Jetta unfortunately looks cooked.

I was shocked that he came in...

    Backline and forward lines both struggling massively. Crowd transition out of defense is putting us under huge pressure. They always have 2-3 players waiting to rush it out.

    We also are badly missing Salem.

    They are playing well with their short kicks. 

    We have shown up though.

    Wow we got sliced open through the middle then. 

    If Salem is seriously injured, we can kiss the premiership goodbye. We look a hot mess down back. 

    If we could stick a tackle and keep a track of the matchups when running back we would be 3 goals up.

    May has had an awful game reading the incoming ball so far.

    Folks. I think we're in a game today. 

    Credit to the crows. they're taking the game on through the corridor.

    What really cheesed me off was the moment we lost a couple of centre clearances they scored. Nothing like how we’ve been lately defensively

    Can’t believe I’ve only got 3 beers left in the fridge. 
    Hurry up half time.

    I really do think the sun has been influencing a lot of that. 

     

    Credit to Adelaide, they have been bold. When they get the ball in their defence they move it quickly with short kicks and then get their handball running game going. I don’t know if we are allowing them to do it by being too loose but for me it looks too easy. 

    We had some very good chances to get some more goals but fluffed it, disappointing that Melksham couldn’t make the distance as he’s usually a better kick than that. 

    We’ve given up a good 2 very cheap goals, we’re in front but at 3 goals in front with 5min to go I would’ve hoped to be further in front at quarter time.

    • 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.
