Don't mind this at all.

 

 

Agreed, good cover and also seemed to be loving life as a Dee.

Majak Dawn... Sounds like me on Sunday morning!

Absolutely fine with this.

Remember as well that he didn’t really have a preseason this year.

While I don’t see him playing the full 22 games next year, I’d like to see him get some games in the ones.


Good insurance policy, and our list turnover is already pretty much sorted with 2 retirements, 4 delistings and 1 “we recommend looking elsewhere”. You’d have to think we’re unlikely to get as lucky with injuries to talls as we did this year, where other than Tommo, we hardly had one. Happy with this.

Was playing well when the VFL season was underway, and can cover ruck, key forward, or key back. Sensible decision.

 

Good 3rd string back up for one more year. Can now draft a young 4th option with no pressure on them to play.

Did he ever get suspended for belting Cox?

 

Him playing means that Gawn is injured but good on him that he is happy with that role.

Considering the struggles he's had to endure in the past, I must say the highlight of the celebrations was seeing Majak with the biggest smile being so happy for the boys.

 

Hope to see him getting a game next season. Good luck to him.


Wasnt a big fan of picking him up as I couldnt see him ever playing a senior game, but he's fitted in well and seems to be a well liked figure around the club so Ive changed my mind, no harm giving him another season as a backup.

anyone heard any news re this?

Looking forward to seeing him play a few senior games for the Demons next year in 2022.

Due to his versatility he can still impact games as a ruckman, defender or a forward. Majak Daw is the ideal utility player.

Ideally, thanks to him signing, he could also co-opt P.M. Dawn to play a few pre match gigs for us once COVID restrictions are lifted. 😉

The new Pedersen!

Yes.. he got one week.

It was in a scratch match so perhaps it can be served in another scratch match if it hasn't already been done.

Perhaps the AFL could use its discretion after the VFL season from hell.

PS the article talks about a Round 23 scratch match that he was going to be excluded from so perhaps he has served the suspension

Majak, with a full pre-season under the belt, with some confidence-boosting training displays and focus, could well contribute much to our line-up. He is - imo - well worth a go and may well shine in our improved culture and team spirit.

  • 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?

  • 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.
