NAB Cup Expectations

Featured Replies

i know Frawley is still young so i hope he does well, as for Jurrah ive booked the remote. shouldnt have too many problems at that time though.

 

Melbourne simply has one optoin in the NAB cup. Show the AFL and other teams we can play as we need to prove to people that we are a strong club with an up and coming list. Look at what Hawthorn and St Kilda and Geelong had to go through. I mean FFS Fremantle has been on the bottom rung nearly every year for 13 years and yet sponsors neglect us. Fremantle have made finals once and had an old list and are as unproven as us with some of their youngsters yet Melbourne is the club who gets laughed at.

Time to step up demons 2009 is the year to drop peoples jaws show everyone we can play and tell the afl doubters to F..K off.

We must go out there to win. We must aim to win every Game, it's the only way we can survive. We have to attract Sponsors. Sponsors like good product that a Mass Audience can identify with. At the Moment we are so far from that. But i do think the tide is turning. But we MUST win some Games.

 

Jurrah will be an interesting one. - Can't wait. next sat night he is playing in the all stars game v adelaide at 11pm on ABC. Well worth a look i think.

I think the club is having an intra-club practice match on Fri 13 Feb at Casey

Yes it is at Casey on the 13th of Feb

  • 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.

  • 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.
