its like having an arm cut off

It is such a perfect day here in Melbourne for good footy. 

Like so many, l have learned to restrain and contain any sense of confidence. The scars of failing to do so are many and deep. 

Yet somehow l have lost my strength today. Against an  injury ridden Doggies team with the Bont (who broke my heart at Dome all those years ago) out of the side and Boyd, l sense a very big win. 

Our blokes know the score from here and know they have the talent around them. This game will be played above the shoulders and l think the boys will be determined to right their wrongs and make a statement. 

Dees by 63 (or my last scar from the Saints game will bleed me out). 

By the way, it is really great to hear so many going out of their way to attend today. It will be a small crowd but let's make a lot of noise. Good luck to us all. ?

At the MCG where we struggle and lost to the Saints just two weeks ago.

Today, aside from a a win, I want to see a modified gameplan that works on the G'.  It will take us to the next level.  Its kind of important to be able to win on your home ground.

I'm finding it quite therapeutic.

It'll be a different story on Monday when I advise the boss I need another phone.

And the ground where most of the finals/grand finals are at... HUGE problem if we don't find a way that works there, and quickly.

It's my 65th birthday today and I have to friggen work because I didn't finish what I started yesterday, so [censored] off,

What's the best radio station to listen to?

Going to the game but not sure if its possible to walk away happy. A win doesnt help our chances of making finals because I can't see us beating any teams above us on the ladder. Another game against a bottom 8 team proves nothing and the loss to st.kilda still hurts.

Yeah it does.  

Unless you meant a loss doesn't help our chances of making finals.

Charlie Spargo to earn his first NAB Rising star nomination. Will easily outdo Caleb Daniel and Razor Ray today. 

Have we got Razor again? Surely not?!

Congratulations Doc, you old fart!!  (You're just shy of 3 mths older than me!) 

Used to love you thumping the ball out of CHB to set me up for some of my goals back in the day!  We were part of a great team back then.  Here's hoping the new breed can replicate it! )


us by 68 pts

It’s ok, my wife’s family all support dogs and hate razor more than we do (and think he hates the dogs in return) so it will be quite the conundrum for ‘ol (insert favourite insult here)!

Rayza Ray was a contributing factor to the Bulldogs 2016 run into and during the finals. Loves a Bulldog. 

Never said my wife’s family weren’t completely one eyed which of course they are. Still think they got a bad run in 2016 ????‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️

Heading to the ground with my youngest (nearly 3) today for her first AFL game. She has her demon backpack packed already and is packing her snacks into little ziplock bags, never seen her so organized!

please the lords of football let her cheer on many goals and get to sing the song at the end of the game today!!! ???

My unsolicited advice: make sure she has the best day ever, even it the MFC are poo.

All good she has her flag which she will no doubt wave at every opportunity and if all else fails nothing like an ice cream to make it the best day ever for a little 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 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.
