If Langdon is ok, no change. Weid took his chances and even melk laid a tackle or two.

    So it was Langdon?   Subbed off in the dying minutes?  

    IF so then they must surely think has a 2 week injury.

    Would be a huge out.  Who would replace him on a wing?  Maybe Hunt??

    But as to changes -  Melksham mostly bog ordinary but it takes a lot to have him dropped.

     

    looked like a dislocated finger? maybe, if i was to guess

    changes: 

    OUT: Hunt

    IN: Bowey/Lockhart

    its tight for spots you have to play well to stay in. and you'd think we're ok for finals from here so why not see what one of these boys have got in them. weid would have been in the gun first half but got on the end of a few later on

    Hunt is part of the back 6 that is absolutely humming and he gave JJ from the dogs an absolute bath tonight

    We just played our most complete game of the season against a team most predicted to beat us, on a ground they dont lose at.

    So, pending Langdon... NO CHANGE!

    Absolutely.  Hunt was also important.  Played his role.

    A few struggled at times (Weideman, Jackson, Hunt, Melksham) but no one played so badly to warrant being dropped IMO.

    No change unless injury.

    (if Langdon's out next week vs Brisbane that will hurt, big time).

    jj's not a forward, just been shoved there to fit him in, don't think he really challenged hunt to defend him at all. hunt definitely didnt do anything the other two boys couldn't do and on current form i'd back them to offer more offensively this week. if it doesn't pay off in a couple weeks theres always the option to reverse it. but we need to keep the senior boys accountable and show the guys below that if you're in form we will reward you

    JJ has been going very well

    Out: Weid, Langdon (if injured)
    In: B.Brown, Baker

    In some ways I'd like to keep Weid in to build his confidence, but at the same time it's important to drive standards, and Brown deserves a chance to build confidence in the 1s as well. Looking forward, Viney comes into this team but I have no idea at who's expense.

    No change unless Viney is ok, but I have no idea who to drop to let him in.

    Not convinced by the Wied, but no changes.

    agree to disagree ?, would be lucky to make their full strength side imo when dunkley, treloar, vandemeer, mclean, wood are fit

    Id drop weed.

    But I admit I may not be very objective.

    Backed the dees over 39 points.

    He shanked a shot to make it 42 points. Then his next two kicks, both of which should have set up scoring shots, were dead set clangers.

    Id still drop him. One tackle. And 10 half jogs and coraaling.

    Four possessions is rubbish.

    Sure 3 goals, but 2 were gifts. And he dropped mutiple marks that he should have swallowed

    • 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.

    • 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.
