  • 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.

hello everyone,

i usually not one for crazy early season rumours, but i found this one interesting and i have heard it 2 or 3 times now.

Kerr is looking to get out of Perth, needs a freshen up apparently. He has a preference, and it is Carlton from all reports.. would the Dee's be interetsted in him..

i would think so especially if he slips through to the Pre season draft...

That rumour went around about Embley last year.

BTW, whether its said once or 100 times, a rumour is speculation in absence of fact.

You dont have to be so serious Rhino all the time and such a smart ar$e and act like you know more about everything than anyone in the world. If you read my post properly, i said it was a rumour and that is all it is, i'm just posing a question mate...

LIGHTEN UP!

We may be in the box seat come preseason draft time to snag the best available unhappy player. 2003 there was Jade Rawlings (He was good back then) and Nick Stevens. We got left with Phil Read....

Would happily take him, in the psd would be great but as someone has already said he may be contracted to '09

Ben Cousins will be a demon in 2009

....without much substance mate. :rolleyes:

Given MFC's plight its a bleedin obvious we would look seriously at anyone who could play to that standard coming through the PSD.

I think Ben Cousins has been playing with Demons for quite a few years

The last thing i want to see is him prove it by wearing our guernsey

Mate, I'd love to have both of Kerr and Cousins, although I'm sure it's a view not popular on this forum

I would love Kerr to come to our club. He is an absolute gun.

IMO i always had Judd, Kerr and Cousins (in that order) when they were at their peak.

Well I would first see how well he improves at W.C. this year coping with a heavy tag, but nonetheless of course we would take him if available. Though we all know that he either won't leave, or if he does will probably want to go somewhere where he returns to being no 2. So he would really have to want to come here for us to get him. Btw, who did he support in his youth? Wasn't us was it?

He wants to follow his mate to Carlton.

He is contracted untill the end of 2009 but if he really wants to go i reckon a deal could be done as WCE would want to get something for him. Especially if their season keeps going the way it is and they might have to start look at rebuilding the list with youth for a tilt at the premiership in 5 years time.

I thought the rumour was that he wanted to be where ever Judd was?

yeah i thought the same. although getting there might be a problem.

FWIW i rate Kerr higher than Judd, and it's not just cos he might become available, i had the same opinion last year when Judd said he was coming home.

Fact: Kerr is a gun

Fact: Kerr is a F#$K Head

Fact: Carlton cannot afford him

Fact: The MFC is the most unattractive football club in Victoria for out of contract players. (it is true guys, we have shitful facilities, an underdeveloped list, and a club that has some off field problems)

We will have a dip, WC will ask the world for him considering they are rebuilding. We are also rebuilding, we could use a hard player like Kerr. Even if he is mental.

As for Ben cousins, he could go anywhere. Would love him at the dees, can see the woods getting his signature though.

Hmm. If Kerr wants Carltank, they will work something out - don't you worry.

Re Judd, I disagree - Judd is the better. Judd is performing at C, Kerr is struggling under tagging at WC.

Don't want Kerr if it means giving up draft picks, it isn't healthy. Unless we trade for those picks.

We are suffering right now because our talent is either high 20s or 23 and younger. Getting old and slow vs. untried and inexperienced. It's carryover from our draft penalties in '99 and '00 (and Luke Molan in '01).

If we can muscle someone into the PSD, the more power to us. That's what is there for.

I propose a forum wide ban on anyone using the draft penalties as an excuse for our current plight, over the last decade we've wasted far more first and second round picks than those couple of penalties.

    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,
