Should not be a priority, especially with Jack Viney joining us in 2013. We need skillful outside mids who will spread, run and carry.

    Hayes, Sewell, Black ... you are dreaming.

    I think you'd call that a nightmare

    Did anyone see how easily Collingwood won the centre square and the stoppages. (" We need skillful outside mids who will spread, run and carry" WTF)

    We need tough footballers, skilled, tacklers and good muscle. Not outside runners. Gysberts and Strauss will provide that when fit/ Nicholson, Bail, Blease are the outside runnders.... of yes and Morton.

    Maybe swap Cale Morton for Koby Stevens.

    Get on board, we need inside mids ... yes we get Viney but need more. We cannot rely on Nathan Jones all the time.

    Gysberts is not an outside runner, he is an inside mid with a footballers mentality (knows how to get the ball) not an athletes. He may not have the body yet but that's what he was recruited for. We need good decision makers and that is one of the big negs on Stevens.

    Stevens is an average midfielder who can't get a game. He will not solve any of our problems, and we shouldn't bother going after him unless we get him for nothing eg 3rd round pick. We need classy star midfielders, of which he is neither.

    How many times did Jones win the contested ball and either have no help or no runners to handball to? We have Jones,Magner,Beamer and Couch and they all can't play in the same midfield at the same time. We need running options for the inside mids we already have.

    My call was to consider trading Cale Morton for Koby Stevens. Vote now?

    (ps. again for those with poor eyesight ... did anyone see the stoppages and clearances agst the Pies. Stop the theory, check the facts)

    He could play at Casey

    Saw their run and spread, saw them intercept from our poor decisions. So we need someone who is reputed to be slow and a poor decision maker, how does that work?

    This is not a Cale vote and I don't want to get into the merits but he is worth a lot more than a straight swap for Stevens.

    I think we'll go hard out for Boak.

    Pretty sure there's a bit of bad blood from when Mitch left (?!)

    The Mortons father gave west coast a bake for not treating mitch morton like chris judd, hence why they wanted him out quick smart.

    Great idea. West Coast would be mad to reject.

    Its a win win - Morton for Stevens. Neither are getting a game, and other more. Mrton would be better in the free space of Subiaco, and Stevens would welcome the warrior style of Neeld.

    Have a look at WAFL R14 Mark of the Day Subiaco v East Fremantle... fyi Koby Stevens.

    I have seen him play and he is the type to get into our team. Physically ready. Gets the footy. Good endurance. Clearances. Tackles very well. Not the quickest jet but capable.

    • 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.
