Sad. He does look like he has some good footy in him, but he is one of those goats who when they get scared they fall down "dead".

Although I forgot Seedsman was part of it too, he's been pretty good for the Crows.

I agree, but i think we'd be extremely happy with the outcome of that particular trade in any case.

Toumpas is hopeless.

 

I feel bad for the kid as he's obviously a hard trainer, seems like a good bloke, but he's not an AFL level player.

I feel bad for us, that we could have had another good player on the list with pick 4. 

Feel sorry for Toump. Unlike the Mortons, Gysberts and Sylvia's Toump was actually one who worked hard off field and tried his best when wearing the red and blue.

It just simply didn't work out. We all move on.


Hinkley might go rummaging out the back for a green vest.

You're a tool, we were simply commenting on the way the Toump is playing, in an around the league thread. 

No one suggested we trade Clayton Oliver to get him back.

You are the Tool, Goose! Read some of the posts... Poor Jimmy Toumpass pr pr pr , doesn't seem out there, knows he's not good enough et al

sheeit this makes me sick! 

Let's get a bit tougher with our appriasals eh!?

And don't go putting words in my mouth "Trade back Clayton Oliver" 

What inhalent are you on!!??

Edited by picket fence

Norf still on top. Revisiting our game against them......it was a great effort against a side that is playing good footy. A game at their home away from home ground with some very suspicious umpiring. I hope the tiggers think they are playing dees of last year. Two in a row here we come.

What's wrong with commenting on an opposition player in a thread about games going on that don't involve the MFC? 

Did Jimmy run over your dog or something picket? the only soft person involved in this conversation is the hero who doesn't wish a good young kid well, he was bought in as an early pick, thrown in early and it hasn't worked out, that's life, we've addressed our recruiting issues, i have no issues with Toump whatsoever and always have and shall continue to wish him well at Port. 

But i am very happy to have Kennedy at 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.
