Will the Weid take out the title?

It was nice of him to give the other guys a 4 game head start.

    If Weid had played from round 1 like he bloody should have then he would easily be winning our goal kicking. 

    Actually don't be surprised if he does. In good form.

    I've been wondering if there's a little bit of Brayshaw of 2018 about his season. Out of the side until he genuinely earns his spot then comes in and plays his best footy

    Hes third or fourth  in the AFL in goals per game.  if he had played all season he would be up there with the Coleman leaders.  Wouldn't that be something.

    Its so awesome to see his improvement, theres nothing better than seeing a big young forward come into their own and start clunking marks and kicking goals.   He will snag 5 or 6 in a game very soon.

    One thing we haven't seen is Petty and Weideman up forward. I rate Petty's body of work as a forward last year and if its one thing he has over Weid its his one touch grab.

    Jackson, Petty, Weideman. A potential good forward line to build around.

    Like what the Weid has bought since he has come back into the side.  Plenty of aggression, attack on the footy and is starting to look dangerous.

    He's normally a very good set shot for goal which is one of his strengths, I just wish that he had nailed one of his multiple shots on goal against the Lions a few weeks back.  I think the wind down there at Carrara was a bit tricky, but if he's going to be a gun forward, kicking set shots with a bit of wind and/or under pressure needs to be bread and butter stuff.

    Look forward to see where he can get to over the course of the rest of the season with some continuity and hopefully no more major injuries.

    If he’s playing good consistent footy, the filth will have a crack when the opportunity arises.

    You can back that in.

    Every time Eddie mentions him he starts creaming over the Collingwood “heritage” !

    Not to take away from Weids recent form, I have a feeling Jackson will be a better player.

    Here is hoping these 2 can be another famous fwd combination in the years to come.

    • 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.
