terrible if true,why bother playing a pointless game

Every club is locked down so find it hard to believe “you heard it on the grapevine” from anyone, Several teams have flown interstate under the same conditions & no one has had any complaints. Even if true ...everyone out there is living with a degree of fear & uncertainty so “poor form” to post that !!

According to 3AW there's an AFL press conference scheduled at the same time as our game.

Gil to speak 3.30pm our (Qld) time which I assume will be 1/2 time of Lions/Hawks game. Stay tuned folks.

I might be wrong but I’m pretty there’s no hotel stays on this trip.. it’s a fly in/ fly out on the same day process

Instagram stories seem to indicate they flew yesterday afternoon.


Several times last year I vented my frustrations of Oscar McDonald. He's now had one more pre-season to hone his skills. Today he'll come up against Kennedy and Darling, last time they met I remember they kicked ~6 goals as a direct result of poor performances from Oscar (out-muscled, out-marked, and out-ran).

Today is a fresh start for him, but at least, today will mark my expectations of him for the rest of the season. If he gets pants yet again I will eagerly look forward to the returns of Smith and Petty from injury.

Gill HAS to let this last game of the round to go ahead! Let us see our boys!

I think you’re correct Joeboy. I was of the belief they flew over on the same plane the freo players flew back on. And then fly back after the game.

How much do we need to win by to finish on top? 

Just have to score 2.63 times as much as WCE.  No worries.

So i signed up to Kayo to watch a single match over 2 months today. Damn ?

I hope to god we win or i wont even bother with the replay.

 

 

Pity the poor Aussies who wont have a job in a weeks time.

    Yeah but what if a key player goes down with a serious injury. Yes it can happen anyway but I'd be devastated if a player went down with a serious injury. 

    Seriously the person started this virus has a lot to answer for

    Yeah, don't care about the game at all now. Couldn't care less if we win by 100 or lose by 100.

    Far more important things going on in our country to worry about than footy. Put it on the back burner and focus on those who are ill, at risk and struggling for work. Get everything right first. 

    I hope everyone on Demonland is doing okay during this tough time. Let's make sure we all stick together here. Love you all.

    They haven't called off the rugby yet so I'm keeping it but once that goes I'm cancelling.

    In the same boat Wise, hope the traffic on here continues for a while even if it’s just to give someone a bit of a smile for a few seconds.

    I'd be expecting payment from Kayo to actually watch rugby.

    6:40 is such a late start. Still can’t believe the AFL scheduled the game for this time considering what we all know about Perth’s weather this time of the year. 3:40pm Perth time? Sun will be absolutely peaking! 

    But we’ll still get up, so...

    ??

     

     

     

    Its 31 degrees in Perth at the moment. Easterly blowing with a little bit of cool air now and again. Not too uncomfortable and cooler by the river.

     

    Will be interesting to see how the players respond knowing this will be their last game for quite a while.

    • 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.
