How can it not be Bulldogs vs Dees even if we're both not 10-0. Unless the wheels fall off one or both of us before then we should absolutely be given the slot.

Even then just look at the fact that Saints Geelong have a Friday Night Game in a couple of weeks. 

 

Well that's a moot point as it's been announced back to back Friday nights

Edited by ucanchoose

Great result for us, a prime time slot also gives good promotion for one of our major sponsors in Tourism NT. It being at night means it will very likely be quite chilly, which you would imagine favours us, not to mention we have experience of playing the ground. 

I will get there at some point but sadly not next year.

Again we don't get any advantage from this game in NT as we play a northern interstate team used to these conditions.

Apart from Port & Adelaide we have only played the saints at NT (Uluru not Darwin)

Not actually correct as the last few games there have been very good conditions.  It’s not Darwin where the humidity has been an issue

It would be hot a slippery just like the Gabba.

It will be cold as balls. It's not being played in Darwin

ROUND 11

Friday, May 28
Western Bulldogs v Melbourne, Marvel Stadium, 7.50pm AEST

 

ITS ON!

Brilliant! 2 Friday night games in succession. Dees back in the limelight.

For round 11 who gets the Friday night?

Collingwood V Geelong - MCG

Richmond V Adelaide - MCG

West Coast V Essendon - Optus

Bulldogs V Melbourne - Marvel

Will they pick 2 new sides on the rise or fall into old habits and simply choose Richmond or Collingwood. 

surely its us and the Dogs

Does it get cold in Alice Springs? Never been there or NT. Desert state isnt it. Only know (lived)  Melbourne  and seen Syd, Surfers Paradise and Adelaide Casino. Lived in Bangkok last 21 years. I know Ayres Rock is no longer.

  • Demonland changed the title to Back to Back Blockbuster Friday Nights for the Dees

And this followed by Queens Birthday game.

Sponsors will be happy.  (so am I)

The Demons are BOX OFFICE!!

cant complain about the draw. Wins games and good stuff happens

This is actually a great result and hopefully sees the AFL move to flexible fixture in the future. There's no way they would have had us vs Bris in NT or vs Dogs on a Friday night when creating the fixture last year

Because Channel 7 will want Collingwood v Geelong. Those two teams could be 17th and 18th on the ladder (or 1st versus 18th) and it would still pull more viewers than Bulldogs v Melbourne as 1st and 2nd (or 2nd and 1st).

What is this sort of analysis doing on 'Land? Mods . . . please.

Ayers Rock (Uluru) is still there - you just can't climb it

Your memory is astounding @Bring-Back-Powell


Gee I hope us and the dogs keep winning and both go undefeated into that round 11 game. That would be epic 

LOL, "Back-to-back blockbusters", not "Back-to-back-to-back blockbusters" to include QB.

Not our fault!...

Was that Carlton game the "bruise free footy" game?

 

I don't normally drink on a school night... but when I do, I say things like.

SO. F*CKING. DESERVED!

I was quite shocked we didn't get one in this block...

Well done you bloody beautiful Deeeeeemons!

The floating fixture must stay IMO You then get rewarded for playing well instead of waiting 12 months

  • 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?

  • 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.
