    I hope a stack of Demon Supporters come to the Game this week. To embrace our "Home" & see the new Team Find its way. We are a chance as the Filth have a fairly young side aswell. 56,479

    Don't really care since it's not our home game! Just hope a decent number of those in red & blue go, especially those who say they can't or won't go Sundays because this is one of only three (yes three) Saturday arvo games in Melbourne.

    M2W, i'm deliberately going very low. my theory is, we got 59K I think last year queens bday. Minus at least 10K because it is not QB. Minus a bit more because it is Melbourne and Pies fans wont look at this match as a very exiting one.

    Hope it is a lot higher.

    Nah, the pies supporters will be out in force cos after falling short last week they'll want to see a big win over what they think is a dud opponent.

    I predict the crowd to be 57,884.

    I got very close last week (29,432 was my guess on last week's thread), and I'm confident I won't be far off this week.

    I base this on last week's crowd of Collingwood vs Adelaide (about 41,000), compared with the difference of Melbourne being a Melbourne-based team, minus the few that won't come because it's not a Melbourne home game, minus those who won't come due to predicted rain, minus a few of the magpie hordes who chewed their last few teeth off during last week's loss to the Crows and are still trying to read d.e.n.t.i.s.t. in the phone-book to arrange some dentures. If all fell well for the Pies (their home game), then if the sun decides to shine, 55,311 (though I'll leave my 1st prediction as my official one).

    We will be very outnumbered as it is not our home games, as bring back stated, "MFC fans don't turn up to away games at the G for some reason??"

    might be something about being seated with filth!

    FOR SURE Mont!!! Even though i am going with one.

    If we outnumbered the Roos last week then it would have been about 15,000 of us, double that for Filth supporters and ya have ya croud predictions.

    49,000. Based on what was at the G last weekend for our game, i'd say we had about 16-18,000 of that 28,000 and that's a home game.

    That said, i hope the supporters that went last week saw enough to be encouraged to come again.

    Unfortunately, the true fickle nature of the 'loyal' Melbourne Demons supporters will rear its head this weekend.

    We play Collingwood again reasonably soon in QB clash, which is OUR home game. Not sure if many Demons will turn up this week.

    my guess is, 47, 500..

    GO DEES!!

    • 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.
