Did anyone else notice that Brayshaw let this slip in the post match interview? Seems like its almost a done deal…

Yeah I did but thought it was just a slip up until the news today

    To be fair, we will comfortably account for the dogs if the current pattern continues.

    We are so bloody schizophrenic.

    More like bipolar, up and then down.

    Schizophrenia is living in delusional states, creating non realities. Which, is not true, we are a good side and have proven our credentials with some great wins.  We have not imagined them.

    Reality is, we are a hard side to beat.

    Though, our problems are in our head, we need mental strength and agility

    Well that sucks. I have been hanging to watch the dogs game, especially after missing the earlier game. We’ll still be lockdown next weekend I’d say

    PD's (personality disorders), are a degree of associated problems, we all exhibit some behaviour of each. So it comes down to how dysfunctional we are, not the behaviour.  

    I would suggest OCD (obsessive, compulsive disorder), is a more likely diagnosis within this threads topic and Demonlanders.  

    Look how we get thrown out by change to the schedule and our weekly rituals during the season for our march to the grail.

    Switching round 19 and 20 games still has a few border closure and exemption issues. 

    Just let us play GCS next week in Qld!!  If Brisb can come and go to Melb to play the Hawks next week then we can come and go to Qld to play GCS. 

    Have a horrible feeling the AFL is hell bent on us playing in Darwin.

    I don't get why we have to move games around? Just play them where they can be played, we will end up being screwed having to travel to Darwin then Perth in consecutive weeks ?

    I think we might be in for a beating, worse luck.

    I don’t understand this thinking. So if we played them in two weeks we could beat them but playing them next week means we lose? We aren’t carrying significant injuries. Nothing will be different next week to the week after, except for perhaps a small-ish crowd.

    Well, if they do play this week, and limit the crowd to 25,000 then 80% need to be Dees fans, as it is our home game!

    You'd hope that next season the mathematical genius who develops the AFL Fixture might let each team play each other once before any repeat games are scheduled.  That way, if the season needs to be shortened it can be done fairly.  I've never understood why we play some sides twice before we complete a match against all sides.

    They will tackle and hunt us like no tomorrow. 

    Our ball movement will be a thing of beauty.

    Our ability to get the ball will hurt anyone in the way.

    Fight, get it and control it.

    They will chase us all day.

    Did we have a VFL match this weekend?

    no... cancelled unfortunately

    Ironically Sydney and GWS seconds played yesterday and 3 from each team had to go around again today due to the covid exposures at the rugby.

    I believe there was a practice game with a few Victorian clubs and we were involved as well. Not sure who played.

    I just hope the boys come to Perf to play and smash the Eagles.

    My only game I can attend all year.

    I hope, however unlikely, that the AFL put some thought into our finishing with three away games in a row, with two of those on opposite sides of the country. I’m happy to play the teams, a rethink of the venues is warranted.

    I will eat my hat if we are allowed crowds at games in Victoria in the next 2-3 weeks. Given the spread at the MCG the argument to allow crowds becomes ever harder to make while we still have cases and while NSW is still a clusterfudge.

    • 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.
