    And seriously Frost! How the [censored] can u argue that [censored]!

    17-3 center clearences.. [censored] disgusting our mids

     

    That was not a push in the back free kick, btw.

    Our midfield are shocking.  BEaten in every contest, not covering dangerous opp players.

    Sheesh

    Allowing man bun stick man to kick 4 in that quarter?

    And that’s the winner. 

    Goodwin make a move. Seriously this coach! 

    Biggest fraud in the entire industry. Been saying it for ages.


    We would’ve won this game an hour ago if we could even halve centre clearances. Our centre bounce work has been pathetic.

    Clarry's finish today has been mostly shizen other than one easy short pass inside 50 that found a target.

    Seriously need to fix that or he'll be known as a ball getting beast but at the same time a turnover king offsetting the good work.

    I reckon Gus is gone.  And T-Mac also.  Time to trade both.  Seriously flawed teasers who will never take us to the promised land.

    Game over.

    Oliver, Gawn, Harmes, Brayshaw..

    All [censored] terrible!!

    I’m going to give Gawn a break. Oliver has also been horrible. Dumb handballs, unaccountable, now two way running. 

    Our midfield needs an absolute rocket. The worst performance I’ve seen from them all year, which says a lot.

    Need to have serious look at the midfield. The centre clearance stats are killing a team that supposedly has a dominant ruckman.

    Like our forward line and the gameplan it doesn't work


    How can someone that looks like that and is named Eric be dominating us like he is? Eric!

    Mate it was a clear push. Had 2 hands on his back.

    Oliver was clearly held by the arm and unable to contest the ball, but no holding the man for Melbourne players. On the other hand a Brisbane player gets brushed and wins a free kick. Rubbish, umpires.


    This is just so typical at no stage could you have any confidence. The good aspect at some stage there need to be acceptance the last seven years of rebuild has been a farce. Same mistakes happening for years it never changes. Putting aside school yard errors the over possessing of the football particularly in the middle is pathetic. Whilst Goodwin is coach expect many more years of this garbage. Being bottom three is about right.

    Stoppage coaches instructions: If we win the ball in a pack everyone stand completely still and make sure you handball to someone with at least two opponents on them. Combined iq of this club is well below average, well well below, coaches especially.

    Midfield are getting a toweling. Coach has to swing a change. Sticking a tackle in the middle might help. Max is on one leg. Couldn’t really jump for half that quarter. Not until it warmed up a bit. We shoot ourselves in the foot too often 

     

    I can wear getting beat ,but to chuck it in like some seem to be doing ps me off

    Hipwood looks like a background extra from Muriel's Wedding.

    • 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.
