One of the commentary team in the Saint v Dons game... St Kilda will be equal 9th if they win today... They'll be 12th.

It was that f wit Dddeeerrrrwayne Wussell.

Realised who the [censored] was.

 

Cant believe im gonna say this but go Bom......   no, i just cant do it.

 

The Scott brothers and their god awful unlikable teams are about to occupy 6th and 8th spots on the ladder.  May they continue to fall.

North could go into freefall ... they have a tough run home without 1 guaranteed win ... they'll probably beat the Saints & Pies but Port,  the Hawks, Doggies, Sydney & the Giants are all tough games. 

The trouble is that there isn't a team outside of the 8 who can realistically replace them ... unless the Demons can go on a run of '87 like proportions :ph34r:

They'll be 7-8, same as Port, us and Collingwood, and therefore equal 9th on points. Not sure what your point is...?

His point is that you can't be equal anything as percentage is always factored in. So saying you are equal ninth is a moot point.

And Dwayne Russell is a [censored] I think was another point.


Let the Fall continue.

Can't wait to see Scotts sookie blubbering face at the conference

God I'd love to front up against north again now.

That and the Essendon game has cost us dearly.

Yep we would be right there ready to pounce...

Still can be done but a huge outside chance

You're never equal any spot on the ladder, you're clearly 9th, 10th etc based on %. They are 20% points behind us.

And yes Dddeeerrrrwayne is a c.

Our game vs Essendon was bad, but the Saints are deplorable. At this stage of the season they have a tired depleted list full of top ups and anyone that doesnt smash them is kidding themselves.  Even Zharakis is out today.

How would you like to be the comedian at the Scott twins family reunion 

After every punch line they'd throw their arms in their air then put both hands on their head and shout out "that's not how it goes! It was Reagan who said that to the pope!!!" Then mid week they'd call the booking agency and demand you be sacked.

I'd love essendon to beat the saints so they don't get the no.1 pick this year. 

 

But I'm not sure I want to be paying the saints coming off a loss. 

 

Thoughts?

They'd be just as fired up as we were after our Ess game. Which proved to be a hell of a firestarter for us.

But what the hey. Let's go for the triple whammy in one week. Etihad, Saints, and a team coming off a loss. Three hoodoos beaten in one.

We've actually done well in those match-ups this year.

Collingwood was coming off a bad loss (St Kilda first, Port second) both times we beat them. Richmond was coming off a big loss to West Coast. Fremantle was coming off a disaster. Brisbane and Gold Coast have largely been coming off losses all year.

Indeed, we haven't beaten anyone coming off a win this year (North, Dogs, Hawthorn, Adelaide).

The Media are talking up Melbourne and Collingwood as possibilities to make the Eight.

Channel 7 suggested Norfs run home might be too tough.

We are 3 games behind them.

I can't see it happening.

Hogan could break Fred Fannings record if Delaney stays in the team... He is an absolute potatoe.

Also good to see Membrey having his good week this week, surely he cant towel us up twice in a season

I can't either, but gee it's good to be part of the discussion at this point of the year.  It's a much better talking point than already fussing over what player we want to draft.

So conflicted about this match. Don't like either team, don't want to be the only team that loses to Essendon this year, but don't want to face St Kilda the week after they lose to Essendon. 

Similarly, don't want St Kilda to win because they'll be a game clear of us if they win next week (and we all know our form after NT games, at Etihad and against St Kilda -- the triple threat).

Look,

We are nowhere near a top 4 side,but we are coming.

The improvement has been immense.Roos has done his job.

ups and downs accepted.

Sure a good time to be a demon supporter.

Bombers about to put the sword to St Kilda. Continues the trend of the Demons playing teams on the rebound...yay.

There are fewer sights more heartwarming in football than seeing Goddard lose.

Hope it is an energy sapping draw. Don't want either of these sides to win.

I'd rather not be the only losers to the drug cheats this year.

And if the Saints lose, they won't jump us on the ladder after their inevitable victory next week. Best of both worlds! ^_^

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
