I can't see the Weid playing next week. Just not contributing.

    I feel numb. I sorta expected us to drop this so I’m not surprised. We look flat and uninspired. Our tackling and defensive pressure is non existent. Collingwood playing exactly how they want. Old Sidebottom giving us a footy lesson.

    First time for the season we’ve been behind at three quarter time. 

    We clearly lifted but yet again didn’t score enough from our ample inside 50s. 

    Let’s see if we spent all our tickets in that quarter or if we’ve got something left.

    Has he kicked a set shot this season?

    WHY DO WE ALWAYS KICK IT SO WIDE?!?!

    I think we're doing it deliberately today to find space. But that kick from Gawn into the pocket for Pickett was nonsense

    Oliver and Trac need to just play some basic footy. Weed let just get Brown in and leave him there. There is absolutely no physical presence. Zero

    Good lift in intensity that Q. Gawn was very good. 

    we will win this we need to look at that first half.

    its almost like we feel sorry for Buckley, want to give him a win to send him off. God I was hoping for a smashing like what they used to do to us. FFS

    Free kicks currently 20-10 our way. Might be a difficult last quarter when the umps see the count and start throwing around the evener-uppers.

    Still think we can win.

    So obviously a much better quarter, but for me we seem to have gone back to trying to do too much. Taking on tacklers when there is isn’t the space, Trac and Oliver have probably been the biggest offenders at this. 

    That said the players have definitely lifted, if we keep the intensity from that quarter going we should overrun them. Game is in the balance, first goal important.

    I would be shocked if we spent all our tickets on that quarter. We barely got going.

    Pull your [censored] finger out Demons. Playing lazy footy all day,second to the ball around the contest, no run off half back, no pressure inside 50. It's been a very frustrating performance today.

    Think its going down to the wire. Hopefully it goes our way, wpuld love to just get the win and get out of here.

    Hard to argue with you there considering we have a bye next week

  • Quote

    would Oliver and petracca just get the ball moving forward instead of trying to side step every bloody time and getting caught? Frustrating and costly. 

    Also, Tom McDonald, you're dead to me. 2 easy misses.

    At least the tempo was up that quarter but a few trying to do too much and a few who may as well not be out there, Just need to read the front of their MND Beanie and follow what it says on the front and we should still sneak home. Please play Jackson in ruck for the majority this quarter we just look better with him in there today,

    Agreed. If we escape with the 4 points we can bin this match and move on.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
