Some DA members at the airport today were talking to Kalani. He told them he’s looking forward to playing for Casey towards the end of the season. The boy’s a Demon, no doubt about it ♥️💙🥳

If he elects GC we will be very peed off with the Northern Academies.

    How likely is it we even draft him, seems to have very little buzz about him

    Showed enough in 1 quarter at VFL level that he's a draftable talent, especially with his level of athleticism

    The idea that Kalani was ever playing anywhere but Melbourne was fanciful.

    Have seen enough for me to say the kid CAN play and will be a fine player!

    I hope we leave the kid alone and let him develop, without the weight of expectations put on him by DL.

    He is not a saviour, but rather just another promising kid, nothing more. There are no guarantees on becoming an AFL player just because you make an AFL list.

    Jed Adams and Seston are examples of that, though they still can make it if they keep improving.

    Should someone check over on 'Sunland' whether a thread was started after a candlelight dinner around 2007?

    Except they weren’t even a club in 2007. Actually, they’re still not a club, they’re a franchise, and I said as much to a group of blokes at halftime in the designated smoking section last week. They didn’t get angry, in fact they said they pitied me for paying to come all this way to watch my sch!tt team lose. I had no counterpunch. They won 😭😭😭

    Yeah I thought of a bunch of comebacks… after the event. At the time all I could think was bro’s right, I did come a long way to see a loss. I was gonna say yeah well the game’s not over yet, is it. But had I said that I just know I’d run into the same blokes after the match. 😅

    Only saw about 25 minutes of the game and only saw him 2-3 times.

    Stats were 11 disposals 6 kicks 5 handballs. 6 marks. 2 tackles.

    He’s okay. Others are starring but all MFC need is for him to stay healthy and be happy and pick the Dees. He will take time in spend two years getting his body up to rigors of AFL footy. Hopefully only have to match a bid in the 40s/50s.

    Did Kalani play down back? I saw there were no hitout so I presume they played him down in defence.

    You might want to revisit this.

    If he has what we need, why would we pick him because of his name?

    another gc17 academy freebie

    no one is saying white is a messiah, but to lose out on a father-son - especially for a father who clearly loves the mfc as much as jeff does - would be really disheartening

    if white was pick 30 and he was the 'best player available' and 'suits needs' at that selection... i dunno, mebbe like a super tall, athletic kid, who has been played key back but wants to be a ruck / forward, then... i would guess we probably WOULD pick him

    • 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?

      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.
