Be prepared to potentially take that back one the hit out to advantage stats are out.

Ok but totally biased against Viney.  Hit up Brown for a goal. Hit up Kozzy for a goal.  Kicked super goal in the third. 
Nine tackles. At the contest.

“Very good game”.

Agree Viney average

Gawn no idea of where his mids are clueless ruckwork

Oliver..... sensational

Fritsch Dermie was right

Gawn had 16 (from 56, so 28.6%)

English had 3 from 14 (21.4%).

Jackson 3, McDonald 2.

Thanks mate!

Where'd you find them btw?


Going on about umpiring like Essendon fans ignores the fact that we still should have run over the top of them but froze and fell to bits against a side one player down on the bench.

Agree with most but not with Viney or Hunt both tried extremely hard and and we’re in our best.

Gawn - Dominated hitouts department

Pickett - Costly early miss

Brown - Costly 2 behinds (and 1 on the full)

Fritsch - Above the knee

Viney - Better than r18

Petracca - Clangers superseded brilliance

McDonald - Lose more weight? (lol)

Oliver - Possible 2 votes

Hunt - 611 metres gained!

Neal-Bullen - Stop getting smothered

May - Some dumb FA's

Salem - Losing his AA 

Harmes - Didn't notice him

Jackson - Rising star slider

Lever - Our best defender

Spargo - Pressuring has declined

Brayshaw - Just a game

Hibberd - Not our worst

Langdon - Season low numbers

Jordon - costly dropped mark

Rivers - rookie soldiering on

Petty - always seems unlucky

Umpiring: A please explain

Disagree with many

trac was very good

petty and Rivers solid

hunt was good

Browns first half was poor but he did show signs in the second. But the damage was done by then

There’s no way the game has passed Viney, proved again what he will do for the club, was in and under all night.

As I said during the week, the umpires will destroy our game chances, once again, through incorrect use of the whistle (in any way that they 'can get away with'). The attempt is made in every game the MFC plays.

We were In it all night. Midfield matched the dogs, Gawn dominant. 

We were wasteful in attack, again, they were not. 

We missed several gettable shots, they did not.

We failed to take our difficult chances, they did not. 

We got a rough ride from the umpires, they did not. 

Game over...

What's most frustrating is not losing a game like that it's burning points against the crows, giants, pies and Hawks

Agree - had our chances, can';t kick straight.  BBB first two "attempts" were actually pathetic.

It is inconceivable that WBD could break the rules only 11 times in 350 contests.

It really does feel like a syndicated, 'old boys' conspiratory against the Dees, that many amongst us cannot for some reason accept or acknowledge. It has pressed us, for years; it is still pressing us after we have - as a footy club - re-organised and re-structured against the odds and expectations of 'the rest of them'. We live in hope, as a consequence. Will our Board ever do something about it? Nearly all of the consequences of last night's footy match against the Doggies were in the hands of the umpires and were so delivered across the game without sanction, excepting of course those few that were too blatant to be ignored. However, the power of the whistle applied and re-applied to quell the eveness of the game that would lead to a different end result.

 

Edited by Deemania since 56

Player A,B,C,D, etc:   didn't handle conditions.

Lots of dumb kicks

Kicking straight into an opponent who earned a 'smother' stat without even waving their arms around - when does that get fun?

  • 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.

  • 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.
