Demons see some hope in defeat | The Australian

MELBOURNE's season in 2008 didn't open. It closed. A 104-point mauling from Hawthorn first-up, which featured for emphasis just one goal in the first half, stopped the campaign dead on day one.

MELBOURNE lost yesterday. As it did 19 times in the 2008 season. Yet, this is still a different Demon team: much younger, fitter and far more competitive.

SEVERAL truisms have applied to modern North Melbourne sides on the field, the most notable of which is that they routinely exceed expectations through the home-and-away season and satisfy them in September.

Lucky for North Melbourne it did not trade ruckman Hamish McIntosh last October.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
