can they start paying Daniher pushing Jackson in the back over and over. Oliver lift!

Lever got penalised for hands in the back against the Crows & the eel gets away with it. WTF?

 
 

half time 

x losing all the key stats  x contested possessions x losing centre clearances x tackling 

x Hunt Anb Melksham Pickett all are giving us nothing. 10 possessions in total. Not good enough 

x forwards are not effective. LJ lucky crumbing goal. Why kick to pockets. 
x energy is down 

x Trac is trying but getting caught and his turnovers going into fwd50 were poor 

x Salem looks lost tonight (sore?) Was our VIP in the 1st nine rounds imv 

x umps are crap. Giving lions the 50/50s

x James brayshaw loves the lions. Mitch Robinson. He almost creams himself. 
 

but only 3 goals down. Could be 6-7 goals behind. Inside 50s - 18 to 32. 
 

✅Gawn. Lever. Brayshaw. 


Oliver can be incredible with his hands. That's exactly what we need more of.

 

The way BT pronounces Salem’s name makes me irrationally furious.


QB moved. I hate this state right now. I'll apologise for saying that later

2 goals to fritsch

 

Get your hand off it. 1 was gifted to him in the goal square

He's been useless. Watch the game

Calm down. I am watching the game.
Limited chances. He has done his job. Top goal scorer like usual. Get it in there more and he’ll kick more

    Spotted Weid’s. Gave a high 5 to TMAC, his best play all night.

    Are they just standing him Behind a goal post?


    Feels like the first unpressured mistake they’ve made all game. And should’ve resulted in a goal.

    We were all very right to get excited by Kozzie - and still are - but in the last few matches a little reality has started to kick in. He’s a kid who’s still finding his way (and boy, won’t he). But I’ve noticed I don’t get the same rush of anticipation when he gets near the ball. Just hoping he does something good with it. 

    Not expected him to kick 4-5 goals but seems to be fumbling and running over the footy. His miss from 30 metres out hurt after our best run. 
     

    Umps not giving him much even when he’s held and pushed and tripped.

    • 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.
