Ok so having just finally got rid of the haven't won a round one game in 10 years tag i thought we should make this year the year to remove all the embarrassing records that are trailing us. If we can do that and push for finals it will go along way to earning back some respect. I'm sure some others will know of more but the few i can think of to start with are

Etihad - We must win here - seriously its time to beat the Saints here surely!

North - We need to knock them over this year

Perth - A win against WC or the Dockers would be handy!

Some of the Melbourne based teams they reckon we havent beaten in years apart from Richmond and Essendon lol

Any others?

    The only one I care about is no premiership since 1964. Fix that one and I'll be happy

    Most of them are disgustingly embarrassing (ie the decade long round one win drought), so I can't say I don't care about them. The flag is obviously the ultimate one though.

    North Melbourne is one I would love to break. Can't stand them, don't rate them, and we are a huge chance of beating them depending on which North Melbourne turn up on the day.

    We've got a bad record everywhere and against everyone, because for the last 9 years we've been pathetic. I never saw anything as a hoodoo (ok maybe round 1) but the rest are just a product of us being so bad.

    Having said that I'd love to taste victory at Etihad and against North.

    Yup, definitely this

    and also those West Coast wankers (who are now down their two best KPD's so we should have a big advantage up forward)

    Can't stand the Hawks. Would love to see us surprise them, although I think we are 18 months away from beating that mob. They can't keep rolling forever!

    Full House.

    It's not our "Grand Final" anymore

    It's the Queens Birthday war against the Filth. September is later in the year.

    Beating Whorethorn is top of the pile though.

    We taught that club how to play tough way back and forgot to do it ourselves

    Beating Geelong in Geelong for first time in a long time on Sunday June 21st. Just imagine what it would do for players and supporters given everything that has happened since 186.

    That's the one thing that will signal we have moved on from the pain and heartbreak that has surrounded this club for so long.

    That will announce to the competition our resurgence. That we are no longer the leagues bunnies.

    We are coming [censored], and we are breathing fire and vengeance!

    We haven't beaten St Kilda since 2006.

    We get them twice this season, at the G' and at Etihad.

    We're not going to roll the Hawks but any one of them, Geelong or Essendon would be a good team to knock over. Mostly because we all know some [censored] head supporter of one of those clubs who lectures us about where we went wrong and then who points out why their club is the template we should be looking at. The truth is Geelong and Hawthorn actually have something backing them up when their fans cite them but it does s*** me when some Essendon numptie tries to tell me how the Bombers are so awesome and where we failed. Trust me, these Essendon fans, without shame if you consider the last two years, do exist. Take it from someone living in Essendon!

    Haven't been to Essendon since 1990

    Is it still the same?

    Hard to say as I have been here about 6 months. What was it like back in the day WYL?

    scary

    I live in Aberfeldie (around Buckley Street) and have yet to really venture towards Windy Hill. If I head towards Napier Street for some unforeseen reason, I will let you know. Sad thing is it must be the football team that is turning the locals into nuffies as there are no bloody pubs around here.

    We haven't beaten any of Hawthorn, Geelong, Kangaroos and Saints since 2006. Shameful, really.

    Would be nice to get at least a couple of those monkeys off our back this season

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
