Only 2 non MFC players in first 18. If we lose this there will be no1 to blame except Watts

So many times people on the forum have said we'd lose to a VFL side, this is about as close as we're going to come to finding out.

God damn it's good to see Hogan named.


They not playing this out the whitten oval?

WTH is "Highgate oval"??

lol.."Toumpas too". Toump the bridesmaid.

Almost more excited for this game than the main event.

In fact scratch that. I am definitely more excited for this one. Please god let them both play well.

 

What a crap location for both teams.

Fingers crossed the Hulk gets through unscathed!!

F: Blease Pedersen Kennedy-Harris

Decent forward line...

Could be our forward line against West Coast next week. ;)

Good point. Anyone know what Pedo did wrong to be dropped? I know team balance was an issue with Max coming in but Pedo had been in form and can play both ends.

Clearly Pedo is a required player for next year, no doubt about it! I don't really think he will play after his "Nose job" and so following 'Due Dilligence" Roos is giving others "Under a Cloud' A chance to show they want to be a part of it next year!

Now who else is under the microscope for a Gig Next year??

Pedo didn't get dropped last week, he was injured, Gawn played a great game last week and with team balance it's hard to fit Pederson in. Good chance for Hogan and Pederson to work on forward line structure.

Would you pick him over Dunn or McDonald down back considering they've been decent enough most of the year? Would you pick him over Frawley, Dawes or Gawn? Frawley's mistakes have been highlighted but his positives have also been there and Dawes has been in mixed form but still brings defensive pressure as well. Pretty much Pedersen is unlucky but for now he's out of the team. Any injuries to any talls and he'd come in and I'd expect over preseason he'd have every chance to win a best 22 shot forward or back.

Three boys who will help propel us up the ladder again.

Is the Casey game televised?

No, he actually got dropped first then they brought his operation forward.

Huh? You have written off Toumpas numerous of times saying he was a wasted pick yet now you have named him as your 3 great hope of getting us up the ladder. I dont get you....

Anyway 11am in the morning for a senior match!??? Couldn't think of a more worst time slot. Thats like back in the days when your playing Thirds football with the dew still on the grass..

I have never written him off

Just frustrated that the 3 picks directly after him were McRae, Stringer and Wines

Toump will be a fine player


Not looking good for my boy Evans.

He has a few mates. Looks also like the Westrupp experiment hasn't paid dividends, hard to see him getting another year.

Yet Pedo is selected for Casey this week???

why do people keep saying Pedo wasn't dropped last week?

The changes read - Cam Pedersen (omitted)

Not injured. Omitted.

it doesn't get any clearer than that

Yep Dew of the grass ah the memories..... And Agree with sentiments re Toumpas Not even I would have the glass half full, half empty!

Credibility suffers when a complete 360 turn around is not rationalised and explained.

This might be what was trying to be said which is my view also

You ah know my Views on Toumpas. However, I hope he can turn around my perceptions for his Sake and that of the MFC.

  • 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.
