    Yes, sorry, I meant outside of Victoria.

    Can a mod possibly change "MCG" to "Victoria" please.

    Interesting nonetheless.

    Let's see if we can notch up our second win since 1988 (?) at Skilled Stadium :P

    If we beat Geelong next week I'll tattoo the Melbourne emblem on my forehead.

    No chance.

    We have no chance next saturday...Kelly Underwood will be commentating!!!!!

    Still cannot believe the game of The Russian last night..What an effort for the jumper that was.

    That effort should inspire the whole club this week.

    And from memory the last win before that was in the 80's! Not a happy hunting ground for the Dees.

    There was also a draw in 2006 -Funny to think that at this time both sides were quite evenly matched... Who would have thought that 4 years later, they would be dual premiers and we would be dual wooden spooners.

    Yes we played about 4 years worth of close games against Geelong & then the cats just went BANG!! With the right attitude they can be matched, will be interesting to see how the club & Footy Dept treat this week.

    Geelong will be red Hot favourites so we Demons have nothing to lose.

    And that is the exact attitude that the Demons should go into next saturdays game-Play for each other & do not fear the cats or their ground.

    Take risks run & move the ball. Enjoy the challenge & not fear it at all.

    I no longer fear any team we play.

    Only thing better than beating the cats next week would be a big big Demon win on the queens birthday.

  • Quote

    Because we're absolutely no chance, I think we'll win.

  • Quote

    It's not about the win. Having seen Geelong against Collingwood, I feel safe in saying we're no chance. Especially down at Skilled.

    It's about the effort. I don't want to see a West Coast style performance, which will give us a 100 point loss. I want to see us really compete against the best team in the competition.

    This game will really help us determine where we're at.

  • Quote

    I'd be thrilled if we lose by less than 6 goals. That would be a seriously good effort.

    The only way we can win is if Ablett, Scarlett, Bartel and Selwood get injured in the warm up.... Bail-style.

    If we beat them by more than a point I'll also tattoo "I love Juice" on my boobs and post photographic evidence on Demonland.

    Seriously, we are no chance.

    Despite some posters voting in the affirmative (which will undoubtedly follow), I'm pretty sure that would be against the Code of Conduct.

    I also think it's a safe bet that it won't happen.

    That being said, a week is a long time in footy, Jaded. Plenty of enthusiasm about our young players that will be wanting to test themselves against the best.

    Some nervous moments for you, perhaps. :lol:

    If we win, it might almost be worth deforming myself forever and having to explain to people why I love fruit juice so much that I felt the urge to tattoo it on my body.

    Just be sure to have tattooed "100% Fruit Juice." ;)

    It's a claim often used that meets regulatory food standards.

    I'll hold you too that !!!

    • 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.
