That's what happens when you fire in every which way, one of them is bound to hit eventually

    Every year is an opportunity missed not only to challenge for a flag, but to attract quality, to keep players happy, coaches happy, supporters on board and finance in order.

    It's a snowball effect and if we have indeed missed out on him it's a big loss.

    meanwhile Mark Stevens & Tom Browne ch7 colleague barely 24 hours earlier felt he was a good thing for re-signing @ the pies. Wonder what they'll say in the next 24 hours? 

    Exactly.

    No point getting emotionally invested in anything during trade time- it either changes by the hour or was never true to begin with.  It’s basically the bachelor.

     

    Enjoy the drama and conjecture of it all!

    Or just switch off completely until the end of it.

    He'll be back soon enough espousing a must trade for a back pocket player.

    @Demonland will have to get a restraining order out on the guy, wow. 

    Anyway...for Browne to say we’ve resigned ourselves to not getting Elliott it sounds to me like he’s spoken to someone at the club. Or maybe he’s just talking out his [censored]? Who knows, we’ll know soon enough I suppose.

    Elliott's brother lives there and saw somewhere they are going on holidays together. Maybe just a visit to hear what the Lions are offering?

    He’s heading off on a vacation today or tomorrow so it makes complete sense to go and see their facilities before he goes away.

    You cannot be serious Charlie Spargo compared to Jamie Elliot??

    Well Typical MFC Cannot lure real talent!! Just typical!

    Charlie Spargo will be 10 x the player Jamie Elliot is, that is unless Elliot accepts our offer.

    This will be the last big contract of his career- he would be negligent not to.

    Maybe a nice Demonland group activity could be to go down to Goschs Paddock this summer and build a dunny together. 

    do we put this activity on hold now?

    Absolutely. I’ve heard his hamstrings are done and when he’s in rehab he likes a beer. Bullet-dodged Neo from Matrix style.

    When he toured our ‘facilities’ he brought his dog and it dropped a turd in the middle of the paddock, he knew then and there he wasn’t coming to us.

    “As The Age reported on Saturday, the Demons launched their bid for Elliott weeks ago while Fagan met him recently. The Lions reportedly had used their injury-free run in 2019 as a selling point to the oft-hamstrung forward.”

    Umm ok. We got lucky with injuries this year, it's bound to happen next year too. ?

    Don't both clubs share a car park? Would be bloody awkward for him if so. Maybe building another car park and wall to keep out the undesirables first on the agenda...

    So has he made a choice yet or are we just wrist for nothing?

    Whatever his choice we should be happy they fenced off the West gate bridge

    Tom Browne on 7 reporting that we're "resigned to the fact we're not getting him"

    Mark Stevens also said he had signed at the Pies yesterday.  They don’t know

    Whatever, it IS TIME WE DODGED ANOTHER JIM TILBROOK-LIKE BULLET. REMEMBER?  KELVIN T, GEORGE LAKES, AND ALL THOSE OTHER SEMI MESSIAHS WHO TURNED INTO DUST AND BULLDUST BEFORE OUR EYES.

    Also a reminder to the players and the so called leadership group.

    • 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.
