And what Sparrow or ANB are any better?

Your having a [censored] laugh... at least they know how to tackle. 

 

Why are we still leading/kicking to the pocket when we're 3+ goals down??

    He never gets these free kicks, it’s actually becoming an issue.

    Hipwood is just trying to block in every marking contest. Someone has to make the umpires aware of it. It’s killing us.

    Gotta reset real fast. Hard tag on Neale right now. Need to clear the 50. Tmac needs to push up to the wings so we can maybe take a contested mark. 
    This game is going to be over real fast if we don’t wake up.

    They are not why we can’t win a clearance or take a contested mark. It’s just ignoring the obvious problems to blame the umpires. 

    Itd be worth a doctorate thesis to analyze the confidence levels after receiving unfair treatment from perceived to be unbiased adjudicators.
    Agree we are playing [censored], but it’s easy to go into your shell when it feels like the worlds against you.

    I must be watching another game. ANB and Sparrow are totally useless. Wouldn't make Norths team and yet we carry them 

    Sam Weideman 1 disposal, Melksham 2 disposals and Hunt 2 disposals in a half of footy.

    Absolute disgrace. I'm off Weideman. He's [censored] useless.

    Brisbane’s talls dominating all around the ground. Tommy and weid need to forget that first half and rebound quickly.

    4 to 10 (Brisbane’s way) centre clearances and 14 to 22 (Brisbane’s way) clearances.

    That’s the issue right there.

    Yep smashing us out of the middle and we can't transition out of defence. Clarry needs to lift big 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.

      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.
