High level summary

  • There are 29 comments similar to this: Melbourne are sh*t and will struggle to make the eight.
  • There are 239 comments that bag their players and coach.

Jesse

  • Melbourne screwed us big time. Pick 6 and 23 was way overs for what Hogan had produced to then, regardless of how he performed for us.
  • Anyone hear the Melbourne guy on the purple reign pod the other day? He said Hogan was a good player to sneak in the back for cheap goals even at his best, and that if he was a freo fan he would have been disgusted that we paid the price we did for him, even back in 2018.
  • That Hogan trade in the end will have cost us a premiership. That draft was the best in years and we skipped it.
  • There’s talk it could be the best draft of all time.
  • Hogan would have been handy today.

May

  • We were out positioned and out marked all game. May and the other bigs too good. Other than that both teams need to improve significantly to threaten the top 8 this year.
  • Schultz smashing May was quite fun to watch, May putting him in a soft headlock afterwards, talk about a bruised ego.
  • May is one of those players that dishes it out (his tribunal record attests to that), but not good at taking it.
  • Our midfield lacks class and run on the outside. Resulting in May and Lever dominating the air.

Max

  • Meek admirable but Gawn was just way too good.
  • Great effort by Meek, didn’t do too much but neither did Gawn. Played his role against the best ruck in the comp.

. . . and so on and so forth

  • Shocked to be writing this but Goodwin out coached Longmuir. At selection, strategy and during the game.
  • It was 2016 level bad. Thankfully it was only against Melbourne who are also a bucket of sh*t.
  • Yeah we just pumped life back into Tom McDonald.
  • Fyfe is making no impact as a forward. It’s a waste.
  • They scored about 10 goals from turnovers.
  • Death, taxes and a sh*t Freo attack.
  • We made Melbourne look good today which says how bad we really are.
  • Henry was outpointed by Jetta whom is a very good small defender.
  • Im going to say this quietly, we looked a lot better when Hamling and Pearce went off injured.
  • “Just had a bad day” 6 years
  • At Freo coaches come and go, head fitness guys come and go, trades come and go, draftees come and go but since the end of 2015 nothing has changed long term to make us a more competitive side. This is looking like a perpetual rebuild at this moment so only another 5 years to go and we will make it to 9th on the table.
  • One positive from today- Treacy has just kicked his 3rd goal in the first quarter playing for peel against Claremont.
  • Melbourne probably being harder for longer, that really felt like a game we coulda/shoulda won. So many wasted opportunities in the 1st and 4th qtrs when we had all the momentum.
  • *6 goals in a half. FFS... this is so "Freo".
  • Good thing we are doing the extra skills training. It's paying dividends.

This graphic says it all. Our best were better, our bottom half of the team just killed us.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • 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.
