    It hasn’t been in the forward line for him to a) kick goals b) defensive pressure

    Lol Pickett, does nothing but give away frees. Cant believe we've likely essentially paid more than pick 1 for him.

    That's the way guys, let's get stuck into the 7th gamer when all of our core leaders are playing poorly.

    Nothing like paying 2 first rounders and 750k a year for an OMac clone 

    You muppet, he's possibly one of about 2 of our players who are playing well.

    30-10 hitouts yet we're behind in clearances.

    Yes our mids our woefully out of form, but Max needs to learn how to give an effective hitout. Better off doing the old Jeff White thump it 30 meters forward instead of just dropping it at the feet of the opposition.

    If Goodwin sees out his contract, he will be Melbourne’s last coach.

    Pickett has to stop that stupid push in the back.

    That and spraying kicks from 30 out wide of the goals are his only attributes.

    I can’t wait for the excuses from Goodwin and his apologists

    Look for the silver lining.

     

    At least the coach will finally be torched by the media this week. Just in time for us to play bottom placed Adelaide, where we will enjoy an uninspiring 10pt win, or a soul destroying loss.

    This is as bad as anything from 2019.

    Utterly pathetic.

    I would say worse, hardly any injuries new fitness boss, still a sniff of finals ( clearly not any more ). This is pathetic.

    23 inside 50s to 7 since quarter time.

    We've been inside 50 7 times in nearly a half of football. Disgraceful.

    Goodwin will say it’s all a learning process. 

    It’s a spanking.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
