When the Dogga leaves

When Peter Bell speaks

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember the Ed Langdon trade

And then I don't feel so bad

And in retrospect, I also feel similar about the trade we did with Freo with Jesse Hogan effecticely for premiership full back Steve May (and possibly another first rounder we turned into Dogga or Kossie?).

    We got May and Sparrow for Hogan

    I care, I want Freo to finish stone cold motherless last in 2023 so that in addition to another flag we get the number one draft pick! 🤪🤪🤪

    Not that I'm bitter or anything, but I wouldn't mind seeing this a few times in weekly line-up:

    Freo

    In: Corbett

    Out: Jackson

    The most important thing right now would be that Luke and his family have a Merry Christmas, that's all.

    Freo finishing last would be nice - of course we'd all love to see that 

    But it won't be happening. I was terribly disappointed Jackson left. I have now come to terms with his leaving and feel we will actually be a better and more consistent team with Grundy as his replacement

    To me he is the biggest loser - he's walked away from a great team, a club with a huge amount of history and the opportunity to play alongside the best ruck and arguably the two best midfielders in the competition

    I still feel he will regret his decision in due course

    Does anyone know for certain what dopey is getting paid by Freo and how long his contract?

    I dont recall seeing anything in the press after they signed him up.

    They've made some shocking decisions recently i hope their form continues.

    Good luck to Jacko in Freo and I note other players who have given Freo (not just the team/ area)) the heavo...

    7 years !!  Thats a huge risk for a player thats barely started his career. Surely he must be on light coin for the first few years and then loaded up later.

    Oliver and Petracca didnt get that same deal until they had long finished their apprenticeship  in their mid twenties.

    Whenever I get a new smartphone, without fail the screen gets scratched inside the first year of having it.

    It might be the light in this waiting room but I can clearly see it while trying to read this thread.

    If anyone has any fixes PM me. It's not a deep scratch but is noticeable.

    I broke a shoelace last week :)

    Hate that, not the easiest thing to replace quickly.

    FWIW my Asics Kayano runners came with the worst shoe laces that knotted up all the time, undoing them was hell so I replaced them. Not putting up with inferior shoe laces..

    Why not…he is in Bali for Xmas with his good mate Trey Ruscoe, from the Pies. I guess family time can wait until the season starts. Real stench of Jessie Hogan about where this is all heading 🤪 welcome to the deathride, Dogga

    yeah,  Jacko fed us alot of BS in the end. Kept the club in limbo all season and shot through at end of season after playing bog ordinary.

    im certainly not in his camp like alot of other  posters here.

    I’m genuinely staggered that Jackson’s in Bali at the moment.

    Thought he’d be spending  every minute of every day with Mum and Dad to make up for lost time…

    And I would say Melbourne supporters will show Luke Jackson the level of fondness that Dogs supporters show towards Jake Stringer.

    I.e - not a great deal.

    • 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.
