Gillon again, with family-friendly rule-changes on the fly. I'm gonna pull this one up short. The original idea was to have a sub and two emergencies to round out our selections to 100 players. There's no need to have unnecessary emergencies listed though. But we'll keep the medical sub. That means just one or two selections left apiece, and a total of 92 top players.

    I think it looks like the following:

    87) Pickett (22nd pick)

    88) WD (22nd)

    89) WD (23rd)

    90) Picket (23rd)

    91) Skuit (22nd)

    92) Skuit (23rd)

    The final two up for @WERRIDEE (is that 23 in total? - let me know if there's been any further accounting errors)

    Stay tuned for your final selection @picket fence

    And then everyone should start preparing their pitches before we add final team-sheets and a poll. 

    Slagging off rival teams, players and recruitment approaches will be highly encouraged.

    Elliott Yeo is my sub. It says it all really my team is easily the best if I do say so myself.

    @WERRIDEE still has to remake his final selection in place of Brayshaw. If I was him I'd definitely be picking Harmes . . .

    You're right - I forgot to swap out our names on our player-pick swap. So I have one less pick and you one more - but mine comes first. You can keep Short though, but he's open to WERRIDEE also. So if he wants to take either Harmes or Short, you'll have to select again (at anytime) - if not, then you're set to go.

    With no conflict between WD and Picket, my final selection is Nat Jones. 

    Now I'll establish a new thread, with a poll, where you post your final teams and make a pitch. 

    Again. white-anting and trashing each others teams and pitches is fair game, and more than encouraged. 

    Stay tuned.

    New thread is up - post your teams and pitches boys and girls. And no need to play nice. I have 100 percent of the vote to date. So good luck to the rest of you.

    • 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.
