Half time analysis: we are doing well but poor goal kicking is letting them back in it. And of course nice cheating umpiring. 
 

May on one leg is a real real issue. Our backline will not cope if Geelong get going in the middle.

At least we are 29 up and not down, cats will have confidence now needs to be over by 3 quarter time 

 

Need to kick straight and get back on top in the middle and we have this

Last 5 mins bad

Agree. 

fantastic first half but poor last 5 minutes

38 points up then 3 misses !!! 


Typical give up a goal before 1/2 time. This is not over. 

Goody reset them.

A great 1st half though. At the start I'd take a 29 point lead

 

 

 

Danger should miss time (next year) for that dive. Cost us a goal, too. Filthy.

 

Win or lose I am so unbelievably proud of Jack Viney. What a game. Absolute finals footy efforts.

Hope Dangerflop is proud of himself with that effort.

No idea how a two hander full in the back in a marking contest is ok, but a couple of hands placed in the side in a ground ball contest is a free.

9.6 is not so bad

5.1 is 1 shot away from perfect

Decent start. Very positive. Will need to keep the pressure up and we should be OK. But that’s conditional!

Geelong look tired. 

We got this.

Centre bounce clearances are a bit of a worry. We've certainly learnt from our round 23 mistakes, but there's still too much space for my liking.

Great 1st half.
Break came at a good time.
Time to Re-set and bury these fools.


✅Viney 

✅ Gawn 

✅ tackling 

x costly Goalkicking misses Trac And Fritsch were 80/20 chances 

🤮umps - gifts for cats

Great first half, our kicking for goal was awesome, then we fell back to kicking points. Everyone is doing their job, just keep it going dees.


Need a better second half from Oliver. He’s been quiet by his standards. 

Last 2 goals costly kept them in the game. C'mon Dees one half left we can do it!

Fritsch was the worst. 30m dead in front, he kicks it game over, they get 2 and think they have a sniff. I can't stand how Dangermouse can dive and get a free and I dislike Hawkins so much.

Viney - epic.

Lat 5  minutes - tired

May - get him off

Danger - should be fined for staging

Gawn is continually being held - no frees

Me - loving this but nervous.

  • 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.
