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? 

"North are making us look like the Fish Creek reserves side.... I think we have the answer now as to if Goodwin can coach....HE CANT! Lever is a slow hack - 800k and two first rounders down the drain.... Easter was a week ago but the umpires are still crucifying us.... This is [censored]. I’m never following this lousy club again!! ... oh hang on Hogan just kicked one on the quarter time siren that puts us up by two points..."

im just warming up

Regulation win required.... 36 points

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

St Kilda didn't do a very good his last week ?

In Frankfurt waiting for reports.

No one here knows nor cares.

WHY CANT I SLEEP?????

GODEES!!!!!

 

I have felt worse before North games. 

I think it will be a 2 to 3 goal win. Roos won't give up easily.


Several  years ago I put a nice bottle of Barossa shiraz to one side to cellarbrate ( sic ) ‘crushing the hoodoo’.  Thanks to our abysmal record against NM, it’s now perfectly aged, and should be drinking beautifully.  I’m very confident that I’ll be enjoying it this evening, but not so confident that I'll be pulling the cork to let it breathe before around 5:00pm.  Dees by 30 points.

Bug will will have an off day with his kicking. To kick 3 goals. 

 

Gates open at 10.45am. Anyone know if there’s a curtain raiser on?

There is. TAC Cup side versus a VFL team I believe I read.

Even the Saints were with them goal for goal for a half.

North are putrid.

Sad indictment of the coaching staff that we lost to them twice last year.

Need I say it but a loss today will mean ???????

It was the fans fault ( specifically Demonlanders ) that we lost both games last year. Our expectations were too high. Let's rein it in boys and girls. Dees by 71.

 


This is not a test of skill or game plan or coaching, it’s a mental test. We should easily win On paper. Now believe in yourselves, go in hard and beat these [censored]!

winning will go a long way to us playing finals imo. People who say these hoodoos don’t affect the players are wrong

Just no fadeouts and we should be right, North will have a crack. Dees by 27.

If Goodwin is serious about a long coaching career, then it is a 6 goal win. 

The midfield must work together to starve Brown.

Me - but not on this forum. 

Well unfortunately I will be missing the game today. First one at the G in years. But my god please let this streak be over today. If we lose today tomorrows media will be wild. But im confident we will get the job done.

ah, AFL experimenting with bringing back the 2's.

North are in rebuild and are in the bottom 4 of the comp. 

I expect to win comfortably today in the back of our best 8 to 10 players. 

Hoping Nev, Hibbo and Lever can find some form and cohesion down back. 

Our mids, in particular ANB, Dom and Harmes must be more accountable defensively to minimise the easy inside 50 opposition teams have had in the last 2 weeks. 

Hoping Trac, Bayley, Jeffy and Jesse get to Eee a lot of the ball today. 

On paper, we win by 46 points. On the field l will take a win by 1 point just to break this humiliating losing streak.

  • 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.
