Must have a good coach if we can still win when we are as terrible as the matchday thread would suggest.

Demonland logic:

Round 1 2020: 26 point loss in Perth = season over, we are terrible

Round 1 2021: 22 point win at the G = season over, we are still terrible.

 

Not perfect, but plenty of positives.

 

Pretty much what I expected. An uninspiring win against a severely undermanned Freo. May and Lever will keep us in many contests this year.

A Round 1 win is welcome but none of the other teams will be shaking in their boots watching that performance.


In the 8!!

Go you demons!

 

Steven May and Jake Lever were incredible really. As good as I've ever seen from a defensive duo in our colours. 

Won that purely on talent rather than workrate.

Clearances/stoppages and defensive running by mids still a massive issue.

Lot to like about our next generation though, thought Jordon was great, Sparrow cracked in hard all day, Kozzy was a sparkplug, and Rivers and Jackson showed snippets.

Lever sensational, as was his partner May. Great to see TMac find a patch of form too.

ANB and Spargs leading the way for inside 50 delivery, but need their team mates to take notice.

A front-running win.

Got the job done. Will benefit from Viney, Weid, Ben Brown etc being back. Might expect Brayshaw to improve in the coming weeks given his impacted preseason.

Spargo was good to see today. Jordon very solid debut.


4 points. Move on to next week.

Lever has improved out of site. I was his biggest critic but he's really come on


I think we’ll improve. The skills were poor but the intent was good. 
 

Concerned about clearance after watching the Dogs and now Freo smashing us. Once a strength.....

Missed viney IMO without may and lever we lose that game and spargo I thought was really good for all the haters, May bog

  • 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.

  • 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.
