I can't be buggered voting today, because coming up with anyone after Bate and Frawley is too hard.

Interesting you gave JG a vote though. I love the boy to death like as much as the rest, but I thought he was our WOG today. He just torched it so many times, it was very frustrating. JT wasn't too far behind in this regard.

FWIW I thought Dunn was reasonable today and I'd probably have him in my 6 somewhere.

I gave him a vote for putting his body on the line time and time again and actually having a go.

Finding 6 players who deserved votes though was a struggle. It was a toss up between him and Dunn, but Dunn has so many brainfarts each week that I can't bring myself to reward him. He makes my blood boil after 6 years in the system.

6 - Bate..obvious

5 - Frawley...another quality scalp

4 - Garland....played well, especially early when most slept

3 - Trengove.....could've finished his work a little more efficiently but was in and amongst it

2 - Scully....same as JT really

1 - Bruce....tried hard

And to all the Watts bashers....I thought he was far from the worst. Yes we saw the soles of his shoes far too often but wasn't alone there. He was up and about a bit more but Gerard Healy probably summed him up well by saying he need to show a bit more urgency.

Very hard to give a vote from a weak display. Only leaned towards the younger boys due to their excuse of being young.

Dissapointing day.

Very disappointing. We MUST start well against St.Kilda next week. I don't care if St.Kilda are the form team of the competition. We got 22 players out there and so do they. We got to be the in the game from start to finish, no excuses.

CARN THE DEES.

Watts was better was he?

Someone gave watts votes?

oh why bother..

I saw improvement in him. And I saw more effort from him than from plenty of other players. It wasn't a brilliant performance, hardly even a good one, but I thought he at least showed something compared to previous efforts.

Agree, at least Dunn kicked 2 goals and troubled their defenders just a little.

To me that's overselling Dunn immensely. He was meant to do a defensive job on Johncock, but old Stiffy had a good game.


Agree that Johncock got away from Dunn too much and the points on the day go to stiffy but Dunn was not too bad on the very few occasions we got the ball into our 50 and had we got even close to matching clearances/stoppages that we should have then Dunn could have exploited this area more. He just didn't really get the delivery required to exploit him.

Extra credit to Matty Bate on his game due to this fact. Super effort Bater.

  • 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.
