Not feeling too good about this one especially after we fell asleep for half an hour last week, just like Round 1.

I wont tip us until I have reason to, and so far there is none.

North by 17, sadly.

God I hope we win this one, need to keep building momentum early in the season, confidence etc and fk off this losing streak. 

North are taking me along to the Dees Chairman’s function so hoping for a cracking day with a easy Dees win.

Who’d you tip last night, out of interest? 

As always I’ll head in hoping for the best expecting the worst (usual).

I just want to face the long commute home after beating North for once. 

C’mon Dees!

There’s an old Jewish saying I think applies here: ‘things are never as good as you hoped...nor as bad as you feared’.

I'm with you. Baring a huge brain fart it should be a good win.

Perhaps 'barring' ?

 

Just off to sleep with the alarm set so I can watch it. 

Dees by 6 goals

Perhaps just once on this forum some [censored] won't get the giggles over a typo. Perhaps.


Trac BOG.

Mathew Nicholls to remain as popular as ever with the Melbourne faithful.

Just win Dees!

First game of the season for me after being away for the first round.  So excited and really hope we smash this mob.

 

Slightly conflicted.

Daughter has a 'rock climbing' party to attend at 3:30. Right next to the rock climbing centre is a brewery with a great tap room and also a great outdoor area for kids. Wife suggests she takes daughter to party and I can spend some 'quality' time with the boy at the brewery. I'd need to record the game and enforce a complete media blackout until home...and that would also mean talking to the boy, who I love dearly, but conversations at the moment are solely about cars (Mustangs and Bugattis) and beyblades (whatever the [censored] those are).

Or, stay at home and swear at the TV in real time.

Yeah, nah. Under Neeld they were worse than I feared so that [censored] that saying up big time ?


We won’t win if any of the following occur:

1) Brown kicks at least 4

2) We concede a 3 + goal start at qtr time

3) Jacobs holds Oliver to under 20 touches

4) If both Cunnington and Higgins are in the best 5 on the ground.

I’m tipping us to win though. Not many sides win when their $3 or over to win.

Just get the wife to take your daughter to her party, and you can spend "quality time" with your son watching the game live on TV together.

You know it makes sense.

Im spending time with my daughter at the MCG (quality of said time TBA, will let you know at 5pm.) 

They put beer on tap because of what Dees supporters have had to endure.  Where I sit I cannot ‘creatively vent’ my thoughts (perhaps it is regarded as antisocial behaviour, but Ben brown really is a [censored]).  So I will either be up cheering spilling my beer over the old [censored] in the flat hat, or murmuring dark curses into my beer as I sulk.

please, Dees.  That poor bastard in the flat cap needs a beer shower.

Which Demonland regular will be the first one to melt down and make a fool of themselves if North kick a couple of goals early in the game, or hang around for a half? 


Regulation win required.... 36 points

Interesting to see how Goodwin coaches....... all the other teams can beat North so no excuse for a loss

No doubt Mr white will time his verbal diarrhea to perfection

I'm drinking a huge mug of coffee...will switch it to scotch if we drop this one.

  • 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.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    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.
