To be honest Jaded he is leading with his head. It is brave but poor technique and to be honest, dangerous. Needs to change it.

If it was Selwood they'd all be saying it was courageous and talking about how many weeks the other guy should get

    It's weird, I don't feel like we are playing all that badly it's just little errors here and there that cost us.

    Felt a little bit the same and then I tried to think of who played well that quarter and I struggled to name one

    Goodwin needs to eyeball the midfield at half time, surely they can improve on that

     Dam buster alert! That quarter had way too much % time played in Brisvegas's forward half. Keep dishing up more of the same next half,  the pressure  will crack our defence wall. Some very gettable goals missed don't help.

    Brisbane worthy flag fancies. They are super.


     

    Not 15?????????????

    When the umpires department is led by incompetents, every kick looks further than 15m

    Hate to disappoint, but it's like this every match, every week. A crisis, ignored by the AFL brass because ???? who the [censored] can work out what they're thinking.

    Now that kick to langdon?, definitely 15 

    Poor choice by Weid to play on.

    Their general field kicking and work rate to get off their opponent is better than ours after quarter time.

    Just can't see us winning this..

    Brisbane are on another level unfortunately. 

    Agreed Dazzle. this is about if we fight or if we roll over

    signs aren't; good so far

     

    Oliver surprised because he's never had a holding the man free kick

    Anyone who still thinks we will win has rocks in their head.

    Their switch is epic. Either that or we’re not running very hard

    We are plodding.

    • 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.
