We just can't buy a goal, and every time we do Carlton go straight back down the other end and score one.

Lazy, leaderless, unaccountable footy. Not one player standing up.

I was fuming when I saw Pederson had been dropped, our entire forward structure has fallen apart today and Weideman simply wasn't the right man to come in for him.

We handball too often in the forward line and look for an easy run in goal. WHat happened to the SNAP?? THE SNAP HAS BEEN SNAPPED FROM OUR REPERTOIRE!

We really need to recruit a full forward who can Mark in pack and kick straight 

Started listening to it, feels like a time warp of the old Melbourne. 

Many of us wanted finals, if ever there was proof we aren't ready this is it. From 4 games versus Essendon, Carlton, St Kilda. 0 wins. Terrible.

The negative nancies are loving this.

It's one quarter.  We aren't going to win every one we play.  We'll be fine.

Another no-name spud kicks a goal right after the glimmer of hope. So painfully predictable.

I wish I could forget the names of most of our insipid spuds

What a sad end to a season. 

Lot of promise. But it's an F from me.

If anything has come out of today, I think it has taught us all a valuable lesson about who is in our best 22 and who isn't.

EDIT: Also, Jesse…work on your bloody kicking. You're fast turning into a rich-man's Levi Casboult.

Are we the fumbliest  team in the comp?

4 behinds in a row from Hogan and Petracca. Just throwing it away. :mad:

Hogan has no faith in his own kicking. He never looked like kicking it.

Both.  I bought 3 memberships this year.

Back in your hole.

What has happened to Jesse Hogan? :mellow:

Hes taken 13 marks on a wet day.

Not sure sure if Hogan will be the star we all hoped for, especially if the guy can't kick.

 

I've had enough of Hogan today  

He can take his attitude and his VFL level kicking and go away.

  • 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.
