I haven't been able to watch all of it but I think we have a new Dom Tyson- Stretch. I've seen 3 passes direct to a Collingwood player. PLease!

    Thanks for all the updates to those who were there or who could watch on the live stream.  Much appreciated.

    Good to see a positive outing to warm up for the real stuff and to come away with no injuries or major concerns.

    I can hear the jungle drums....DON'T STAND IN FRONT OF PREUSS!!! 

    Can you imagine dropping into the gap in front of Preuss on the lead. FMD let him have it.

    Preuss and Vanders are going to have more victims than Fred and Rose.

    I like the commentators call that if he found himself ‘in the hole in front of Braydon Preuss he couldn’t run out of it quick enough’. I would do the same

    Dees Win ???

     

    Melbourne 11 - 6 - 72

    Collingwood 7 - 6 - 48

     

    Is there to be a repeat screening, we missed it due to commitments - and I am sure that others will have missed the game, as well?

    Bloke at work who plays VFL reckons Marty Hore is an absolute jet and will fit in seamlessly to the AFL game. Hopefully can hold down Lever's spot until he returns and then who knows.

    This is just an assumption, but I'd wager they may put together a highlights package of the game, such as all the goals, later on in the day.

    All looked fine. Watched them leave the ground, just looked tired

    Thanks, Wise! I'd hoped that there would be some comment and depth, including a re-screening on the MFC site.

    We have now beaten the Pies twice (out of 2) at their two home grounds in three weeks. Eddie and filth supporters must be dirty. Go both teams!

    So Preuss Rd 1?

    I'd have him in the best 22. He is dangerous and scares the shhit out of the opposition. The other advantage is that he can kick. A lock for me.

    • 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.
