    based on the first half you'd have to ask serious questions of brown, brayshaw, hunt, anb, harmes in particular

    i can't believe how badly our form has become for the last six, seven weeks

    absolute golden opportunity in 2021 being wasted

    Lacking composure again. The dogs are making us come at them and then forward running players like Bailey Smith are waltzing out of contests.

    Incredibly frustrating to watch.

    No doubt the dogs are getting a good run with umps too

     

    We are being umpired out of the top 4. Last week, and again tonight. HQ want Port and Brisbane top 4 and we are the unlucky ones.

    Brayshaw no prior tries to get rid of the ball free kick goal to Dogs. Umpire doesn't even know the rule.

    Dogs took their chances. We didn't. They're cleaner in possession where we fumble.

    Clarry immense, Trac and Kossie look sharp. Defensive can't really be faulted but too many others out for form

    We can still win this but it'll take a big effort and someone taking the responsibility to kick straight.

    No cutting edge in the forward line. Which team in this years finals would be scared of this forward setup? 

    Salem turning it over a fair bit tonight.

    We are dominating hit outs but not scoring from clearance at all.

    Langdons form has been scattered at best since he got concussed. I think we're missing his form from the first half of the season more than we realise.

    As usual dont take our chances. You cant have half efforts from players in these conditions (call out to Salem and Brayshaw). Happy to be second to contest and players generally not clean enough.

    Well, that will be remembered as the half of football when Ben Brown lost me as a fan. We really need to finish off our work. it's reminding me so much of our 2017-18 era where we worked incredibly hard and got no reward for it

    It's also hard to tell on the TV, but is anyone else thinking that Viney is supposed to be doing a negating role on their half backs and getting absolutely annihilated?

    15 seconds before, Smith threw the ball out of a tackle…..nothing. 

    Two set shots from 30m out to Brown in a big game and he chokes both times

    just not good enough. Deflates the whole side. Trac and Clarry working their [censored] off for nothing

    Thought we started to get the better of them in the second quarter then Brown misses a chance to bring us within 4. Killer when they convert afterwards.

    Yep I’m considering switching off,

    boring [censored] football. Can’t stand watching Umpiring when dogs are playing. 

     

    14-4 free kick count at half time. The club absolute needs to send a please explain the the AFL about the lack of free kicks paid for incorrect disposal/throwing.

    • 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.
