Welcome to Demonland: Pick 11
There's a few good options around draft pick number #11 if we choose to use it. ● Nate Caddy ● Connor O'Sullivan ● Darcy Wilson ● Ollie Murphy ● Caleb Windsor ● James Leake (Tasmanian) ● Harry De Mattia ● Archie Roberts ● Will Green ● Riley Hardeman (Western Australian) ● Archer Reid All being possibilities of young guns we could look to choose in the 2023 AFL National Draft.

2024 Jumper Numbers
Mitch Clark had jumper number #11 as I recall. But yes, it would be nice for a new Demons player to have jumper number #6 for a significant amount of time. Jack Billings wore jumper number #15. So therefore, he could possibly move to #14 or to whatever number is available.

Why Melbourne Must Hire a Coach to Solve Their Forward Woes
What's happened to Stuart Dew I wonder? 🤔 As far as I know, he hasn't obtained a new coaching role yet.

Training Ground?
Any further updates on our Home Base? Is it a "green light" for the Caulfield Racecourse?

Almost 30 years
Was a fantastic year 1994! I have watched "The Demon Attack" many times over the years. Could of won the flag if we hadn't run into a juggernaut West Coast Eagles side.

The Pick 1 Thread
I am happy with either trying to obtain pick #1 to draft Harley Reid or keeping our early round draft picks for other young talent. It would be kinda funny if the Eagles chose the Demons over the Kangaroos in a "mega deal" just in spite. 🤣 Quite entertaining all of this. However, I would personally prefer we keep our options open as there is still lots of other extremely gifted young footballers we can draft. Such as.... ● Zane Duursma ● Colby McKercher ● Ryley Sanders ● Nick Watson ● Nate Caddy ● Connor O'Sullivan ● Darcy Wilson So lots of options and possibilities! 🤔

Farewell Brodie Grundy
A bit disappointing that the Brodie Grundy trade didn't work out. Many of us had high hopes.....but oh well! 🤷🏼♂️ As for the trade of pick #46 and a future 2nd round pick for Brodie Grundy. Talk about getting screwed! I would of preferred a lower pick. But it is what it is I guess? I wish Brodie Grundy all the best (except against Melbourne).

2024 Jumper Numbers
If we end up getting him in a trade, you would think Shane McAdam may want jumper number #23? Which is the same number he has worn at the Adelaide Crows.

2023 Best and Fairest
I watched the live stream. Which was mainly pretty good. As expected, Christian Petracca wins his 2nd Keith "Bluey" Truscott Memorial Trophy. Thought it would be a lot closer with Jack Viney though. Heard the word "Culture" a dozen or more times which is good. I am assuming that some of that is a subtle reminder to Clayton Oliver. But I am sure he got lots of love and well wishes this evening. We all love and support Clarrie and obviously want him to do well. Steven May, absolutely brilliant speech! He said exactly what we were all thinking! We are better than [censored] Collingwood! Let's beat them next year! Hopefully Clarrie and the rest of team is inspired by the classic Ron Barassi quote repeated by Simon Goodwin which is "if it is to be, it is up to me!" Let's win that Premiership on the MCG next year Demons!

2023 Best and Fairest
I just want to wish everyone from Demonland who is attending the Melbourne Demons 2023 Best & Fairest a wonderful evening! GO DEMONS!!! 🔴🔵👹

Farewell James Jordon
Disappointing to see James Jordon leave. But I totally understand his situation. He wants to play more midfielder minutes for an AFL Club. Greatful of all he did as a Demon and as a substitute who unfortunately never got onto the ground in the Grand Final for the 2021 AFL Premiership. That was a shame. But at least he received a Premiership Medallion! Definitely a handy player for us! I wish "JJ" all the best for the future (except against the Demons) at his new home over at the Swans.

FREE AGENTS - 2023
Not sure if Trent Bianco from the Magpies has been offered a new contract yet. I recall him having pretty impressive kicking skills. Perhaps worth a shot if he ends up being a delisted free agent? Here is an old article regarding Trent Bianco from a few weeks ago: https://www.sen.com.au/news/2023/08/03/the-out-of-contract-magpie-that-has-some-interest-from-rival-clubs/ I also found a highlights video from 2021: Worth giving a 2nd chance maybe?

Farewell James Harmes
Will be sad to see James Harmes go. 😔 But I understand he has had limited opportunities this season. He is will always be loved as a Demons Premiership player.

What's needed in 2024
I am sure there will be a few Melbourne supporters giving their "2 cents worth" to Simon Goodwin, Jason Taylor and Tim Lamb at tonight's Best & Fairest about the types of players the Demons need to recruit. The main priority is elite decision makers and excellent kicks! But I am confident they well and truly know that by now.

Any word on Angus?
Hopefully Angus Brayshaw will be attending the Melbourne Demons Best & Fairest tonight too!

From the vault
Here is a classic Melbourne Demons patch from the 1980s. I actually have this! It's somewhere in my bedroom. Just need to find it! 🤔

Trade Rumours 2023
Apparently Rhys "Beastmode" Mathieson is leaving the Brisbane Lions due to lack of opportunities. Is he worth a punt? I know he is quite an annoying and obnoxious bugger when he has played against the Demons. But he could be ideal midfield depth perhaps? Here is a link regarding the news story: https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/brisbane-lions/afl-trade-news-rumours-whispers-brisbane-lions-confirm-rhys-mathieson-seeking-new-home-dayne-zorko-future-deven-robertson-resigned-tom-doedee-will-ashcroft-levi-latest/news-story/c879298a741f3108d362772c99b21843
