    Terrible skill level.

    No leadership.

    What has happened to Tom McDonald and Fritsch?! Neither are even VFL standard at present. Staggering drop in form.

    Melbournised.

    same [censored] differnet day

    Gee it's not pleasant viewing. 

    Just want to see our brand executed well ? then I'm sure I'll start enjoying the footy again, win or lose. 

    TMac is in horrendous form. He needs to be dropped or it reinforces that you can get a game based on your name and not your output.

    Hurry up and get Pruess back in. He’s about the only one who can take a contested grab in the F50. 

    This website is terrible for updating. Slow as a wet week

    T Mac and Petracca are garbage.

    Just win the game.

     

    Disposal to forward line deplorable. Hibberd's first reaction is to bomb long. Not helping Tmac or the forwards. They are starting to move ball a little beter in second half of Qtr. Back men need to lower eyes.

    There are seriously two sets of rules being officiated out there today... 

    Umpiring has been woeful

    Theres alot of confused looking faces out there... directionless/lost/unsure.  Not sure what it is but Goody needs to earn his pay at half time and tell them to fire the hell up.

    Some are going at it, too many are barely going.

    What to do with T-mac?

    Petracca is a potato. Trade him ffs.

    Apart from that horrible set shot, Petracca has looked dangerous all game.

    He’s got the yips when the pressure is on. Needs a psychologist for his goal kicking.

    We are...pretty bad

    No one leading for the return from play kick after a behind, no one leading i50

    Skill level putrid

    About the only enjoyment I’m getting is enjoying seeing Lockhart buck that trend and booing $cully every time he kicks it like a Melbourne player and bombing it long to no one in particular

    School kid stuff. Can't kick, can't handball and still to many in close at ball and no one spreading. Its not that hard !

    So basically he's a forward who *looks* dangerous but can't kick and buckles under pressure.

    Sounds like a keeper.

    Trac’s set shots are laughably bad for an afl footballer. He’s been good otherwise and has an impact whenever he is near the ball. Time to start getting him up into the midfield instead and play to his strength.

    Our set shots in general have been poor all year. We don’t seem to have anyone who can reliably kick straight. TMac did last year, but he doesn’t touch the ball anymore...

    Garlett has been dangerous. He’s generated more opportunities today than all our other forwards combined have all season!

    • 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.
