    Draw between the dogs and the Pies

    Wouldn't IT be nice if we could open the season with two hot sides such as Brisbane and Port at the GABBA or Adelaide Oval. Or a West Coast V Richmond or Geelong game at Optus Stadium. Something different to the same old same old Richmond/Carlton predictable yawn fest.

    The GWS V St Kilda, Essendon V Hawthorn, Collingwood V Dogs games (and our game) should all be worth watching due to those games being hard to tip a winner.

    The rest of the games on paper appear to be a yawn.

    Hopefully GWS soften up the saints before we play them next week.

    Pies and doggies will be interesting. Wouldn't mind seeing the pies take a pasting and the pressure comes on buckley right from the get go.

    Haven’t made the finals in 7 years - haven’t even been close. 

    I guess the only way is up. 

    looking at their line up, I doubt they will make it again.

    So on the basis we have made it  1 year in ten years means they are  close to us.

    No doubt we have been seller dwellers also over the past decade or so. But in the last four years we have won two finals and missed finals by one game twice. 

    carlton have been 16th, 18th, 16th and 11th on the same time period.
    So not close to us

    It’s going to be sad when they beat us this year.

    Good start to the game. 

    helped by muting Jobe and BTs ‘analysis’ 

    cant wait for Sat arvo!!

    Quiet a fluent game. Not many stoppages. Both teams pinging the ball around.

    If we persist with the high bomb into the forward line Carlton will eat us alive.  Their entire game is built around intercepting the forward ball and fast transition.  It couldn't be better designed to make us look bad.

    Players moving on the mark quite a few times, no free. 

    I bet one of ours will scratch their [censored] and a free will get called.

    Anyone who thinks the blues are not on the up is kidding themselves.

    Even if they fold now, they can see they are capable of matching the best.

    Still feel we are a bit light on for leg speed watching this one

    • 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.
