedly offered Judd the captaincy. Are they getting desperate or really stupid?

Judd said he doesn't want to be captain. He wants to come to a club and gain respect first.

Pratt also stated that he would be offering his two daughters to Judd. One will be hand feeding him grapes while he lies in a hammock as the other waves an overly large fan.

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    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,
