Brent played 15 games for Melbourne this year -  in that period he had some standout games, particularly against Essendon and North Melbourne.  However, he struggled to perform consistently at the high level we expect from him.  At the end of the season, it has been well documented that Brent expressed his desire to look for an opportunity at another club, and we wish him well for his future. - Brian Royal (midfield coach) melbournefc.com.au

Brent Moloney joins the Brisbane Lions after eight seasons as a Demon having opted to leave the club as a free agent and to further his career under Michael Voss. Demonland thanks him for his service to the club and wishes him well at his new home.

    Thanks for your years of great service for the MFC. I didn't value what you brought to the table, but you brought it anyway. That's more than any of us here will ever do.

    Good luck at the Lions.

    Lost me when he dropped his bundle after being left out of the leadership group.... only proving why it was justified to leave him out of the leadership group. His style of footy was good when footy suited his style, but he could not, or would not, change it when the game evolved and times required it.

    Can eat all the doughnuts he likes in Brissy!

    Thanks Beemer. Good luck.

    Too true.

    It will be interesting to see if Voss lets him play it all on his own terms, or has the strength that Neeld has shown and demand he follow the team rules.

    • 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.
