Jack Martin is going nowhere.

GOLD Coast chief executive Mark Evans says the club hopes to extend Jack Martin’s contract, but didn’t categorically confirm the talented utility would be at the Suns next year.

    Although Ryan squibbed a mark both he and Rioli were important with their pressure and little bits of magic through the day today. Ryan in particular took that massive mark to be able to deliver it to Sheed.

    We need a couple badly.   You won't find too many Premiership winning teams, or even runners up, that didn't have some indigenous magic on the park.

    Lucky Ryan did take that mark or he'd be deservedly highlighted for the squib act. Lewis Jetta is a frightened rabbit too. Guess the family g & d gene missed him.

    I have never been able to tolerate shirking a contest on the footy field let alone when there is a premiership on the line. Give me blokes like Matt Whelan, Byron Pickett and Nev Jetta any day.

    Jeffy is still on our list, whether or not the magic has gone from him remains to be seen. But I do agree that I would like to see us look at recruiting a skilful fast indigenous player, there’s no doubt they seem to have some kind of magic that’s impossible to describe. 

    I’d love an Aaron Davey v2!

    There has to be one of these lurking just around the corner. We will get one, again. Davey was just a great clubman and committed player with the works.

    Must say with Kent leaving and Bugg being delisted plus Weid moving up, the VFL side from a forward perspective is looking light on

    Still very confused by he premise of the thread... 

    Are we saying we aren't trying to bring in a Luke Breust, Robbie Gray or Toby Greene..?

    I think that is illegal.

    Prius is electric, but not aboriginal, small or a crumbing forward.

    Eclectic and original?

    I’m rather surprised in view of Jeff Garlett’s rather inglorious end to the season that he hasn’t been shopped around (at least there has been no suggestion). I would have thought he might have gotten some interest from clubs like Gold Coast or Brisbane.

    Maybe he has - we are pretty good at keeping cards close to the chest nowadays, most of the time.

    • 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.
