Honestly, it wasn't that great. It just looked good cause he smashed the ball out of the sydney players hands.

True, but it was still good. The point I was making "why aren't we doing it" or tackling like Armitage did. Some would have us believe we should be thankful some even dare lay a tackle.

We need Vince playing an attacking role, but we may have no choice but to use him as a stopper again.

Yes but because Vince can also use the footy it will keep Bont accountable.
 

I'm not looking forward to today, for the first time in my life I have stopped enjoying going.

I've felt like that for the last few weeks, maybe more. It's not because of the losses it's because of the way we've lost.

I just want to see us go out there and take the game on. Play with some heart and balls and play like we want to win.

I've felt like that for the past decade, however today has a different feel about it. Wouldn't be surprised if we give a good account of ourselves


The only thing I more sick of than losing is everyone posting here on game day about their "good feeling about today".

So we are better off slashing our wrists and saying woe is me.

Lighten up.

The fungal infection is acting up again so (for the sake of those nearby) I will not wear sandals. It follows then that I shall leave the toga in the "Roman" room at Romsey Manor.

Would have been cold in Romsey last night and early this morning Bitters "Hot Toddy" a cure all for all inflammations including "Demonitis"

Be Bold I have put $ 20 Bucks on the Dees to win!

I can recommend kerosine baths.

I watch every game with the hope, however slight, that we might win. Otherwise it would be boring as all hell. No idea why you're still here if that's how you really feel

Not talking about hope. I always have hope we will win. But every game day thread is filled with posters saying "I've got a good feeling about today" etc.. And it's wishy washy rubbish.

As above mate.

Not about hope or wrist slashing. Just think it's a bit of a toss.

Sort of like your posts really.

After an early (3am ) start today Its an armchair ride with golden state doing the job on Houston we have a problem . Couple a wild turkey cans and some red wine will keep me awake and afloat if things go awry at the G . Its our season on the line today I expect a rough spitefull affair


Sort of like your posts really.

I know you are but what am I...

Great comeback bro.

One wish for today, that when we get the ball we move it on quickly and are not afraid to use the corridor....

Another is that we achieve 45 inside 50's for the day and kick the ball in Hogans direction 30 of those times.


I hope we try and score today, the last 3 weeks have been boring.

Why not try and kick goals and put their players under some pressure instead of just doing what they want us to do and play safe.

The only thing I more sick of than losing is everyone posting here on game day about their "good feeling about today".

if this helps i have a very bad feeling, its the 1st time I've ever backed against the Dees

I have a good feeling we're going to lose today.

  • 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.
