    Great decision to bring milkshake back, he is playing great footy.!!!

     

    Melksham should have been dropped when he was (actually a lot earlier) but even I, one of his most vocal critics could see he was the type of player we needed back in the team.

    He’s making our forward line look a lot more dangerous.

    Any chance we can finish with more goals than behinds? Hasn’t happened since the Brisbane win.

    Oh and Melksham stays. I can’t think of anyone at the  club that would’ve snapped that goal deep in the pocket on the wrong side for most players.

    And people didn’t think Ben Brown should play in our best side. Lolx100

    In fairness, didn't is past tense and for a while he wasn't.

    But, as with Melks and ANB, all taken back tonight.

    Fritta had better PHFO though.  Especially if TMcD is fit next week.

    Melk like I've said on many occasions gives our forward line a different dimension he is a live wire who can do the freakish.

    Fritta having a very quiet night.

    Great third quarter. 

    That being said, the wind is howling down that end.

    Tighten up and play this out boys!

    Just asking - why is that worthy of comment?

    They look nothing alike. 

    Great quarter. Melksham justifying his place in the team with some handy crumbing goals. 

    Gawn doing some nice things in the ruck and Neal-Bullen doing some good thngs to. 

    Come on dees bring it home!!!

    I would say that Jackson has done well tonight. I would let him have a solid run NicNat. He can outleap him now, just needs to make sure his taps hit the target. Will struggle body on body at the throw ins.

    No doubt. That’s not why it’s a ridiculous comment. Gawn was huge that quarter.

    Umpiring was probably more on our favour that quarter.

    Great quarter with the wind. Exaclty what we needs from some of the players who’s spot in the side not locked in.

    Hate to see us put the cue in the rack and slow it down here but it’s what we have been doing all year.

    • 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.
