If our 4-peat involves 3 interstate clubs, I'll reluctantly take it.

    Hawthorn won theirs while the rest of the comp was hobbled by the compromised draft with the introduction of both GWS and GC IMO.
    Meanwhile they cherry picked clubs filling their needs with player looking for "success". 
    Found themselves in the right place at the right time.

     

     

    Exactly.. they had an easy run more then anyone.

    Brisbane did it harder then both. Should have had 4 in a row had the AFL not [censored] them over with the travel.

    Their dynasty [censored] all over Hawthorn and Richmond.

    Honestly this game is so poorly skilled. I’m having PTSD of Melbourne pre 2018.

    Brisbane are the best team I’ve ever seen in my life. They were unbelievable. Every single line was full of absolute stars

    Essendon 2000 were incredible. (washes mouth out with turpentine.) Not the same star power as Brissie 01-03 but a near-perfect machine. Curse them.

    Nup given up again. Saints get the lead then in the blink of an eye they're 3 goals down again. 

    They got Melbourne’d 😁


    It makes me irrationally angry to watch De Goey playing football. This scum should be in jail.

    Melbourne Victory'ed? Melbourne Storm'ed? Please do not associated Coll... I can't type it out ... that club with the mighty Demons in any way shape or form!

    That "deliberate" OOB shows (like in round 23 2021) that umpires have zero understanding of the game. Why would they, and it bounced in an off break 4 or 5 times.

    I cannot with St Kilda. Their ball use makes me so angry.

    Essendon cheated the salary cap in 2000.

    That was actually déjà vu!

    Richo said almost the same thing (about trying to keep it in) re Gussy’s deliberate in round 23

    Honestly, can’t recall seeing a team so bad at executing a handball as this Saints team

    You don't remember the Dees handballing to stationary team mates for 15 years straight? And missing that target.

    Well, at least we should be able to beat one of these teams when we play them.

    Sorry, having flashbacks.

    God this is shocking viewing but strangely entertaining. It's good to be premiers.

    We were woeful at everything, but tonight Saints handballing really has been horrendous

    Saints lost it as much as Colonwood won it.  

    Not much to get excited about either way, IMVHO.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
