Gutsy win by the Filth.  Elliot was superb.  Sidebottom, Pendles and Noble also solid.

I really don't get the eating their own on Buckley.   Took them to within a kick of a Premiership.  They were always going to come off the boil list wise after being thereabouts for so long.

This.

    As a result of that win, Collingwood jump from 16th on the ladder all the way up to .... 16th. 

    Let's keep them there.

    When someone is outside 50 metres and takes 30 second to take a shot with no chance of kicking it with a minute to go it a mockery. Totally kills the game.

    Alright, Collingwood has got their win out of the way and can dine out on bathwater all this week.

    I really hate the filth  but I agree with jaded in that there is some solutions to them winning this one before we play them. I would be looking for a comfortable win at the MCG but at that krappy little shizenhausen the SCG I am not so sure.

    Well the Crows have had a good week - $50,000 off their soft cap for behaving like arrogant d/heads and losing to the filth on their own dung heap. Guffaw!

    Good for Collingwood to win their grand final tonight. They look very pleased with themselves. Can’t wait to belt them next week

    They will be favorites now against us. they did beat the only team to beat us so logic should prevail....

    Again I say watching that insipid performance by the crows it's so embarrassing we lost to them. My god that keys player smashed us and in the final quarter he couldn't use it properly. 

    That last passage where they had to go forward they were handballing backwards. Not running through the centre. Also walker had a mare kicking 2-6. Where was that inaccuracy weeks ago?

    This. We could so easily be undefeated right now

    A lot of really nice indigenous jumpers this season but geez, you can’t go past ours for the pick of the crop.

    It was a flash in the pan. They happened to play out of their skin the same day we were off. And they still only managed to beat us by one point with help from the umpires. We've since beaten the teams in second and third so no point dwelling on it. We have plenty to look forward to whereas the Crows have played their grand final already.

    I would rather lose to a nothing team that won’t get anywhere near the 8, than lose to a top side in direct competition with us for a top 4 spot. 
    Losing to Adelaide is a blimp on the radar and nobody will remember it in September, nor would it matter. 
    Losing later in the season to Port or West Coast or Geelong would be far more costly.

    Essendon’s has so many colours but they’re all red. 50 shades of red.

    Bear in mind we weren't in the richest vein of form at the time, just hanging on in games. I choose to think the loss was the catalyst to kicking us back into gear for the 2 massive games that followed. Plus the 'undefeated' tag becomes a monkey on the back - while I hated losing the Adelaide game, as least we got a loss out of the way.

    That Andrew Phillips goal... did Mclachlan say “it’s a goal. His first. He’s equalled his career high.” ???? Maybe I imagined he said that. I hope I imagined he said that.

    • 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?

      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.
