i remember not long ago someone posted a topic that said there was a big story coming, i heard at cricket training last night that someone has tested positvie 3 times. Just wondering if its the same thing! i would have thought this would be out by now considering the 3 strikes and its public knowledge!

    i know and the person that mentioned this was in the media in some terms and they know about it, it would suprise me that if they got there grubby little hands on it they wouldn't bring it out.

    if its true that player get 2 years right! would that end there playing career?

    Well there are three possibilities:

    1. It's a fierce rumour, made up and taken as gospel, whilst the said player in question never actually got strike three.

    2. It actually happened and the AFL are waiting to announce it (after draft week I would think).

    And for the conspiracy theorists:

    3. If said player in question was a big drawcard for the sport, exactly what people came to the footy to see, then this player's third strike was overlooked in light of the excitement and general greatness he brings to the game. :D And we will never hear about it.

    im thinking its 1 but he got 2 strikes!

    fwiw the 3 strike policy results in a maximum 12 games suspension, because it is OoC the charge is something to do with bringing the game is disrepute etc not drug taking.

    also regarding the big name player suspected of 3 strikes, ive got contacts within his management and all indications suggest its a false rumor. ok so management could cover it up too, but its a pretty good contact and i pretty much trust them...

    That is the one.... Right there.

    Ive been told who the rumoured person is, the guy who told me works for the club.

    Only thing is he isn't sure if it was his 2nd or 3rd strike, no one seems to 100% know. However it would not surprise me at all if they kept it quiet being how big a draw card he is for the game.

    something like this will not be kept quiet im sure, they couldnt possibly do that.

    it brings me back to cousins, his issues were well known to nearly everybody before he was suspended, will a lesson be learned from him?

    dont think we should mention the name on here

    If you don't want to mention a name can you list a stat for his season and we can look it up

    correct, its not like we are the only ones who know who he is.

    other clubs and players will know and if the let him get away with it, what kind of message is that sending? If your an up and coming superstar of the game, do all the drugs you want, we wont tell anyone because we can make all the money we want off you...

    Wonder how long this thread lasts then! We all know of the player, I hear conflicting stories of 2 or 3 strikes from a couple of friends of mine, there doesnt seem to be any definitive answer to how many strikes he's on though...

    lol yeah i know friends of mine are the same, i think it may be just thats he and maybe a few teammates are well known for the kind of stuff but just ahvent been caught, if it keeps up though i think they will be gone hopefully!

    Alright children, I think you've all made it clear who the player is with your little clues.

    If other people haven't figured it out by now, tough.

    No more cryptic clues please!

    My mail is that it's definitely 3 strikes, and the substance in question can also be bought in a red, silver or black can.

    The issue now is whether the 3rd strike was on match day.

    your mail is obviously wrong. if there was a first strike on match day he would be out. the three strikes rule only applies to out of competition testing, for which the punishment for the 3rd strike is 12 weeks. it gets stiffer for a 4th strike (i think its then up to 2 years).

    as i mentioned all ready, i heard a few whispers and inquired about it and have been told it definitely didnt happen. i might be wrong but the people in the know (the best people who know) have told close friends that it is a rumour.

    Sorry, I don't know who the admin is to write to about this, but can I suggest (strongly) that the posts here are likely to be defamatory in nature notwithstanding the cryptic nature of them. Shut it down.

    Your friendly defamation lawyer

    My mail is that people here need to STFU if they don't want Demonland to get into trouble.

    I'll add to that.

    Anyone who claims that a person is a drug taker and identifies that person is personally liable as well.

    I've just deleted most of the posts in this thread.

    Please don't mention names, nicknames, or give away anymore cryptic clues.

    This stuff can seriously damage the website and get the owners into huge trouble.

    I repeat, DO NOT make any mention or give away any obvious clues about who this player may be.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
