Big second half coming up for a few players.  ANB has had 2 touches, JKH has had zero influence.  Hannan has gotten his hands on it but turned it over a little.  There are plenty of others who could lift their games, but for someone like JKH, this could be his last chance.  Kennedy and Kent, even with his average form, are waiting in the wings and he may not get another look in.

 

ANB stunk it up last week and didn't think it was possible but has been even worse this week

We won't finish bottom four. But if we don't win the next two, we can kiss any remote chance of finals football goodbye.

Bottom 4 are playing much better football than this [censored]. 

 

Kent at least presents and runs.

JKH and Hannan are plodders, nothing more.

Dumb Dumb Dumb game style...All Melb do is bomb long..never lower their eyes. We have gone backwards this year.

 

Out: Goodwin and all the other ex Essendon hacks

In: Roos and Grimes

Short memory or recent fan?

A real exhibition of fast paced, exhilarating football. The skills of both teams sublime. Essendon just looking slightly sharper. Joe Daniher is a star.

Really looking forward to backing it up in the second half. Just a great game of football.

Honorable mention to the umpires. The best umpired games are the ones where you don't notice them.

Demonland needs to start drug testing posters...

Essendon played in the wet on Tuesday.

 Any other team in the comp would come out and blow them away in the 2nd half - if we dont win this we deserve to finish in the bottom 4.

We had about 18 hours more rest than them, having played a higher-intensity game in the wet down 2 rotations (and down a further 2 or 3 sore bodies which didn't help).

There is no reason to demand a blow-out from here.

Hopefully both.


Viney had 1 disposal that qtr..

Essendon should be cheering him. He's their extra man.

We're capable of so much more and we'll lift, hopefully today.

I'm over 50 mate and this match is  disgraceful. The only good thing is Essendon are as bad as we are.

Time for some big players to have a shot at Casey in lieu of the usual fringe players.


The ball use has been shocking from both sides, first team to clean that up will win this game

I don't usually hate on Melbourne players, but Melksham just gives me so many reasons.

JKH and ANB........SFA

 

Big second half for myself.

i don't know where I'm going to find all of this extra Shyte to lose.

Kent has strength and leant get pushed off the ball... JKH loses in the contest and isn't skillful enough to compensate for this

  • 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.
