    Is it too soon to give Clarrie a 9 year contract (ala Franklin)?

    Pay him whatever, organise him a part time job at a box making factor, and give his girlfriend a job as well!

    Had a read of the Herald Sun today (very rare) and looked up the votes for the dees game. 

    3. Petrecca

    2. Harmes

    1. Crouch 

     

    I was shocked especially as Gawn was 4 off the lead. The vote giver must of been the Adelaide correspondent who is a crows supporter and only watched them. I wouldn’t have petrecca in my top 5-7 and Harmes played well but not second BOG

    I was baffled by those votes too.

    Petracca??? Did they spell Oliver wrong?

    Harmes I can understand, he killed Sloane then Gibbs with a broken hand.

    The coaches could split them actually.  One coach gave Gawn 5, and the other gave Oliver 5.

    They only noticed Harmes because they killed one of their players... I don’t notice Adelaide players (maybe Keith and Cheney who kept stopping our fwd thrusts) but I’m not a journalist... pretty poor if you ask me

    Lol - what did Crouch do other than get smashed by our dominant midfield?

    Demonland 2018... how this place has changed.

  • Quote

    That's an extraordinary effort by Patrick Cripps. In our recent past when we were down the bottom, we had no-one anywhere near the top in any awards. It's reminiscent of how Flower stood out in a barren field throughout much of his career. 

  • Quote

    It's a significant achievement for Gawn to be (at this stage) the best player in the league by the coaches.

    Even with him leading this, I am actually expecting the Grundy will get the All Australian ruck gig.

    • 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.
