Goodwin to Max.  Take a load of your feet champ. Get behind big Preuss, see how he goes and then tell me how you two can work together in 2020

    The best thing we’ve done all year was take Max off when the game was beyond reach.

    Rest him. Play Preuss for a few weeks and then play them together as a trial for 2020 ffs. 

    Season is gone, time to experiment a bit. Reward players like JKH, drop any senior player who is not pulling their weight. 

    Goodwin needs a rocket himself.

    Take it to the bank, Gawn to have an artificial ankle relocation pioneering surgery, ( first of its type in the world) as used by NASA in the 6 Million dollar mans rebuild and will long outlive his body and continue to work still in the year 3099 :blink:

    His ankle was the size of a tennis ball last night on the news. Misso says it will be a battle this week to get the swelling down. We were told an endless amount of times last year if players felt as much as an itch it was off the track time.

    The man deserves a rest.

    surely we sit Max for the rest of the season.

    Same with anyone else who'll need surgery or has a niggle. No point making the same mistakes again and having guys getting surgery at xmas and being behind the 8 ball again.

    Couldn't care less if we played only kids to fill the team lets not risk any of our top 10 players for a nothing season.

    Why?

    It's a spained ankle mate.. 1 to 2 weeks off and he'll be fine. Its not like hes broken a bone or done any ligament damage.

    Technically a sprained ankle is ligament damage but yeah, pulling him off for the rest of the season is a bit ???

    I get the feeling Gawn will be channeling big Jimmy this week. Miraculous recovery to play Sunday.

    • 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.
