Getting ugly.  
Needs a couple of goals urgently. 

How often does Maxy tap it to their forward and concede a goal. Ridiculous

Lions can win the flag this year. Make no mistake about it. They are sensational. 

I beg to differ. Put them on the MCG and their record is [censored] poor.

    ? Entries are too shallow - get the ball in deeper than 40+ meters out more often and to a target.

    ? Neither Kossie or Spargo can make the distance (accurately) from 40 or more which is a real worry

    ? Mids are too close to the ball up area.. need a few more on the outer ring

    ? The inside mids, aside from Clarry on a few occasions, need to get moving at the ball up.  Far too stationary.

    ? Maxy if you can't see an obvious red & blue guernsey at your feet thump it clear towards our goals when competing up the line.

    ? Please close down the forward half zone.  Too much room / time being given to the Lions HBs.

    ? T-Mac get into the game higher up pls and intercept.

    ? Weid & LJ put some Grippo on pls. 

    ? Weid stop running under the ball so often.  Not AFL standard here and you've had 4 seasons to get this right now.

    So we come out, give away a dumb free and then give away a dumb goal.

    Great start.

     

    Bears seem allowed 2x the time of ours to get rid of it. 
     

    Spargo in the back ignored

    • 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.
