There’s a great doco on TV tonight about the mating ritual of the dung beetle. Two shaftings on at the same time. Decisions, decisions........

    I'm predicting a 40 point win.

    Has Richmond caught the St kilda bug?

    Anyone want to go for a spin in my new Jag after quarter time?

    • Haha 6

    Reasons to go:

    1. Drink Beer at ridiculous prices.

    2. Have a 1/50,000 chance of winning a car, which will be 1/100,000 as I am not a young female or person that will look good in the promo material, so I actually have no chance.

    3. Catch up with mates

    4. Cheer an odd moment of Melbourne play here and there

    5. Get an Oliver cup.  Never got any of the others, I’m really stretching here...

    6.  Practice my Dali Lama calmness tolerating nuffti Richmond bogan d-heads.  Especially on the public transport home.

    Not even bothered. I’ve got the kids this weekend so I think we will watch a movie......so much less stressful.

    I will probably go just to look at the numbskull Richmond supporters. We wont win.


    I'm going to Gold Class tonight to watch Lion King with my lovely half.

    More excited to see Simba turn badass again.

    At Auskick with my oldest kid, skills here much better than Melbournes atm

    Maybe they need to enrol a few of the boys at Auskick to work on their skills?

    Would like to say I am going to enjoy the Ashes but with our luck in the umpire review stakes it is just giving me another dose of MFCSS.

    I’ll tune in tonight. 

    Until quarter time should be long enough.

    I had a dream we won tonight. Does this mean I am a passionate rusted on supporter or just plain out of touch with reality?

    Both obviously

    God help us. We are going to need it. 

     

    It is so totally understandable that the devastatingly poor on field efforts of MFC in 2019 have devastated the spirit of all MFC fans. 

    I will go tonight but l really don't know why, as l expect to get bloody annoyed at silly turnovers and even more annoyed at hearing the opposition song at the end of the game. 

    Clearly l am just another one of those that has supported this club for so long,  Disappointment has been my mood and my middle name.

    Toiges by 41, slowing down in Q4, as they have finals to play.

    I'll be watching from the comfort of my recliner in the back blocks of Canberra, and searching for evidence of 'tinkering' to our game plan, that Goody mentioned in yesterday's presser.

    'tinkering'

    I'm going tonight and I have no idea why. I fear what Lynch and Riewoldt will do to us, whichever Oscar is playing on.

    However I'm looking forward to seeing Melksham back.

    • 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.
