Gee I wish I was in Darwin to get some warm weather. Would feel more confident if this game was at the G.

I wouldn't.  We suck there and they beat us there last season.

 

Melbourne by 363 points

59.9.363

0.0.0

I did during the week. I think we're a 50 50 proposition. $6 against MFC is insane

Its tempting but then I'll enjoy the game less if we win. The alternative might be to not watch live and only watch replay if we win.

Must be a tough bugger to live in Trentham

Nice people but worst Football team I ever played against

Nah Mums tougher (Hi Dad? (he gets on here a bit))!

bloody cold in winter, so the olds are thawing out in Darwin for a long weekend ?

Players up in Darwin must be watching the Casey game thinking "thank Christ I wasn't dropped this week". Polar opposite conditions.

That’s just silly, we’d need 113,361 inside 50 entries. 

Most likely not gonna get to watch this one to my annoyance. Come on Dees. 

I will miss the bulk of the game. My wife has organised dinner out with an old friend of hers (who, frankly I don't really like ) How can wives be so thoughtless ? My next wife might be better on that score. 

 

I'm strongly considering not watching this game. Please convince me to switch it on.

I’m currently hydrating on VB and will

head off to the ground soon. There will likely  be a pub stop on route. It’s rather hot atm

Im pumped over this game. I’ve followed Melbourne to Sydney, Canberra and Darwin previously and never seen a win

I’ll break the ice tonight 

Sadly the maid remained at The Manor so my celebrations will probably be a solitary affair - still they can be quite enjoyable

Eat some “off” food immediately

Better to be home in the smallest room watching a feed than being with the wife’s friend

I'm taking care of the manor for you ( the maid let me in).

Some of your cellar needs updating so I'm helping to clear out the old stock.

Also, the maids outfit is a little bit formal for my liking so I've bought over a French frilly number for her .

Please don't barrack too loudly-you'll mozz the team as you tend to do when interstate.

Don't hurry back-just send her wages through plus some extra house keeping money.

I'll keep her busy .

How in the front doors are the Dees $1.12 to win this match? Similar odds to last week...the books are usually very switched but this one has me stumped.

Do yourselves a favour and put $50 on the purples...be happy either way...

You’re just being vindictive and trying to spoil my well earned break

”The Lads” would never allow one of your status admission to the hallowed Manor

The lads are roasting up nicely. Unfortunately someone bumped into the Merc whilst I was putting some essentials on your account at the grocer.

Freo's odds have ballooned out to $7. Ridiculous.

The last time Melbourne's opponent had odds of $7 was Round 23 last year. I think we all remember what happened then!!

Even though I'm from the Macedon ranges I'm always shocked when I visit mum in malmsbury and it's inevitably cold. 

Very very cold

Bitter has risen in Katherine 

I shall end my perilous outback odyssey in Darwin this afternoon and make a grand entrance at the football this evening 

I expect the team to be inspired by my presence and thrash those Westralians soundly!

Inn Katherine Bitter's, uncle?

 

tonight's garb, uncle ?

I have never gambled on footy, but it is seriously tempting to throw a few dollars at the Dockers.

We should win, but we should have won several times lately. 

Thats how they make there money.

  • 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.
