    Don't care who it is. I just want this season over, with Draft Picks Thankyou.

    Don't care as long it's a home game in the social club. I want draft picks!

    Doesn't matter...

    But if I could dream, our 4th win of the year would be a round 22 victory over St Kilda against all odds. And after losing to Richmond, Nth, Freo and Carlton in the lead-up, i'll have the fortunate foresight to put $1000 on the Dee's at the very healthy odds of $15 to beat the Saints, who'd be 21-0 at that stage.. Not gonna happen :(

    Most likely to beat Freo, but to be honest i really couldn't care less, as long as it's not 5 wins...

    I would gladly lose the Freo game if it means we beat Rapetank and destroy their finals hopes.

    It's tipped as being Fremantle, however I would hope for all our sake that it would be round 22 against the Saints so we can feel relief before a game and play to win knowing we have secured two early picks.

    Agreed...

    A draw in each of the final two rounds.

    But seriously, it's gotta be the Saints. I can't wait until this season is over to barrack for my team again, but I'd love it if we were on 3 wins and were actually able to have a sneak preview of what it's like to barrack for your team again, if only for one week. Plus, it's one thing to snatch one by a couple of goals against a club who has nothing to play for. It's another entirely to ruin the Saints perfect season, and beat the best team in the league to make people raise their eyebrows.

    And as a side note, in that scenario if Freo beat us and no-one else, they'll be on 4 wins too. Which would mean that we might be fighting our way off the bottom of the ladder if our percentage was good enough. 15th, no wooden spoon and picks 1 and 3. Scully and Trengrove with a WC midfielder staying at home to play for Freo.

    I would like to beat Carlton - but if we win another game it will most likely be Freo

    Much as I'd like to thrash Carlton, I think I'd prefer to not win any of the remaining games and get the best possible picks. It would ensure us bottom spot, putting us ahead of Freo and should WC somehow slip up and win another one it would guarantee us the top two picks. Winning is simply not worth it at this point.

    That's the first time i have seen that written in all these last few weeks.

    Would really stuff up Worsfolds plans if we got home winless from here.

    Good post. Bigus

    Has to be North hands down.

    We've been their [censored] for years, and we need to learn how to win at Etihad if we're going to rise up the ladder.

    Freo would be the least exciting and satisfying win.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
