Collingwood could not play this well again next week just as Richmond could not plat this bad. Only with Richmond we will never know. Game over.

    Nah... [censored] form, never want to see injuries. IF we make it through to next week I'd like to see both teams at as close to full strength as possible

    How in the world was that defensive miskick, in a side trailing, deemed deliberate.

    Seriously, the bloody maggots have zero feel for the game

    Martin 18 disposals, 2 marks, 1 tackle, no score.

    Caddy 10 disposals, 1 mark, 3 tackles, no score.

    Edwards 10 disposals, 0 marks, 4 tackles, no score.

    Castagna 6 disposals, 2 marks, 2 tackles, no score.

    Cotchin's had 23 but how many turnovers?

    Rance was flogged by De Goey and Cox early.

    Nobody saw this coming.

    Apparently according to MMM

    I was listening to it on the radio and it’s what they said was happening. 

    Collingwood have been very impressive. Cox scares me. I just can’t see how we stop him. He destroyed us last time we played them too.

    Cox is a confidence player, stop him early and he will have minimal  impact and big part of that is pressure in the mid, where we currently excel.

    Stop allowing cox a free run and jump, realize he's their go to for a contest and crumb off and it cuts 4 goals out. Defensive Collingwood have set up like a diamond staying close enough to an opponent but down the line where they can converge and out number. Like west coasts's defensive set up and tigers failed against them too.

    Pies are playing great footy. 

    8 contested marks from Cox. No way to stop him.

    Got to beat West Coast first.

    If we do, Frost will likely have done a good job on Kennedy. And we didn't have Frost on Queen's Birthday.

    Cox was also putrid against West Coast and GWS. He got his confidence up early but keep him quiet early and he's back to being a giraffe. It's feast or famine with him.

    Collingwood didn’t play Moore because he was under an injury cloud

    Richmond played Martin.

    QED

    Seeing Bucks’ smug face makes me sick. 

    I hate this team so much. Please please please let us win tomorrow, because honestly West Coast are no chance. 

    We are the competition’s last chance of saving the world a Pies victory.

    The footage of the McGuires just made me do a sick up in my mouth.

    I can not wait to beat these pricks next week.

    This is a good result for us

    Its astonishing that bucks is taking pies to a GF after so many demmanding he go.

    Richmond finished 13th in 2016, their supporters wanted Hardwick gone but they kept him, premiership 2017.

    Collingwood finished 13th in 2017, their supporters wanted Buckley gone but they kept him...2018?

    • 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.
