Amazing how many dumb footballers we have always trying to take the tackle instead of giving off first option.

We are a [censored] joke

    A lot of angry people here tonight...

    To be fair, though - it's a BIG ASK for 17 to beat 15th on the ladder. Clearly daylight between these two teams!

    And people shot down my thread about needing a rebuild. Love for those people to tell us now where our improvement is going to come from.

    Does the presence of his best mate, Jarred Roughead, in the crowd tell us that maybe this is Lewis’ last game in Melbourne?

    Yep, and Roaming Brian before game was a bit of a giveaway

    These players checked out a month ago , can’t wait for season to end.

    All that effort the last two seasons to rebuild our credibility, we are now a laughing stock again.

    3 goals in a half of footy, at home, against 15th on the ladder is pitiful.

    Yet we beat them earlier in the year.

    So, I'm not generally in the "sack Goodwin" camp, although I do think he's under massive pressure, but can someone explain something to me?

    Why pick one of the smallest teams ever, and then make the game plan slow and long down the line?

    It is the logic that is Goodwin.

    And that sums it up, but by all means blame the coach

    Poor efforts all round but at the end of the day he has to cop his share of blame.

    That worries me even more. We've gotten worse (remembering we had to 'gel' and get fit after not playing much footy in the off season).

    I know what you're saying, but our position is set in stone.

    This is a disgrace, completely ignoring basic structure as an AFL head coach.

    Really are we surprised with the team we have out there?

    4 midgets and we bomb it high and can’t stick a tackle.

    Very predictable.

    • 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.
