Looks like those Cowboys have cleaned all of our clocks !

Not saying I'm not happy... but bloody hell... Who'd have thought.

That wacky NFC East again this year.

 

Well that’s the Rams season done and dusted.

Without a decent o-line Goff is a super bust, McVay is looking more and more like a one trick pony who has been found out big time and like our coach has no plan B.

Our D has massive paycheques only superseded by the massive holes they leave in the secondary and the areas a running back wishes to run through.

The amount of penalties we give away is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

Rams are nigh on doing a Melbourne.

It did at times feel a little too easy getting to Goff, he definitely needs a good line in front of him as many others in this league do. Rams are way better than what was on display yesterday. Still only 1/4 of the season in but its gonna be a very tough division to top.

Well done Niners! Great defensive performance. Jimmy G still hasn't really got going so I wonder what he'll be like when the running game dries up a little and he has to just stand in the pocket and throw darts. Still it's nice to show that we have an actual team and prove some people wrong. Last season was tough but most teams would struggle without a starting QB, RB and tackle for most of the season.

Agree your D line was good, but I felt we cut them up early in the run game, we had over 100rds and a TD in the second qtr which no team had done either for any game then McVay went pass heavy and all went to poo.

saw a stat Whitfield was rated over 80 last two years this year low 60s, Havenstein even worse. Lose to vets out of 5 and it hurts.

Felt like the Packers got away with one there ... thought that Darrius Sheoherd dropped sitter was going to cost us.

But Rodgers does it again and the defence held Detroit to field goals.  170 rushing yards was very pleasing as well

Only did the audio so will watch the highlights later.  All the same I'll take 5 & 1 from 6.  Even with a softish home field draw we've still played some decent opposition.

Any observations from anyone who might have watched?

Yeah no arguments from me there. Rams running was slicing early and it did seem like it wasn't going to stop. 

More often than not there's no way around injuries. Lose players, lose games. It sucks.

Mahomes dislocates kneecap, gotta miss games over that. Big point will be if there is ligament damage.

Out for a month only by all reports.  Which is great news for the League. 

But good news for my Packers ... we're at KC next week.  Doesn't guarantee anything of course but Mahomes being out is a significant loss.

Massive loss and if it was the Rams going to KC I’d b3 pumped. I’m watch8ng packers game now, but gotta leave for work in a min, Rodgers on fire.

Rams missed a 40yrd FG, We then hold Atlanta on their drive by sacking Ryan twice.

Eagles in real trouble now. Injuries too much, and going forward the list is in a fair bit of strife.

Gees Atlanta suck Gorg... I'm starting to enjoy watching other games more than just focusing on my team. Season is completely gone & we are battling it out with Miami as the worst side in the league. There's too much talent on the roster for Quinn not to be fired, he assumed DC duties and the D has gone backwards. He is a dead man walking.

I listened in to half time but the game was effectively over after the first 5 minutes.  Costly errors allowed Dallas to score 2 x TD's without much trouble

But you have those days ... you're at the Bills next and then 3 tough games at home (Bears,  Pats,  Seahawks)  Need to win at least 2 and probably 3 of those 4 games.

  • 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.

    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.
