    Moanaghan = no loss, because no payout; plenty of fish out there.

    Clarkson; blessed with above average support, with direction dictated by Dunstall & Co originally.

    Viney; if he was worth something Hawthorn would have made an offer he could not refuse. Instead, he left for Adelaide. Never liked crap around here to get him back to Dees.

    Fagan and Evans; who are they?

    Having met the bloke once in the rooms post-match I can honestly say, like quite a few no-named assistant coaches or auxiliary club personnel, he is consumed with his own false sense of self-importance and absolutely no loss to our organisation. Ta-ta you redundant minion.

    I'll qualify what I wrote initially; it was beyond what I intended and frankly... tooooo many beeers for Diablo tonight.

    What I will say is that there are plenty of people involved in football who let the fanfare of it all go to their heads. Blokes with no standing whatsoever in the game who think that, because AFL is massively renowned, by extension so are they. Enter Rosco Monaghan.

    I don't know Ross, never met him, but I don't think Craig Cameron would have poached him if he was rubbish at his job.

    Unless CAC himself is also rubbish at his job...

    Or just thought it'd be nice to fill a vacant position with a guy he knows...

    "Hey Rosco, what you up to? Hows things down at the dees? Oh yeah, the tiges are awesome mate, i'm having a ball. Look, there's actually a position popping up if you feel like a change... Yeah? You reckon? Oh sweet, I'd love to have you here. Look, I'll sort it out for you, don't worry. Yeah, we stay up late playing super mario kart like the old days! Nice one, ok. See you on the weekend. Later."

    Speak For Yourself!! I watched many games involving Todd Viney & I want him back in the MFC Family-He was A True Hard Nut.

    Clarkson is a top bloke-Good luck to him

    Not that Monaghan is a huge loss, but is anyone a little concerned about all the other clubs making coaching & admin announcements, yet we haven't heard boo out of Melbourne?

    The usual end of season coaching changes have been happenning, Campbell, Harvey, Burns, Nigel Lappin, Barker, Mitchell to name a few have either changed clubs or taken up roles after retiring, yet nothing from us. I would like to think that we'd have been considering our options for midfield or forward coaches. Even if all our coaches are contracted, doesn't mean we can look at adding a development coach in a part time role like Robert Harvey.

    And does anyone know anything about Ox coming back to the club? We could do a lot worse then getting a part-time forward coach at the 2nd highest scoring club this year

    We already have a fair few assistants/development coaches IIRC.

    In case you hadn't noticed, we're not exactly flush with money :P

    :D

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
