Wonder if this is what we're going to see all season ... pressure, pressure, pressure, lots of inside 50's, but not hitting the scoreboard, then they get easy goals down the other end. Feels like a repeat of a lot of the last few weeks.

16 inside 50s for 6 shots on goal.

Doesn't help when we miss shots from directly in front.

 
 

Tap-outs

Bellchambers 10 (4 to Melb adv, 3 to Ess adv,  3 neutral)

Pedersen 2 (2 to Melb adv)

McDonald 2 (both neutral)

Neutral 3 (no clear winner) 

To sum up we've got 6 clean clearances versus their 3 clean clearances from the ruck duels. 

 

First qtr was possibly the least attractive 30 mins of football ever played.

 

4 quarters of football please.

Is it just me but when Watts usually kicks into the forward 50, he usually hits a lead up forward?


Petracca’s getting off the chain in our forward line. Looking the most dangerous right now.

And given Bellchambers hasn't recorded a single stat other than the 10 hit outs, I think we'd have to be satisfied with the ruck situation so far (hard to say without watching, though).

Yay, kicked a set shot.

 

Now need to get back on my chair.


Godard very lazy footballer your goal champ

Good to see Joe Daniher finally displaying his normal shite accuracy today instead of pulling goals out of his arse like he usually does against us.


Do not let that Dirty Sanchez looking goof into the game Melbourne

odds Demons 1.55 others 2.45

 

What on earth was Daniher trying to do there? What a nong.

  • 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.
