Could without the Commentary from the DH Adelaide supporter!

At least we know he's going to go home unhappy while we are laughing.

Can we talk about how bloody good Tyla Hanks is?! Her decision-making and execution is outstanding. She would be leading our b&f and is now one of the best players in the league. So smart and clean.

Most spirited performance in a Dees jumper since Elim Final v Geelong 2018. 

Thoroughly enjoyable to watch. 

Good call.

That simply has to inspire the men's team.

Who would have thought ten years ago a women's dees team would be showing a men's team want getting angry is reallt all about.

Go dees

Love how she shrugs a tackle. A natural footballer. Great balance.

 

Great win against a top 4 side. Should make the finals now 2 games and percentage above the Bulldogs. Hore, Lampard, Hanks, Mithen and Zanker sensational.


Best

Hanks. Footy IQ and skills are a step above everyone else’s 

L. Pearce. Looks like she is working out what she is capable of. Lots of touches around the ground amd that mark and goal in the square was fantastic 

Zanker. Hats off to Stinnear for putting her in the centre square rotation. Too big and strong for opposition mids to deal with. If she could just hang onto her marks she could be anything

Gay. It is a great situation to be in when your 4th option mid gets 20 disposals, 3 marks and 5 tackles. Also one of our top half dozen kicks in the side

Paxman. Paxman game. Takes the right option

Sherriff. I was surprised by how good she was. Really reliable defender

Hore. Thought she was a bit lucky with the free kicks but they were there and she kicked 3 goals

Great team effort overall

Destroyed em 

Great win girls, great team effort, every player contributed in one way or another 

Hanks and zanker are dead set stars and will be for a very long time 

Mcnamarra star in the making 

Magee big step forward, has major upside

I just commented to a markc‘ s daughter I wish the men would play with that sort of heart!

That was Swooper Northey era type footy.

Those Irish have strange names.  Sinead Goldrick-Only-Knows-One-Direction.

Do you think she’s any relation to all those brothers One Direction?

I am wondering why we are not talking to the Irish girls about recruiting more players from Ireland. Every women's team seems to have 2 or 3!

Outstanding win by our girls!  Played with true Demon spirit, and worked as 'one' with desire, courage and intensity.

The "your joking umpire" or "no way".

Was definitely watching a different game to me! Binman will remember the game at Etihad when I had the pleasure of his company on.level 3 with a feral Bulldog supporter giving a running commentary also.

Glad to hear that you were the game on Monday Binman. After that snap by Bont they just had to remind us of the snap to win on that day also.

Loved the podcast. Great work

What a fantastic evening that was at the footy. There was one way to describe how the girls played this evening and that is the old saying of guts. Plenty of it. Adelaide are a strong side who move the ball quickly but our girls never gave them room and tackled fiercely. If I was Goodwin I would sit the senior side down this week to watch that performance.

I can't think of a bad player for us with maybe Cunningham struggling in the wet. Having said  that Pearce and Zanker were 2 talls who were close to BOG. However I have to give that title to Hanks. She is a superb player. Paxman ( as always )' Gay and Hore were fantastic but I really liked the game of Lampard and Heath. They were terrific in defence.

My coopers pale ale is tasting really good now.

That was a great win in the context of the season and in our history.  To the Casey Sh. 18 doubters please keep the faith, she is getter better and better.  And Zanker to the middle has been such a positive, thanks Mick.   Speccy Magee's best game too.  Hanksy is such a gun and was ripped off with that 'goal'.   Our Girls played with real spirit tonight and it certainly lifted mine !

Yep, the blokes should be watching that performance. Hard gut running footy. Great tackling and pressure acts like that wins every time.

Really proud of the women tonight. I think they would have mentally scarred the crows tonight.

Ive always thought our poor skills are one of our main problems for the men. But watching this game just reminded me how important agression and pressure is.

Just awesome.

I really love the buy in from the Irish girls, they look to be really enjoying the game and the camaraderie. Likewise; it's evident how they are seen by their team mates.

There hasn't been a lot of comment regarding Lily Mithin's game and I don't know if that's because we just expect her to do what she does or because some people have an "opinion" of her. Pound for pound I don't think I've ever seen a more courageous and tenacious player (apology to Lord).

Great team win tonight.
Zanker and Hanks awesome.
Gotta say though .... Cunningham is hopeless.
Have only seen her do a couple good things over several years of footy.

On a side note.
My anti-football missus had no option but to watch as I wouldn't let her have the remote.
Later in the game she declares "There are alot of pretty girls in your team."
Me - "Ahhh ..... Yes there is." Lol.

Loved the game...the intent & the joy they have in playing !! Great win !!

Same.
The skills might not quite be there with the womens game but the competitive spirit sure is.
Love watching them play and seeing their enjoyment of the game.

Great win by the girls, really team effort with a few standouts already mentioned.  Playing with purpose and a plan for the wet too.

Looking forward to seeing them live next week in Perth.  They'll come over with confidence in their system.

  • 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.
