If we think they aren’t going to keep taking us on through the middle then we’d be crazy. 

 

 Fritta sadly not impacting.

Jordan and Nibbler Ditto. Nibbler is such a slow starter. 

Melksham is looking goid.

But Langdon is on fire.

Trac back to his best.

We are missing Salem already but Gus has lifted.

Six goals each quarter and Ill be happy.

That is the blueprint of how to beat us - through the corridor - short kicks and passes. Need to respond to this in game and correct.

    If Adelaide can slice through us like that imagine what the Bulldogs could do. But I’ll back us to tighten up from here.

    We are doing alright when we have the ball. Good accuracy, taking contested marks, tackling well, though a few have dropped off, getting our on ballers working.

    Well done Melky, Langdon, Max, Jackson, Tracc, Rivers.

    Leaking goals for the rare times this season.

    Has the Crows found one of our weaknesses as they go quickly through the centre.

    Keep at it Dees

    Our highest first quarter score, apparently. This season.

    What wasn’t spoken about by the commentators then was the strength from McDonald. Set it all up.

    80s rock with Go West -  We Close our Eyes followed by Bob Sinclair playing in the pub here over the game and it's infinitely better than listening to Ricciuto. 

    Bounced the ball while tackled. Holding the ball. No call.

    • 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?

      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.
