    And right there is the story of the game.

    The story of our team I'm afraid.

    Enough Is enough. This is junior football stuff right now. Clarry will get named in our best but the story of his game is much different 

    Deadset anyone who names him in the best is a [censored] idiot.

    Oliver gets dropped. Make it happen. 

    Richmond on one leg in the last quarter.  Goodwin will still say the last quarter was a positive.

    They need to drop Oliver or play him in the forward pocket 

    I actually said the same thing last week he looks jaded in the guts gone backwards.

    The lack of urgency from our players. That kick from Oliver. What a disgrace. He has gone completely backwards. 
     

    4 down on the bench. They are running all over us.

    He literally lay down on May's back.

    Umpires were as bad as our skills today.

    They have 3 on the bench. Stuffed and we still stuff it up 


    Umpiring been to Richmond's favour soft frees allowed to throw.

    So that goal from Lynch was Goodwin's fault, right?

    Ultimately? Yes.

    His game plan allows super quick kicks to come into our defence.

    He picked Smith when he clearly isn't ready.

    Clayton Oliver? Jack Viney? Jake Melksham? Jake Lever? Christian Salem? Tomlinson? Simon Goodwin? All auditioning for string quartet on the SS Titanic.


    When the story of this match is written lets not forget they didn't have a bench in the last

    Terrible kick from Oliver before but he's not the problem. The commentators on Fox and 7 have gunned for him all day. He's won a heap of contested possessions.

    Agree MFM. He's got huge tickets on himself and is just about our laziest player. He could be a much better footballer, but he chooses not to be.

    He's smoking his own sweat, or something else because he looks ramshackle and off his tree.

    Get Clarkson. That’s what the $mill before Christmas ? needs to be

    Otherwise we continue to be nothing

    • 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.
