Why cant this club stay away fro m this type of  Bu$%*hit  promotion  Adds nothing to the club and diverts attention

Concentrate on Playing and training for the next Game

Carlton will not be easy and we need to put 100 % effort in to beat them

Yeh too right. The last thing our sponsers and club want is exposure to a national audience on the highest rating show on TV. 

Fools. PJ is really losing his touch.

    I don’t care for all you wet blankets. I love Masterchef and I love Melbourne.

    I can’t wait to watch it tonight to the subtle background groans of my boyfriend who thinks everything I watch on tv is garbage.

    Haha oh Jack. There’s always one.

    I’d love to know how this is a ‘diversion’. 

    Mass exposure to an audience that otherwise wouldn’t see the MFC, great work by the club.

    If we lose this week though it will definitely be down to that over cooked steak 4 months ago...

    Tend to agree. I'm one of those old fashioned types that prefer to see our players as footballers not entertainers.

    To use a Masterchef idiom:  they are the garnish and not the hero of the dish.  They wander in, scoff some grub, and Jonesy says “tastes good, dunnit?”  Rest of the show is about short pockets angry George, look away and I’ll eat you Matt and totally irrelevant Gary yelling at the poor bastards, and some cooking in between watching people rush around for no reason and recaps.

    This will be the show that reveals how Jack Watts lost the trust of his teammates. First he asks if there is a sommelier on set. Then, speaking of the pea soup, that he was expecting an element of surprise, but was let down by its pervading ordinariness. Of the steak and chips, that it was abstract but rarely obvious, and used too much tomato sauce. Of the bread and butter pudding, that it was emotionally complex with a hint of eroticism, but ultimately let down the taster by not having any real link to the the active perception it is signifying.

    Footballers will tolerate a lot, but not that.

    Gee people chill, it's just a challenge on a cooking show. Its a challenge at the mcg. So of course they would get us. I bet if they got the pies people would be on here saying why didn't they get us. It's our ground. 

    Im a tad surprised they didn't get Richmond,  but as it was filmed last yr they were busy with finals.  Anyway just enjoy it.

    So you don’t regard football as entertainment, but rather as a metaphor for life’s struggles?

    Just watched 2 minutes of this show.Horrible.Have not watched it before.Is it George Caloumbaris yelling at contestants? Why?Because it’s a bullying work environment.I was a TAFE teacher and 30 years ago l had a student retraining to get of cooking because of the bulling workplace he was in .

    • 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.
