I reckon you could have just stopped at your first line mate ;)

Probably! Just going off what I saw in the final minutes. Clearly we've been very good the rest of the time which is great.

Smith needs to tidy up his kick, as does Nifty. Very sloppy that quarter.

Smith was reading the play very well though but as you say, disposal needs to improve.

    Jones, Hogan, Jetta and Petracca. Not one tackle between them to half time. 

    Suns haven't had much of the ball

    Darleks “Exterminate “

    You’re right... I stand corrected and apologies to ProDee for ever doubting him ?

    Good stuff so far but start the game again and do the same thing. Go for the kill 

    I love him, but Jetta with 2 terrible and lazy kick turnovers straight to the opposition in that quarter would have normally turned into definite goals against a decent opposition. Time to smarten up and take this game seriously.

     

    Come on, boys. Third quarter is our quarter.

    very tough conditions. sitting in afl members and the wind is strong and swirly.

    Fancy that, I was told I should’ve read the forecast and it’s an enclosed stadium. Luckily we’ve kicked straight so far but I want to rip their throats out so they fold as a club

    Max. Hand it off. You’re not in the side for your precision kicking.

    For the love of god stop turning the ball over ffs.

    Maybe they should merge with Hawthorn? 

    Very lazy since half way through 2nd. Don’t like this 

    Good lord we can butcher the ball in the forward half.


    Sounds like we have kicked the ball over the head of every leading forward

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
