Nick Robertson is 24, 190cm, is quick, has good disposal and is a handy tagger who was surprisingly delisted by Brisbane. If we can nab him, we would have a free hit at him as a Delisted Free Agent.

    I would definitely look at him.  He is a solid player and has courage bordering on lunacy.  That is from the little I have seen.

    He must have been floated for trade with no takers.  Anyone know what the knock on his?

    As  a Lions home ground Gabba watcher over his career my take would  be his only flaw is a lack of ability ie skill.

    But he ticks many boxes and is one if the most determined competitors around.

    Personally I would prefer if we chased Sam Gray or Alan Christiansen as I believe our needs in that small crumbing goalkicking forward role are  greater.but Nick R would not be a bad rookie either.

    But firstly let's persuade  JACK MARTIN of his role and need at Demonland for flair talent and class. Now we are really talkin!

    This is one of the only delisted free agents to date that’s worth picking up. Great competitor.  Tackles and works hard.  Sure limited but brings 100% to the contest.  Depth type but would be handy if needed.  Worth a 1-year opportunity for “free”.

    You got the right guy? This guy single handedly lost them the final against GWS with his horrific decision making and disposal. He is a battler and would just be plugging a hole into something else arrived.

    Reminds me of Stephen Morris from Richmond before he was delisted - hard working, mouthy, in your face, pain in the [censored] with not much else to offer..

    • 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.
