Is anyone else petrified of the prospect of  playing Geelong in a final.

This mob has bullied us into submission since 2007 and absolutely embarrassed us as a professional sporting organisation, like no other opposing club has.

And the 3 most recent matches we’ve played against them, we’ve given it our absolute best shot and still come short. Hasn’t helped that Geelong have kicked 50.22 in stupidly lucky accuracy.

And finally....Dangerfield.

I think we’re a better chance leaving the G and taking on GWS.

 

 

Hell no. 

I think Geelong is the weakest side in the top 8. They wouldn’t have even made finals if their last two matches weren’t against 2 of the 3 worst teams in the comp at their home ground. 

We should have beaten them twice this season. A bit more experience and Gawn kicking straight and we win both. 

I look forward to the redemption of beating them in finals. I loath them and I want to play them more than anyone else. 

Hawthorn and Richmond scare the crap out of me. Geelong don’t.

    Have we?

    The record books state we’ve beaten them once in 12 years.

    To be fair we haven’t beaten many teams in the last 12 years and they did win 3 flags in that time.

    Yes Jaded but their teams that won G.F's are not playing in two weeks time. Cannot wait to play them in the finals as I reckon we have them and they know it. Several cat fans at our golf club are quite worried coming up against us. BRING IT ON.

    Well we mustn't forget what the record books say! Wink

    What's up with those Lions uniforms?

    The further they stray from traditional Fitzroy, the more bollocks they look.

    Collingwood finishing 2nd on the ladder with the double chance and an travel-free path to the Grand Final is horrible thought.

    I like the Lions, but today I hope West Coast beat them and hold on to 2nd spot.

    If the Methcoast drop to 3rd or 4th do they still get a home final if we play them. 

    I believe they’ve secured 2nd.

    Ah yes thanks. The app I was using to look at the ladder was a ‘live ladder’ which I didn’t realise.

    Looks like the Pies are heading back to Optus Stadium in a fortnight.

    The Exers kicked 2 more goals than Carlton for the year. Think that might be 4 years in a row?

    • 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.
