Viney's skills are putrid.

It's tradition that great ball users generally don't find their way to the MFC clint with some very good exceptions oger the decades. Never enough in the same season to put an effective team together since 2006

Daniel Cross with 38 disposals.
 

some good players which is good to know. just need to clear the dead wood this off season. If we do that we can be en route for finals

that's what we say at the end of every year

Grimes has been terrific in this second half. 20 touches and lots of good defensive efforts. Great stuff.


I like Grimes, he's frustrating but I think he's a good reader of the ball. Needs to eat a few steaks though, then eat some more.

Hey boys, you're 40 points down, KICK THE [censored] BALL FORWARD INSTEAD OF CHIPPING IT BACK AND FORTH IN DEFENSE!

[censored]!
 

Shut the fark up and call the game, Dermie!! And get a farkin haircut!

Well done Grimes

Our use of the footy is bewildering and disgusting at the same time.


FFS he got given the handball with no time and run down from behind, he got sold by Garland.

Wow thats unusual for Garland. Never normally panic handballs to a stationary target who has an opponent next to him ●_●

The disposals... its an ongoing nightmare....

Have we had a great kick since Yze?

And the saddest thing is- this is our best performance in a month

Very funny Chook.


honestly we must have dumb recruiters... All the top teams get players who can kick yet we get players with such poor kicking skills ... Those traits can be seen @ u18 level as this skill is generally set by then as it becomes a habit .. Such as kicking on both sides of the body....

Garlett's been really good. Showjng a bit of leadership too.

 

Hogan inexplicably standing near the centre square right then, as we bomb the ball into the forward line (and a Freo player marks it).

What the [censored] Roos?

Want us to fight this one until the end. Not let them kick away even more

i guess i was asking for too much.

Typical how we leak goals towards the end of games. Clearly none take much pride in their own performances, let alone the team's on a whole. This will end up being a 10 goal loss, so our futile resistance will count for nothing in the end...........again.

  • 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.
