spargo is so overrated here 

He is one player that has a red hot crack every time he is in which is more than you can say for others but he is just too small and limited which is a shame

    And JKH hasn’t been as bad as some say. Can see some of Neville Jetta in him. Could be our next small defender.

    I've got my annual Breaking Bad rewatch on one channel with the Dees on the other (muted of course). Far less stressful. Some kind of zen has come over me since last week, clearly.

    We're playing poorly, so is Adelaide, but we're worse. Adelaide is seriously average, and if we lose this, so are we.

    Oscar McDonald versus Jenkins is a comedic battle.

    We can win this. Midfield must dominate more.

    Nothing like Nev. 

    Not strong in the contest

    Not strong over head

    Literally [censored] himself if he has the ball and there is opposition within 5 meters

    Cant kick

    Only still in it because Adelaide are so ordinary. Any half decent tem would be 6-8 goals up already. I'm officially over Garlett, delist. Petracca is the ultimate built like Tarzan plays like Jane, not a footballers [censored]

     

    Oscar is doing quite well considering Jenkins is a lot stronger.

    Brayshaw, Oliver, ANB, TMac and Gawn are our top 5 players so far. Hard fought match, we are right in this.....fighting hard Dees. Good to see.

    [censored] you Melbourne with your [censored] typical shot on goal on the siren. 

    [censored] your tackling. [censored] your softness. [censored] your defensive efforts. Argh!!!! 

    We’re not playing well but effort is there. Had we kicked straight we’d be in front so relax. A lot of nerves out there, ball is hot and slippery

    So lucky.  We were so fumbly and rushed.  They dominated us in the first.  We should not still be in it, but we are. Maggots-my god they are one sided.  Gotta switch up at half time

    We might get investigated for tanking playing JKH, Smith and Spargo.....

    Everyone's complaining about JKH, Garlett, Spargo, and Smith. I'm over here wondering when Jesse Hogan is going to show up.

    Umpires setting a new standard for worst umpiring of the year.  Two first half goals to the Crows from marginal RUBBISH, Zero to us.  That deliberate out of bounds against Smith was a shocker, has been half a dozen worse sense from Adelaide that haven't been paid and in front of goal.  This stuff really makes me mad.

    Hogan's trade value decreasing with each week.

    I feel like we were on top for most of that quarter, Adelaide got gifted a couple of goals from the umps and we missed some very getable opportunities (JKH, Harmes, Garlett). 

    But certainly Max came into the game more, as did Brayshaw, Clarry, and Petracca (although he wasted it a couple of times). 

    We’re well and truly in it, but we’ve got to start taking our chances. Kicking goals is how you silence the crowd. 

    Are we 10 goals down and I am unaware? Any positives? It’s a tight tough game. We are having a crack. They look better structured forward and moving the ball out of stoppage are cleaner than us. Well in it if we get cleaner and take our chances as they tire. If we are going to be critical Jones and Hogan need earn their pay in the second half. Both been poor.

    Spud vs Spud makes for a fascinating contest.

    With how our tackling is going, maybe it’s time to try Vanders. I can’t imagine he’d be worse than Tyson who is like a snail out there.

    • 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.
