Any update on Hogan ankle? 

That answer your question ?

 

Salen cost us all the time with poor disposal

now this is the time you tweak your game plan and take say 10% more risk ... 2 goals and the game is over

 


 

Spargo is basically what AVB was/is. Gotta feel for VB.

Spargo a smart footballer. Couldn't hit ANB bit put it to advantage.

poor first bit but great 3rd great debut by Spargo and weideman is competing better than I have seen him do before

What role as Tyson played today? He seems to be playing very deep defensively.

Really you don’t think we have it yet!? We’ve almost doubled their score!

Edited by Cassiew

How bad are essendon? We are mediocre at best they make us look good. They will be the story.

Loving having Macca back.


This is gonna be a weird fixture every year.

Correction we have doubled their score. No team has ever came back from a 3rd point margin this great

At least your banner was funny you dogs.

 

Essendon is tripe, but we fixed some problems within the game which is always a good sign, and some of the additions have played well (e.g. Spargo, Hannan).

One thing we should acknowledge is we've had a ridiculously good run from the umpires.

  • 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?

  • 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.
